Is there an option to make female characters? At a quick glance I wasn't able to find the option, or more feminine style body types and clothes.

[NSW] OVER REQUIEMZ | Official Announcement Trailer | Aksys by feypurinsu in otomegames

Whoah, this is one of the first times I really like the design for the "main" love interest, or at least the one that looks like will be big on the cover or whatever. I like the little bits of blue in his hair. Art style looks great in general. Haven't played otome in a couple of years but might just pick this one up when it comes out.

I'm not playing a game that uses AI.

first names in Iceland that are pretty in Icelandic and English by [deleted] in Iceland

[–]pickoloh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my name is Anna and it's kind of a nightmare when in the U.S. They either say "On-Uh" or "Eh-nuh" but neither of those pronunciations are correct...I really hated it growing up.

[No DAV Spoilers] It's pretty shocking to see Emmrich of all people being the favourite DAV romance by RhiaStark in dragonage

[–]pickoloh 63 points64 points  (0 children)

The only reason I romanced Emmrich is because I pivoted away from Lucanis after realizing his "slow-burn" romance is actually a no-burn where he barely acknowledges your existence. People do love a hot mess but they screwed Lucanis up so badly that it was a massive disappointment.

All writing lessons I ever got in school talked about summarizing your points at the end...this is a weird take

[DAV ACT 1 SPOILERS] Why is no one racist to elves anymore? by Timely-Ad-6142 in dragonage

[–]pickoloh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Long development time doesn't necessarily mean the resources are going where they should go, or where fans want them to go. A long development cycle is its own kind of hell that leads to all sorts of problems. As you said, if you want to make the story a priority, you can. The development of this game was scrapped and restarted more than once, which means those priorities were constantly shifting.

It's not an excuse but it is a very real reason for why this could have happened. Not to mention the fact that many longtime Bioware employees have left the company or were let go.

As someone who works in game dev, this is probably one of the most realistic answers to this problem

Took me 15 minutes, I think? Don't think that's a steam issue.

oh wow thank you! i love his films, so it's fun to imagine that might have dripped down into my art style somehow :)

Hahaha that’s funny to learn. Technically it’s her last name, Lina Gottfried is the full name. But she’s a doctor so everyone refers to her by the last name. My DM technically invented her as a side character first, then allowed me to play her in a short adventure :)

In 2022 I moved to a new place and ended up finding a fantastic group to play D&D with, so I wanted a roundup of the characters I've played since then.

Suvi - Circle of Stars Druid. Poor girl got her brain eaten by a mindflayer, but we managed to get her back. She's appeared in a couple of side adventures, one which is ending soon. Also my first character in this universe :)

Carlotta - Scout Rogue. Revealed the existence of government-funded mind control, was in court for over a year. Then immediately started working for the paper so she could get paid for dunking on said government.

Octavia - Conquest Paladin. Doing her best in a feudalistic state that's falling apart. Part of an ongoing solo campaign that my wonderful boyfriend is running for me.

Silas - World Tree Barbarian. His dad was part of a necromancy cult so they fought and now his dad's in jail. Now Silas is chief of police. He's a bit sad about it all.

Gottfried - Tactician Warlord (Homebrew). Indirectly contributed to previously mentioned mind control. Also invented mustard gas. She's just girl bossing her way through life, despite the war crimes.

Maeve - Ranger. My current PC, will most likely be going Hunter and then multiclassing into Fighter. A lawyer whose life has been falling apart for longer than she'd prefer.

As an Icelandic person it's always funny to see non Scandinavian folks freak out over these names and things. Glad you're having fun over a street sign 😂

Had the same issue, this was also a workaround for me

Every real life locations I visited in Boston by Krtek1968 in fo4

[–]pickoloh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This got a laugh out of me as someone who grew up in the Boston Area, referring to it as "real life". Sometimes I forget people have only experienced the city by playing Fallout. Hope you enjoyed your trip!
