Why is this even a complaint? More freedom and interactivity is objectively good. I'm so sick of games being restrictive linear shit where you're allowed to do one choice.

Yeah, FF the series in general seems to have a "Phoenix Downs only work if they're MOSTLY dead, not completely dead" unspoken rule, usually invoked if they need to kill off a character for good (with one primary example...) or if a character tries to sacrifice themselves. FFT even had a countdown window to revive characters before it became 'too late.' This isn't usually a problem?

That being said, Final Fantasy is one of the worst offenders of Ludonarrative dissonance when it comes to shit like "you're high level, you steamroll any given boss, but the subsequent plot implies it was barely a victory or you're somehow STILL losing." The mobile game FFBE is really odious because *nearly every goddamn plot beat no-sells your efforts like this.*

Played some Baldurs Gate 1 for some time, elf archer, with the plan of going into BG2. Though haven't played for month, then got a new pc and forgot to save the safe file. I actually enjoy low-level D&D more than high-level, I guess it was all that wandering around in the wilderness that made me kinda drop the game.
Plan of creating an elf mage/thief multiclass, second attempt. Should probably be a great tool box and keep me entertained well into BG2. That probably also means I will tell Imoen to fuck off.

Icewind Dale 1 is fantastic. I see that you don't have any rogues at all. Beware, the game has it's fair share of dangerous traps in the beginning of the game.

I've installed both NWN games just to use all the unlimited community adventures to get more familiar with the D&D settings and builds. After that I'll check out the persistent worlds/virtual tabletop multiplayer stuff if it doesn't require much investment and routine playing. And also the big adventures like Baldur's Gate (Bhaalspawn, Dark Alliance, 3), Icewind Dale, Torment, Pool of Radiance, Dark Sun, the big NWN campaigns, etc.

The character importing and knowing you can get into or draw upon all that /tg/ content, really puts D&D at a level no other can match. Also the only series that I can remember has well-regarded releases in every single era of vrpg games, from the Ultima days to the latest ones.

Should throw a few of those in there to shaft wizard builds:

"You reach a locked wooden door, it is covered in multiple runes and seals to resist magic."

Checks:

Intelligence - You survey the door and it's surrounding revealing nothing of note and no mechanism by which to unlock it.

Perception (Success on +12) - Upon closer inspection you notice the wood is beginning to rot, whoever installed this door must have done so a long time ago and not anticipated the weathering of time.

Strength (Success on +14) - You kick the door sending shards of wooden spraying across the room, after several more successive kicks several panels fall through leaving a hole big enough for you to squeeze through.

I enjoyed Underrails mutagen puzzle. All the information you needed was in the game, it made sense in the setting, and it was completely optional just to make the end boss easier.
I never did the music cypher puzzle in the expansion because I don't know shit about music theory and also I heard the reward isn't that great.

Mirage is okay, even if she's just discount Cliff with a bit of discount Maria.
Ignoring the Director's Cut characters, the bigger issue is that the compulsory characters are overall better than the optional characters, so outside of flavour/variety it doesn't really matter if you take Roger over Nel or Albel, because, say, Maria stomps all of them the further into the game you go.

Vivec just sending you in alone with Wraithguard, Dagoth Ur leaving Sunder and Keening with random separated ash vampires, etc. It's doesn't ruin the game or anything and you can just be like "umm it's prophecy... divine beings don't think that way, uh... yeah" but you could have had a large group assault with the Bouyant Armigers and Ordinators if the engine could handle it, etc. And really it wouldn't have been worth it for Beth, it's just something that could obviously have been done better.
