![]() ![]() producing decent modding editors (I admit Larian has yet to deliver on that), free from any add-ons inaccessible to average Joe Shmoe because of price or professional expertise level (Granny, Unity, etc.)ĬDPR also chose to walk in the shoes of Bioware at one time, and look where they are today : maybe not quite yet at the top and untouchable, but definitely in a better position than from when they started, so everything wasn't that bad in the "initial model".actually providing continued support for their games, fixing bugs and implementing features that were promised, keeping their games in a playable and an enjoyable state even years after.focusing on user experience (aka fun, see "Ascension"), improving their games by iterations, instead of milking stalled franchises ad vitam aeternam.listening to their community of fans as a whole (if requests remain reasonable), not just the most vocal/obnoxious/"colored" part of them.Nothing wrong with that if it's the Bioware from 15/20 years ago we're talking about : By the way, according to an unnamed "German publisher", the game is supposed to come out on April 25th, but I would take that information with a grain of salt until it's confirmed by Larian.

If you want to have a chance to evade attacks, you need to invest in Dexterity. Warrior skills get Action Point bonuses from Strength, and Ranger skills get Action Point bonuses from Dexterity.Ībilities: The ability Reflexes has been removed. Intelligence no longer lowers the Action Point cost of all skills - it only lowers the Action Point cost of elemental skills. ![]() You can still save Action Points and shift them to the next round, but the maximum amount of Action Points you can collect is determined by your Constitution. The number of Action Points available to you in subsequent rounds depends on your Speed. And of course, the better you understand the rules, the better you'll be able to exploit the game's systems to your advantage.Īction Points: The Action Points available to you at the beginning of combat now depend on your Initiative (that is, Perception and Speed). This history log will be very handy in understanding the rules systems that are at the game's heart.
