I once killed a woman... Stole everything she has... Revived her, then gaslit her into thinking im her savior... This is the DnD experience i was expecting
My Favorite oddity is picking up dead bodies and then storing them in Chests at camp. I have a whole chest of boss bodies. Save for the Hag who is too heavy to pick up even for my Barbarian.
Pick it up with a character, teleport to the camp with another, run next to the chest then transfer items between characters. You can transfer items between characters no matter where they are.
The game really won me over when I had to smear poo onmy characters face to get into a gobbo camp, I thought" what if I created water using the creater water spell" and lo and behold it washed off the poo smear on my characters face! The attention to detail is amazing
I haven’t been this glued to a game and sucked into role playing since Frostpunk. I really enjoy it, did not expect it since turn based is not really my thing.
I found myself spending countless hours just in the character creation screen. If that isn't a testament to the game before the game even starts u don't even know what is
No it absolutely is not the combat is the worst I have ever seen it’s slow and frustrating and generally not fun it totally ruins the entire experience it’s infuriating really why couldn’t they just have normal godamn combat but no they had to be wierd and unique and now a shit ton of people are going to be bummed they bought it like me
My favorite mechanism is pushing people off the cliffs and ledges. I died a couple of times fighting Balthazar and I was getting really frustrated, then I discovered I can use the force channel ability to push him off the platform and watch him fall and die instantly. It was so satisfying. After I killed him this way, I deliberately re-loaded the saved game just to do it again to him and watch him fall to his death while I laughed maniaclly.
@@vadim6656 Nah no loot when you kill him this way. But there is something satisfying about pushing him off the platform and watch him fall to his death.
I’m still new, but I came across the matriarch spider and I spent like an hour trying not to get killed. I was like half considering fleeing when I saw her HP pool like half way into the fight 😂. I was too busy using up all my spells on the smaller mobs. Then I discovered I can destroy the webs and cause her to fall and take dmg. My game crashed… but this time I had a new strategy. I made her fall like 3 times from her web. Worked so much better, beat her in 10 minutes. This game is so satisfying to learn.
I killed him in a similar manner. My main is a Warlock with Repelling Blast invocation. After struggling in his fight for a bit, I got an outcome where he happened to be close enough to the edge of the platform that I knocked him off first round. It was so funny to see, and it was super satisfying. I love that the game lets you do that if you want :)
this game is probably one of my favorite games of 2023 been playing ea for a while, but the amount of detail is insane, the fact that there are 17k different endings is absurd in itself
So... I gave one of my eyes to the Hag in exchange for her removing the tadpole. It didn't work, but I did learn something interesting about what makes our tadpoles unique. Edit: I learned about using enemies as weapons against their friends because I was reading some of the Achievements, and one of them is called Kill Two Birds with One Gnome. A Berserker Barbarian with a couple magic items and the Tavern Brawler feat does _hilarious_ damage with thrown items and bodies.
While I knew BG3 would be amazing (since I loved D:OS2), at the beginning of the year never did I expect it to totally demolish TOTK on my GOTY considerations.
I’m not ready to go that far, personally. I’m really enjoying BG3 but TOTK is just on another level and has become my all time favourite game. As I said I am loving BG3 and the scope is amazing, but for GOTY I think it will be TOTK which has a wider appeal, and is just such an improvement on BOTW, which won best game ever in a national vote in Japan in 2021. It also has so much new and changed content but also in the way you interact with the world that I only think Starfield may beat it, if it can match its promise. What a year for gaming.
@@makasete30 Yeah I mean I definitely think TOTK will win the GOTY at the official awards show. For me though, TOTK, has been such an experience. If I would have played it before BOTW, it would far and away be my favorite game of all time. And I’m not sure if anything would ever surpass it. After the first 25 hours or so, I came to RU-vid comments to proclaim, “This is the best game ever made.” But something happened during my playthrough. Once I got used to the new abilities, suddenly the shrines became dull. And the Temples just didn’t do it for me - they felt too much like slightly better Divine Beasts. The bosses are incredible in design, but they were all total pushovers. And I just got to a point where I got burnt out by the whole BOTW/TOTK experience - it all started to feel the same. There was no more sense of wonder or challenge. All that said, TOTK is an incredible game that fixed damn near everything from BOTW as you mentioned, and I would still rate it near perfect. It was just my personal experience that disappointed me.
I still kinda prefer DOS3, even though I'm a big seasoned DND player (mainly 3.5e, some 5e) and huge fan of Baldur's Gate since they came out, in my childhood.
Everything here is something that was shown off already, Explain how no one knew you could talk to animals when its literally a skill given to you at the start of the game
@@ChristmasLore they don't but the musical icons appear and it states that my character is playing poorly. Just equip an instrument and the action appear on the first taskbar.
Same here! Are you getting the standard or Deluxe Edition? I hope it runs, looks performs well! With great controls and good dynamic Split Screen Coop! I also hope it has 120 FPS Hugh Frame Rate Mode support for 120 Hz TVs!
While underground you can reverse pickpocket a Susser flower into magic users during combat then beat them like a drum. I was fighting the Bulet but couldn't knock it into the crevasse because it was too big, in one playthrough I shrunk it and my barbarian threw it off, the best one was polymorphing a Minotaur into a sheep because it was too big for my gnome to throw off a ledge. You can also toss party members really far if they can't jump to the high ground or across a gap, because they're a weak gnome if you shrink them first. If you steal the Spectator in a bottle you can throw it into an enemies midst and it'll pop out like a murderous jack in a box. I'm pretty sure you can use bodies, shovels and brushes as weapons if you take the barroom brawler feat, never tried it though.
Sdaly i knew all of that already. Whereof, i wouldn't recommend cheesing enemies down a chasm or so. You may miss out on some nice loot... unless you use a mod ;)
10 'ridiculous' things that you could already do in Original Sin 2 you mean? All reviews act as if this game is some sort of miraculous 8th world wonder, but seriously, it's 'just' a refined and expanded followup to Original Sin 2. Which is still great, but pff, the hype is ridiculous.
On my first attempt I shoved the hag and pushed her into the chasm. A few hours of playing later I learned about the stat increase she gives if done right. And Mayrina for some reason ran right into one of the poison clouds after I saved her. 🤦♂️
Several of these were common knowledge or even outright told to you in the loading screens and tutorials The parasite one for instance is literally shoved in your face when the time comes :O
@GamingBolt When you are at Alfira, theres two squirrels, you can push or throw one of them over the cliff. note that pushing is best, since you othervise would get -5 in relation with Alfira. pretty funny and you get an achivement (shove off), if you already havent got it.
@@xsoundofsil3nc3x96 ok yes but the title of the video is ‘you didnt know you can do’. Im saying these are all core mechanics everyone knows you can do
@@MARCOXTOP1 me and my gf have actually been playing the game for about a week and had no clue some of these were things in the game. Just because you already knew doesn’t mean everybody did
Things you "didn't know" you could do. Proceeds to list spells that you get through natural progression, quest objectives you get through natural progression, dialogue options you get through natural progression, and basic game mechanics. Text book clickbait...
thank you for that Dark Urge spoiler. I'm serious, I actually like spoilers. It gave me an idea how Dark Urge works. I laughed hysterically at what he did to Gale's arm lmao.
Truly awful game. Have had to restart like 12 times because I can't decide what class I want. 148 hours and haven't gotten past the goblin camp. Why do Lae'zel and Shadowheart have to be so snippy. why why.....
