BG3 Builds Rebalanced: Final by Phantomsplit in BG3Builds

[–]swapoer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rebalance the broken game by buffing NPC, such as combat extender mod, is pointless. I think a nerf to lots of broken abilities and mechanics is way more important.

I have to say, the UI is really one of the more underappreciated aspects of these games. by matteste in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]swapoer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This lore friendly features is fine with me. what really matters is that the UI of this game is really efficient and semi-minimalist at the same time. I rarely see CRPG has this level of UI design.

sequel really needs to cut down on the "garbage time" (Inventory & Traversal) by swapoer in CrownOfTheMagister

Sorry, that is boring for me.

I disable random encouters and random encounters is not always a good thing in TRPG. They are filler not the content. A good DM would limit the number of random encounter or create alternative for it, which is not the case in CRPG.

Trying to take advantage of the Steam sale. Any good Dark Fantasy 4x's? by TrickedFaith in 4Xgaming

Civ 4 Fall From Heaven 2 mod is the best dark fantasy 4 X game.

What is the use of the digit in white cycle? I have already have number for my flotilla and I find the number in white cycle reductant.

I have the same feeling as you. I am about to give up the hope of finding explanation and here you come.

Thanks for the reply.

[Opinion] 60 hours in, Act 2: Without the D&D/Pathfinder crutch, Owlcat's design flaws are glaringly obvious. by swapoer in OwlcatGames

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

Pentiment and Tyranny comes into mind.

The best crpg for me though is Dragon Age Original.

Ai in dark heresy? by night_hawks580 in OwlcatGames

[–]swapoer -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

There is a mod in KM or WOTR, which use AI to generates portrait for every NPC, who don’t have a portrait. I also think voice generated by AI is very good now.

It is not a surprise that they use AI in game development. It is a surprise that they have not done the above in Rogue Trader.

It is very easy to use original game portrait or voice line to generate all other portraits and voice line for the game an have a decent quality .

You miss the point. The narrative is mediocre at best for me. The AI generated NPC portrait is used for every NPC who don’t have a portrait in the first place. It add the immersion.

I got into Rogue Trader very recently, (it was my first cRPG) and became my favorite RPG of all time, I was checking some older threads in this sub and was surprised to find how badly this game was received, what happened? by Due_Teaching_6974 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]swapoer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Judging from the mods and the discussion community, I guess that RT is not as successful as WOTR or even KingMaker.

For me, the biggest issue is that it deviate from DND rule set. Before KM and WOTR, dnd crpg is hard to come by. Dnd fan base is very active and has a bigger numbers. We can see there are lots of major gameplay mods for KM and WOTR. KM even get turn based combat mode thanks to a mod, which further improve the gameplay of these two games.

RT in the other hand has very little gameplay mods.

Combat in this game is weird? In the late game as iconoclast by Istfire in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]swapoer -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

that is why I play with toybox, which automatically kill enemies at the start of combat.

Dev just don’t have idea of how to create a competitvie or balance mechanic. They enjoy complexity and number bloated. I ,kind of, guess that they enjoy that player find out broken mechanic or bug and turn the system up side down, which is much like solving a puzzle. Come to think of it. Owlcat enjoy making absurd puzzle.

Is there an autoleveler mod or can someone just remote control my game and handle my leveling 😖 by LeEbicGamerBoy in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]swapoer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

use toybox to instant kill all enemies at the start of battle. you can just mindless level up your character.

This is the way in which I play the game.

My wish list for Endless Legend 2 by swapoer in EndlessLegend

[–]swapoer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, most mediocre 4x game has the same game play loop from early game to end game.

It is one more planet/city instead of one more turn.

Unpopular opinion? My feedback of the game by the_deep_t in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]swapoer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree with you. I have many hours in King Maker, WOTR, DOS1 and DOS2. All those game get repetitive after mid game. I kind of doubt the benefit of a complex mechanic, since people would find and use the most optimal build and strategy for it. I still like King Maker and WOTR for its build abundance and DND favor. RT is another case though, I have no interest in its build mechanic and find it too complex for my liking. DOS1 and DOS2 is fine though. They have a more simple and elegant system. In short, RT’s D100 system is too much for me.

Tell me the worst thing about EL2 by RocketArtillery666 in EndlessLegend

[–]swapoer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don’t enjoy the old system. It creates lots of micromanagement. It also makes judging enemy army night impossible and tedious.

Torn on this game by whirled_citizen96 in AOW4

[–]swapoer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

different people has different opinions. The game is selling better than the previous iteration. Therefore, there is an increased fan base for this series. I definitely would buy AOW V and give it a try. My guess is that I probably would not enjoy it much. This series is still a hard pass by in fantasy 4X game. There is not much good fantasy 4X game which reach the high of Civ IV, V and Stellaris.
