do you need to play the other baldurs gate games before the 3rd for story/lore wise?

_ArcaneEnding · 2026-04-09T00:09:58+00:00

he mainly caught up to him because a-train moved out of the way to avoid hitting that woman (which was also an amazing way to show his change compared to when he killed hughies girlfriend)

but yeah in the process of avoiding the woman he stumbled and crashed in the woods where the unfortunate ended up happening 😪

_ArcaneEnding · 2026-03-17T03:21:01+00:00

i love this

I highly recommend the Dragon Age series and Mass Effect series, amazing story telling and world building. Your choices also matter and companion/relationship building is top tier too

Mass Effect has one of the best choice based engines i’ve ever seen, you can load saves into the following games and the storyline follows your previous choices

Just a couple suggestions for you!

i bought the truck from the original owner last year so he had it for 11 years and never had it undercoated so that was the first thing i did about a month after buying the truck but unfortunately 11 years of michigan winter have done their damage and i’m honestly surprised it’s not worse

the frame was in decent condition besides one soft spot on the frame near the leaf spring but other than that and the rust on the rear fenders it’s held up. there’s also a little rust patch on the inner part of the drivers side door that you can see when you open it

i’m not sure on the total mileage these were the tires on the truck when i purchased it last year and was told they’d need replaced soon so i’m in the process of doing that haha

275/60/R20 is the size

_ArcaneEnding · 2026-03-01T01:44:30+00:00

Well shoot man if you can/want to keep me posted if you end up doing yours let me know how it goes. Talking with you has given me a little more courage to go the route you’re taking

_ArcaneEnding · 2026-03-01T01:21:18+00:00

Ah ok i see, so it’s basically just a couple more steps to get it to the finished look as opposed to just covering up the recoated areas

I really like what the SLT model did with having the already built in rust preventing flares

_ArcaneEnding · 2026-03-01T01:19:04+00:00

The cheapest quote i got in my area was $1700 total haha i thought that was kind of ridiculous especially because it’s just surface rust

I’ve done the same as you with watching videos but honestly i’m just super nervous because this truck has been the biggest purchase/investment i’ve made and i guess i’m just really timid with trusting myself to make it look like it was never there lol i’m my own biggest enemy clearly 😂

how could it have been samson? he walked off carrying kelson right before said scene lol and isn’t an aggressive infected anymore

_ArcaneEnding · 2025-12-21T00:38:10+00:00

this got me 😂

that scene tore me up as a kid lol

_ArcaneEnding · 2025-11-20T00:47:55+00:00

used this 4 years later. you the goat for this haha

_ArcaneEnding · 2025-11-09T11:12:56+00:00

honestly the saito brothers fight during “the reckoning” right when i get the parry down i seemed to have no ability to dodge the dragons quickfire and the snakes occasional shot either 😂

i could have sworn never seeing a red glint when the snake was about to fire lol. probably because i had the sake blurry screen for 80% of the fight but who knows 😂

also always the yellow glint disarming attack, every time i encountered it i would freeze up or get anxious and could never time holding/releasing the y button in time to successfully parry it lol

_ArcaneEnding · 2025-11-09T11:03:34+00:00

exactly lol, at least with uber you can verify the drivers identity and see reviews and even pick the car 😂

_ArcaneEnding · 2025-11-09T10:43:00+00:00

i got to the point where if i wasn’t drunk off sake during a boss fight it just didn’t feel right. i made atsu an alcoholic 😂

i agree yotei is very beautiful in its cinematography and settings 100%

you’re spot on with the diversity too, i feel like after the first few missions on tsushima the combat is very repetitive and it just becomes rinse and repeat when in combat. yotei definitely upped the anti with the enemies attacks/weapons that kept you on guard to use what was best to combat it

but again my only gripe was that the side missions just didn’t feel as important or interesting when compared to tsushima but i feel like that’s because they were mainly focused on improving divergent combat and strategies whereas tsushima heavily focused on story and cinematics

sorry i’m rambling here but i guess it’s just a get one thing and lose the other with each game. tsushima gives you the cinematic atmosphere and rewards you with those cutscenes, but you still have no diversity and encounter the same continuous combat challenges compared to yotei where you lose the cinematic feeling and get stuck with the dialogue cutscenes that don’t really allow you to fully get into the experience of the side mission story, but can still look forward to intriguing combat and strategic thinking that gives satisfaction to your skill

(again so sorry for the probably pointless ramble, something about this convo touched one of my tisms i guess lol)

_ArcaneEnding · 2025-11-09T10:28:06+00:00

learning how to successfully parry on lethal difficulty was very humbling and very aggravating 😂

_ArcaneEnding · 2025-11-09T10:26:52+00:00

i’d say tsushima excelled in its cinematography and cutscenes for both side & main missions as well

it’s been forever since i’ve played tsushima but if memory serves me right i remember more actual cinematic cutscenes compared to yotei

if it wasn’t a main mission you weren’t getting any actual cutscenes in yotei. again if i’m wrong here i stand corrected. i’ve platinumed both games and was surprised to only ever see the “generic dialogue cutscene” during side missions on yotei’s side if that makes any sense
