No, it is indeed poor design. There is absolutely no reason why your character shouldn't be able to travel to Greyport to buy potions or to the well to acquire the water necessary to produce them. The priestess could still express her frustrations, but couldn't your character simply explain, "We need to be better prepared"? That is how the situation should be addressed, rather than completely restricting your movement. Factually speaking, that is a poor game design choice.
And this is still copium of the highest degree. I rest my case.
Dude the fact you deleted youre OG post says alot about this new "defense" honestly I was just being a dick to see you're reaction & it didnt disappoint (even if it's now gone
so sad). But honestly you do realise you could have gone on you're merry life, just moved on from this game without any grand (attention seeking) announcement & no one would have cared. Honestly if u beleive SWS to be a superior product then good for you, no judgments here. Butno one on here cares that much it's PORN games, come on lol.
I didn’t; the mods did. So your entire premise for this post falls apart, clownboy.Dude the fact you deleted youre OG post says alot about this new "defense" honestly I was just being a dick to see you're reaction & it didnt disappoint (even if it's now gone
Anyway you can keep arguing a point if you like, its moot, BUT just know I will not care & this is just fun to read.
Oh god no please I cant stop laughing at the Reddit level of speech!
Oh in that case I apologise for saying you deleted it. Still a shame, I was mid way writing my reply when it said I couldnt. Oh well.I didn’t; the mods did. So your entire premise for this post falls apart, clownboy.

I think you'll find my stance is wholeheartedly genuine and my malice justified.
I obviously enjoyed this game enough to sink consecutive hours into it. That’s what annoyed me so much. I don’t want to get NTRed simply because I wasn’t properly informed, nor was I able to change my plan once I was fully aware of the situation. If you aren’t meant to be aware of Grug’s presence, which I completely understand, there should be a third option: “We’ll come back better prepared.” If you choose to negotiate, there should be another option available now that you have been completely informed of the circumstances: “We should come back better prepared.” Once you have made that decision, you should be free to wander the map as usual: to go to Greyport, to visit the well, or whatever else you need to do to resolve the situation. After all, roleplaying games are about putting yourself in those characters’ shoes, and if I weren’t able to defeat a dangerous foe but knew that magical potions existed and would likely make the fight winnable, then I would go and acquire them. Given that, it should be an option.
maybe I shouldn't have dismissed your cliams as skill issue, but did you quit the game because of the encounter with grug?
I will regrind and properly prepare before I go, as I would have done had it been possible after I learned of his existence. Given that I saved several times after the priestess joined my party, I now need to restart entirely. I won’t lie; it does anger me somewhat.
by the time you face Grug, one should have already learned o prepare for the unexpected. besides you should already have magic to help you with the fight
I agree, I really should've had the potions on me regardless of whether I thought I needed them or not. That was foolish of me. I did find one of your earlier posts, regarding the Grug encounter, in which you advise to seek out Erevi before even breaking Zivah's curse. This is what I plan to do now, as I am hopefully properly informed myself this time.
plus potions shouldn't be available till you find the chalice, buying potions in greyport is an oversight on Tinkerer's partI agree, I really should've had the potions on me regardless of whether I thought I needed them or not.

All very valid points, the only defence I can give is it was early days in Tinkerer's first & only dev endeavour. Hes gotten better, not perfect, but better in the later stuff.
You just need two Venom Potions and he dies really fast.
I had no potions of any kind on me, at all. Then whatsherface got herself killed and he out DPSed me.Grug is one of the easiest opponent...
make sure to get the dog from the petstore, he'll take on a hit or twoI had no potions of any kind on me, at all. Then whatsherface got herself killed and he out DPSed me.

The shop was added to Greyport in a very late stage update, most likley in response to people complaining of nowhere to buy potions. It's still out the way from the early game so unless you know about it you're probably not realise its avalable.
