I've been enjoying it a lot honestly. Much better written than any romance in previous owlcat games.
It's a lot of tsundere ice queen defrosting integrated to the stuff you run into when she's in your party, quick flashes in her eyes at iconoclastic things you say or do, her appreciation for you growing with her understanding of human potential. You see, romancing an eldar requires a very high IQ, strength of character, force of will, self-restraint, and appreciation of subtlety. I think the betrayal+forgiveness actually adds a lot to the arc, narratively. It wouldn't be same without it
Also it's pretty cute how she tilts her head to the side when you say something that suprises her, like a bird.
>I think the betrayal+forgiveness actually adds a lot to the arc, narratively. It wouldn't be same without it
Honestly, that's just KM's Tristian 2.0 situation
Its a 100% platonic 'friend'ship. Literally no romantic love whatsoever.

Mate, play the game. The only one coping here is you. The RT disgusts her. In her 'best' ending she literally fricks off from your life forever except to say bye at the very end of it. If you think that's love you got aome major issues.

this is what a terminally-online and functionally illiterate coombrain looks like
this, Yrliet's romance path is very cleverly written.
It reminds me of the whole "if you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours forever". and she comes back at your deathbed to see the last moments of your soul
they really don't. The best they can do is reproduce ASAP and act like they didn't enjoy it. Their version of love is just that, love. No touch.
then how do they make baby eldar?
First the society, or the parents, that want children go on a quest to find waystones. (They're really deep in the warp). Once they have waystones for new Eldar they quickly impregnate the ones who want a baby, in secret.
The baby is then given the waystone to hold on forever, lest the baby goes to Eldar hell (Slaneesh's domain)

The practice of soulstone gathering, yeah. Everything else was headcanon.
Dogmatic is following the teachings of the Emperor. Iconoclast is following his ideals.
Neither are inherently right or wrong (though Dogmatic is based upon the false religion made real of him so it's wrong more often while Iconoclast is more Noblebright on the whole)
Probably because you ignoring the fact that a bunch of the citizens at your parade uncovered themselves as heretics and there is nothing stopping them from pulling that shit again.
No astarte from any respectable chapter would want to be part of rogue trader's "retinue" for very long I imagine. Space yiffs are the designated janny chapter.
I don't want to spend every waking moment making sure Brother Black personicus didn't make off with half my cargo, my power sword and my Warrant of Trader
If DoW3 didn't massively fail, you just know "Warrant Of Trade" would of made it into the Blood Ravens inventory
I don't want to spend every waking moment making sure Brother Black personicus didn't make off with half my cargo, my power sword and my Warrant of Trader
>blasts Idira way before Argenta does >blasts knife ear on sight >blasts (you) for picking heretical dialog option
But seriously that would have been way better than what we got
Fricking hell, the first time I did the opening sections of chapter 3 I kind of used toybox to breeze through to see a few things.
Now that I'm looking carefully, that fricking debuff on Aberlard is so shitt. It ruins all the athletics checks and there's a ton.
This section is pure cancer and frick Owlcat for it.
From the moment he understood the weakness of his flesh, it disgusted him. He craved the strength and certainty of steel. He aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call the temple will wither, and you will beg his kind to save you. But he is already saved, for the Machine is immortal… Even in death he serves the Omnissiah.

But a fragment of what humanity could do pre emperor
There was a fragment in time where humanity was monstrously powerful
Then the eldar partied so hard the warp became unnavigable leading to a frickload of shit being lost through the galaxy
When Amiri's group attacks and you meetup with one of her clan members he asks you if you would jump off a cliff if asked by your leader and the lawful good option is yes
The Omnissiah isn't the Emperor. It can't be, there are dudes in the Mechanicus who were alive to witness the 30th millenium, they met the guy and know he wasn't literally a god. I think it's supposed to be the Void Dragon who basically created the Necrons kinda sorta.
I wonder if this will cause problems, I'm still getting the options to react to Cassia's flower even after having responded, will the romance just get stuck and not continue?
>finish act 3 >talk to a scout >automatically teleport to ship with everyone standing around like a cutscene was supposed to play >no one has anything new to say
Welp gets that's the end of my story
I've legitimately no idea how you were suppose to do the Malice fight without the cargo exploit.
I play on daring and I really imagine how much anons that run these games on higher difficulties will manage if that exploit gets patch or if they just would rather do it legitimately.
It feels like it's an exercise in pain, so whoever's out there doing that, respect to you.
Well yeah I did the cargo exploit. I'm not trying to frustrate myself with this game.
I just feel it's really badly designed fight given how badly they gimp you. Malice is hard enough but throwing 3 kabalite warriors with their insane dodge rates at you is just unfair.
oh yeah, that's right. i got wiped on that the first time i tried it.
since you don't have your equipment, you can't resolve stack like you'd expect to. i had to live through a round of attacks from them which was pretty spicy. If you use abelard to AOE taunt you can live through the worst of it. Try to use cover as well. If you survive to round two then your dps will clean up like it usually does
The real tough fight is that mutant thing that spawns where you found abelard. It gets turn interrupts and 1HKO your closest party member when it takes damage. pic related, that's it in the top left
>Get through Act 1 twice >Restart both times
I keep doing it in every modern RPG and I don't know why.
Okay, seriously, is the difficulty bugged or something? Is Normal mode harder than Unfair? Malice was a piece of piss for me, I barely registered it as a thing I did. This cannot be normal.
>Get into void fight >Can't win >Reload and come back later
How in the hell are we supposed to know how difficult these fights are and why in God's name am I not allowed to build reputation with the navy to get decent ship parts without trophies.
The Delf cruisers that shit out fighters are impossible to beat like this. They'll blast your torpedos if they can't reach you and they're faster than you.
>Get to first void fight >It doesn't give you a tutorial of the upgrades or officers
Rather weird decision, I loaded an earlier save to set up and upgrade everything.
>why in God's name am I not allowed to build reputation with the navy to get decent ship parts without trophies.
you can do it. tier 2 and 3 buildings in the capital planet
By default, any marines are fricking terrifying. That is unless their opposition has plot armor today, which happens quite often. This particular marine was more of a jobber, in reality he should be expected to wipe a floor with player's party.
I was shitting bricks when he first appeared. I just knew and had feeling it would be a tough fight and god damn it was.
Took me 3 attempts on Daring with the second being very close but managed to take beat it on the third. Holy shit got so excited at the last shot that I actually shouted out BURN HERETIC!!!! The Emperor protects!
>the dialogue if you tell Yrliet to keep going with the torturing/psychic feeding in return for your forgiveness
Jesus fricking okay Owlcat I forgive her goddamn!
She doesn't. I think if you leave her behind she gets rescued by the Harlequinn that's mucking about.
But if you tell her to keep going this is the result
Actually a huge gutpunch. This game knows how to twist the knife of someone that's trying to go full dogma I think. Or maybe that's too much empathy on my part.
bros is this quest bugged or something? I'm in the Tenebris Aquae system right now and there's nothing I can do. There's an area on one of the planets I can see but can't go to on account of going there before I encountered Yrliet. Did I frick up?
That's even more confusing because there was a battle going on but entering it just made me fight what I assume are dark eldar ships and that's that. It didn't even update the questline or prompt me with dialogue of any sort.
The Yrilet romance is so clever because it's written to filter the people who she'd hate IRL to begin with
weeabshit coomers with weak characters are eternally btfo, no wonder why they're so mad
-You can skip having to ask Leige to get rid of the “zap-a-Xenos” sideshow
-you can get the guards to let you into the plague area without asking liege (still need to do other mission first)
- The whole funeral quest is very different
I'm disappointed with the space ship game. I was hoping that we'd be able to get a small fleet, and have seevral ships accompany us to battle, this is dumb
>my abelard's age debuff just randomly disappeared after he got knocked unconcious in a fight
wtf owlcat. how are you supposed to heal him normally, the fleshcrafter? I don't want him to still be oldbelard for story reasons because of this bug
Anon he's gonna leave you. No, you can't corrupt him to the point of him staying for the chaosride. He's only willing to corrupt himself into an iconoclast.
>tfw can't bully jimmi by transmitting your carnal joyrides to the whole ship
it would probably be too cruel, since i doubt anyone would be able to take him seriously afterwards
No, what I mean is that you do frick Josephine, bioware simply didn't include a sex scene because reasons, but there is no reason to assume it's a sexless relationship
Asexual for eldar, too, since Eldar have normal sex too. Exodite, DEldar, corsair, craftworlder, doesn't fricking matter, they all have sex. Just the RT gets completely and utterly cucked.
>finest hour with upgrade 1 and 4 >cassia
I usually go for elf pussy in games but I'm falling for the fish just by how fricking useful she is with my commissar. The Aurora fight was literally nothing with her.
"Platonic romance" is an oxymoron, just say sexless or chaste romance. Platonic means friendly and non-romantic.
There is emotional romance just no physical sex with the elf (unless you count soul sex as sex).
Romance =/= sex
By that logic those Catholic (or whatever religions/denominations do it) couples that wait until marriage to frick aren't in a "real relationship" till they get married just because they didn't frick till then.
The romance aspect is emotional sex is the carnal part.
sex is expected eventually between catholic couples. you are not having sex and it is not expected ever. she is not physically attracted to you, so it's not romance. you might be in love with her, but she is not in love with you. cope
No she doesn’t. The most you get is hand holding. Anything more breaks the romance. Considering that craftworlders are such ridiculous autists that courtship can take a thousand years, that’s something I guess.
You're missing the part were in your example sex is still very much expected to happen. Waiting till after marriage is not the same as not having sex at all. Erotic love, and therefore romance, is inextricably linked with sex and physical intimacy. A relationship without these can be many things, but certainly bot a romantic one. Filial love or storge for example. But eros aka romantic love ALWAYS includes sex.
As such Yrliet doesn't have a romance.
>But eros aka romantic love ALWAYS includes sex. >As such Yrliet doesn't have a romance.
False because you're defining eroticism by your own conception of it.
Not that I disagree there shouldn't be a physical component here and I think that's a negative to the romance story told, but still.
I went GS and spent all the talents on psyker talents. GS is good for only one thing: you always move first. Between your officer abilities, bio psyker talents, officer ult, you can usually win every fight before turn 1 is over
tactician is okay, you can deal a lot of damage with psyker abilities using it.... but both the GS and MT ults are trash compared to the officer one
i'm at what looks like the final fight
it's great warhammer kino. game itself is mid, but satisfying.
looking back at my 100 or so hours playing the game, i should probably have read a book instead lol
It's simultaneously a glorious palace to humanity's greatness an an absolute shithole. Because basically everything that isn't the Imperial Palace and where all the nobles and beauracrats live is basically a planet-wide slum.
>1 line of implied sex at the end
Well first, it's not implied at all with their other romances
Second, if I added a single line saying that your romance option killed and raped your dog (in that order) would you have a problem with that? It's just a single minor line, after all
B*oware inflicted catastrophic damage on rpg genre with their shit by causing people perceive it as some kind of dating sims. If only there was a way to fix it. Well, it looks like Owlcat is trying, considering how all their games make romancegays asshurt.
I for one love the Yrliet caged bird references in her romance path. It has a nice touch of realism and build up. That said, I still want to mind break her into my xenos pet and have her wear a collar. I don't know what's wrong with me
based. Yrliet makes a great caged bird wife. Also in act 4 when you go to the jungles, why does the Alderai attack you, even if you have Yrliet in the party?
>terminal coomers are seething because they couldn't frick space elf so they're coping by forcing the "it's not real romance even if she loves you, love must equal sex bro" narrative
Coomers should all be killed honestly, such pathetic, insipid, backbiting creatures.
At least their genes will never spread beyond the dried tissues in their rooms.
I've been enjoying it a lot honestly. Much better written than any romance in previous owlcat games.

Also it's pretty cute how she tilts her head to the side when you say something that suprises her, like a bird.
Which part of literally physically repulsed at the mere thought of even touching you, not wanting anything romantic with you and fricking off from your life forever is difficult for you to grasp?
>Hey, ROgue Trader, why aren't you married yet >I am amrried though >can we see the wife >N-no... >Why? >I-it's a s-soul marriage >O-ok, any heirs on the way? >Y-yeah... After we have soul sex again maybe
The absolute state of the von Valancius dynasty
>terminal cucks are seething because they couldn't frick space elf so they're coping by forcing the "it's 2deep4u romance you don't need to have sex to be romantically involved, the unity of bodies and souls is a meme" narrative
lol, coomer boy is angry. what are you gonna do coomer boy? edit a few more screenshots?
I wonder if your mother cries herself to sleep some nights at what a sad creature you've become
>not letting him retire and spend every waking moment with his waifu (you)
shame. Imagine the number of heirs you'd be able to concieve and give birth to with his virile biomancy enhanced semen
Why is half of every RT thread arguing about fricking romance which is a small part of the game?
Why are people trying to autistically force some "cuckoldry" narrative that isn't there every thread?
Ganker has a community of owlkek [sic] schizo neets who do this stuff all day. it's just the same couple of homosexuals, you can tell because they use weird in-group words like "froggy" and are always having schizo breakdowns thinking everyone is out to get them or there's some one guy stalking them or whatever
it's unfortunate since this game is fun that we have to brush elbows with these guys
>you can tell because they use weird in-group words like "froggy"
Kek I love newbies
Reminds me of that one homosexual that thought Farquaad was a Larian employee who shilled the game
They're kinda entertaining in their patheticness, how they even coordinate with edited screenshots and specific meme images and scheduling on their shilling
what exactly mindbroke them? The kingmaker valerie stuff? Damn, these permalosers must have been keepipng this up for years
Schizos constantly spamming their cuck fanfiction are everywhere. Ganker has it's fair share of them too. Can't discuss WataOshi without half the thread dedicated to it. You just have to get used to it.

He's famous here too since he spammed cuckshit and seethed thar nenio wasn't romancable for ages both here and on the /vg/ threads
I don't get it. How can someone dedicate so much time of their life to shilling against a game company and romances forcing cuckshit.
I get it becoming a gag and posting it for a while but it's been years ffs, don't they have a fraction of a life?
some people have really sad and unfulfilling lives. and they repay the world by shitting up what little social spaces they have access too, like imageboards.
>don't they have a fraction of a life?
i've met a few of these guys. they're former alcoholics barely making ends, disabled types on welfare, mentally ill people being supported by family, that sort of a thing. it's no understatement to say that they have nothing going for them.
that aside, i always though "having a life" was some sort of cope by guys stuck neck deep in obligations they don't really want.
Dunno why people expected anything else from Owlkek to be honest tho. Their immense and burning hatred for their core audience is pretty well known at this point.
the yrilet romance is good because it's a good story, simple as
people who care about videogame romance and specific sex lives of imaginary characters this much need to get a life
>why did the drukhari act like a drukhari
Jeeee I don't know Yrliet it's almost like they're THE GODDAMN FRICKING DRUKHARI!
You know, the fricks that thrive on the torture and pain of literally everyone including their own people. Those fellows that still practice the same depraved shit THAT LEAD TO THE BIRTH OF THE CHAOS GOD CURRENTLY FEASTING ON EVERY SINGLE KNIFE EAR SOUL THAT ENTERS THE WARP
Surely, SURELY someone read this dialogue and realized how moronic it sounds. I'm not even saying anymore that the betrayal's moronic that's been beaten to death. But how the frick can she EVER FRICKING THINK a drukhari would tell her the goddamn truth in ANY capacity. Is she literally moronic? As in sub room temp IQ.
I played both of the pathfinder games and absolutely hated them. is this game different enough that I might actually like it? can you get cool xenos tech like an eldar starcannon or a tau stealth suit? are there beeg slaaneshi breasts? can you bang the sister of battle?
it is different enough. But it depends on what you disliked about pathfinder. how did you like the gameplay of wasteland 3 and x-com? because rt combat is very close to that
I liked old xcom and new xcom was ok. the thing I hated most about pathfinder was the way that you were expected to use a bunch of spellcasters and if you wanted to play a martial focused party you were basically playing on punishment mode. is this game the same way with psykers? can their heads randomly explode every time they try to cast a spell like the lore says they should?
>expected to use a bunch of spellcasters and if you wanted to play a martial focused party
All you had to do was buff your martial and then go to town hitting things
This game is kinda similar, don't expect to solo everything by having an entire team of warriors and soldiers
buff with what? don't say a spellcaster or a scroll that only spellcasters can use.
>is this game the same way with psykers?
No. you can eschew psykers entirely but they are useful. especially early on >can their heads randomly explode every time they try to cast a spell like the lore says they should?
well, it's possible but doesn't happen often. One of your companion psykers is more prone to head exploding demon summoning behaviour due to her background, but, like i said, doesn't happen often
so a full dakka party is viable and won't feel like I am playing on 2 difficulties higher?
YAnon, you know spellcasters can be martials too right? A cleric can fight, a wizard can pick levels of eldritch knight and fight. The only spells you need are the buffing ones
>is this game the same way with psykers?
No. you can eschew psykers entirely but they are useful. especially early on >can their heads randomly explode every time they try to cast a spell like the lore says they should?
well, it's possible but doesn't happen often. One of your companion psykers is more prone to head exploding demon summoning behaviour due to her background, but, like i said, doesn't happen often
I find it funny that some people were saying iconoclast = imperial truth
While honestly seems more in line some form of pseudo-christian philosophy given how extreme (to the point of being illogical) some of the options to forgive are
This has to be somehow bugged.
I know for a fact I did all 3 of the aeldari saving missions perfectly. Is her dialogue just always like this? Then what's the point in doing those missions perfectly if it changes nothing, not even dialogues like this?
In mine she's bending over backwards out of guilt betraying me and regrets it. I still feel we missed a frick ton of context and cutscenes like with the inquisitor and her finding the artefact back home.
At least the dark elf city plot goes hard, even though my psyker chad could have blown off all of their heads
But I'm sure I did them all right. All of them ended in goddamn failure. No matter what I did
One of them all of them were already dead. The other was the one that EVEN if you get through the super hard persuasion check, any of the three choices after (bring the aeldar aboard the ship, give them provisions or direct them to Janus) leads to shit and the last one was the eldar ship in the minefield which is fricked because even if you get through the minefield fine everyone's ALSO already dead.
I've literally no idea what you could possibly do. Was it because I didn't give Janus to the Farseer I wonder?
Also she's pretty guilty, every other dialogue piece is her saying that.
I am bamboozled.
weird. im an evil chaotic frick and she's a gibbering pathetic mess right now but I let her live to repay me and she isnt as haughty as your pics. might be a bug or something that will be improved in next patch or the enhanced edition they do
same thing happened to me, it was offputting given how guilty she felt in every other talk to the point of offering to be tortured
i even forgave her on the black city after we talked for a bit
In mine she's bending over backwards out of guilt betraying me and regrets it. I still feel we missed a frick ton of context and cutscenes like with the inquisitor and her finding the artefact back home.
At least the dark elf city plot goes hard, even though my psyker chad could have blown off all of their heads
>thought the patch broke loads of equipment for me >realised it actually bug fixed a lot of stuff I wasn't meant to be equipping on party members and broke my cheese starts
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
huh really? can you give an example of exploit equips that was not supposed to happen? I think I noticed that the eldar sniper rifle from jae was mistakenly one hand and could have a sword in offhand (which funnily enough appeared a bit like a bayonet). but you couldn't equip that anyways without toybox
yea a lot of delf and efl equipment, the preorder/dlc items were only meant for the captain and a lot fo the items that said you needed a certain alignment level could be equipped on anyone and broke cassia even more for me on unfair. Now she's still strong but I miss her popping heads the entire battle
lets just sleep together in bed, no we won't sex. Why are all cuck posters moronic? The scene after literally has Cassia put back on her stockings in front of you.
I have 45 hours logged and finally rolled a character I like. I am finally going to make it out of this damn prologue and explore the stars. Touch fish puss and maybe, by the God-Emporer's grace, kill some fricking xenos.
Does the Never Stop Shooting talent work for melee attacks? The name suggests otherwise but the talent itself doesn't specify anything other than "attacks".
I really feel there should be more talents for power armor, something that could make it have extra deflection in the open or count as cover in the open. At least its been fun putting the heaviest guns on Ulfar and turning him into a battle tank, he's better than argenta at least and less preachy
>it's actually a 2-phase fight >mc and abelard almost dead because I didn't see the druk'hari snipers in the platforms earlier
wew this will be tough lol no jk i'll just roll them as always, maybe i'll even actually use consumables this time
Why is this game so fricking easy?
I'm playing on the second hardest difficulty, about to crank it up to Unfair in hopes of it becoming an actual video game and not a curbstomping simulator.
The enemies literally never get a turn. I kill everything in the first round, every single time. Officer goes first, commands Argenta, Argenta commits genocide and wipes half the map, wiping half the map lets her take a heroic action to wipe the remaining, and then if there are any survivors I get to use MY heroic action to absolutely 100% ensure every motherfricker on the planet is dead.
I just did the xenos hunt with Calligos and the writing indicates that I was supposed to notice things about him during the fight, like certain suspicious battle quotes and weird abilities he uses, but I never fricking saw any of it because all the enemies were dead before he got a single turn!
If they're trying to drop hints and shit during combat, then clearly players aren't intended to be nuking entire encounters in round one. Did they not test the game at all? How did they fail to realize how fricking easy this is?
I'm also feeling this. I was excited for the patented owlcat difficulty spike that I heard anons talking about in act 3, and while it was refreshing to have to scavenge for welfare gear and take unfair fights that ended too soon. Enemies definitely got inflated health pools and new abilities but combat still ends in the first turn. Two turns tops.
Yeah I think they made a mistake with the momentum stuff honestly. Too much action economy bullshittery and stuff the player can do that the enemies can't
And that's even before we get self-buff scaling, 50 stacks of versatility arch-militants, or 300 will cassia
I'm exaggerating a bit but I was on 350 ballistics skill on argenta the pic and webm-related fight where I instaggibed marzipan as well as his boss or gay lover or w/e. I just alternate singles and bursts as needed
The big thing is getting reckless rush (which doubles your momentum and halves it back once your turn ends) and the feat that makes it cost 0ap so you're basically running double versatility every turn. I think she was up to 40 in that one
Could you explain how? I'm really struggling to understand. Does your Argenta not just shred everything in one round? She literally takes out chapter bosses in one burst fire for me. Do you not have an officer? Is it low hit chance, or low damage?
>Does your Argenta not just shred everything in one round?
Not immediately, it requires at least two turns of build up. >Do you not have an officer?
No actually, since my only officer is Jae and i often don't bring her. >Is it low hit chance, or low damage?
What?
Anyway, sounds to me like the main issue is officers letting classes that take a while to get going get going immediately.
Bring it down is fricking insane and then finest hour just lets your dps (usually cassia) run rampant. My Aurora fight lasted 3 turns because of officer buffs.
>So how much tech is actually lost
All of it.
Not even memeing, whatever glimpses of old tech we get are so advanced compared to usual Imperium shit it's not even funny. Some of the best weapon designs Imperium uses (like terminator armor) are repurposed industrial equipment. 40k world is post-apocalyptic world where humanity never really recovered and instead learned to run civilization with remaining 1% of bygone era.
As of how much admech hoard, likely nothing important that they can replicate, since it's a matter of their own security as well.
The AdMech loves to hoard, but it's more because they're the only one able to really use/make the tech in the Imperium, and also because all the forge worlds are in ferocious competitions with each others and want to be the winner of their Quest of Knowledge.
Which is the reason why the Imperium is so schizo tech. Mars is genuinely able to create marvels the like of which not seen since the Dark Age of Technology, we're talking miniature personal forcefield or teleporters or gravtech or impossible weapons: which Mars builds maybe ten pieces a year, in an Imperium with a quadrillion demand.
As a result, the average tech level in the Imperium is what a random Hive World can make (with the help of the Admech), which is quite low. But when necessary the Imperium can throw surprisingly high level tech around.
No it sucks, you get to fight all across it later with the random battles from void travel but it seems like walking around might have been cut. I've put a few suggestions for it through the ingame bug report though
>it's actually game over if you refuse the shitter doc
...this is a bit fricking moronic. He took out the fricking worm thing from me. He's got NOTHING left to threaten me with. Why the frick do I do without even a goddamn boss battle. I figured eventually it'd result in a hard as balls encounter. This is just stupid.
>He's got NOTHING left to threaten me with.
you're one foot in the grave, so much so that you didn't even notice him conduct surgery on you. of course he can kill you
did you take the dialogue path where in a nano second he can insert blades into all your nerve spots, disable your body, bring it back from the dead and turn you into a sentient soup that feels itself being digested when eaten?
I was standing though, at least my character's model was. I assume I was back up
But still, how about SOMEONE FRICKING SHOOT HIM!
I dunno Yrliet maybe use that fricking special eldar gun the crazy RT fellow gave me
OR DUNNO PASQAL HOW ABOUT THAT GODDAMN MELTA ULTIMA!
did you take the dialogue path where in a nano second he can insert blades into all your nerve spots, disable your body, bring it back from the dead and turn you into a sentient soup that feels itself being digested when eaten?
lived like a b***h, died like a b***h before even getting a turn
wasn't even strong enough to survive the first bolt from the burst lmao truly b***hmade
Wait, am I not supposed to get him after? He's in the cage of the fleschrafter but I just get fluff when I try talking to him
I may have bugged out that first arena fight by killing everything too fast. I saw a cutscene of him killing stuff with a knife but after that I ended the fight in one round and didn't have anything to do with the astartes
Huh, I did ask him but he said something like >The chasm is full of useless malcontents for you to pick up and add to your arena team dont' bother me
Do I need to do give him more bodyparts or something?
There isn't much to restart with >Ranged character >Melee character >Ranged character but worse >Character that passes the turn to ranged or melee character
Some homeworld or origin traits can be significant, but ultimately you just pick whatever benefits one of the above.
Didn't pick the option the second time and ain't reloading a third
She gets piercing through the spirit stone and other bits so he can collect samples
I?m already pissed enough this fricker wont give back Cassia and can insta kill me without a fight. Ain't giving him anything more than the game requires.
My interactions with the 40k setting have been pretty cursory, just the first two Dawn of War games and Darktide, but the idea of it having romance is so weird to me. And it's weird to me that so many people in these threads are fixated on romances.
>And it's weird to me that so many people in these threads are fixated on romances.
If you see ten different posts talking about something in a thread, that doesn't mean they were written by ten different people.
40k is a lot like Dune, which is very thinly stole ideas from. Just because most of the games focus on the war fronts doesn't mean a lot is going on outside of war. Its like saying there was no romance happening in WW2 even hundrds of miles from the front or whatever its just something ppl need to get used to. Also its a very minor part of the story waifugays gonna waifugay
>40k is a lot like Dune
When you finally read it, it turns out to be a lot of people standing around in rooms pontificating and very little of the mystical martial arts shit?
I'm just gonna say, from what I read, the romances for male is actually well written with a lot of thought put into it >the fish - can't stay on land forever, but will wait for you at the beach whenever you're in the area >the bird - can't be locked up, but will return to you whenever the winds are favorable >the cat - will accompany you but can't help but feel they're using you
Modern interpretation of "good romance" is too heavily influenced by Isekai and fujo. "Good romance" now supposed to jerk off player/viewer ego, should exist for it's own sake, instead of being a fineshed element of the bigger story.
This is why Yrilet, Jae and Cassia romances are so different from Jimmy and Marazhai
Btw same applies to "fixed Cam-Cam ending"
What does this even mean? Like, does Cassia need to treat you like shit? To not get flustered and spill spaghetti despite spending her entire life locked up? Because otherwise it's "pandering and ego boosting"?
>I bet you this person has done nothing but argue about ascended astarion for months
Actually no. I found BG-3 much more forgetable. May be because of the main story, idk

Camelliagays that call her "CamCam" give me such an utter revulsion, what a moronic nickname
You can't tell me Yrliet's romance wouldn't benefit from physical intimacy. The entire point of it is bridging an understanding. By only having the RT be the one to do so, then it's entirely removing that aspect.
Relationships are reciprocal.
>frick
Who said a single word about sex. You're confusing various anons here.
Holding hands would honestly be more than enough. Ideally with her initiating.
You're literally just being contrarian because you think that'll get a rise out of me, because you've created this strawman of the people criticizing these aspects of the story.
That's fine with me anon, but I don't get why you feel the need to do that. Ultimately it's a game. It doesn't really matter.
By the Emperor depot 4 needs to be purged but I need to learn more about the cultist and his fancy boots. Do I really have to choose the Californian bug person "Spreading anarchy on the ship is the first step toward embracing Chaos. Putting weapons into untrained hands would be even worse. What's more, the enforcers are needed to maintain oversight and order. Withdraw those demands and we will consider the rest." dialogue option or can I eliminate everyone and still find out more about the cultist?
Why can't I give them weapons to help root out chaos but also decline their pants on head moronic demand of no enforcers? If I eliminate them can I find the cultist or is owlcat shit?
How much bug did you have to deal with? I am in the middle of the chapter 2 and have been holding off because people say ch3 beyond is bugged as frick.
pretty much no bugs until ch4, pic related end of ch4
i hit a game-stopping bug in ch5. patch fixed it. there were some other more minor bugs along the way for example a few times fights would just softlock.
i'd say go for it, the bugs aren't bad imho. ofc i was playing on linux and some anons say it's worse on windows
oh yeah the wandering one? that was pretty frustrating but you just have to try all of the different paths.
it's a pain in the ass since load times are garbage even on my admittedly overpowered machine. i basically just shitposted on and off while trying all the options
okay thanks, also Wintescale is following me around, does that bug it or should I kill him? The entire quest there feels bugged tho, none of the Eldar even seem to notice Yrliet.
>Casually impregnates fish
If only. I think Jae and FemTrader are the only ones who get knocked up.
>FemTrader are the only ones who get knocked up
ELABORATE RIGHT FRICKING NOW
Nothing happens. Jimmi needs to work harder
my femtrader will ride him day and night until she's carrying quintuplets. By the Emperor's Grace
>Falling for shitposter bait
There are no children endings, an owlcat tradition (except for that one Valerie bad that mindbroke some homosexuals)
>wanting kids at M42
heh, nothing personnel mon'keigh
>cassiagays get lewd kissing scenes
>jaegays (lol) get an actual good ending
What do Yrlietgays get? I haven't seen any cute romance scene posted
>What do Yrlietgays get?
An ending where she and Marazhai sail through the space together
I get a good ending too thoughever
the one where she gets knocked up by a farmer and you raise the kid?
You’re mixing up your shitposting now
so you don't deny it. i knew i would be right, as expected of me fufu
the one where she becomes a stay at home wife that you visit whenever you finish your missions
Are you israeli? You seem really fond of lying and trying to manipulate people.
kek, got me everytime, owlshit shouldn have hired a better writer so it wouldnt haunt them till this day
You can uh
Try to hold her soul's hand? And she tolerates it?
She literally gifts you her soul
damn, bro, that's crazy. what about some benis in bagina though?
Not happening
and who fricking asked for that
SEX i want SEX do i look like a slaaneshi daemon who cares about souls SEX WITH SPACE ELF is what i want
>do i look like a slaaneshi daemon
Yes
Anon asked about cute stuff
>do i look like a slaaneshi daemon who cares about souls SEX WITH SPACE ELF is what i want
I mean.....hmm....
Can I cum on it?
you get to hold her hand while a drukhari turns her into an eldar twinkie
I've been enjoying it a lot honestly. Much better written than any romance in previous owlcat games.
It's a lot of tsundere ice queen defrosting integrated to the stuff you run into when she's in your party, quick flashes in her eyes at iconoclastic things you say or do, her appreciation for you growing with her understanding of human potential. You see, romancing an eldar requires a very high IQ, strength of character, force of will, self-restraint, and appreciation of subtlety.
I think the betrayal+forgiveness actually adds a lot to the arc, narratively. It wouldn't be same without it
Also it's pretty cute how she tilts her head to the side when you say something that suprises her, like a bird.
>I think the betrayal+forgiveness actually adds a lot to the arc, narratively. It wouldn't be same without it
Honestly, that's just KM's Tristian 2.0 situation
yeah, but tristian was hot, not some space grasshopper looking ass
homosexual
i'm not the one who wants to frick a bug
Yeah but bird-boy doesn't send you into Ancapistan.
The space elf is for true forbidden love drama enjoyers
Just without any actual love and romance.
Maybe if you’re an irredeemable coomer
Its a 100% platonic 'friend'ship. Literally no romantic love whatsoever.
You need to stop coping
Mate, play the game. The only one coping here is you. The RT disgusts her. In her 'best' ending she literally fricks off from your life forever except to say bye at the very end of it. If you think that's love you got aome major issues.
>Mate, play the game
No u
Its perfectly reasonable you're not LIIVI. We need a corsair game for an actual romance
this is what a terminally-online and functionally illiterate coombrain looks like
t.Monkeigh brained coomer
this, Yrliet's romance path is very cleverly written.
It reminds me of the whole "if you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours forever".
and she comes back at your deathbed to see the last moments of your soul
cool, i wanted to have frick with her though
learn english first, russian shill-kun
>he doesn't know
What would Harry do if he would be made the head of Rogue Trader dynasty?
call his ex
anon, she can't do that. Eldar don't frick. If they do it makes Slaanesh aware of their location
yeah they do
they really don't. The best they can do is reproduce ASAP and act like they didn't enjoy it. Their version of love is just that, love. No touch.
First the society, or the parents, that want children go on a quest to find waystones. (They're really deep in the warp). Once they have waystones for new Eldar they quickly impregnate the ones who want a baby, in secret.
The baby is then given the waystone to hold on forever, lest the baby goes to Eldar hell (Slaneesh's domain)
>they really don't
They really do
I dont like the term but you can really feel the secondary radiating from this post.
it's heavily detailed in Path of the Warrior, anon
They have casual sex just not often, read the other books
The practice of soulstone gathering, yeah. Everything else was headcanon.
then how do they make baby eldar?
If she truly loved you she would make the sacrifice just to be with you
>Just have a nice day bro! if you don't you don't really me love me!
unironically yes
I would sell my soul to frick an elf, I'm allowed to expect the same from her
she'd give up her soul if that's what it takes to NOT frick you, because you are so gross
This man took the elf koolaid, there's no redemption left.
why can't i pick this top option? Ulfar companion quest
Too many soldiers died by that time.
What is it with Owlcat and loose wine aunts?
Hags are the best
name another one
Octavia
Is not one
Wouldn't a true servant of the Emperor save the lives of his citizens? Why would it fall more under Iconoclast?
Iconoclast was named Benevolentia in beta indicating that its clearly more of a goodie two-shoes route dedicated to saving people
Dogmatic is following the teachings of the Emperor. Iconoclast is following his ideals.
Neither are inherently right or wrong (though Dogmatic is based upon the false religion made real of him so it's wrong more often while Iconoclast is more Noblebright on the whole)
Probably because you ignoring the fact that a bunch of the citizens at your parade uncovered themselves as heretics and there is nothing stopping them from pulling that shit again.
Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice…
does Yrliet seriously betray you because she thinks you're responsible for blowing up her craftworld
is she fricking stupid?
Yes. Yes she is.
>hey elantach when did you become Rogue Trader
>i dunno bout a couple months ago I guess
>oh okay
was that so difficult you tard elf
>LIES, DECEPTION!
she could literally ask anyone. any peon would know it. she's just fricking moronic
Marazhai gave her all the answers she wanted to hear, not the truth tho
right, yes, always trust a drukhari, never double check the info.
She has low INT stat for minmax purposes please understand
She knows it because I brought her on dragonus so she is fully aware I haven't even officially inherited the title.
It's just odd
even a deldar is more trustworthy than a fricking mon-keigh
At least the betrayal makes sense when she's out of the picture, cuz instead of her Achilleas betrays you
she doesn't have to
she was literally there WHEN I WAS JUST SWORN INTO OFFICER
Eldar are very prone to woman moments, even the men
too much xenoestrogens in the craftworld water
Reminder that the Horus Heresy happened because of a woman moment.
No, she betrays you for info
It doesn't matter if you show her crystal yourself and explain it, or she finds it in your room without you
>Concentrated Burst Fire
>95% chance to hit 50 damage all four shots
Why do people keep saying Bolters are bad, Argenta's only level 20
I've healed an old injury on my main character like 5 times already but it keeps coming back
is this a bug
AAAAAAH WHY CAN'T I WEAR A MONOCLE AND HAT AT THE SAME TIME FRICK YOU OWLCAT
Please tell me you can rotate the Grand Strategist's awkward 5x2 grids at will and I'm just stupid for not finding the hotkey. Please.
Is the game any good for story roleplaying or is it basically a Fallout Tactics style game
I'm baffled that even in the setting where the main protagonists are a bunch of deluded zealots the biggest moron is still the elf
40th for Jimmi's getting fricked
Jimmi is for

yeah but you have to skip on all the commoragh events for that. that's so lame
enjoy oubliettes of the inquisition
he has a whole room of people just taking care of his stuff for him
Where is his black carapace?
>fricking Space Yiff
why couldn't we have gotten a Lamenter or a Fallen Angel
No astarte from any respectable chapter would want to be part of rogue trader's "retinue" for very long I imagine. Space yiffs are the designated janny chapter.
>Lamenters
>respectable
Blood ravens then
>steals my fricking ship
It was clearly a donation
>wake up one day
>the warrant of trade is gone
blood ravens into your ship, not even once
If DoW3 didn't massively fail, you just know "Warrant Of Trade" would of made it into the Blood Ravens inventory
I don't want to spend every waking moment making sure Brother Black personicus didn't make off with half my cargo, my power sword and my Warrant of Trader
how about no
I wish we had gotten a Black Templar.
>blasts Idira way before Argenta does
>blasts knife ear on sight
>blasts (you) for picking heretical dialog option
But seriously that would have been way better than what we got
A Blackshield from the Deathwatch would’ve made a lot of sense and could go some very interesting places.
But I guess Jimmy had the Ordo Xenos side covered…
Nah there's a specific reason it's not Deathwatch.
Space Wolves are the easiest to write is as someone who would join you as they regularly hire themselves out as mercenaries, for fun.
>Tell Yrlet that I'm gonna watch over my planet
>She just says 'okay see ya' and doesn't come back
Man, I wanted a pet xenos to show off
I invite all free men to share their thoughts on the cast of the game.
https://strawpoll.com/jVyG8rdq1n7
it's hard to pick between the top five
Total Abelard supremacy, some of you heretics are alright
Abelard is essentially Garrus level of a bro, but actually does what a first mate does instead of being some person on a ship
More like Eder
Poor Idira barely Jae, I actually do like her. Solid VA too.
Fricking hell, the first time I did the opening sections of chapter 3 I kind of used toybox to breeze through to see a few things.
Now that I'm looking carefully, that fricking debuff on Aberlard is so shitt. It ruins all the athletics checks and there's a ton.
This section is pure cancer and frick Owlcat for it.
don't go down into this spot in the Ulfar world
you can't go back up
What the frick did they do to Pasqal on Mars? This homie hits like a truck
From the moment he understood the weakness of his flesh, it disgusted him. He craved the strength and certainty of steel. He aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call the temple will wither, and you will beg his kind to save you. But he is already saved, for the Machine is immortal… Even in death he serves the Omnissiah.
abandoning the limitations and weakness of the flesh does that anon.
Embrace the omnisiah
What these two anons
said
You are supposed to imagine techno organ music as ambience while you read these posts
Tech-Priests are incredibly strong. Even basic Skitarii are nothing to shake a stick at
But a fragment of what humanity could do pre emperor
There was a fragment in time where humanity was monstrously powerful
Then the eldar partied so hard the warp became unnavigable leading to a frickload of shit being lost through the galaxy
Is this game worth the price tag if I hated kingmakers alignment system?
>Suicide is lawful good
is lawful good
When does that happen
When Amiri's group attacks and you meetup with one of her clan members he asks you if you would jump off a cliff if asked by your leader and the lawful good option is yes
The game has only three alignments, dogmatic which is the imperialcuck, heretical which is the chaoscuck, and iconoclast which is the goodcuck
>the necrons are the first children of the omnissiah
emps created the necrons?
The Omnissiah isn't the Emperor. It can't be, there are dudes in the Mechanicus who were alive to witness the 30th millenium, they met the guy and know he wasn't literally a god. I think it's supposed to be the Void Dragon who basically created the Necrons kinda sorta.
I wonder if this will cause problems, I'm still getting the options to react to Cassia's flower even after having responded, will the romance just get stuck and not continue?
Thank god I'm still in act 1 so it'll probaby be a while until I start getting the companion bugs, hopefully they're fixed by then
I pirated so no updates for me.
You know you can pirate the updates too, right?
Did they not break your saves? I saw some people complaining about their saves getting corrupted after the updates.
No
Not yet, at least
Then perhaps I'll look into that, thanks.
ru tracker has a seperate download for the patch
Are there any heretic commissars in the lore? I'm thinking of creating one.
Well yeah naturally. There's all sorts of fallen guard chapters, that's how Cadia first got attacked.
Wouldn't the heretic soldiers just kill the commissar first? They're pretty deep into the propaganda after all.
Yeah, a chaos commisair would make a regular commisair look like a preschool nanny
I'm not sure if the Blood Pact has Commissar but they are basically a heretic version of the guard.
>it's pronounced ERLIET
>not RILETTE as I always thought
romance ruined
>finish act 3
>talk to a scout
>automatically teleport to ship with everyone standing around like a cutscene was supposed to play
>no one has anything new to say
Welp gets that's the end of my story
yeah uh there's supposed to be more
Guess the drukhari got the last laugh in, because they truly fricked my game
Exactly same for me. Now I know why I should not play Owlcat games on release
I've legitimately no idea how you were suppose to do the Malice fight without the cargo exploit.
I play on daring and I really imagine how much anons that run these games on higher difficulties will manage if that exploit gets patch or if they just would rather do it legitimately.
It feels like it's an exercise in pain, so whoever's out there doing that, respect to you.
Just be a damage psyker. Or squirrel away some good shit in your cargo hold of you want to cheese is this badly.
Well yeah I did the cargo exploit. I'm not trying to frustrate myself with this game.
I just feel it's really badly designed fight given how badly they gimp you. Malice is hard enough but throwing 3 kabalite warriors with their insane dodge rates at you is just unfair.
which one was the malice fight? i don't remember any memorable fights with someone like that
The snake in Coommorragh that asks you to kill the commissar.
oh yeah, that's right. i got wiped on that the first time i tried it.
since you don't have your equipment, you can't resolve stack like you'd expect to. i had to live through a round of attacks from them which was pretty spicy. If you use abelard to AOE taunt you can live through the worst of it. Try to use cover as well. If you survive to round two then your dps will clean up like it usually does
The real tough fight is that mutant thing that spawns where you found abelard. It gets turn interrupts and 1HKO your closest party member when it takes damage. pic related, that's it in the top left
i must have restarted BG3 thirty times.
yeah. still, it's fun.
Is that thing an optional fight? Do you get anything cool from it?
It's the first boss in the deldar city.
Be a psyker, I guess. Abelard just sat in a group of 10 dudes with parry stance on while my RT baked malice to death
Okay, seriously, is the difficulty bugged or something? Is Normal mode harder than Unfair? Malice was a piece of piss for me, I barely registered it as a thing I did. This cannot be normal.
Daring* not normal.
I'm sure it's just my build that isn't super optimal, but still. I would never have figured it'd be easy.
>Get into void fight
>Can't win
>Reload and come back later
How in the hell are we supposed to know how difficult these fights are and why in God's name am I not allowed to build reputation with the navy to get decent ship parts without trophies.
fly away and spam torpedoes
Yeah well 4 pirates that can void jump then unload into me aren't an option for that strategy.
The Delf cruisers that shit out fighters are impossible to beat like this. They'll blast your torpedos if they can't reach you and they're faster than you.
Go to Dargonus and you can do two colony projects that each give you 5k Navy rep
>Get to first void fight
>It doesn't give you a tutorial of the upgrades or officers
Rather weird decision, I loaded an earlier save to set up and upgrade everything.
>why in God's name am I not allowed to build reputation with the navy to get decent ship parts without trophies.
you can do it. tier 2 and 3 buildings in the capital planet
Which gods can I deal with throughout the story, other than Tzeentch? Does Slaanesh offer anything?
kek I thought this was a battlefleet gothic armada thread. Frick 40k tards lmao sunk cost fallacy tribe
>end of chapter 5
>want to restart
why
the curse of every crpg emjoyer
I'm at the beginning of 4. I hear there are necrons. Because these humies aren't fricked enough.
>Get through Act 1 twice
>Restart both times
I keep doing it in every modern RPG and I don't know why.
Can you lesbosex the eldar?
>sex
>he doesn't know
you can flick your own bean while thinking of her, but she won't even do that
>everyone starts shitting themselves during the Aurora fight
We have a fricking navigator on the team, are CSM really that tough?
Can't dodge psyker abilities!
By default, any marines are fricking terrifying. That is unless their opposition has plot armor today, which happens quite often. This particular marine was more of a jobber, in reality he should be expected to wipe a floor with player's party.
moron.
Lorewise, Pasqal alone has a fair shot to solo him.
I was shitting bricks when he first appeared. I just knew and had feeling it would be a tough fight and god damn it was.
Took me 3 attempts on Daring with the second being very close but managed to take beat it on the third. Holy shit got so excited at the last shot that I actually shouted out BURN HERETIC!!!! The Emperor protects!
how in the FRICK are you supposed to beat this fight. only barely won a fight with ONE of those guys and now torpedo ult is on cooldown
i cheated
I don't blame you. Owlcat is 100% going to rebalance those fights, fricking necrons.
Did the update nerf the damage of one handed melee weapons?
Mr top moment so far was actually pretty early game.
Argenta’s delight and awe when you let her see Big E’s signature on your warrant.
>press the advantage
>lidless stare
holy shit they never stood a chance
>the dialogue if you tell Yrliet to keep going with the torturing/psychic feeding in return for your forgiveness
Jesus fricking okay Owlcat I forgive her goddamn!
Oh, she functions like a deldar after they are done with her? I killed her immediately. Angri.
She doesn't. I think if you leave her behind she gets rescued by the Harlequinn that's mucking about.
But if you tell her to keep going this is the result
Actually a huge gutpunch. This game knows how to twist the knife of someone that's trying to go full dogma I think. Or maybe that's too much empathy on my part.
>corruption shit
Nice. Does it actually turn her evil?
no. she'll just mope around like a beaten dog
such is the fate of anyone who betrays the Imperium. Filthy xenos especially
There's too many psychopaths to feel that anon.
She deserves far worse.
post it
uh, so is moving during my turn and then not doing anything, causing the game to be stuck forever, an ability of this guy?
bros is this quest bugged or something? I'm in the Tenebris Aquae system right now and there's nothing I can do. There's an area on one of the planets I can see but can't go to on account of going there before I encountered Yrliet. Did I frick up?
These are all ships in space, not anything on the planets.
That's even more confusing because there was a battle going on but entering it just made me fight what I assume are dark eldar ships and that's that. It didn't even update the questline or prompt me with dialogue of any sort.
Maybe bugged, who knows.
Yes, it's bugged, use toybox to complete that part and it will trigger the dialogue with the elf
>Two more ship choices
I'm glad that I remembered that CreamAPI is a thing.
The Yrilet romance is so clever because it's written to filter the people who she'd hate IRL to begin with
weeabshit coomers with weak characters are eternally btfo, no wonder why they're so mad
>Didn't do the prison planet before the ceremony
Good thing I had an autosave, almost skipped it. Was that a point of no return?
Is every companion supposed to be in Commorragh?
No. Only party members.
what are the others doing? Mounting a rescue mission I hope?
Apparently. Your 100% rescue yourself though.
Only the ones you brought with you
>Only the ones you brought with you
Something must be fricked then because Idira is here despite me not bringing her, and inversely Jae is not.
Curious
Do you miss out on anything if you arrive incognito?
-You can skip having to ask Leige to get rid of the “zap-a-Xenos” sideshow
-you can get the guards to let you into the plague area without asking liege (still need to do other mission first)
- The whole funeral quest is very different
That’s what I’ve noticed so far.
I'm disappointed with the space ship game. I was hoping that we'd be able to get a small fleet, and have seevral ships accompany us to battle, this is dumb
>just got to chapter 2
>have to leave town for the qeekend
dammit i want to play. been awhile since a game hooked me so much.
It has SHIP COMBAT? Damn, I might actually have to play it
why is owlcat determined to put out absolutely mediocre games?
they tried their best okay
They tried their best with wotr and made a legit GOTC. RT is, well, while I enjoyed it, it's worse than KM.
everything else about their games are so interesting BUT the gameplay.. what a fricking shame
>suddenly bald gays
the free rent must feel so good
No, all of their games are pretty fricking bad. Divinity 2, Draogn Commander, OS1, and 2, all awful to plain bad and boring. BG3 is mid at best.
>everyone else is making shit games, therefore it is ok to make shit games
just because Samirs are eating shit, doesn't mean you have to, Ranjesh
Nah, RT is good. 🙂
its definitely what he thinks as well
there's loads they missed on. for starters, would it kill them to pan the camera when people are talking?

>tfw DAI did the platonic romance better than RT
imagine being worse than DAI at something
dai didn't have platonic romance
Josephine is a platonic romance
Josephine not having a sex scene because bioware is lazy doesn't mean she's "platonic"
That is the literal definition of platonic. Affectionate without physical contact.
No, what I mean is that you do frick Josephine, bioware simply didn't include a sex scene because reasons, but there is no reason to assume it's a sexless relationship
You do have physical contact though.
>Josephine
>platonic
Just because you don't frick doesn't make it platonic
for frick's sake there is no such thing as platonic romance. and even if there was josephine is not that. she's just waiting for marriage
What platonic romance did dai have?
Since when DAI has a platonic romance
DAI didn't have that DA2 did
it wasn't platonic, it was celibate.
Please get it through your fricking head that platonic romance is oxymoron and doean't exist. Eros and storge are two very different things.
Asexual* romance
And even then, asexual only by 21st century human sensibilities. Not to a fictional 41st millennium space elf.
Asexual for eldar, too, since Eldar have normal sex too. Exodite, DEldar, corsair, craftworlder, doesn't fricking matter, they all have sex. Just the RT gets completely and utterly cucked.
Yeah, with other eldar. Unless they're weirdos.
DAI also had infinitely better elf romance
Sera is shit. Solas is pure ludo kino that I can't deny
Was talking about Solas, yes. I honestly forgot that Sera actually was a romance option.
>DAI
Frick Bioware for not letting me sex up that fricking shortstack scout. Only good woman in the game, goddamnit. Cassandra a close second doe.
>Go to my planet to suppress a riot
>The "riot" is actually me getting attacked by a bunch of starships
Incredible.
anyone who likes pasqal is an autist
He's my special boy, hits like a godamn truck
>finest hour with upgrade 1 and 4
>cassia
I usually go for elf pussy in games but I'm falling for the fish just by how fricking useful she is with my commissar. The Aurora fight was literally nothing with her.
would cassia be better received if she had a french accent?
no. i would hate her even more and i'm not even a bong
"Platonic romance" is an oxymoron, just say sexless or chaste romance. Platonic means friendly and non-romantic.
There is emotional romance just no physical sex with the elf (unless you count soul sex as sex).
>there is romance, just no romance
Can you go one sentence without contradicting yourself.
Romance =/= sex
By that logic those Catholic (or whatever religions/denominations do it) couples that wait until marriage to frick aren't in a "real relationship" till they get married just because they didn't frick till then.
The romance aspect is emotional sex is the carnal part.
sex is expected eventually between catholic couples. you are not having sex and it is not expected ever. she is not physically attracted to you, so it's not romance. you might be in love with her, but she is not in love with you. cope
>but she is not in love with you
You didn't play the game lmao. She is, she has soul sex with your RT. She just doesn't want physical sex.
>soul sex
sure, buddy, sure. enjoy your imaginary gf
>soul sex
*laughs in asari*
Even the Asari can bang a human.
Exactly
The fact you desperately want to interpret her platonic soul scene as sexual only exposes you as a coping coomer.
No she doesn’t. The most you get is hand holding. Anything more breaks the romance. Considering that craftworlders are such ridiculous autists that courtship can take a thousand years, that’s something I guess.
>The romance aspect is emotional sex is the carnal part.
That's just plain wrong
You're missing the part were in your example sex is still very much expected to happen. Waiting till after marriage is not the same as not having sex at all. Erotic love, and therefore romance, is inextricably linked with sex and physical intimacy. A relationship without these can be many things, but certainly bot a romantic one. Filial love or storge for example. But eros aka romantic love ALWAYS includes sex.
As such Yrliet doesn't have a romance.
>But eros aka romantic love ALWAYS includes sex.
>As such Yrliet doesn't have a romance.
False because you're defining eroticism by your own conception of it.
Not that I disagree there shouldn't be a physical component here and I think that's a negative to the romance story told, but still.
Should I be going tactician or strategist with my stats?
Strategist is too irritating to play for long and feel really weak.
I went GS and spent all the talents on psyker talents. GS is good for only one thing: you always move first. Between your officer abilities, bio psyker talents, officer ult, you can usually win every fight before turn 1 is over
tactician is okay, you can deal a lot of damage with psyker abilities using it.... but both the GS and MT ults are trash compared to the officer one
How's the game
I also have no idea about the Rogue Trader setting, just general 40K stuff
i'm at what looks like the final fight
it's great warhammer kino. game itself is mid, but satisfying.
looking back at my 100 or so hours playing the game, i should probably have read a book instead lol
I love it. It's not perfect but i'm having a grand time. Owlkek's best so far imo
It is easily Owlcat's best game, by a fricking huge margin. And no I'm not just saying that because I like 40k because I like Pathfinder too.
I love Nohomos so much it's unreal
>anons are already finishing
Fricking hell im still on chapter one and i was day one purchase
Wageslaving as the emperor demands
>tfw slept 2 hours in 3 days to keep playing
what is the average lifespan of a non augmented human in 40k if they somehow survived long enough to die of natural causes
Depends on the planet you're in. On a hive world or manufactorum like 20-30 years, on a capital world like terra 100
What is Terra like at this point? Is it just a gated community of the most influential nobles or a big hive world?
hive world for the cream of the crop
Nobles, priests and bureaucrats
An actual goddamn nightmare of a world. The literally worst planet you could live on as average human (in real space anyway)
It's simultaneously a glorious palace to humanity's greatness an an absolute shithole. Because basically everything that isn't the Imperial Palace and where all the nobles and beauracrats live is basically a planet-wide slum.
and* an
Platonic romance is a fricking friendship you stupid copium-filled cucks
So how much of Role-playing and MUH CONSEQUENCES are there
is this the T posing bug because they do NOT look dead
It’s amazing how many people are into rpg romance for the 1 line of implied sex at the end
Imagination is a hell of a drug, you should try it
Too many people with unrewarding or nonexistent sex and social lives IRL get into this hobby tbh
>1 line of implied sex at the end
Well first, it's not implied at all with their other romances
Second, if I added a single line saying that your romance option killed and raped your dog (in that order) would you have a problem with that? It's just a single minor line, after all
RPGs are for sexless loners who lack affection and adventures irl
B*oware inflicted catastrophic damage on rpg genre with their shit by causing people perceive it as some kind of dating sims. If only there was a way to fix it. Well, it looks like Owlcat is trying, considering how all their games make romancegays asshurt.
>considering how all their games make romancegays asshurt
Not me though
They don’t though. Only the autistic cuck fetishists get upset.
I for one love the Yrliet caged bird references in her romance path. It has a nice touch of realism and build up. That said, I still want to mind break her into my xenos pet and have her wear a collar. I don't know what's wrong with me
Based but opposite for me.
Iconoclast chads won HARD
based. Yrliet makes a great caged bird wife. Also in act 4 when you go to the jungles, why does the Alderai attack you, even if you have Yrliet in the party?
I'm at that part too, it's only one group. That whole planet is just bugged to hell I think. Her quest and that of Winterscales breaks too.
do we wait for another patch?
That's what Im doing.
Can I go to footfall then for the time being or is that area unfinished too, and when is the next patch?
>caged bird references
qrd?
i don't even want to frick my hypothetical eldar waifu i just want to hold her hands and frolic in the fields with her.
>terminal coomers are seething because they couldn't frick space elf so they're coping by forcing the "it's not real romance even if she loves you, love must equal sex bro" narrative
Coomers should all be killed honestly, such pathetic, insipid, backbiting creatures.
At least their genes will never spread beyond the dried tissues in their rooms.
She literally doesnt love you as a romantic partner (or person, really, given her endings). Play the fricking game instead of coping on Ganker.
Lmao she does
Which part of literally physically repulsed at the mere thought of even touching you, not wanting anything romantic with you and fricking off from your life forever is difficult for you to grasp?
>he's quoting screenshots/ending slides and didn't play the game
Sad
Such a bizarre romance considering she gave you her spirit stone.
>Hey, ROgue Trader, why aren't you married yet
>I am amrried though
>can we see the wife
>N-no...
>Why?
>I-it's a s-soul marriage
>O-ok, any heirs on the way?
>Y-yeah... After we have soul sex again maybe
The absolute state of the von Valancius dynasty
the emperor in his wisdom, has declared no tolerance for xenos lovers for this exact reason.
Which companions can end up leaving depending on what ideological side you pick?
>terminal cucks are seething because they couldn't frick space elf so they're coping by forcing the "it's 2deep4u romance you don't need to have sex to be romantically involved, the unity of bodies and souls is a meme" narrative
lol, coomer boy is angry. what are you gonna do coomer boy? edit a few more screenshots?
I wonder if your mother cries herself to sleep some nights at what a sad creature you've become
Keep coping yrligay
Is this the new cuckposter cope now that people stopped believing the fish one
Jae bros get to sit back and watch the coomers and cuckposters argue about Cassia and Yrliet
>meanwhile playing a female RT thats romancing Heinrix
Gotta get that Inquisitorial dick to get to even higher places and status in the Imperium
>not letting him retire and spend every waking moment with his waifu (you)
shame. Imagine the number of heirs you'd be able to concieve and give birth to with his virile biomancy enhanced semen
How stable is the game right now bug and performancewise, wait a month or two or is it actually OK to jump in for once in an Owlcat gaimu
Do you need grenadier to do anything with throwables? They seem so bad without them
>frick nobles they make me want to kill myself
these tech priests are pretty based actually
Why is half of every RT thread arguing about fricking romance which is a small part of the game?
Why are people trying to autistically force some "cuckoldry" narrative that isn't there every thread?
First owlcat thread?
Mental illness
russian shills from some discord, you can always tell it's them from the general lack of articulation and braindead takes
better to ignore tbh
Ganker has a community of owlkek [sic] schizo neets who do this stuff all day. it's just the same couple of homosexuals, you can tell because they use weird in-group words like "froggy" and are always having schizo breakdowns thinking everyone is out to get them or there's some one guy stalking them or whatever
it's unfortunate since this game is fun that we have to brush elbows with these guys
>you can tell because they use weird in-group words like "froggy"
Kek I love newbies
Reminds me of that one homosexual that thought Farquaad was a Larian employee who shilled the game
They're kinda entertaining in their patheticness, how they even coordinate with edited screenshots and specific meme images and scheduling on their shilling
what exactly mindbroke them? The kingmaker valerie stuff? Damn, these permalosers must have been keepipng this up for years
Schizos constantly spamming their cuck fanfiction are everywhere. Ganker has it's fair share of them too. Can't discuss WataOshi without half the thread dedicated to it. You just have to get used to it.
I don't get it. How can someone dedicate so much time of their life to shilling against a game company and romances forcing cuckshit.
I get it becoming a gag and posting it for a while but it's been years ffs, don't they have a fraction of a life?
some people have really sad and unfulfilling lives. and they repay the world by shitting up what little social spaces they have access too, like imageboards.
better if they died alone
>don't they have a fraction of a life?
i've met a few of these guys. they're former alcoholics barely making ends, disabled types on welfare, mentally ill people being supported by family, that sort of a thing. it's no understatement to say that they have nothing going for them.
that aside, i always though "having a life" was some sort of cope by guys stuck neck deep in obligations they don't really want.
am I the only one that finds the cuck posting funny?
It’s less funny when they genuinely believe it
no, i find it funny too. the fact that waifutards take it seriously is even funnier though.
It's a staple of every Owlcat thread
>froggy
He's famous here too since he spammed cuckshit and seethed thar nenio wasn't romancable for ages both here and on the /vg/ threads
wtf this is utterly unbelievable, how did her 6-9 damage shitbolter kill a high level rogue trader and an arch-militant each in a single shot
It was her even worse autopistol, anon.
If you examine the corpses it comments on a single tidy autopistol round to the forehead for the bodyguard.
She has one in her second weapon set when you meet her.
Probably changed it out and vendored it as trash without a thought…
>autopistol round in the crime scene
I remember that but the screenshot and dialogue says
>bolter discharge
minor consistency error in the writing, someone should report
She used both, dummies. You notice the promethium from her bolter.
>nothing but waifugays seething
the menu navigation visual novel community is thriving
It’s either that or elitist minmax build autist running all mercenary parties.
Dunno why people expected anything else from Owlkek to be honest tho. Their immense and burning hatred for their core audience is pretty well known at this point.
Tencent shill detected
I don't think it's hatred. They just feed and get hard on pain. Literally deldars
the yrilet romance is good because it's a good story, simple as
people who care about videogame romance and specific sex lives of imaginary characters this much need to get a life
Waifugaying should be a bannable offense. These are literal subhumans that poison any thread they enter. This shit need a containment board.
>why did the drukhari act like a drukhari
Jeeee I don't know Yrliet it's almost like they're THE GODDAMN FRICKING DRUKHARI!
You know, the fricks that thrive on the torture and pain of literally everyone including their own people. Those fellows that still practice the same depraved shit THAT LEAD TO THE BIRTH OF THE CHAOS GOD CURRENTLY FEASTING ON EVERY SINGLE KNIFE EAR SOUL THAT ENTERS THE WARP
Surely, SURELY someone read this dialogue and realized how moronic it sounds. I'm not even saying anymore that the betrayal's moronic that's been beaten to death. But how the frick can she EVER FRICKING THINK a drukhari would tell her the goddamn truth in ANY capacity. Is she literally moronic? As in sub room temp IQ.
Eldar and Deldar work together often, it's not like High Elves and Dark Elves at all
Working together and trusting are two VERY different things and they only do so in extreme scenarios.
I don't mind moronation that's well written.
This is just stupid oversight of the lore.
Eldar are moronic, what else is new?
Rangers often work with Corsairs and Dark eldarx
What the frick does Unsafe and Dangerous routes actually fricking do?
more dangerous warp encounters i think
I played both of the pathfinder games and absolutely hated them. is this game different enough that I might actually like it? can you get cool xenos tech like an eldar starcannon or a tau stealth suit? are there beeg slaaneshi breasts? can you bang the sister of battle?
it is different enough. But it depends on what you disliked about pathfinder. how did you like the gameplay of wasteland 3 and x-com? because rt combat is very close to that
I liked old xcom and new xcom was ok. the thing I hated most about pathfinder was the way that you were expected to use a bunch of spellcasters and if you wanted to play a martial focused party you were basically playing on punishment mode. is this game the same way with psykers? can their heads randomly explode every time they try to cast a spell like the lore says they should?
>expected to use a bunch of spellcasters and if you wanted to play a martial focused party
All you had to do was buff your martial and then go to town hitting things
This game is kinda similar, don't expect to solo everything by having an entire team of warriors and soldiers
buff with what? don't say a spellcaster or a scroll that only spellcasters can use.
so a full dakka party is viable and won't feel like I am playing on 2 difficulties higher?
YAnon, you know spellcasters can be martials too right? A cleric can fight, a wizard can pick levels of eldritch knight and fight. The only spells you need are the buffing ones
every class has buffs, not just spellcasters. i haven't tried it myself, but a non-psyker party would probably be possible
>is this game the same way with psykers?
No. you can eschew psykers entirely but they are useful. especially early on
>can their heads randomly explode every time they try to cast a spell like the lore says they should?
well, it's possible but doesn't happen often. One of your companion psykers is more prone to head exploding demon summoning behaviour due to her background, but, like i said, doesn't happen often
I like iconoclast because it's fun to roleplay a decent person frustrated because they're stuck in a violent grimdark setting
>decent person in the grim darkness of the 41st millennia
We don't do that here
The Emperor would smile on me, I know it
My noblebright officer's Iconoclast because he was raised Roman Catheric like Ollanius Pius
I find it funny that some people were saying iconoclast = imperial truth
While honestly seems more in line some form of pseudo-christian philosophy given how extreme (to the point of being illogical) some of the options to forgive are
It works great for commissar since you can roleplay one who's just tired of all this shit
Yeah that's what I am. I picked the darkest hour where I lost all my men and haunted by it.
That's fine, play how you want.
>Rykad Minoris decision
Frick, I kinda don't know who to listen to on this one...
why do people hate yrliet again? She is pretty much my enslaved xenos pet elven wife now.
You're the pet, she's there because a monkeigh that acts like an eldar amuses her
Then why does she listen to me and kill her farseer.
Because the Farseer hid the presence on slaanesh on a maiden world from her
lol, he doesn't know about the 2nd Farseer you convince Yrliet to kill.
I haven't gotten that far yet
Need to know for heretical playthrough, do i let the final dawn ritual complete?
This has to be somehow bugged.
I know for a fact I did all 3 of the aeldari saving missions perfectly. Is her dialogue just always like this? Then what's the point in doing those missions perfectly if it changes nothing, not even dialogues like this?
Yeah that wasn't like that for me I don't think.
But I'm sure I did them all right. All of them ended in goddamn failure. No matter what I did
One of them all of them were already dead. The other was the one that EVEN if you get through the super hard persuasion check, any of the three choices after (bring the aeldar aboard the ship, give them provisions or direct them to Janus) leads to shit and the last one was the eldar ship in the minefield which is fricked because even if you get through the minefield fine everyone's ALSO already dead.
I've literally no idea what you could possibly do. Was it because I didn't give Janus to the Farseer I wonder?
Also she's pretty guilty, every other dialogue piece is her saying that.
I am bamboozled.
weird. im an evil chaotic frick and she's a gibbering pathetic mess right now but I let her live to repay me and she isnt as haughty as your pics. might be a bug or something that will be improved in next patch or the enhanced edition they do
Can you guys post the dialogue you got? For archival's sake
Either you fricked something or some flag is broken
same thing happened to me, it was offputting given how guilty she felt in every other talk to the point of offering to be tortured
i even forgave her on the black city after we talked for a bit
In mine she's bending over backwards out of guilt betraying me and regrets it. I still feel we missed a frick ton of context and cutscenes like with the inquisitor and her finding the artefact back home.
At least the dark elf city plot goes hard, even though my psyker chad could have blown off all of their heads
I wouldn't be suprised if it was bugged.
How's the patch, also is casia romance finally fixed?
>thought the patch broke loads of equipment for me
>realised it actually bug fixed a lot of stuff I wasn't meant to be equipping on party members and broke my cheese starts
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
huh really? can you give an example of exploit equips that was not supposed to happen? I think I noticed that the eldar sniper rifle from jae was mistakenly one hand and could have a sword in offhand (which funnily enough appeared a bit like a bayonet). but you couldn't equip that anyways without toybox
yea a lot of delf and efl equipment, the preorder/dlc items were only meant for the captain and a lot fo the items that said you needed a certain alignment level could be equipped on anyone and broke cassia even more for me on unfair. Now she's still strong but I miss her popping heads the entire battle
I swear my RT's damage completely fell off after the patch
Operative Assassin sniper chads, did we win? Our op killing edge was untouched.
Forge worlds Crime Lords are even more broken now because the talent they fixed, godspeed sniperbro
How do you get the patch if you've pirated the game?
The image that buck broke the cuck posters.
>Guard my sleep
What is this shit? This is basically being relegated to the cuck shed.
you do realize guard my sleep means sex right?
A lot of reaching here.
lets just sleep together in bed, no we won't sex. Why are all cuck posters moronic? The scene after literally has Cassia put back on her stockings in front of you.
>The scene after literally has Cassia put back on her stockings in front of you.
Of course, after guard her and her bull.
kek, at this point we keep you cuck posters around as the thread jester. You never fail to get a good chuckle out of me.
it translates to "I'm going to lie down on your bed and go to bed. Feel free to do what.ever.you. want. with. me 😉
you freaking autist.
>walk her home gently.jpg
just rape her when she's asleep
>Raping fishwife instead of having lovey dovey consensual sex with her
Disgusting
Is the problem with cuckposters that they're genuinely autistic?
I have 45 hours logged and finally rolled a character I like. I am finally going to make it out of this damn prologue and explore the stars. Touch fish puss and maybe, by the God-Emporer's grace, kill some fricking xenos.
>Find Wasteland Wayfarer
>Found the Journal, seemed 'normal' for 40k
>Got to the last entry
Oh no
Post it
No, you guys get to find it yourself, posting the entry would ruin it.
Share?
was that the genestealer thing? I kill so many xenos it's hard to keep track
Does the Never Stop Shooting talent work for melee attacks? The name suggests otherwise but the talent itself doesn't specify anything other than "attacks".
I've just tested it and confirmed that you do get NSS stacks from melee attacks.
she chunky
I really feel there should be more talents for power armor, something that could make it have extra deflection in the open or count as cover in the open. At least its been fun putting the heaviest guns on Ulfar and turning him into a battle tank, he's better than argenta at least and less preachy
>less preachy
Mannnn, frick that space furry. Sister of Battle all the way.
>he keeps her around even after finding out what she did to his predecesor
HERESY HAS ONLY ONE CURE, AND WE BOTH KNOW WHAT THAT IS.

So, did anyone actually ever seen the version of game where RT can talk with Yrliet in Act 2 and avoid betrayal? Or it's just beta?
Isn't it basically worthless to save the nobles from the planet? It's not like they have any wealth left to hand over.
does toy box work with the latest patch?
Why is this game so fricking easy?
I'm playing on the second hardest difficulty, about to crank it up to Unfair in hopes of it becoming an actual video game and not a curbstomping simulator.
The enemies literally never get a turn. I kill everything in the first round, every single time. Officer goes first, commands Argenta, Argenta commits genocide and wipes half the map, wiping half the map lets her take a heroic action to wipe the remaining, and then if there are any survivors I get to use MY heroic action to absolutely 100% ensure every motherfricker on the planet is dead.
I just did the xenos hunt with Calligos and the writing indicates that I was supposed to notice things about him during the fight, like certain suspicious battle quotes and weird abilities he uses, but I never fricking saw any of it because all the enemies were dead before he got a single turn!
If they're trying to drop hints and shit during combat, then clearly players aren't intended to be nuking entire encounters in round one. Did they not test the game at all? How did they fail to realize how fricking easy this is?
Bad game design, they just gave the players cool toys without thinking about whether or not they turn the game into a cakewalk. Turns out they do.
I'm also feeling this. I was excited for the patented owlcat difficulty spike that I heard anons talking about in act 3, and while it was refreshing to have to scavenge for welfare gear and take unfair fights that ended too soon. Enemies definitely got inflated health pools and new abilities but combat still ends in the first turn. Two turns tops.
Yeah I think they made a mistake with the momentum stuff honestly. Too much action economy bullshittery and stuff the player can do that the enemies can't
And that's even before we get self-buff scaling, 50 stacks of versatility arch-militants, or 300 will cassia
What gives so many versatility stacks?
I'm exaggerating a bit but I was on 350 ballistics skill on argenta the pic and webm-related fight where I instaggibed marzipan as well as his boss or gay lover or w/e. I just alternate singles and bursts as needed
The big thing is getting reckless rush (which doubles your momentum and halves it back once your turn ends) and the feat that makes it cost 0ap so you're basically running double versatility every turn. I think she was up to 40 in that one
I think break through doubles your stacks. If you are about to do battle winning damage it's probably worth clicking it.
I'm playing on the hardest difficulty mode (Unfair + NoCassia) and i find it really difficult.
Could you explain how? I'm really struggling to understand. Does your Argenta not just shred everything in one round? She literally takes out chapter bosses in one burst fire for me. Do you not have an officer? Is it low hit chance, or low damage?
>Does your Argenta not just shred everything in one round?
Not immediately, it requires at least two turns of build up.
>Do you not have an officer?
No actually, since my only officer is Jae and i often don't bring her.
>Is it low hit chance, or low damage?
What?
Anyway, sounds to me like the main issue is officers letting classes that take a while to get going get going immediately.
Oh, yeah, seems like that's probably it. Officers are just cracked. I'd probably be a lot less effective if my MC wasn't an Officer.
Bring it down is fricking insane and then finest hour just lets your dps (usually cassia) run rampant. My Aurora fight lasted 3 turns because of officer buffs.
What are the must have talents for an officer? Can't Cassia take care of it while focusing everyhthing else on her navigator abilities?
>Can't Cassia take care of it
You could run 4 officers if you wanted.
Really dig that the dark eldar raiders just run away nonstop without disengaging combat. Really fun shit
So how much tech is actually lost and how is being horded by the Mechanicus?
>So how much tech is actually lost
All of it.
Not even memeing, whatever glimpses of old tech we get are so advanced compared to usual Imperium shit it's not even funny. Some of the best weapon designs Imperium uses (like terminator armor) are repurposed industrial equipment. 40k world is post-apocalyptic world where humanity never really recovered and instead learned to run civilization with remaining 1% of bygone era.
As of how much admech hoard, likely nothing important that they can replicate, since it's a matter of their own security as well.
The AdMech loves to hoard, but it's more because they're the only one able to really use/make the tech in the Imperium, and also because all the forge worlds are in ferocious competitions with each others and want to be the winner of their Quest of Knowledge.
Which is the reason why the Imperium is so schizo tech. Mars is genuinely able to create marvels the like of which not seen since the Dark Age of Technology, we're talking miniature personal forcefield or teleporters or gravtech or impossible weapons: which Mars builds maybe ten pieces a year, in an Imperium with a quadrillion demand.
As a result, the average tech level in the Imperium is what a random Hive World can make (with the help of the Admech), which is quite low. But when necessary the Imperium can throw surprisingly high level tech around.
>people still don‘t understand why owlcat games never have kids in romance endings
Because they're fricking lazy and/or don't want to offend lgbtqwerty homosexuals when it comes to bisexual romance options?
could have at least allowed kids for the strictly straight options. I WANT AUTISTIC PSYKER KIDDOS
any heresybros know how to summon the daemons in the dark elf city? It says go to the pit after ripping open the warp seams but I cant see anything.
Is there any way to walk around the parts of your ship? Like in the beginning you could go to the navigator area and parts of the decks?
No it sucks, you get to fight all across it later with the random battles from void travel but it seems like walking around might have been cut. I've put a few suggestions for it through the ingame bug report though
Which books can I read to get more insights on how the Emperor would act?
The Last Church
Some Horus Heresy books I guess
where the frick do you find it. I need this weapon, im running a las build rn.
I am a iconoclast operative assassin who made a build with las guns for killing edge. That shit slaps, I just need this new op gun now.
in the room before the final boss, up the stairs
I have this game since I helped back it but I haven't installed it yet, how are the space battles?
>it's actually game over if you refuse the shitter doc
...this is a bit fricking moronic. He took out the fricking worm thing from me. He's got NOTHING left to threaten me with. Why the frick do I do without even a goddamn boss battle. I figured eventually it'd result in a hard as balls encounter. This is just stupid.
>He's got NOTHING left to threaten me with.
you're one foot in the grave, so much so that you didn't even notice him conduct surgery on you. of course he can kill you
I was standing though, at least my character's model was. I assume I was back up
But still, how about SOMEONE FRICKING SHOOT HIM!
I dunno Yrliet maybe use that fricking special eldar gun the crazy RT fellow gave me
OR DUNNO PASQAL HOW ABOUT THAT GODDAMN MELTA ULTIMA!
did you take the dialogue path where in a nano second he can insert blades into all your nerve spots, disable your body, bring it back from the dead and turn you into a sentient soup that feels itself being digested when eaten?
lived like a b***h, died like a b***h before even getting a turn
wasn't even strong enough to survive the first bolt from the burst lmao truly b***hmade
i like how far his head rolled though, pretty metal death, even if his fighting skills were disappointing
doesn't seem like he would've been a valuable addition to the retinue anyways.
cute pet
Ah, I see you also missed the space marine completely.
Well done
Wait, am I not supposed to get him after? He's in the cage of the fleschrafter but I just get fluff when I try talking to him
I may have bugged out that first arena fight by killing everything too fast. I saw a cutscene of him killing stuff with a knife but after that I ended the fight in one round and didn't have anything to do with the astartes
You are supposed to ask the flesh crafter to let him out to help you fight. I don't know maybe you can still get him after the fight maybe not
Huh, I did ask him but he said something like
>The chasm is full of useless malcontents for you to pick up and add to your arena team dont' bother me
Do I need to do give him more bodyparts or something?
R8 my squad
9/10
>get to footfall
>16 hours played
>want to restart as a different archetype
every single time I play an rpg
>started playing last thursday
>already restarded thrice
🙂
One of those times was because of a bug, but yeah...
There isn't much to restart with
>Ranged character
>Melee character
>Ranged character but worse
>Character that passes the turn to ranged or melee character
Some homeworld or origin traits can be significant, but ultimately you just pick whatever benefits one of the above.
>Yrliet offering to go under the knife for me
...I think I broke her.
send a screen shot to the scene.
Didn't pick the option the second time and ain't reloading a third
She gets piercing through the spirit stone and other bits so he can collect samples
I?m already pissed enough this fricker wont give back Cassia and can insta kill me without a fight. Ain't giving him anything more than the game requires.
>literally do a daemon summoning in the delf city
>summon back the bodies of the commissar and malice into eternal suffering
>nobody bats an eye
which of these lets me shackle the c'tan shard myself
Doesn't matter. 1-2 for rp
My interactions with the 40k setting have been pretty cursory, just the first two Dawn of War games and Darktide, but the idea of it having romance is so weird to me. And it's weird to me that so many people in these threads are fixated on romances.
Coomers and waifugays are mentally ill
>And it's weird to me that so many people in these threads are fixated on romances.
If you see ten different posts talking about something in a thread, that doesn't mean they were written by ten different people.
that's because you're a secondary that's never thought about the setting beyond muh grimdark
40k is a lot like Dune, which is very thinly stole ideas from. Just because most of the games focus on the war fronts doesn't mean a lot is going on outside of war. Its like saying there was no romance happening in WW2 even hundrds of miles from the front or whatever its just something ppl need to get used to. Also its a very minor part of the story waifugays gonna waifugay
>40k is a lot like Dune
When you finally read it, it turns out to be a lot of people standing around in rooms pontificating and very little of the mystical martial arts shit?
why are krak grenades so useless
Should I put the shard of bloodstone on Abelard or keep the litany of exhaustion
does the data alter of sacred analysis have an answer in the electro whatever place on rykad minoris
can you get a railgun in this game? does plasma randomly explode and kill you?
What's better for officer in terms of buffing: tactician or strategist?
I want to make Cassia even more deadly
honestly I don't think it matters for her, yeah sure the bring it down thing is always nice but her navigator powers are all she needs
Tactician buffs your damage, strategist gives you are buffs
Aoe*
Then I guess I'll go with strategist since my commissar can't land a shot half the time to save his life but his FEL is through the roof
Opinions on pyromancy? Having to set yourself on fire seems thematic, but moronic, and the damage doesn't seem great on paper.
It's one of the best psyker builds
>
Nobody told me there are ship talents that increase scrap from successful battles. Holy shit people complaining about ship combat are losers.
>Iconclast ending doesn't mention that RT launches massive deforestisation campaign on all planets of his realm
OH NO NO NO
in act 4 forest I am lost. is the map just bugged?
>no choice to Tell Argenta I'm glad she offed Theodora my killing an innocent isn't right
Seriously this game.
i wish cuckposters would get laid irl already, so they could stop being so cringe and virginal in these threads
I'm just gonna say, from what I read, the romances for male is actually well written with a lot of thought put into it
>the fish - can't stay on land forever, but will wait for you at the beach whenever you're in the area
>the bird - can't be locked up, but will return to you whenever the winds are favorable
>the cat - will accompany you but can't help but feel they're using you
Jae does not qualify for something that cute
>Jae does not qualify for something that cute
Dude, her VA
I stand by my point. That shit is sandpaper to me and being called "shareen" makes me want to crush her throat-implant every time.
>not giving her a custom portrait
your custom portrait looks like trash
>ai slop
AIgays have no taste
I use Aislop for portraits but holy frick anon that looks like shit
>lock up the fish, it dies early
>lock up the bird, it dies early
>lock up the cat, it leaves you
it tracks
Modern interpretation of "good romance" is too heavily influenced by Isekai and fujo. "Good romance" now supposed to jerk off player/viewer ego, should exist for it's own sake, instead of being a fineshed element of the bigger story.
This is why Yrilet, Jae and Cassia romances are so different from Jimmy and Marazhai
Btw same applies to "fixed Cam-Cam ending"
Cassia's romance is pure ego boosting and pandering though
Yeah yet still people b***h about her endings
And how is that bad?
What does this even mean? Like, does Cassia need to treat you like shit? To not get flustered and spill spaghetti despite spending her entire life locked up? Because otherwise it's "pandering and ego boosting"?
Forgot picture
I bet you this person has done nothing but argue about ascended astarion for months
>I bet you this person has done nothing but argue about ascended astarion for months
Actually no. I found BG-3 much more forgetable. May be because of the main story, idk
how are they different? all 5 cater to thirsty incels
Fineshed Cam-Cam ending isekai fujo is really forced romance in fake writingslop, viral marketing unbased.
Someone call a stroke unit
Camelliagays that call her "CamCam" give me such an utter revulsion, what a moronic nickname
You can't tell me Yrliet's romance wouldn't benefit from physical intimacy. The entire point of it is bridging an understanding. By only having the RT be the one to do so, then it's entirely removing that aspect.
Relationships are reciprocal.
Forcing her to frick you even though she isn't interested isn't bridging an understanding.
>frick
Who said a single word about sex. You're confusing various anons here.
Holding hands would honestly be more than enough. Ideally with her initiating.
>You can't tell me Yrliet's romance wouldn't benefit from physical intimacy.
Only for insecure players, who feels like they were robbed by devs
You're literally just being contrarian because you think that'll get a rise out of me, because you've created this strawman of the people criticizing these aspects of the story.
That's fine with me anon, but I don't get why you feel the need to do that. Ultimately it's a game. It doesn't really matter.
Os this eldar pushed on you or you can kill her? Only good xenos is dead xxenos.
You can do better than kill her, you can give her to the inquisition.
Nice.
By the Emperor depot 4 needs to be purged but I need to learn more about the cultist and his fancy boots. Do I really have to choose the Californian bug person "Spreading anarchy on the ship is the first step toward embracing Chaos. Putting weapons into untrained hands would be even worse. What's more, the enforcers are needed to maintain oversight and order. Withdraw those demands and we will consider the rest." dialogue option or can I eliminate everyone and still find out more about the cultist?
For Depot 4!
Why can't I give them weapons to help root out chaos but also decline their pants on head moronic demand of no enforcers? If I eliminate them can I find the cultist or is owlcat shit?
Just go with your guts. I'm sure NOTHING terrible can happen by harming low-class ship workers who may have a sneaky cultist in their midst.
>black screen after beating c'tan shard
sasuga owlkek
I want to frick this b***h at the bar in footfall
The barkeep? yes she is kind of cute
the barkeep yeah but I'd frick Ryzza too
nevermind she threatened my boy Pasqal, I hate her now
Does it matter if you place vistenza on house arrest or not?
is the quest in Footfall in act 4 bugged like the jungle one?
the end
Good job anon also frick you
How much bug did you have to deal with? I am in the middle of the chapter 2 and have been holding off because people say ch3 beyond is bugged as frick.
pretty much no bugs until ch4, pic related end of ch4
i hit a game-stopping bug in ch5. patch fixed it. there were some other more minor bugs along the way for example a few times fights would just softlock.
i'd say go for it, the bugs aren't bad imho. ofc i was playing on linux and some anons say it's worse on windows
how did you get past the jungle area in act 4, I am telling you its bugged.
oh yeah the wandering one? that was pretty frustrating but you just have to try all of the different paths.
it's a pain in the ass since load times are garbage even on my admittedly overpowered machine. i basically just shitposted on and off while trying all the options
okay thanks, also Wintescale is following me around, does that bug it or should I kill him? The entire quest there feels bugged tho, none of the Eldar even seem to notice Yrliet.
Are Melta weapons even good? I've got the Multi Melta that I could use. Does it not count as heavy?
>turn Mazharai against the enemy
>figure I can kill him after
>no option to kill him
Oh come on. I thought I could pull a fricking fast one on him.
Take him in, he has amusing comments
I don't want to take him in
I really don't want to repeat that damn arena battle but it seems needs must.
is my ship supposed to be made of toiletpaper?
You've got a frigate, so pretty much, yes.
cool balance
