Hi guys, thx you all for your comments.

Argonaut,
I'm not sure if I understood you well or not. I was saying BG1 and 2 are based on D&D, isn't it ? I think you said the same, more or less, so... I think I agree with you. Did I ? ^^
About the dice, again I'm not 100% sure I understood everything you said (but I'm confident than I did at 80% at least). So I'm not completely ok.
I have not a problem with the probability, I have a problem with the little impact the skills have on the probability. For now it feels like my "masteries" in "persuasion" or "intimidation" have a really really little impact on the roll-dice. Besides, there are games where this is not about probability but pure skill. You have 3 points in "intimidate" it unlocks the dialogue option "intimidate level 3".
I'm not saying Larian should do it. I just say, other ways exist but anyway, here, in BG3, I don't appreciate the probabilité system.
What's the point reloading to get the reaction I want.
And more we could have a debate about the logic of a random reaction to the same sentence, but this is not the point. The point is, I feel powerless and unskilled in frnot of the dice, no matter the points I spent in some skills.


Lumign,
I'm pretty used to the turned-base game, I played Divinity, HoMM, Bounty, Fire Emblem, etc. My point is, here, in BG3, it lacks of epic, it's long and boring. And as I said, I would like to have the two option like in... BG1and 2 (which you could have an automatic pause at every beginning of rounds)
If you think a fighter swinging his sword every 6 secondes is no fun, so what about a guy doing the same thing every 6 minutes (I overstate) (cause you know, goblin move, goblin attack, goblin move, gobl.. etc) ?
Never get when the developpers lower the possibility of gameplay (cause it shouldn't be this complicated to give the opportunity to play real-time).

For the companion it's terrific yeah ! I don't ask an option at the beginning, I asked for the companion to have a... how should I say it... a sexual personnality ? I mean I have no problem with all the different sexualities but it doesn't mean I'm myself a free open-bar guy. I have my preferences as everyone. Everybody can't be nymphomaniac. I won't be shocked if (I say it randomnly) Gale can't support elves or if Astarion didn't like dwarf girls or anything you want except for this "I take anybody who's near me cause I'm a freaking companion created to have sex with anybody who's smile at me"...


About te roll-dice thing, I'm aware it's my preference and some people will love it. First I critiziced the unsatisfacting connection skills/roll-dice.
But reading you I thougth "why they don't just let people reroll the dice if they want ?" it's a perfect exemple of this moment where the developpers limited the options. They have a vision, I respect it even if I'm not ok with it. But why impose it when they could simply let people choose. Those who wont reroll and play with the thrill of the dice wont reroll and those who just want to have the story they're looking for will reroll like hell. And everybody is happy. I call it a compromise. ^^
A game should be about the fun the players have first, not about defending a point of view at all cost.

About the camera zoom, I guess you're right. What's done is done. Maybe a little too much enthusiasm !


Minsc1122,
thx ! I'm glad to see I'm not the one thinking the way I think. smile
