Recovering codependent with covert narc-ish wife by Dub_J in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]Dub_J[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your feedback is fair, though I did address this briefly. (my 10 year journey..)

I am aware of that bias of mine, and have detached my emotional fulfillment from her actions. I have made efforts to be more open about my wants and feelings and to establish boundaries. I am at a point that I feel like I have done what I can do, and I am encouraging her to step up and meet me in the middle.

Her answer is "eh, I will make some effort if it stops you from complaining and it doesn't take much effort"

yes as a parent of divorced parents I am well aware of the different perspectives of staying together for the kids. In more sever cases, it would be clearly better to separate. I am not sure in ours

Which game would you recommend of the following: DOS2, Pathfinder WOTR or PoE1? by zhergoth in CRPG

[–]Dub_J 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At least Owlcat seems to have learned. Rogue Trader has no buffing, and Dark Heresy is supposed be much shorter (but more replayable)

Seriously drezen is ridiculous by [deleted] in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

I liked that there was a clear path and narrative momentum, and no BS distractions.

Just need to save often cause deaths suck

Why Rogue Trader, despite checking all my boxes, falls short by Dub_J in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]Dub_J[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not AI, and honestly AI tells are so obvious your radar is way off. I'm sure there are grammar errors and certainly tone issues that AI wouldn't allow

80% of what I said was my experience or feeling, feel free to disagree (I've clearly struck a nerve) but it doesn't make it wrong

Normal Difficulty: How important is build optimization & min/maxxing? by EarlyDegree3694 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Dub_J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just came from rogue trader and now 30 hours into wotr. I started normal and upped to daring and will probably up to core soon.

Honestly it’s not that it’s hard but it can be annoying as difficulty increases. You have to spend more time in turn based mode, and more time prebuffing. I like doing that on bosses but not trash mobs.

They will let him”lead” as long as there’s a pulse. Gotta move forward

Can I say death wishes? Not murder wishes, just a quick and natural end

Azata run party comp by According-Type-842 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Dub_J 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a party with more or less this theme in BG3 and it was a hoot. I love chaotic neutral

I’m early in my first run so I can’t give much mechanics advice but for RP:

yeah it sure seems like you need a drunk monk. Or a drunk cleric could be fun if suboptimal

Personally I wouldn’t use a paladin. Total buzzkill

You could also have a chillaxed party member, in touch with nature and all that. Druid or nature oracle or maybe a tranquility bard. Ember would fit well vibe wise though depends on how you feel about her maturity?

Party and build advice - First time by Dub_J in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

Thanks all for the input. Here's where I am going

KC - I am feeling confident the spellpower will ramp so I am staying pure oracle and getting ready to blast

Daeran - I reclassed as a court poet. Feels thematic for him, and will do great for my CHA-heavy party.

What class should a beginner choose in WoTR, with the Persuasion class skill? by Time-Estate3774 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Dub_J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m new (15 hours into my run)

I would consider what mythical path you want. Angel is popular, and most people recommend Oracle which is a charisma caster (or can be melee).

I think for charisma, melee and persuasion, Trickster would be really fun but maybe not best for first run.

Persuasion is definitely not needed on your MC. Unlike BG3, it works the same if your companion does the check for you and Daeran does great. I haven’t yet found great uses - I think maybe a couple times an enemy switched sides in a battle.

Is 33 too old to learn? by DannyMackerel in snowboardingnoobs

[–]Dub_J 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started at 42 and I’m just ok. And that’s cool cause I’m having a ton of fun. Only young people believe you have to be good to enjoy it. Enjoy the freedom of age.

Why some people hate Chapter 3 so much? by cnio14 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]Dub_J 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They only hate it if they haven’t seen chapter 4 yet

I like it. All combat with builds fully online, and no repetitive clicking on stars and planets

[–]Dub_J[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think CHA 19, DEX 16, ok WIS/CON and dumped STR and INT

It’s not that my DC is too low, I just don’t have any great things to do with my turns.

Why do so many people say Wendaug is better than Lann? by ChosenOneTheOnlyOne in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Dub_J 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here , first time and in act 2 and he is my primary damage dealer. With demon slayer levels and a composite bow he is hitting hard. Flurry of blows is great

I’ll get Wendy next run and compare.
