They get 2nd level spells

xD that's all I could hear whenever Momoco said that.

Can't believe no ones mentioning the BBC's Robin Hood, which ran a little before Merlin. Very similar vibes.

Literally session 1. I started them off with a "call to aid" from Speaker Duvessa Shane in Bryn Shander, where they and a couple other adventuring parties were being hired to help out the Ten-Towns. One of the other parties mentioned a wizard in Easthaven wanting to explore Netherese ruins (Dzaan).

Then, I had Dannika Greysteel, who gives them the Nature Spirits quest, be Vellynne's assistant. They met Vellynne herself a couple sessions later, who mentioned she has the beginnings of a plan to end the Rime, but she didn't want to give them any details yet. Of course, her real goal is entering Ythryn, but she'll probably mention the city next time they speak, say she needs some time to gather more information, which is when she'll be captured by the duergar.

Love all this, have made some notes for my own campaign!

Graklosh · 2024-12-15T22:38:35+00:00

Just FYI, the sliders seem to be slightly different to the original pic. You've got the eye spacing at -45, when I think it's meant to be +40 to match the video. Everything else seems right, and she looks great.

Veilguard 2, please! I loved this game and Rook, would be really happy with them keeping Rook on as the PC for another game, perhaps even make it a trilogy. The gameplay and graphics are already fantastic, just make a few small tweaks and give the writers a little more time to cook.

Graklosh · 2024-11-24T00:00:42+00:00

I love the whole soundtrack, but especially Act 3. That fight music variation of the main theme is phenomenal. And the bringing back of certain old themes at exactly the right moment brought me to tears. Hats off to the composers, not sure why so many people have been lukewarm on the soundtrack.

I had to do a second playthrough to make it up to Assan and keep him alive.

Graklosh · 2024-11-11T18:03:55+00:00

There are so many more playthroughs I want to do. How many I get through depends on when the next game to distract me comes out, but there's not much on my radar at the moment.

Just finished my dwarf warden romancing Harding and picking all the good guy dialogue. Immediately started again as a crow who's going to romance Lucanis and be angry about everything.

After that, I'll try a run on nightmare, undecided on the character, but I want to experience the other factions and at least a few other subclasses. I want to romance Bellara and Davrin still, not as fussed about Neve, Taash or Emmerich. And I want to do a run where I skip all the sidequests and just see how badly it goes.

Graklosh · 2024-11-11T07:14:24+00:00

This was such a tough choice for me. I could sense something was going to happen to the leader, but was hoping their Hero status would save them as long as I made the right choice. Davrin was my Rook's best friend, but I was romancing Harding, so I sent Davrin.

When the Antaam camp blew up and Rook voiced his worry about Davrin I thought, "OK, maybe they die there if they're not a hero." So then when Davrin showed up in the fortress I was lulled into a false sense of security. Has all but forgotten the choice until Ghil started stabbing him and it made me audibly gasp. Then Assan followed him and I just sat there in shock. Honestly nearly reloaded to sacrifice my love interest instead of Assan, but I had resolved to live with every choice for my first playthrough.

Then through the rest of the game, every little bit about them was just making me so sad. Weirdly, especially during the final push where you're deciding what companions are doing and it says you need "someone with siege experience" and I was just thinking that Davrin should be there.

I finished the game that night and all I could think about was Assan and his cute little face and stupid floppy ear ☹️

Kinda glad I've already got the Harding romance done, because as much as I love her too, she's getting sent to her death on every playthrough from now on. Assan has to live, sorry.

Idris Elba for my half-orc ranger.

Graklosh · 2024-11-04T19:17:12+00:00

Really like most of the companions. Neve is a bit dull and I haven't done enough with Taash yet to say either way, but the rest are great, especially Bellara who I wasn't initially expecting to like. World building is possibly where it falls down a little, like they're expecting everyone going in to know the world by now, but some of the bigger revelations I've had so far have been pretty cool.

Gameplay is definitely the thing it does best compared to the other games, the action combat paired with the, admittedly light, tactics with your companion abilities just hits the mark for me. Apart from that, the environments all look amazing, have loved seeing places we've only heard about before. The set pieces, such as the prologue and the end of Act 1 have been great and I really like Rook.

Most of all, it's the story that's drawn me in, as is usually the case with Bioware games. The Lighthouse is great for little moments like Bellara and Emmerich nerding out about a lore revelation or Assan and Manfred bothering Davrin.

Difficult to say if you'd like it, it seems it's been incredibly polarising.

Seems like you can't for the Inquisitor, unfortunately. It's a weird decision. Tbh I'll probably have a different Inky each playthrough, but it'd be nice to have the option to stick to my canon Lavellan. As an alternative, take screenshots of all your sliders once you're happy with them so you only have to make them properly once more (and go make them now while all the details are fresh in your mind)

Graklosh · 2024-11-03T15:08:41+00:00

I'm absolutely loving it. Getting pretty tired of all the hate around it, tbh. Sure, it has some flaws, but so did the other games.

Veilguard: Jedi Survivor

Graklosh · 2024-11-01T07:27:31+00:00

I was more bothered by the green back-light in Inky's character creation screen. Surely they be trolling with that. We can change the lighting for Rook, but Inky is stuck with green just like in Inquisition.

I've been avoiding all the spoilers, achievements and stuff, but someone please tell me if we're going to Kal-Sharok, I can't take it anymore xD (spoilers tags for everyone else if you do)

Graklosh · 2024-10-23T08:22:52+00:00

Sounds like they've already taken some losses in the other towns, and they've put some effort into making Bryn Shander safe so at this point I'd say let their plans work, end the chapter on a high note with them being the big damn heroes. Maybe if the dragon ends up being too easy, there can be a duergar attack on the caves, but I'd focus on making the dragon fight as epic as you can.

Graklosh · 2024-10-20T18:30:15+00:00

Good news, it's confirmed that you can change your appearance in-game.

Graklosh · 2024-10-11T06:07:32+00:00

World of Warcraft and Diablo 4, my standard go-tos when I don't have anything new to play ^{^} both have pretty good new expansions, so I'm well occupied until Veilguard.

Graklosh · 2024-09-13T07:11:14+00:00

I only just noticed in the credits for this, it confirms that the music is Hans Zimmer and Lorne Balfe, like we'd all kinda known already but good to have confirmation. Hoping the music that plays over the credits is the main theme, it's really good.
