Have been playing this for a while and having a blast on my first playthough which end up being a very unoptimized build of sniper/AR mismatch with some psy and crafting.

so are anon play their RPG blind and often make an unoptimized build or make an OP optimized build?

The way I see it (((optimizing builds))) is something you dick around on NG+ and anything more than some light minmaxing or general specialization requires reading wikis and shit, and that kinda kills the thrill of (((optimizing builds))).

So you try to optimizing blind?

for me NG+ kinda lost all its appeal after seeing all you can see and explore everything in the game world except there is expansion and underrail expansion has been teased for so long without any concrete release time

No, I just went in and had fun trying out shit until I know what's what and the "optimization" bit naturally happened. In UR specifically I'd save on gaining each level and before trying out how skill A works or how it works with B, C or D. If it worked differently to how I expected or plain sucked I always had a recent fallback point. Less headache that way.

Now, I'd say that number crunching for the sake of number crunching was never my thing. And seeing you can ruin just about anything with a decent enough snipe (for example) muh powergaming isn't really necessary.

it seems you cant get away from savescumming from a turn-base RPG like this, is there any other recent game like this with maybe better design that may be give you some leeway so you dont need to savescum so much

I can't remember which game it was but there was one where you could refund a point for XP, maybe someone remembers.

If you're going to use buzzwords some dipshit journo pulled out of his ass and the reddit and twitch crew popularized you might as well learn their meaning. Having a safety net and potentially saving hours =/= reloading until you hit jackpot in a roulette mini-game.

>>14100897

There's quite a few more than a single game that offer that.

No, OP. I'm sorry you didn't cut your teeth on games that went out of their way to fuck with you. And no I'm not talking the holy grail of r/self-fellators "souls like" that for all their difficulty require you to smash your head against something until it gives. I'm talking games where not picking up that seemingly insignificant petrified toad turd would leave you up shit creek without a paddle come a fucking challenge that required that specific fucking turd to advance the plot. Sixty hours in and twenty hours later. And I'm definitely sorry it's more fashionable to play how other people expect you to play and hunt for achievements and shit instead of having fun, losing saves to corruption or being at the mercy of forced updates for few examples.

>so seems to know other recent game like this mind to share

Like what? crpgs with guns or those with (((refund a point for XP)))?

I'm just looking for a turnbase rpg with similar gameplay like divinity OS and underrail.

and sorry to "trigger" you but yes i dont like to relied on extensive use of save game to just enjoy the game like when you have to defeat carnivex in arena with subpar build and end up relying on RNG because there is no other method to defeat him other than straight up combat

Isn't that the whole point of building a character?

Jesus Christ, OP, I would understand if we were talking a game like Age of Decadence where your build is everything, but fucking Underrail? Making a good build is piss easy even when going in blind and there's a shitton of viable alternatives to pick from. Literally all you have to do is read the stat description and think at least a little bit
