pathfinder is just D&D 3e
whatever "fixes" they added to D&D 3e in pathfinder, won't make enough of a difference in a vydia

assuming they don't do a sword coast adventurers shit and just make up their own ruleset and only use the trademark for the name.

>>377342887
They already announced its going to be a straight port of the official Pathfinder rules.

Isn't the only bad thing about Pathfinder how obnoxiously intricate the rules are? If I can have a CPU run all that shit in the background so I can focus on playing it sounds like a good idea.

>>377342887
>pathfinder is just D&D 3e with 100% more faggotry
FTFY. The rules of Pathfinder are garbage, and the writing has been getting worse and worse every year as Paizo has been going full-tilt with how "progressive" their game is. Reminder that everyone in Golarion is bisexual unless explicitly stated (in which case they're probably fully gay or transsexual like that shitty Wrath of the Righteous adventure path).

>>377341697
>CRPGs are irrelevant
But they are. Its just the same old devs that worked on old crpgs that can't let it go and try to force this crap down people's throats.

I don't disagree, but I don't think it matters for a video game.

Any PnP RPG is going to have some sort of a convoluted ruleset, that's why you never play it straight up by the book.

Every modern CRPG except DivOS has either been a boring, average experience or a steaming pile of shit. They all had shit gamplay, were mechanically and thematically inferior to games released 20 years ago and had worse bugs than Troika games.

I started creating adventures using roll20 and played with some friend. Me being the dm of course. Didn't really use any proper rules or even learn how to use the program but it was great fun. Having the freedom to do whatever you like and have it balanced on the spot was something you never get in vidya. Had a guy who's special ability was called "git jiggly" where once a turn he could git jiggly with it and depending on what he rolled something good or bad would happen.

Had people singing torches off of walls and charming rats using acrobatics.

Made by a new Russian dev studio, but most of them are former Nival guys (they developed Rage of Mages and Silent Storm for example). Technically published by the mobile company My.com, but they might use a proxy in the end, since they are too associated with free-to-play games which this one is not.

Game also looks like dogshit, but what would you expect.

>>377350058
I can't get into roll20 either. A huge draw for my enjoyment of Pathfinder is the social aspect, but even on r20 with voice chat, something is lacking. Last time I played we were doing a zone with the entire first floor having darkness spell cast on it. We were level 1, and since I was human the GM covered my entire screen with darkness and I couldn't see or do anything for 2 hours. That, on top of not being able to see that other people were doing because it was on the site, confirmed my dislike for r20.
Thanks for listening to my blog, I'm excited for a Pathfinder video game

>>377350421
No torches or a wizard to cast light?

>Pathfinder
The problem is that 3.0/5 and the d20 system as a whole under OGL licensing was irreparably broken and as a result; so is Pathfinder. It also doesn't help that Paizo didn't even really try to fix the underlying issues with 3.5 and just added onto instead of building away from core flaws.

But it doesn't really matter as Golarion is the biggest pile of generic shit to come out of any TTRPG developers arsenal. I get that's what they were going for but somehow it manages to be even more bland than Forgotten Realms and bring nothing good/unique to the table. The average fa/tg/uy's homebrewed world is probably more coherent and flavorful than Paizo's bargain bin FR copy.

>>377350932
We were level 1, so darkness dispelled any light. I had a torch, but the BBEG knocked it out of my hands or something, and I couldn't see while he went to town on my friends. Even with the torch I only had a 5 foot view around me.

Because IWD2 was shit compared to IWD1. Because NWN1 and NWN2 were both sad jokes compared to BG1 or BG2 and were saved by HotU, MotB, and mod content.

>>377352113
>Because ToEE is a trainwreck of unfun gameplay
I was with you until this point, but nope
ToEE was a buggy mess but once you fix it with fan patches, it's great.

Either way, I wasn't arguing about specific ediitons of D&D I was arguing about using any edtion of D&D (or pathfinder) is superior to having the developers como up with their own system.

For evidence, see pillar of eternity, literally everything bioware did after jade empire (and that game wasn't that great either), and sword coast legends

shit even the neverwinter mmo is worse than D&DO

>>377352720
ToEE's problem was not bugs, it was fundamental mechanical issues. And at any rate, I enjoyed PoE more than IWD2 by a fucking landslide. The problem you're talking about has more to do with bad developers than it does with not licensing D&D.

The reasons people say half the classes are shit in D&D 3.5 do not matter at all in a combat focused video game.

You've let /tg/ meme you too much if you think martials are useless in combat in a game that only goes up to level 10. Half of the game you're going to be at level 1-6, aka the most balanced levels of D&D 3.5

>enjoy planning your build
yes, that is part of the appeal, and plenty crpgs have that appeal, even modern ones, like underrail and d:os

Counterpoint.

>>377354674
>you think martials are useless in combat in a game that only goes up to level 10.
No, that's exactly why they're useless. The reason why the game is the most 'balanced' in E6 is because Wizards are lacking most of their toolkit and martials are roughly equal with CoDzillas in raw combat ability. Capping at 10 gives them no advantage over a Cleric and gives the Cleric enough room to pull off a Combat Reflexes AoO build. Push it to 20 with Co8 and the problem gets so much worse.

>>377354717
point taken, I did enjoy D:OS

I do feel that it could have had a deeper system tho
like more counter-CC

like in D&D you can cast clearmind and freedom of movement to avoid getting held/paralyzed or dominated/charmed/stunned. D:OS had a lot of varieyt in elemental spells but not enough in other kinds.
It could have been cool to have a sort of "abjuration" school with buffs and protections alongside the witch school of debuffs and curses.

They're not useless though. Casters only start really outpacing them at level 7. And after that they're still the ones delivering the damage while the casters use their spells to CC the enemy

>>377353745
it wasnt really good and you really didnt like it.

>>377355007
The problem with that is that it makes it really easy to fuck with the game instead of engaging. Under D:OS rules, it'd be better off to make buffs that boosts Willpower/Bodybuilding vs specific debuffs, and even then that's tenuous because you can completely neuter fights if you know what to expect going in or identify the biggest threat early.

>>377355930
Clerics definitely outdo them at damage, I don't know what you're talking about.

>>377356048
in tabletop yes, not in ToEE

You don't need to powergame, going with a fighter, rogue, cleric, wizard party works fine.

seriously what was even the point of 4.0
hasbro/WoTC will have to pay developers to make D&D crpgs instead of the other way around

>>377356918
see that's fine, even if it was using a different ruleset, or if D&D 3.x magically had no flaws, the game wouldn't have changed enough for you to suddenly like it, so saying that it was bad because it used the (admittedly bad in tabletop games) D&D 3.5 system doesn't really work.

Either way, my original point was about using any D&D ruleset not the D&D 3.x specifically
plus it's been proven wrong anyway by the anon that pointed out D:OS anyway so I got no more arguments

>>377357087
4E's mechanics are a lot harder to use for video games than you think they are.

>>377357127
>even if it was using a different ruleset,
Not really. If it was using 4E or 2E I'd play the fuck out of it, or even if it was using 3.5 while having the actually interesting classes instead of overpowered bullshit, autoattackers, and the Bard.

>>377357246
They really aren't.

The only thing that's harder to use is that most of the ranges and templates and shit are explicitly based on a square grid, so it's not as easy to translate to something like Baldur's Gate. But that doesn't really matter because, outside of ToEE, D&D games have always been just adaptations of the rules, changed to fit whatever game they were making. there's no reason they couldn't do the same to 4e.

And when actually sticking to the rules instead of making an adapted real-time hybrid like BG or NWN, the conversion would be much smoother because that's simply the way the game is designed from the start.

>>377357641
Immediate interrupts/reactions and marking alone are way harder to model than anything in ToEE.

>>377355387
>Casters only start really outpacing them at level 7
That's bullshit when you get shit like Web, Grease, Color Spray, etc. much earlier.

You're thinking in terms of simply dealing damage, which is the moron's approach to spellcasters. Sure, low-level casters aren't very good at damage. But they're so much better at everything else that it hardly matters.

The easiest way to play through ToEE is with 3 or 4 Rogue1/WizardX characters.

tabletop rpgs and wrpgs by extension are all shit because they're made by and for dumbfuck grognards who think having a well designed ruleset is optional. their gigantic egos make them think that the worse the rules in the manual are the more skilled they are for having to work around them.

Ok, new goalposts then. You're still dead wrong, because it wouldn't change the AI at all. A mark would just change the AI's targeting priority like many other skills in many other games.


Seriously why do idiots like you even bother to pretend to know what they're talking about?

>>377342887
3e is horrible for any CRPG that makes you manage multiple party members, because of the amount of minutia that goes into a single one. 4e is ideal for these types of CRPGs because 4e is a glorified strategy game just like every CRPG that has you control multiple units in battle.

What do you think target priority is? It's simply a weighted list of possible targets. Even though Marks aren't simple "add +10 aggro" abilities, they all function by making it less attractive to hit anyone who isn't the guy who applied the mark. How do you think a video game models something being "less attractive" to hit? Go and break your pea brain over that conundrum for a moment, you nitwit.

>>377359497
>they all function by making it less attractive to hit anyone who isn't the guy who applied the mark.
With wildly different mechanics for doing so. Factoring a -2 to hit everyone else is easy. Taking into account the Fighter being able to slap one enemy/round's shit for trying it and stopping them in their tracks? Not so much and it's pretty damn likely that it'll result in hitting the Fighter over everyone else.

>>377359673
It's the one party-based CRPG that actually gives you an option of playing with a party instead of running the entire fucking thing by yourself.

>>377360017
Yet the writing is unbearable

>>377359780
I already know you don't have a clue what you're talking about. No need to keep proving it.

The ability to weigh potential damage taken against potential damage dealt, combined with basic target prioritizing (like favoring low AC or low HP characters) is a simple bit of math that would take like three or four lines of code.

Claiming that this would be "way harder to model than anything in ToEE" is beyond retarded.

4e is a glorified TABLETOP strategy game. Where each unit is meant to be played by a single player. That means lots of things you can customize, for every character.

I'm sorry, you must've missed the Life is Strange general.

>>377360076
I can't say I actually like anything else about divOS but they at least understand the basic structure of a tabletop RPG.

>>377360112
You do understand that you can't punish every enemy you mark if they disobey it, right, and that that's one of the big issues with your model? There's an action limitation.

>tfw expeditions: viking was worse than conquistador in every way.

What happened? I couldn't even finish it.

>>377360195
Not even that guy but the writing seriously put me off Divinity. I've started about 5 characters and every time I give up mid-way through the first town.
Although I did like the various classes I could go, spent more looking at them than playing the game.

Also the writing in Life is Strange is awful, never played past the first episode

>>377360187
Yes 3e is simple compared to 4e if you ignore the entire skill and stat system of both.

>>377360675
they should have sticked with the simplicity of conquistador and just made the combat system a little more complex

but you have to admire that viking is a complete rpg, I mean it has absolutely everything you could expect from a crpg

conquistador had that amazingly refreshing setting though

>>377360787
3E's skill system is braindead and barely matters despite the granularity, though.

>>377360787
>skill
really nigger you talking about the system where half the classes get 2 points per level as complex?

And stats work the same in both versions
actually, you get to up two stats instead of one every 4 levels in 4e

Either way, you misunderstood my point. I'm not saying D&D 3e is simpler than 4e.
I'm saying that making all 6 party members in 4e would involve just as much minutiae as controlling 6 party members in 3e.

>>377360968
The thing is actual games have fluid content, so skill minutia isn't as impactful on the experience. In a video game there is very much going to be a situation where you get gated out of side content because you didn't put 5 points into your Use Rope skill.

>>377361310
Correction: 5 points into your party member's Use Rope skill.

Because god fucking knows that nobody wants to put that shit on their player character and so party members end up being like HM slaves in pokemon.

>>377361310

How is that a bad thing though?

/v/ doesnt talk enough about how Dragonfall and Conquistadors are among the best wrpgs ever made despite coming out in the last 5 years

>>377361459
In a single character game like Underrail it's fine, since it gives replayability. In a game where you level up a party it becomes >>377361456

>>377360195
I guess those are the same people that love torment and bg2

>Divinity Original Sin 2 in development
>Pillars of Eternity 2 in development
These two will be a commercial success, the rest will flop. Screencap this.

I always read conflicting views of what the fuck a CRPG even is. I take it as it can really be any kind of RPG but the core stats and mechanics have be based on similar rule-sets to tabletop RPG games ?

>>377360675
I keep restarting some time after deciding the fate of the berserker lad. Skill management(picking utility skills, balancing utility with combat ones etc) is too annoying.

Question for those who did finish it, can you found a new kingdom in the isles or only institute Danelaw while remaining a subject of the crown?

>>377341697
>mostly sequels
not feeling too great about this. too little variety, and too high of a chance of fanbase-circlejerks.
if they want to keep making similar games, I would prefer spiritual successors instead. sequels feel sour nowadays, after so many good IPs having been milked to shit.

>>377362710
generally, I think it is accepted that it has to be PC-based, which somewhat forces a higher complexity than aRPGs like for example soulsbourne games.

there is no set threshold for when a game becomes a "true" cRPG, but it has to have a certain level of complexity and intricancy in creating a character, as well as not being solely based around combat.

>>377362710
It is any kind of rpg as long as it is vidya and not pen and paper.
