I really want to play this game, but I can't stomach brain-parasite stuff :(

[–] Burghler@sh.itjust.works 18 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It's quite tame, they're basically just acting ot a headache while the narrator says some stuff.

[–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I mean, apart from the intro, OC should definitely skip it.

[–] dwemthy@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Unless they want to get psionic powers, that screen is pretty heavy on the brain gore and worms

[–] princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Oh yeah, that too. I forgot how gore it is.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I refused to eat more worms on my playthroughs, are the powers that good?

[–] loudwhisper@infosec.pub 2 points 5 days ago

Some powers are really strong (e.g., luck of the far realm). But what is really strong is the transformation. Fly every turn? Yes please.

I feel very overpowered in dialogues for one, too many boosts to my rolls at times.

Play Divinity Original Sin 2 if you haven't already. Same developer, very similar game overall, and no brain wormy stuff. Also a masterpiece

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 7 points 5 days ago

you should do it anyway. you will be ready for real life brain parasites that are coming out in a couple years of they don't get delayed again

[–] Enoril@jlai.lu 5 points 5 days ago

You could look at the mods and checks if some remove the brain visuals. And don't go on the first floor during the intro :p
