Hello.

I am not a spiritual person and I am not mentally insane. But I have been experiencing brutal attacks since a few months ago. It is like something has attached to me and I don't know what it is. I do not hear voices in the strict sense, but these voices can speak. They seem to have a personality of their own. It seems like they are countless. During these experiences, they showed me things. But their purpose is unclear. Some of them seem to need help. But I do not know what to do.

One of them burned my index finger while I was on bed, leaving a blister. And now I have a scar that could not be possible otherwise without disproving what is happening to me. So, there is a possibility I might be possessed despite how ridiculous that sounds.

Any help or advice is welcomed.

I love baldur's gate and its sequel. But pillars of eternity is just... a boring, uninspired and tedious game. The heavy micromanagement, the real time with pause combat, the hordes of trash enemies, the very limited use of abilities. The long exposition of meaningless information. It is just quantity over quality. The game feels more like the result of somone's job than a project with purpose.

Recently I played the gothic remake and finished it within a couple of days. It was a blast. Then, I remembered I ran out of rpgs to play. And re-installed PoE for the third time, because it felt like I didn't give it a fair chance. The game didn't last me twenty minutes installed. Just slowly dragging the camera around this castle killed my determination to depose the problematic lord.

So, what is it that sets games like baldur's gate or planescape torment apart? Without mentioning other masterpieces like divinity original sin or baldur's gate 3, for the sake of fairness, compassion and not a small amount of pity. Because I could not put these games down for the life of me. But this is just painful to play. I have to force myself.

I have yet to play divinity original sin 2. So, not all hope is lost. But my question stands, what is really missing with pillars of eternity?

Edit: I am resposting here, because the moderators at projecteternity are a little bit touchy and removed my post despite me never offending anyone. So, yeah. I hope I don't have to deal with people who are weak of character here. But feel free to share your thoughts, if you got them.

Gothic II is one of the games from my childhood. But I never played the first game because of how rough and basic the world looks in comparison to the sequel. So, the remake was a perfect opportunity to play the first game of one of my favourite franchises.

I was enjoying the remake up until chapter 4. The game was a solid 8.5 out of 10. Surviving and building myself up in this brutal world is an amazing experience. Then it came chapter 5 and the score went up to 10, because of how much I love dungeon crawling, puzzles, bosses and seemingly epic loot. But chapter 6 was mostly recycled content with tougher enemies and a disappointing final boss fight.

Still, the best 34 hours of this year for me. But I am still a little disappointed because this game could have been a masterpiece without chapter 6, and an actual boss fight.

Did you have a similar experience with the remake?

I am new to one pace. But when I go to the site and try to change the language, it changes both audio and subtitles.
