If you've got a straight answer ANYWHERE in that bent little head of yours, I want to hear it pretty damn quick or I'm going to take a large blunt object roughly the size of Elminster AND his hat, and stuff it lengthwise into a crevice of your being so seldom seen that even the denizens of the nine hells themselves wouldn't touch it with a twenty-foot rusty halberd!

>>52185776
You mean the novelization where he getsImoen, Jaheira and everyoneelse killed?
Where this happens?
>For a time it was believed that Bhaal's resurrection had been ended. The last known Bhaalspawn, Abdel Adrian, resisted the murderous impulses caused by his lineage and became a famed and beloved figure in the city of Baldur's Gate. Near the beginning of the era known as "The Sundering" another Bhaalspawn, Viekang, who was thought dead, attacked Adrian as he spoke to a crowd in the portion of town known as The Wide. The ultimate winner of the duel is unknown, although it matters not as the victor transformed into a massive, blood soaked creature and began a rampage which was only stopped when a group of adventurers new to Baldur's Gate defeated and killed the monstrosity.
tfw writing and story is so terrible you're forced to kill off your main character
>>52185842
Also wherehe trust Bodhi like a fucking moron who should definitely not have 11 Wisdom
Yes, that book does not exist.
>>52185882
Also made Minsc a redheaded barkeep.
>>52185882
I swim in memories at places such as this...most unpleasant memories.
>>52183155
I can kind of see it.
Still one of the greatest games of all time.
>>52182758
Looks like Willow from Buffy.
>>52185733
Y'know, if you can get over the murder of Abdel/CHARNAME, the module is actually really good. It's basically Les Miserables in D&D, with your characters getting to choose whether Enjolras, Javert, or some French noble becomes the Chosen of Bhaal.Personally? I have all three become the Chosen, but it's possible to save two of them
I also modify the module so that Abdel, while not quite as strong as in Throne of Bhaal, is still a very, very high level powerhouse. It's just that Viekang is as well. So the fight plays out between the two of them and they weaken each other until one dies and the other becomes the Slayer and has to be put down, but has drastically reduced hit points due to the fight and so actually can be, with help from the Flaming Fist.
>>52185882
Oh yeah, no, the book emphatically does not exist. When I ran Murder in Baldur's Gate, Abdel was there, but all he shared with the book retard was his name and status as Bhaalspawn. Otherwise I basically ran him as Conan the Barbarian, what with his gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth.
>>52189941
Oh, hey, what do you know, I still have my original notes for how the whole thing went down...

So let me get this straight:
1e players are weirdos
2e players are old
Non one likes 3.5 players, and they always insist they're right.
4e players are loyal, competent, and lovable, but also not very smart.
PF finders don't have a soul.
Iron Heroes players are... violent?
Blue Rose players cut themselves while thinking of romance stories
No one cares about Amber as a system
GURPS players abandon their families
WoD players talk about sex and how dark and brooding their past is.
d20 modern players are edgy mary sues that nobody likes.
L5R players are out of place weeaboos.
Fantasycraft players are well meaning but a bit pushy.
Exalted players won't stop going on about how powerful they are.
CoC players are scared of everything because they're giant pussies.
FATAL is played by psychopaths.
Is that right?
>>52194851
>Non one likes 3.5 players, and they always insist they're right.
Yes, indeed. Speak once more against those with enough intelligence to grind you into salt and I'll instill a bit more respect in you, fool.
>>52194851
Pretty good, but I would add "idiots" in there to the FATAL players.
>>52194851
>CoC players are scared of everything because they're giant pussies.
Xan isn't scared, he's a fatalistic depressive.
Khalid is the only BG1 companion with low morale.
>>52183094
>>52194851
But who would 5e be?
>>52194851
>No one cares about Haer'Dalis

Checks out.
>>52194851
I would flip the first two. In my experience, 1e players are old, 2e players are weridos.
And of course Basic players are friendly, well-adjusted, contributing members of society.
>>52185637
>>52194936
psychopaths are idiots anon. the condition comes with a learning disability
>>52194851
FC players also care more about shit players of other editions don't, like reputation, family/contacts, and playing a character despite it being a terrible race/class choice

I remember there was a controversy with the mod maker (I guess the original, since this is a rewrite) trying to mack on ladies for hot cybersex that were in the same little modding community or whatever. Before that people were shitting on it because it was full of weird S&M and rape stuff or something.
Old school RPG modding, good times(?)
>>52194125
same
>>52193757
I dunno, maybe? Google would have only been 2 years old in 1998 when BG was released - and presumably even younger when the character of Abdel was created - and wasn't yet the powerhouse that it is today.
>>52197132
the whole point of 4e is that whatever race and class you pick you're still able to contribute
(unless you pick vampire)
>>52185842
>>52185733
I'm 100% sure that writers who are paid to write novels about video games actually hate video games and try their best to make them shit.
Has there ever been a good novel about a good game?
I mean the kotor novels were garbage too.
>>52204127
What's wrong with vampires in 4E?
>>52203677
Can the old school hold a candle to the guy who made an uninstanced cities mod for skyrim, then decided his vision of the world included giant ugly deactivated oblivion portals in every city?
And then went Archmage Autismidas when people made versions of the mod without them?
>>52204352
basically, every class a built-in mechanic to fulfill their combat role.
Strikers have extra damage
Defenders have a way to protect their allies
controllers have a way to put status effects in many enemies at once
leaders can heal and give various buffs
The vampire has none of those things.
He is literally lacking a core mechanic of D&D 4e.
>>52204127
Really? In my experience, if you didn't have your character in 4E completely min-maxed and planned out completely at inception, then they were completely useless and wouldn't survive for more than 1-2 levels. Then again, maybe I was just playing with a shite DM, since we also had a TPK every 0-3 levels.
>>52204536
your dm was crazy
or maybe part of that one "fourthcore" movement that tried to make 4e more gritty and lethal.
Either way no, 4e is very specifically designed to give everything a character needs to contribute trough his class basic mechanic.
>>52185842
>Viekang
>that guy who auto-teleported away when he was afraid

Come on, Aerie could have beaten that guy to the ground. Without any weapons, i'd say.
>>52201825
Maybe he can't be controlled.
He could, however, die like an idiot in a magic duel against a crippled avariel and a spoiled young noblewoman whose castle was conquered by trolls.
I didn't even need any close combat in the last playthrough.

Both of which are likely to have explored half the sword coast, the underdark, fought drows, beholders, ilithids, liches, demiliches, hordes of vampires, genies, hundreds of undead, and probably slayed a dragon or three.
Oh, and they are pretty much guaranteed to be covered in ridiculously powerful magic items, and be level 15 or higher, have done their own personal quests and thus becoming better people than what they were when you first encountered them.
>>52204963
surely someone posting on /tg/ knows that the giant space hamster is an actual D&D monster right?
>>52204536
...yeah, jesus christ.
It takes SERIOUS work to actually TPK a group in 4e.
It's pretty easy to down a guy (They have more HP than 3.5 early levels but enemies have a lot of nasty abilities) but actually finishing them off requires pushing to -bloodied (Or multiple failed death saves). Rather than 3.5's '10 past your max HP when you start getting HP over 100'
Being a lot less rocket tag and 'Oops, he died' it generally requires foes actively trying to curb stomp a guy while he's down rather than moving onto his allies (Or everyone getting downed at once) to have death in 4e.

>>52205263

>>52204963
lol newfag
You must gather your party before venturing forth
>>52204874
Remember how, during the game, every now and then, you'd have a dream and Bhaal would try and convince you to start murdering people and give in to your nature?
Like, half of Irenicus' best lines in BGII aren't actually Irenicus, they're Bhaal disguised as Irenicus - the "life is strength" speech, for example.
Yeah, anyway - that happens to all Bhaalspawn given enough time. And unlike Abdel/CHARNAME, who has the strength of mind to resist Bhaal's influence, Viekang is fundamentally a coward and eventually gives into it. More to the point, he's been listening to it for about a hundred years or so (Bhaalspawn don't age as quickly as others of their race).
I can totally buy that Viekang, spending a hundred years listening to Bhaal in his head, could eventually crack and go nuts.
More to the point, Viekang doesn't have to kill Abdel. It doesn't matter which one lives and which one dies, all that matters is that there's only one Bhaalspawn left.
>Aerie could have beaten that guy to the ground. Without any weapons, i'd say.
I mean...Aerie's a Cleric/Mage, so saying she could do something without weapons isn't exactly informative.
>>52204517
Vampires can deal significant damage bro.
Their basic attacks can be super useful, especially at lower levels, and they're pretty survivable for a Striker class.
I want tohugViconia extremely hard, long, and often.
>>52183313
because now, I'm going to snatch every motherfucker Bhaalspawn
>>52207490
Commoners and nobles should've been worth large amounts of experience points in order to encourage the player to commit multiple acts of murder. I mean, you are literally the son of god of murder. Why doesn't the game go out of the way to heap rewards on you for... I dunno, MURDER?
>>52197072
Psychopaths aren't always idiots, they just have so little impulse control that most of them can't stay in school long enough to learn much. High-functioning ones tend to be almost indistinguishable from the rest of us.
>>52209157
You're thinking of sociopaths, most psychopaths are what you'd call 'high functioning'.
Though in reality, these are vague terms that have limited use in real psychology, and we're mostly popularised by Hollywood. They serve a good enough role in distinguishing very broadly between different forms of antisocial personality disorder, but they're not precise or academically sound terms.
