Can't you just write it off after h5 first pages?

Forget Kanshi, have the students commit seppuku to redeem their failures

I prefer this option as well.

I wish. The problem is that the writing is appalling for a native English speaker with no dyslexia. Huge problems with basic grammar, spelling, understanding of causality, etc. Trying to parse meaning out of some of the sentences makes me want to carve someone's heart out with a spoon. It's so bad I'm starting to think they used my phone's autocorrect to write it.

I've been playing Divinity Original Sin and I must say this must be one of the best RPGs I've ever played. There's a whole layer of complexity I was not expecting.

Is this no 1 or 2. I bought no 1 reading it is one of the best RPGs and seeing all their rewards, only having played it a few hours with a friend and finding it very boring and too comical

And for some reason a lot of people we meet say what you are saying. My friend is into games like Baulder's Gate and Icewind Dale and I have been playing RPG TT since I was 10 yo.

While I don't deal with quite your level of writing when I have to edit, I feel this hard.

I havent got into it but I heard Pillars of Eternity is more the Baldurs Gate game

[Ide Amaya]

Pillars of Eternity definitely has that retro feel, but they needed an entire book to explain crafting and ain't nobody got fo' dat.

Pillars had crafting? *quietly blocks that memory out*

...undergrad instructor's version of the wooden wakizashi. For native speakers with no learning disabilities, anyway.

I had the exact same feeling until I started playing it more. It really is good.

And from the looks of it the second one will be even better.

Nice, although grammar and spelling get their own section in the thesis marking sheet so in a way I am enforcing grammar rules

(Students with learning disabilities get special assistance/consideration, and I wouldn't be venting if that was the case with this student.)

I guess I'm just shocked that 16+ years in education can end up looking like this. And that universities still insist on dropping the requirements for decent grades in English, Chemistry, and one of Maths or Physics before you can study Biology

I tried to get into Divinity, OS, but I just bounced off it. Combat was interesting, but I couldn't find a plot and it was very open-ended and vague, with segments that felt very "I WAS A KICKSTARTER REWARD" and in the end I just kinda never found a point of contact to attach to.

[Seppun Aramoro]

Also, Hideo, we never got to see any bloodspeaker action.

Maybe next game...

Wait what?! Where was this? I trusted the man to set up my marriage.

*Glares at Samai* Is... she....?
