Baldur's Gate 3 vs. Pathfinder vs. Solasta (CRPGs of 2021)
When one writes "vs." you might see that as an opposition, dispute, feud.
The way I see it is: Baldur's Gate 3 + Pathfinder + Solasta
Gotta catch'em all, why not?

What you need to know about The Outer Worlds: Murder on Eridanos - InverseThe release of Battle Brothers on the Nintendo Switch is almost upon us! Before Battle Brothers releases on Thursday, March 11th, Jan takes you on a quick tour through the Switch version to show how the controls work and that the game plays as well as ever, if not better!
You can already preorder the Switch version of Battle Brothers with 15% off here.
The Iron Oath Update #57 Mod Support - KickstarterInstead of ending in late December like the normal calendar year, the fiscal year actually ends on March 31. Therefore, as of early February, the plan was to release Murder on Eridanos before the end of March 2021.
By comparison, Peril on Gorgon was announced during the July 2020 Xbox Games Showcase for a September 9, 2020 release, so the timeline for this second DLC is already very different. It’s worth noting, however, that September 9 fell on a Wednesday. Therefore, the last possible — and most likely — day for Murder on Eridanos to be released is March 31, 2021.
Solasta: Crown of the Magister Dungeon Maker Interview - WCCFTechA quick reminder before I get started that if you haven't done so yet please wishlist The Iron Oath on steam and to join our discord!
We've still been hard at work on The Iron Oath and this month we wanted to detail something we've been asked about a lot but wanted to wait till we were a little closer to launch before talking more about it…. mod support!
The Way of Wrath Successfully Funded - KickstarterLater this month, the developers will release a dungeon maker tool that should greatly extend the game's replayability factor. Ahead of this tool's public release, we had the chance to speak with Tactical Adventures founder Mathieu Girard (who was a co-founder of Amplitude, the studio behind Endless Space) community lead Emile Zhang, and communications manager Pierre Worgague.
It's a lengthy chat, make no mistake, but also one that delves deep into what the dungeon maker can and cannot, at least for the time being, do.
THANK YOU!
What a day! What a journey! This is surreal ^_^
In just one month you have changed our lives forever and we are filled with immense gratitude, and a sense of responsibility and focus to create for you an amazing game.
You are amazing!
The Kickstarter campaign has ended, but a new larger journey has begun!
The Way of Wrath from day one was imagined to be a community-driven development game.
No problem as I'm tired and burned out on this thread. So post away.PS: oops, I hope it's no problem posting that here BTW?
Already am so expect slower updates on this thread.If you are burned out, then you need to take a break.
Biomutant Preview - GamingBoltPascal's Wager, the critically-acclaimed, dark RPG is finally coming to Steam after a mobile release. The Steam version of Pascal's Wager includes 4K graphics and improved visuals as well as fully mappable keyboard and controller support.
Soalsta: Crown of the Magister - Spring Update PreviewWhether or not Biomutant excels at this tactic of throwing everything at you but the kitchen sink, we'll have to wait to get our hands on it and give it an official review, but if nothing else the game should definitely garner our attention with its ambition and with what it's been able to pull off so far.
The Outer Worlds: Murder on Eridanos expansion Preview RoundupNow that the Dungeon Maker has been revealed, it's time for more good news. We will be releasing a Spring Update soon - in a matter of weeks! Exciting news isn't it, now stay with me for a bit longer to read about the upcoming content that you'll be able to enjoy… At least some of it! You'll have to come back next week for a date and the rest of the exciting changes we'll be bringing to Solasta now that Winter is over!
Last week, we started collecting input from backers with the following reward tiers: Royal Herbalist, Boxed Edition, Undead Miser, Early Access, Royal Historian and all higher-level tiers that include their rewards. If you have any of these reward tiers and haven't yet filled out the survey we sent you for the corresponding reward items (such as a message in a Catacomb/Crypt, Undead miser loot, or a herb choice),please make sure to do so before 26th March 2021. Since the development of the game is concluding these months, we have to lock down the design of many things on 26th March, which means it will not be possible to add your input into the game after this date.
Input for reward items with more advanced design (such as helping us in the creation of an item, NPC or adventurer party) hasn't been initiated yet, so the above deadline doesn't apply here.

Valheim Early Access Preview - GamebansheeWelcome back to another Inside the Vault! This week, we're sharing how you can join us in the Public Test Server (PTS) to playtest our upcoming Locked and Loaded Update. You can also watch our latest Dev Dive video to take a closer look at C.A.M.P. Slots and S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Loadouts with members of the Fallout 76 Development Team. Read on to learn more.
Gamedec Developer Diary - Developing a Minor NPCWhile I can’t really consider Valheim an RPG, it certainly has enough RPG elements to scratch a similar itch, especially if you're someone who enjoys the more sandbox examples of the genre like, say, Mount & Blade or Outward.
And with Valheim consciously moving away from some of the more annoying features of the survival genre, it can also act as a pretty decent introduction to it, especially if the developers keep adding more stuff to the early access build.
Path of Exile Development Manifesto - Harvest CraftingWith hundreds of NPCs in Gamedec, wouldn't that be great if a player could have a deep, immersive conversation with every character in the game? Even with that somewhat random NPCs just loitering and minding their own business? Then again, some players would feel compelled to talk to everyone in fear of missing out on a hidden quest, a clue, or collectible codex information. That would result in a terrible experience.
This is why we have a mixed bag of NPCs in the game - amongst some complex, heavily branched interactions, there are smaller roles, such as Cowgirl_1, a minor resident of "Harvest Time" - a Wild West-themed, FTP farming multiplayer game you can visit as one of the sensory worlds in Gamedec.
We're going to be making some further changes to Harvest Crafting with the release of 3.14.0 in April. In short, we're concerned by how deterministic some Harvest Crafts are and how easily players can craft near-perfect items. We don't feel that this is consistent with how Path of Exile's itemisation should work. Before we detail what changes are coming, we want to explain a bit about Harvest's initial implementation and our design philosophy around items and crafting.

Hopefully you'll enjoy the game and help us make it better.
