1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

Yeah, Baldur’s Gate 3 for certain. Shadowheart, Astariaon and Wyll, left to right. The red icon mean Wyll has 70% chance to hit with that Eldritch Blast.

[–] StephniBefni@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

And yet, he will miss...

[–] sic_1@feddit.de 9 points 1 year ago

And the Screenshot is made in the underdark, right west of the entrance below the goblin camp. This game deserves all of it praise.

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

I've never played BG3 but I do play D&D and yeah that sounds about right for eldritch blast

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 42 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Baldur's Gate 3. That's a beholder.

[–] Durandal@lemmy.today 35 points 1 year ago

A “spectator”, specifically. A lesser beholder.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Spectator. Beholders are even more dangerous.

[–] PhlubbaDubba@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

Imagine if they hit a level five party with an entire goddamned beholder

Probably after you accidentally found out that one of the cutscenes entering the underdark was you flailing about like a limp noodle because you jumped down the gap instead of taking the ladder.

That is a cacodemon, this is clearly Doom (1993)

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cacodemons were designed after a D&D monster, so there is a connection.

He looks so happy; I hope that someday, I'll find an occupation that I love too

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

baldur's gate 3?

[–] zcd@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This mfer surprised the shit out of me

[–] littlebluespark@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same. I snuck through the Withers temple and found myself in the Underdark. While admiring the vista, some minotaur ran up a side path and got vaporized by some statues, so I was about to turn around, but pushed on a little — straight into that ambush. Being around 4th level, and decades of D&D under my belt IRL, I could guess at my chances. When I reloaded, I ended up taking the main path through (was at the gate when the minotaur did the same kamikaze run) around 6th+ and had a decent time of it. The Underdark is not for sub-5th level parties 🤪

[–] SillySpy@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I had the exact same experience. My poor level 4s didn’t stand a chance

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

That’s Pac Man 2024

[–] ElcaineVolta@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Final Fantasy, this is a Malboro

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Clearly that's Pacman.

[–] cafuneandchill@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That's Devil May Cry (featuring Abraham Lincoln from Super Mario Bros.)
Produced by SQUARE ZENIS (colloquially known as "Squeenis")

[–] hperrin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That looks like Grand Theft Auto 5. I believe the car in the screenshot is the Dodge Corolla XS.
