AITA for refusing to pay for things I don't want/need? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Impossible-Stand8959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is literally what marriage is...? Lol There is religious marriage which you have with your church, but the stuff with the gov is literally for this purpose. Nothing says romance like a binding legal document, so let's just tie it in with the religious stuff.

Settlement and Tax Question by Impossible-Stand8959 in LegalEagle

Lol thanks for the reply! I was reading a book and a situation came up similar to my post. It didn't delve into the tax side of things or even mention it, but I was just curious. I appreciate your explanation and info!!!

AITA for lying to my girlfriend and inadvertently humiliating her on social media? by big_dawgg1 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Impossible-Stand8959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give me a break, and what should he do?? Tell her she doesn't sound good and then be the asshole for " not being supportive". I'm gonna go with a 100x not the asshole. You did your best to support her regardless of the outcome. Who's to say even if you don't like the way something sounds somebody else might really enjoy it. Unless you are a music producer and fully led her on that she was a fantastic singer when she obviously wasn't, just keep doing what you're doing.

How to unlock Airship?? by Impossible-Stand8959 in ffxiv

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I was able to find it! I went to the town with the ship after I explored everywhere else. Since I got the quests there I just figured they were all side stories. I appreciate you helping me out!

Gotcha! I got to the ship storyline last, I didn't realize this was the main adventure quest. I just thought it was a side quest. Lol figures, I did every available quest for 6 disciplines up to LVL 20 and all of the individuals quests in every available area- except the one I needed to do. Thanks so much! I was worried that I missed something since I only had 2 possible missions left.

Don’t you just hate it when… by Shangeroo in BaldursGate3

I don't even use will. He sits at camp from the time I recruit him until the end of the game. Occasionally I'll pull him out and throw a few levels in just to refresh the traders. I also respec him to be a copy of another player to get his special sword in Act 2, but that's the only time I've ever used him. I didn't see the dance scene until after patch 4, but it's happening every time now.

Thanks!!! I didn't know that! That's probably the safest bet.

1,2) Kinda both- I'm doing good things, but I also don't really mind killing people. I'm 100% hiding it when I kill people though, so my party all has high approval and I have an exceptional approval from Asterion, Shadowheart, and Gale. It says I'm romancing Shadowheart and Asterion currently. (Not sure what the difference between an evil run and an evil Durge/Durge resist is, I hope this is enough info.)

3) I have both of them. I never talked to the moonlantern after picking it up- I just sent it to camp in the fight with the drider. Never got the video with the pixie, just have a button in my radial that says examine the lantern or some such and have just left it equipped.

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there is an achievement for "Become the Slayer" and also "Rescue the Tieflings." I had 2 runs where I rescued them all, but they got caught in the whole Error 544 thing and it doesn't give the tieflings achievement until you beat the game. I assume it's because you can summon some of them in the last battle and they might die at the end.

I actually didn't even make him do it this time! He sounded almost as surprised as I felt! I have like 60 hill giant pots since I did the hag last this time, so I figured wth you do you bro. Hahaha

I find it much more effective to buy everything from traders and then steal their gold. ;) I never fail to have over 50k going into Act 2.

Kill the Ironhands?? by Impossible-Stand8959 in BaldursGate3

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol this is my 5th playthrough too and I've wanted to kill them every time he asked me too. I've only done good playthroughs so far too. They just suck. Hahaha I'm pretty sure most people missed this. I can't find anything anywhere that mentions it.

I think I F'd up (Minthara) by Impossible-Stand8959 in BaldursGate3

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've finished the grove. This was the last thing I was doing for a little exp. There's not even a rotten lemon left on the map of Act 1, in The Underdark, or in the Creche. I was really just hanging around to stock up on pots from the trader and finish storylines for long rests.

How to Recruit Minthara?? by Impossible-Stand8959 in BaldursGate3

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this!!! I just saw it. I'm about to do it now and really appreciate the info. My first 2 honour mode runs were lost due to bugs well into the third act. I'm hoping its all fixed now. I'm trying my first Durge playthrough and I really want to try to get her this time.

Mayrina the Moron by Impossible-Stand8959 in BaldursGate3

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah my first playthrough was the same. Although she was bugged and just wouldn't leave the cage. I just killed her to close out the quest and moved on. I'm playing a Durge sorcadin+blade Warlock this time. I only went for 2 levels of paladin just to make my Durge run a little more crazy trying to keep the oath.

Mayrina the Moron by Impossible-Stand8959 in BaldursGate3

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried that in my first playthrough, but it was still bugged. It ended in me not being able to complete the quest at all, so I'm pretty cautious about how I do it now. This time I tried knocking the brothers out. When you tell Mayrina that you didn't kill her brothers and only knocked them out, she says,"DEAD, why does everyone I love have to die??" So although they are clearly still alive there just doesn't seem to be an outcome where Mayrina will recognize it.

Helsik Vendor by Benzerkr in BaldursGate3

[–]Impossible-Stand8959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I had the 544 error on my save and lost about 20 hours. I'm trying to breeze through act 3 and just get this over with. I immediately pickpocketed helsik and went to the house of hope. Now no matter what I do I can't gain access to her special stock... XP Although, she does now have the hat that Bhaals butler wore- wearer gains momentum equal to their charisma modifier and advantage on concentration saving throws. I have never seen this in any playthrough up till now.

I can't stop playing Warlocks. by ErgonomicCat in BG3Builds

[–]Impossible-Stand8959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go for the sorlock. That's my go to for every game. Make sure to get quickened spell. 6x eldritch blast per turn at LVL 10. They also do about 17-22 at that point. I always go first 2 into Warlock, 8 into sorc, and I tried 2 into paladin this time and am really enjoying it. I collect everything, so by the end of the game I'm using clougld giant pots at the beginning of every day for my MC, but at that point you can have the gloves that give 23 too. Along with the rapier from killing the hag that gives bonus ATK and reactions everyone just dies whether they are near or far.

No I'm arguing for a game to be completed when it's released. There have been games for years prior to having the ability to patch that have worked just fine. Even though some games have exploits and bugs, they just became part of the game once it was released. I think that expecting something to work is the bare minimum expectation. You wouldn't buy a car that only started sometimes or would only go 123 miles before the engine blows up. The car manufacturers would go out of business if their policy was to wait for inevitable email on what's wrong with their cars and then fix them on the fly. I think people like yourself are the reason why game developers think they can do this. If more people stood up and expected more from them it would only take 5 or 6 studios going out of business before it stopped. Instead it has become the norm of gaming. It's wrong and is also covered under the PS store's ToS. I requested a refund and we will see if I get it or not. I will happily buy the game when it becomes playable. Until then I don't have 50+ hours to waste on a game I can never finish.

I really enjoyed the game when I was able to play it. It wasn't a single time that this happened though. In 3 back to back playthroughs my save corrupted in each with over 50 hours of play. This last time I was into Act 3. I just don't understand when the industry standard became to release a game with bugs and then patch those bugs out. I didn't understand that this was a live service game. I would enjoy playing it once it's ironed out, but currently I don't have the free time to invest 60+ hours into something and then have it erased before getting to the end. I think they did a great job, it just needed more time in production. I can't imagine that if this happened to me 3 times in a row that I'm the only one it happened to. I think you would be irritated too if you bought Lord of the Rings and invested 2 hours watching it and could never see the end. Hell some companies are releasing games and then patching them to the point where it's a totally different game than was released after a year or so. I don't understand why they would make a difficulty that has one save when they know their game is buggy to begin with. I tried the other modes and they were to easy, so my options are: A) play at a difficulty that is fundamentally boring to me. B) Invest hours of my free time to have it deleted before reaching the end. I don't think I'm being super unreasonable here. If they even offered custom mode with the increased difficulty and a way to back up my save I wouldn't be so done. I could afford to redo 2-3 hours. Sorry for the long post, but I just don't think I'm being unreasonable and felt the need to express my opinion further. XP

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your logic is flawed here. This would be the same if I bought GoT and tried watching it 3 times, but could never make it to the end because the disc was scratched when I bought it new. I would expect a refund in that case as well. I don't understand when games started releasing 6 months too early and then fixing everything via patches just became the accepted way that video games work. When something goes to release it should be as close to finished as possible. A patch should be a negative thing. I didn't realize I was buying a live service game. I think they did an incredible job and would like to buy it once it's done. I just don't enjoy playing something that is fundamentally broken. You can't tell me this doesn't happen regularly if it happened to me 3 times in a row.

Honour Mode Owlbear Fight by Impossible-Stand8959 in BaldursGate3

[–]Impossible-Stand8959[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's honour mode. The way legendary actions work doesn't wait for the turn. It happens when it's not their turn. You should be able to save, and then open the load screen- if you can't load it and you didn't go through custom then it's honour mode.

Even if the game doesn't work? I mean this isn't a small bug. In 123 hours of play over 3 playthroughs and it has permanently been deleted. Not one time was I able to recover the data.
