I plan to play Avowed eventually! I like to play games in release order, so I am currently working through the first "Pillars of Eternity" game, and then I will play "Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire." These games take place in Eora, the same setting as Avowed~

OMG I just looked up what the costs were for the original copies of that FO1 book and they're like $175+, with some versions being like $400! 🤯
That's insane! I do not blame you at all for making your own copy.

And I got a physical copy of the strategy guide for like $15 and I lucked out with the shipping costs ($5), so it only cost me $20!

Compared to getting the art books for the LotR movies or any of the WH40k TTRPG handbooks, these Arcanum books were absolute steals!

I was surprised that I was able to snag a copy too! I think the shipping to my (admittedly rural) location was more expensive than the actual book lol~

The way you render and draw fabric is so gorgeous! ✨

I first tried giving Pillars of Eternity 1 a shot back in January. The story had me hooked but omg my brain just doesn't compute with "real time w/ pause" gameplay.
I got so overwhelmed I had to put the game down.

Now, the open beta for Turn Based Mode is finally out and I've been having a blast!~

Sometimes we need a break from the tablet.
I got digital art fatigue after Art Fight in July & went on a pencil-sketching spree til I finally came back to digitally drawing again in mid-late September.
I personally enjoy the roughness of my pencil scribbles, w/ some minor digital touch-ups + color~

the uncensored heinrix tit got you 😔

hell yeah this is what i work a full time job for 💪 🧀🧀🧀
(love it love it love it!!! 💝💖💘)

-then just use my legit level-ups to buy new skills since those are level-gated anyway. I think that paces things out while cutting most of the tedium away so I can mainly enjoy the quests and the setting~
I also have UAP's QoL patches toggled too, such as a more traditional XP system + bug patches.

I totally understand that, and kudos to you for giving it a shot!
I'll admit: I do not play this game "fairly." My personal life is also just too busy to bother with "legitimately" leveling up. I play w/ the Unofficial Arcanum Patch's menu and just max my stats from the start by adding skill points-

ty! And samesies! Lineart is so exhausting that I don’t really do it anymore. I feel like it never looks as good as my sketches. Nowadays, my “lineart” is kinda like traditional pencil sketching where I lightly sketch, then use more bolder strokes on the same layer, then erase til it’s clean enough~

THERE HE IS!! HANDSOME VAN CALOX 🥰💕💗💖💞💓💘💝❤️‍🔥💋☃️
