Scratch that itch : Solasta

[nzguzzi]

Single player dungeons and dragons rule set.

[jack_of_tears]

Or better yet, 'Baldur's Gate 3'. Both games are in early access but BG3 has a lot more to it.

[nzguzzi]

the price......

I played through Bg3 multiple times and solasta partially. All it did was drove me to play older more complete games.

I played through Baldurs Gate (the new one) and most of the way through 2.

I played through much of Neverwinter Nights though admittedly with mods and I always end up back in infinite dungeons. And then Cyberpunk 2077 dropped which took all of my attention...

And now I'm most of the way back through this. This is still a game worth playing. It is sad that they folded.

Still arguably my favorite one is Neverwinter Nights 2 with all the expansions and the Kaedrin character mods. I'll probably give that one a good cleaning and reinstall it with the current working mods for the next run.

Yeah, I'm actually enjoying the mechanics of Solasta more than BG3 at this point...damn good game so far..the voice acting and cut scenes are meh... but the game play is excellent

2006. And yeah I actually had to look it up or I would have guessed 2005.

Heh...yeah, I have to admit, I end up having more fun playing BG 1&2, NWN 1, and NWN 2 more than any of the more recent games. That's what you get when the focus on story and content is critical to a game's survival. Too many game studios try to just jump on board the bandwagon without putting in the necessary effort.

That said, I did enjoy D:OS 2, and am hoping Larian does an excellent job on BG3. I am avoiding it until they release an official final version. Don't want to spoil it by playing a buggy game.

And, regarding SCL, even though the actual gameplay was a radical divergence from actual D&D style games (such and NWN), it was still stupidly fun to play. The biggest let down of it was that the multiplayer functionality was tied to steam, and they never implemented any form of direct connect via LAN (at the very least).

I Agree with all of the above.
Let me check out this "Solasta".
I Have been hoping for the "Ulimate" D&D game for a looooong time,ever since the original gold and silver boxes.
Neverwinter Nights closest yet imho.

Go try Drakensang also and its sequel River of Time , IMO they rank right up there with every game listed here..
