Is there a game where your weapon choices are like bucket, chair, lasso and like a basketball? Preferably an RPG.

I keep rerolling. Can't decide between barbarian and cipher. Also I think there are a few difficulty spikes that I think need smoothing.

Or maybe I'm just bad.

Ghosts are way too strong. Specifically shades and phantoms. Shades have too high of a defense, and are apparently programmed (literally coded) to single out wizards. They will teleport OUT OF ENGAGEMENT with other characters to your Wizard and proceed to rape him because he has shit health and defense. And, short of leaving your wizard 50 feet behind to stay out of combat, there's not really anything you can do to stop it. Phantoms are annoying because they stunlock whatever character they're attacking. It wouldn't be so bad if these shades and phantoms were found solo or maybe 2-3, but nearly every time you run into them there's 4-5 of them and it's just a huge shitfest. The rest of the mobs I run into are balanced perfectly fine. They're not easy but they're not rape trains either. Just these fucking ghosts.

I didn't know about this game. Internet says it's fun. Guys, is internet lying?

edit: fuck
"As Mr. Aonuma announced, The Legend of Zelda game for Wii U is no longer targeted as a 2015 release. Rather than sticking to a specific schedule, the team wants to make this the most complete and the best game it can possibly be. The new launch timing has not yet been determined. Because we’d like to focus on developing the game, we aren’t planning on showing it at this year’s E3, where we will be highlighting games launching in 2015. We will let you know when we’re ready to share more specifics."

So far for me it's like a 7/10. So I would say it's just slightly overrated by the reviews it's gotten, but I've rerolled so much that I'm still in the first act so I can't really judge it

I've been enjoying it more since I dumped the NPC WIzard companion.

My Priest is pretty tanky but I hired a Paladin to supplement my Fighter in melee. Running 2 meat shields in FIghter and Paladin, 2 support in Priest and Chanter and 2 Deeps in Ranger and Cipher.

Priests would have been a lot cooler if they had more God-specific abilities. Same for Paladins. Holy shit Paladins are so boring.

I feel like if Pillars of Eternity gets future games, there's a lot they could do with Paladins & Priests. As it stands, regardless of which God or Order you're dedicated to, you'll only get 1-2 different abilities than the others. I would enjoy to see AT LEAST 4-5 different things depending on the God/Order you choose.

So. I got to hang out in a temple to my God for a bit and there was only one quick piece of unique dialogue for me with a mediocre extra item reward. Booooo.

I think you're farther ahead than me. I'm still dicking around in Defiance Bay doing virtually every sidequest.

Going after Raedric is from a quest you get in Gilded Vale from Kolsc once you find the Blacksmith dude's supplies

Lol. I remember running into the like, 8 shade fight and thinking, "man, pewps is going to hate this". I dodged the second floor fight and found a peaceful solution with the banshee.
