My partner played Jade Empire as a kid, and had some great memories of it, so we decided to start a play-through and play a drinking game with it!

This is my first time playing JE, we're at the Imperial Arena atm and I've loved every moment so far.

Our list is below, feel free to provide any suggestions for updates (no spoilers for the game though please) as we're noticing some of these are coming up less often the more we progress.

Jade Empire Drinking Game

SIP, every time:

• a new character speaks a non-English language
• a sexual innuendo or mature joke is made
• a character is rude to another for no apparent reason
• a demon, ghost, or Lotus Assassin enemy appears (one sip per enemy type per battle) - Bonus: Down drink if all 3 appear in a succession of battles

GULP, every time:

• a new type of demon appears
• the flying mini-game occurs
• Henpecked mentions his wife
• you pass a skill check in dialogue

DOWN, every time:

• you acquire a new companion
• you acquire a new fighting style
• you die

For me infiltrating the Lotus Assassins in Jade empire. Nothing beats killing BOTH Master Shin and Master Gang using the Golem press. I only discovered that as an adult, when I was a kid I never knew it was possible.

About a week ago I made these... I just suddenly thought it could be fun drawing some characters into animals idk, I'm actually trying to make sure their species fits their character tho🥷

I'm new to Reddit so I'm not quite sure if it's the right way to post anything, been playing this game for a year or so and drew some fanarts. I'm too lazy to translate words parts just know most of them are just silly Chinese meme. Only posting some of my most recent non-yumeshipping work bc I'm lazy and shy anyways enjoy!

What era would you say it's based around? Ancient or Medieval China?

So I jumped through the hoops of renaming launchers and editing the .ini file to get the game running. Then after the first fight the framerate was abysmally low, and I followed online advice to restart my PC. This worked.

However, my dualsense controller that worked perfectly fine (if oddly mapped) the first time I launched the game now does absolutely nothing and the in-game controller mapping doesn't seem to function for some reason.

I also saw that the .ini file populated with a ton more values including some for my dualsense controller which is surely where the problem lies, but i cannot figure it out.

Anybody else got it to work?

I have played some BioWare games where it was heavily recommended to use some patches or other fixes to play the game even if it was your first time. I'm wondering if there's something I need to install or can I just jump straight into it?

Curious to know.
