How dare you rip apart my statements with Logic? How very much dare you?

The brain puzzle in the Necrotic Laboratory is really not designed for a controller. And the game doesn't tell you how to enter free cursor mode (it's L3, by the way).

 

[Caldwin]

There's a free cursor mode?

Me, the other day: Y'know, these characters are mostly pretty great, but the party could use some himbo energy.

Me now: Okay, Minsc, take it back a notch.

I just got a notification from Larien that the Deluxe Editions are starting to ship. Not gonna lie, I completely forgot I preordered this.

What's the context for the line about eating dirt? Because it sounds more like a line from some TV cartoon that looks like that drawing than something from a AAA game.

 

[Caldwin]

I think it's Karlach IIRC. Whenever you tell one of your team mates to stay at camp they'll say something grouchy. Karlach's something along the lines of "I'll be here, eating dirt or something."

 

[Spin-Out]

tbh that line sounds like something from an actual d&d session

This finally arrived. The contents are too plentiful and large for me to set up a decent picture, but it's a very nice set. It's really too bad I've long since moved on from playing this.

That's one unfortunate thing about video games compared to movies. By the time you decide you're a superfan and want an expensive "collector's edition", you inevitably already own the game, possibly in a format that can't even be resold. Some publishers have dealt with this by offering one that doesn't actually have a copy of the game in it. Other times they just count on those superfans buying the sequel and just offer a collector's edition of that on launch day. (Which probably would have worked on me if I weren't a cheapskate, as I bought BioShock 2 despite its negative press based largely on feeling like the $5 I'd paid in a Steam sale for the original wasn't enough.)

I decided to pick this back up the other day with my tiefling character. I went through Shar'd Gauntlet, protected Halsin's portal, reunited the kid with himself and just now killed Thorm.

It's nice getting to Act 3 with Lae'Zel still alive. Not sure if I like Shadowhearts romance or Karlach's better. But I can't wait to travel with her to Avernus instead of having to turn her into an illithid to save her.

Yeah, I kinda got sucked back in.

Hey, soldier!

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

I need details.

Just a plush I found on Amazon.

So, officially vetted mods are now available on the PS5 version of the game. Went browsing through them today.

Updated appearances with new hair options, sure, why not.

EXP multipliers to level up stupidly fast, not unexpected, could be useful on repeat playthroughs if you just want to get to the story faster.

New classes and subclasses, neat, shake things up.

Turn Raphael's human disguise into a gnome, bit silly but why not.

Change Withers' name to Bone Daddy.

......Uh.

Still waiting for my playable Kobolds.
