The traditional answer to this is to just not let players cast spells that would be costly to implement, in the same way that we can't currently cast Reincarnate or Magic Jar. There are still high level combat spells to look forward to, like Meteor Swarm.
I know, Minecraft isn't in the Google trends data I was looking at. The phrase "the children yearn for the mines" is listed as having significant search interest in '05.
Why would I have my watch history turned off? I assumed that Google knows what I watched whether or not I tell them to keep that info available for me.
Hmm, I was pretty sure this was an inferior version of another tweet, but that tweet was in 2022, so if this tweet was really in 2020 then it was first (the timestamp has been "conveniently" cropped out)... but KnowYourMeme thinks the 2022 tweet was the first instance of "the children yearn for the mines."
So I looked at the Google trends, and the first search interest in this phrase was in 2005!? What's the original?
I'm mostly just surprised that I've seen people say AC6 is more accessible than previous ACs when it's probably the hardest AC game since Last Raven. The chapter 1 boss is as hard as the final boss of Verdict Day.
Of course, I said the same thing about Elden Ring; my friend was trying to convince our other friends that it was more approachable than Dark Souls, and I was like "The first story boss has higher moveset complexity than Nameless King phase 2!" I think in the end most people still found it more approachable, which I don't really understand because I think it was way harder than the non-DLC parts of DS3, so maybe I'm just looking at these games wrong/weird.
It's not the lack of a grid specifically that bothers me in BG3, it's that there are a lot of scenarios where in tabletop an enemy would be ruled to have cover, but in BG3 the shot is simply obstructed and your character needs to move before they can take it.
Also sometimes the automatic positioning for melee attacks is bad and will tell you that you can't reach, but if you click to move and then click to attack you actually can.
Also the fact that AoE spells target the ground specifically instead of an arbitrary point in space, which means in some areas you get weird situations where the enemies are close enough together to fireball all of them but you can't do it from your location because the spot where you need to place the fireball is in a slight depression that you can't see into from where you are.
Also there is some weirdness about casting AoEs through doorways, where even if you can see someone that doesn't mean you can fireball them because it's treating the fireball "projectile" as being wider than I would expect, so that it can only go through at certain angles.
I do think a grid system would be less likely to have these issues, but they could be fixed without it.
It doesn't have to be "proper" if it works as a joke. It implies that a Bethesda game can't be merely "buggy," it must be the "buggiest," even if it's (paradoxically) less buggy. So, "least buggiest."
You can revivify party members who fell into chasms by using the scroll/spell on their "soul orb," which should appear somewhere in the area. Granted, it may be far enough away that you need to survive the fight first.
I'm excited, but I'm not done with BG3 yet, and I'm also supposed to be getting stuff in order so that I can move, so it's going to have to wait until next month.
Isn't this still a thing? Almost every character I've played in 5e who wasn't a human would have been mechanically stronger as a Variant Human (or a Custom Lineage with the feat option) than as whatever they were.
Were 11% of people in 2017 really out there dating their coworkers? Isn't that hella awkward? What are you going to do if you have a messy breakup and you still have to see each other every day?
Like "you get a fine" illegal, or "you go to jail" illegal, or "Judge Dredd executes you in the street for possessing stimulants" illegal? If the punishment is light or the risk is low, many people probably just keep using it, like alcohol during Prohibition. If there's a harsh punishment and the risk of actually being punished is high, there might be riots.
