Where to get a gun (for other RPGs)

C

Charwo

Look, Ma! Two Heads!
I feel like I should play other RPGs. Heard good things about Dragon Age Origins and Witcher. Problem: I don't want to play without a gun. Don't get me wrong, if I get Kingdom Come, which is historical, I won't whine for a gun. I wouldn't want a gun in Conan the Barbarian type game. But if yours is a fantasy world with wizards slinging fireballs, I want to be able to shoot them in the ass with a gun.

So for Witcher and Dragon Age, is there a place on the internet where I could ask to have a gun made I could enjoy these games. I asked at Nexus, but was ignored.
 
Oh this is true, so I'll probably get it at some point, but EVERYONE and their mother says Witcher is the tits, so I'd be willing to give it a shot if I had a gun.
 
I don't think it is possible for the earlier Witcher games to have guns because I don't think they have long range attack implemented.
I think the Witcher 3 has a crossbow (I never played the Witcher 3 so I am not sure) and maybe someone could make a mod to change it to a gun, but from what I heard it seems that the crossbow actually sucks, animations have problems and it takes too long to reload and doesn't do much damage, etc.

Arcanum definitely :nod:, but Lionheart only has bows and crossbows :seriouslyno:.

I think that if you are also looking for old school action RPGs, then there is: Sacred Gold.
You can play as a dwarf that can use muskets and pistols and has a cannon on his back :shock:.
I don't know if Sacred is the type of game you would want to play though. :confused:
 
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines (2004, Troika)
Fairly modern game with meaty content full of gore, insanity, and NPCs with dark triad traits. Combat system is a consoletardeous mess, you gotta love your trusty .44 Mag revolver and 12 gauge automatic shotgun!
 
Arcanum
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
Wasteland 2
Shadowrun Returns, Shadowrun: Dragonfall (Director's Cut) & Shadowrun: Hong Kong (Extended Cut)
Torchlight 1 & 2 (if that's your thing)
Pillars of Eternity (but I'm not a fan)

Might be going a bit wide with the term RPG, but also:
Spec Ops: The Line
Dishonored
 
I was actually looking for modding sites where I will have to beg like a scrub for a gun I can use. The thing is, I really want to play at least Witcher 2 and 3. But I don't want to play without a gun. I just hate the no guns in fantasy rule that much.

If you're not willing to make that concession, I don't think these games are for you.
 
Dwarf Fortress has a bunch of gun mods.

Although a good crossbow and silver bolts is basically a railgun already.
 
I havn't played the game, but apparantly Risen 2 and 3 features guns in a pirate/caribean like setting. I only played Risen 1 and it was a decent RPG, even though not as good like Gothic 1 and 2 - same developers I think.
 
Uh, maybe Borderlands suits your itch? More of a Diablo-y RPG and a shooter, of course. Better with pals.
 
Goddamnit, this isn't about which (fantasy) RPGs have guns, it's about who could mod guns into The Witcher and Dragon Age.
While I don't really see the point of refusing to play a medieval fantasy RPG just because it doesn't have guns in it (what are we talking about, anyway? Flintlock pistols that shoot a horribly inaccurate and useless ball at the enemy, followed by several minutes of reloading?), basic firearms would make sense in Dragon Age at least, since gunpowder seems to exist.
Thing is that the existence of magic in these worlds makes guns kinda useless, and of course it would make balancing the gameplay an utter nightmare...
Anyway, I guess your best bet is to learn to mod yourself. In the time you spend searching and asking for mods that apparently not many are interested in you could have just started off on your own, which is, I guess, how many modders got started in the first place.

Hey hey hey.

Barring very late 'musket proof' armour plates, even a handgun could fuck up a knight.

I'd rather face 5 archers, than one dude with a flintlock, if I had any form of good armour.
 
Only heavy arquebuses/muskets could reliably penetrate plate amour, though. Single muskets are useless, what made them fearsome (besides the moral effect of a huge noise and wall of smoke) was a whole volley of fire. Beyond a few meters you won't hit shit with these things.
Note that I do love the idea of flintlock pistols in those fantasy RPGs.There's a musket mod for Skyrim, but I suspect it blows...

Of course, it'd be unfair to compare a siege crossbow to a pistol, you'd have to compare such a thing to a musket.

Muskets were feared because...

1: they actually killed you, while arrows were significantly less lethal at all ranges.

2: any retard can use one, while you needed a lifetime of training and literal deformity (longbowmen had disproportionate arms and tendons/ligaments from their training) to use a bow.

3: they're pretty damned cheap, and easily produced by most blacksmith, while bows needed fine craft and materials.
 
I think it sucks that the use of guns made swords go out of ... fashion. God knows I would love me some fucking huge two-hander!

Armour made swords obselete.

Swords aren't main weapons, they're sidearms.

Proper 'medieval' weapons were spears, hammers, maces, pikes, lances, polearms, halberds, etc.
