People here dont play games for the story though.. they play it for the symmetrical joysticks and boot screen console logo. I'm sure people all of a sudden say its a good game now that its on their warrior system of choice.

I have yet to see a PlayStation "warrior" turn around and start praising an Xbox game once it is on PlayStation. That's a bullshit narrative.
And since when does story not matter in an RPG like this?
Just a bad take.

Ask me about my wife's perfect butthole
Yes.
Tried telling people this who were struggling with the game and they ignored me a lot lol
I actually think they've made them more OP with latest balance patches. I play on the highest difficulty and managed to get a fine pistol to drop early game and paired it with just a cheap non-upgraded pistol and was just mopping up.
Always knew it.

Its one of the only fantasy games that's not just another ripoff of Tolkien. There's other races, including fish people. Art influence is more varied with some Caribbean and Asian influence. Its still a AA game made by a small team. Graphics are uneven at times. Some parts look a little off, particularly NPCs who have to be auto-animated at this budget. But other parts look fantastic and it is an Unreal 5 game. If you aren't out to hate the game I suspect it will be zero problem for you.
Speaking of broccoli head, I put all my points into hair and it was glorious.

Ranger is sick as fuck. That's what I played. Nothing like spacing for sword hits while charging up a pistol to the face in your other hand. Or double guns. Or rifle. Or bow.

I remember seeing the videos of people using those OP spells to yeet those giant mammoth elephants out of existence, shit like that always seems fascinating to me in games like this, lol. Though I personally never do that.

Yeah I can only speak to ranger, but its clear the game has one of the best magic systems ever. Two hand melee and sword and shield also seemed fun. Going to play this multiple times for sure. Eventually.

I actually played pillars so long ago didn't really remember the races etc. A ton but I'm fine with it all I just want to explore more Obsidian worlds despite the flaws they just make decent games that hit the marks.. Even if it isn't the greatest game ever it's an experience, and an rpg and I like to be more of an enthusiast that plays games for myself when I'm interested to really get the feel.

For all the shit the game got otherwise, I really liked Veilguard's hair implementation.

It's a somewhat disappointing but fitting end to the Solas story Inquisition ends with.

We are too good to admit it.
(And no, you won't get any praise from me on the Avowed side - I won't forgive and I won't forget )I must admit, even I had this reaction:
You can argue about the quality and presentation of the story, especially against of Pillars of Eternity, but this statement left even me stunned.

As a fan of Pillars of Eternity 1 & 2, I thought Avowed was a miserable and disapppointing experience. It has an awful cast, weak central plot and pretentious writing throughout. There was almost nothing redeeming in it. If I wasn't such a fan of the original games I'd have stopped playing less than halfway through and maybe I should have, as it has had a corrosive effect on my memories of POE, similar to how DA: Veilguard tarnished that series.

And this is exactly why I cringe every time Obsidian uses the 'The studio behind Fallout New Vegas' Looool noooo, noooo you are not, that Obsidian is long gone.
Do not give these weird freaks money.
