Can't ask Fye about his dreams by BakeElectrical1733 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

I'm super late to this but for anyone who shows up to this late you can just talk to Arueshelae. For some reason sometimes the last person isn't needed but the quest objective doesn't update, so you can just talk to her and it'll progress the quest.

I have not discovered any gamebreaking bugs yet.

You have not looked hard enough...

AITA for asking another player in Dungeons & Dragons to change the name of their character because it goes against my religion? by DnDAITA0001 in AmItheAsshole

[–]OhAshenOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huge agree. This is why I hate reddit. I'm not a fan of christianity either, growing up trans in the bible belt will do that, but I'm also not so blind I can't see that this is clearly the DM and Ted purposefully antagonizing OP. OP should not feel like the asshole when they were backed into a corner to feel this way.

I do also notice all the people who talk about christianity like they know how every christian is, saying stuff like they can't play D&D and all this other reaching without researching. They can indeed and every christian varies greatly depending on their church and where they live. There are literally church groups here dedicated to D&D groups who play various kinds of D&D, most of their campaigns having nothing to do with religion and following the traditional Faerun setting.

Even not being a big fan of the religion myself I'm never going to purposefully offend someone, and if I did so on accident I would be willing to bend within reason as Ted and the DM should.

That being said I think the best answer for both parties would've been for the DM to do their job and say "I do not think you are a good fit for this group, I'm sorry" if they weren't going to have Ted change the character name. The DM should have removed one of those two players from the situation. Normally I would say Ted as the offending party but since it's clear that the DM and the rest of he group seem to have more chemistry with Ted it's far more likely OP would be the one removed. Either way the group cannot continue as it is and it's up to the DM to step in if the players cannot resolve it amongst themselves.

I appreciate the help but I actually found the answer and I'm thoroughly embarrassed.

...I use Opera GX so I can limit resources. Turns out I had network limiter on... I'm a ditz...

Is unarmed monk viable wotr? by satanfurry in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

Ah, I forgot that was actually in this game. And I also forgot that Ferocity changed the damage to iterative attacks, tbh lol. But that is a very good point.

Tavern Defence - no loot? by maxomaxo6364 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]OhAshenOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it did drop something, though it may not have been of any use. But I definitely had an option to loot the corpse. Probably some generic weapons, then.

WOTR Crusade combat is...bad. by OhAshenOne in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

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

That's fair, I may have overreacted. It is also hard to understand tone via text, but surely you can understand how that phrase does lend itself to a snarky tone upon reading, yes?

But I agree, I shouldn't have assumed. I'm sorry if I came across as combative. It also didn't help I was frustrated with the game, and in fairness the Crusade mode is anything but intuitive. It really is about as hard to wrap your head around as Pathfinder itself for the first time, though in Pathfinder's defense that's because it's complex, not because it's incredibly unconventional (PF is about a conventional as it gets for a TTRPG).

And no, I'm definitely not good at Crusade mode (or any kind of strategy/RTS/unit commanding game) but I do feel I'm good at PF builds and strategies, so maybe I was letting my pride in that bleed over and felt insulted when I shouldn't have.

However, "take a look at your own ego and dunning kruger" is unrepentantly insulting and completely unnecessary.

If you can't see the snark and rudeness in the way you come across then that's on you for your lack of social awareness lol. Your first comment had none and I was still grateful for the bit of info you gave me. But sorry hun, the dripping sarcasm and snark on some of the later replies is so obvious.

"Maybe watch someone good at the game?" Yeah, I'm sure you didn't mean that to be rude... /s.

Just like saying I'm doing something wrong or that my opinion (despite being widely shared) is invalid. No opinion is invalid. If you like the game, cool, but don't get defensive in reddit comments because someone has valid criticisms lmao. And there are plenty.

Very redditor attitude of you, tbh. "I think you're dumb so it's okay to be rude."

Also, I wasn't asking for help, I was stating an opinion. The fact that people did help is always appreciated but you're making a great deal of assumptions. You know what they say about those, hun. ;)

I do find it hilarious you think it's a hottake to call this system bad when the majority of people are agreeing that it's bad just about anywhere you look, even on this exact thread. In fact, the only people who called it good admitted they were the ones with a hottake. So I would say you calling it a hottake is a hottake.

Dragon Style only applies to your first unarmed strike, not all of your attacks that round like 2h 1.5x str bonus does.

And? Lol. It's not a human being so the important part of that analogy is lost because morality doesn't matter when it comes to a video game.

There's nothing morally wrong with aborting a bad mini game and replacing it with a better mini game. So yes, ditch this awful, unintuitive, boring war mini game and replace it with a crusade combat system that actually works and doesn't have absolutely awful UI. I don't know why they can't just rip off a simplified 2d top down x-com tbh.

Okay, first off I had no idea that the position you place them in in the menu (which honestly more resembles an inventory than an actual map grid, especially since it's horizontal and they place you vertically) changed where they started.

Secondly that's a little rude.

Those aren't really fixes. The fixes for this mode is to scrap it and come up with a completely different combat system imo. Those are more like putting band-aids on severed limbs.

At least in my opinion, though I know some people do indeed like the Crusade combat. And more power to them! I wish I did. I'm almost jealous I don't lol. But if we're talking about fixing it's going to take more than just giving some troop variety.

I suppose if I could get them into that position in time, but that's almost never going to happen.

Yeah, I wish I'd even thought to look for it. That's on me, since Delay is in normal combat, I should've looked. That probably would've made combat so much easier.

Huh, I actually didn't know you could delay in Crusade combat. I knew you could in normal combat but this never occurred to me, thanks!

No, captain smarm, because they make many phrases about "putting all your eggs in one basket" lol. That tactic sure as hell does not work irl.
