To be fair, we're not too big fans of caps either, but introducing it seemed the lesser of a few possible evils.

Stop fabricating your own interpretations and claiming that is what someone else had said or is thinking.

but we got a lot of complaints and couldn't think of anything better to do".

is this some sort of self deprecating sarcastic joke?

you better hope it is.

His statement is not at all

his statement?

you mean your statement, right? the one quoted just above, the one you literally invented and posted yourself.

what I'd expect if the design really wanted to rule out immunity to elements.


ruling out immunity to elements?

from which discussion did that one come from?

the one spinning in your head in some imaginary world completely out of touch with reality?

they removed 100% resistance to some element to be too easily achievable, nothing else. and you still can get it by drinking a potion or using spells which are both extremely plentiful.

while your resistances are not removed at all, because you can have them at 95%.

And there are any number of ways they could have made the changes such that people already mid-game aren't getting the shaft.

nobody is getting a shaft. there is no "people", its only you and your nonsensical posts made out of your own invented ridiculous brain farts.

shaft is being 95% resistant to some element? thats the "shaft"?

and then drinking a potion or using a spell to go over 100?

I'm sure your next bit of advice will be to crack out a saved game editor and re-spec my party rather than starting over yet again (which doesn't work as there only seem to be PC versions of the tools).

youre sure because you are telepathic, right?

of course, that doesnt have anything to do with anything even remotely real and nobody is ever going to say that to you or even much care.


because you can just continue playing.




I believe he is referring to the many players (myself included) that have one or more savegames in which they focused on boosting the resists of one or more characters in order to achieve a desired effect, often sinking many hours into doing so, only to have it snatched away by a knee-jerk reaction from Larian in response to those screaming for Larian to limit their gameplay.

Or at least that's what I think he's talking about.
