31·7 days agoI usually played the non-nonsense serious type of good guy that you don’t get in veilguard but yeah. I haven’t finished it so I’m looking forward to that. I’m only like 15 hours in but I’m split between that, BG3, and Skald Against the black priory, which is a fantastic old school style rpg. I picked up all of those in December on the steam sale
I love the combat system and I think the more action oriented combat is a good change for the system. The story feels much less open world and really heavy on the cutscenes, but it really is more of an action rpg so that’s fine.
I really do think it falls short in the character interactions and dialogue. It feels like you are locked in to playing a really nice character, which I usually do anyway, but it feels pretty campy and limited compared to how varied the old games could be depending on your options.
It does have one of the best character creation processes I’ve ever used.
It’s definitely not as bad as people make it out to be, and it’s a good game, just kinda cheesy which is wildly different from previous DA games. But BG3 exists if you want to play a mean or evil character in a fantasy rpg
Yeah I love my steam deck. Works great in a usb c dock as well.
Yeah there is likely still a ways to go before we can run high end modern games plus a local model, but newer nvidia cards are pretty crazy. It’s probably closer than I think
AI could also generate dialogie options for players, though. It could operate as traditional dialogue, with AI generating responses and possible doalogue paths ahead of time so you get a “normal” experience that just changes every time
I think so. New GPUs will be able to handle AI models running locally before too long. I think this will be used for NPC behavior as a replacement for procedural quest / dialogue generation. I have seen a lot of mobile games leveraging this but they don’t seem very good yet. Models need to be trained more specifically for each game I think
I recently got Moonrakers, and it is 10/10 in my opinion. It can be competitive, and the rules certainly support backstabbing and sabotage, but it can be played very cooperatively. There is a winner, but you could even modify the rules to “try to get everyone to 10 prestige in x number of rounds” instead of first to 10 wins.
