Realtime Hack n Slash Combat mod PLEASE!!

[SteveLosive]

I love Baldur's Gate 3, but with all the different spells and possible things you can do, it'd be very cool to try all that in realtime 3rd person combat either stealth or loud hack and slash. Also, now that the mod toolkit has been released this should be possible.

Instead of the enemies freezing in place and waiting turns, they now can move freely and attack as soon as they see the player. You can switch between character and followers during combat and there's 2 ways this could be done, either all characters/followers are present and you just switch to their view like in Lego games or only one character/follower is present and you switch in place and add an effect to cover the character switch.

You could also do something like The Bureau: XCOM Declassified where you just order followers to do certain actions while actively playing the main character.

The amount of possible interactions and approaches is insane. Like, you could shapeshift to blend in with the enemy as if you're one of them and just roam an area without having to fight anyone. Could maybe hear some enemy background dialogue if there's any, and just feel some next level immersion.

Well, you can go see my Steam profile creation date like a smart person would instead of assuming completely false info about me based on "bruh" (at least my profile is public and not private like some scared kiddo). Also, you've been just calling me names and insulting me while providing no actual constructive criticism at all or any criticism in fact, just plain rude insults that didn't really faze me, but I wanted to point out how absurd you sound for the fun of it. Cheers.

The game you want is DA2, played without pausing. But for a D&D based game the player set AI parameters would be pages long. It wouldn't be a mod. You would have to develop a game like that from the beginning.

Sounds like an awful idea and probably not possible to implement. Goodwick with that anyway. Or you could play diablo 4 if you want a game like that.

Why do people keep recommending Diablo 4, as if the game industry doesn't have other than BG3 and Diablo 4. The only turn-based games I ever played were XCOM games and some other classics that I can't recall. The reason why I suggested a hack n slash mod is because this game has more to it that just turn-based combat, it's way more than that, the story and atmosphere of the game feels a lot like The Witcher 3 and I think it'll be a great experience to try it as an aRPG instead of a cRPG.

A modder did the same with D:OS2, only to abandon it because it wouldn't work properly.

In it's current form, it's a good showcase as to why it wouldn't work in bigger encounters. Though it is lacking pause at the moment, so, we'll have to see how it'll turn out.

Also, it's not even remotely close to Witcher. Diablo may be more apt of a comparison but with the AI being faster at queuing attacks/skills than the player.

This is a new level of petty, necroing a thread like this.

Glad you got what you wished for, for me it looks absolutely terrible and if BG3 was made like that, I wouldn't have bought it.

Bummer to read on the mod page that the modder is having some real life issues, though :/

This guy is trolling or suffering some sort of years long mental breakdown so I don't know what you expect lol. He left a negative review on the game warning everyone about how it secretly hides that it is turn based, only played <2hrs of the game, and made multiple threads over months asking for people to make this nonsense mod without ever bothering to understand why it wouldn't work and no one would want it even if it did.

No, just no. This isn't pathfinder.

While technically modding RTwP could be possible, i don't think it really feasible.

It would require implementing a timer and attaching every single ability/effect to it. Implementing cooldowns to every single action in the game. Rebalancing all abilities and altering action economy to fit RTwP would also be necessary. Possibly alter how dice rolls are made.

Rebalancing/remaking every single encounter in the game, possibly adding more encounters. Altering AI so enemies don't just spam abilities at the same time, essentially rework how combat AI works. Alter how combat abilities work, backstabs wouldn't be annoying to pull off if enemies keep moving

At this point i think it would be easier just to make a new game.

who said anything about RTwP, I said realtime full on action RPG hack n slash.

Why do you want to take a game, with a very specific gameplay style, and then literally change it. This would be like me going to a Call of Duty forum and demanding that CoD change into a turn based high fantasy game instead of an FPS game.

You could just buy games that are designed for the time of gamer you are, instead of trying to force games that aren't to be those games. ffs.
