Karlach Resculpted 1.1 — Baldur's Gate 3

[Element]

The whole series from the get go made no sense

I admit I've never played TLOU, certainly would never play TLOU2. Mushroom zombies are a bit weird but father-daughter/father-son relationships in gaming needs to appear more, in my opinion, so that's the only reason I would consider playing it.

The world itself in TLoU feels contrived, merely a backdrop to move the story forward without any great thought put into it. The world of fallout is far more dangerous, and you see people adapt to its conditions in various ways. In tlou you have none of that. People don't wear anything to prevent zombie bites on their wrists or neck ( the most frequent cause of infection in the game ). Spores barely exist and are mostly confined to basements and long abandoned buildings. The org you work for are terrorists that blow up human cities but pretend to greatly care about saving the world. They spend the whole game trying to develop a vaccine for a nonexistent problem, since 95% of the time the game over state is not achieved from infection, but from having your whole neck bitten in half. Humanity is supposed to be on its last legs but you have cannibal gangs and raider gangs setting up shop in cities and preying on the 'tourists'. Shooting a gun is supposed to be dangerous because the noise attracts zombies, yet raiders do it all the time when assaulting the dam with no repercussions. So on and so forth.

We can rebuild xer. We have the technology. We can make xer better than xe was. Better, stronger, faster.

Just give her a model with more curves and bigger booba. Fixed for good!

Realistically speaking, I'd say by looking at her, she's about a D cup actually. Above average for someone her height and build, but not super big

Could say the same thing about other popular zombie media. No one wears anything to cover themselves, sounds of gunshots are rarely thought of, and people are somehow always the biggest threat when literal flesh eating monsters are roaming around. Also, the vaccine was going to affect bites too, not just spores

Not as easy as changing a head. The armature for bodies is iffy, in comparison.
I'd actually want to reduce the shoulder & neck muscles, but it would require changing the all the BT3 heads and refit the outfits.
Aside from that, could make the normal map less defined & muscular.
The boobs are alright, not like she's flat. Perky > saggy.

Muscular women are ugly, and if you like them youre gay.

So if a guy finds Lean Beef Patty attractive, they must secretly desire to **** men?
In all honesty, if you have enough Testosterone, some athletic muscle is not really going to get in the way of the visual attraction to overtly youthful, feminine features.
The same muscles on someone that lacks a pretty face, or is too old & wrinkly, suddenly it's too off-putting.
It might not be the most logical choice for a wife but that's a separate issue.
For me, obesity is much more off-putting, and 'masculinizes' the face in a way... and we're already surrounded by that.

One time I was arguing with a ****** about pronouns, and sexuality, and my position was that biology is the only thing that mattered not how you present yourself or how you 'pass', until he pointed out that "Buck Angel" exists and asked whether it's gay or not to **** her

Even though it's technically a woman, it's still triggering the same disgust mechanism that prevents straight guys from being gay... applies to a lot of really ugly women.

I had almost forgotten about Buck... Yes, she very much passes as a man, but it's disturbing as hell to see someone so unhappy with their body that they would change it in such a drastic way. A little plastic surgery is nothing compared to all of that. Also, it's technically not gay to **** her, but it's also not straight. Anyone who does **** her is just...insane

Here's what she looks like for context. It was hard for me to find a good picture that didn't have her topless

If anyone can make Karlach look like Anna-of-the-Shadows and then mod it so that she can be a thief, then maybe I'll add her in the party.

Agreed. She is technically still a woman, just one that sounds and looks like a bald man with muscles and beard. Still, you'd have to be ******* mentally disturbed to consider ******* her. Pre-Transition she looked like the stereotypical ****.
Atleast regarding the porno stuff, she stopped and instead tries to get children away from this looney ***** stuff.

Skin-wise you can change it yourself via a mod but not sure if the body can be changed drastically without ******* up her animations (also, you can respec her easily to be a thief ingame)

I didn't know she stopped, that's good at least. Very hard to take someone seriously when they talk about serious issues, when they get ****** for a living. I first saw her on one of those Jubilee videos and she was one of the most sane people in it. Honestly the only ***** man I would ever accidentally call "he". I respect what she's said, but not enough to go along with her delusion

It is indeed something that i have noticed as of late when comparing modern RPGs to older ones, this being how the companions back then were more likeable and far more tolerable in comparison to the modern ones.

Even more impressive for me is the fact that I saw an example of such a shift in live time by Owlcat studio; the companions they had back in Kingmaker were not perfect but you had the chance to help them improve if you wanted to, and they even became better characters as a result. Meanwhile, in Wrath of the Righteous roughly half of the companions are either insufferable or absurd mary sues

(you don't expect me to believe that a single elf girl was capable of convincing a demon lord to become good!)

, and the only one you can genuinely help to change for the better is one that was already on the path to redemption.

In modern games it almost feels like the developers want us to lose our agency as a main character.

EDIT: Added spoiler tag for the ones who have not played WotR.

My facial mod is probably the closest you're getting unless Arisen has another suggestion.

https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/5204 gives her a normal Tiefling Body

https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/1851 The mod that smoothed out the wings/ spikes from BT3 is outdated now

viewtopic.php?p=41541-valkyrie-karlach- ... r-s-gate-3 Tiefling version, without the optional face texture, makes her pink, and there seems to be an option for red hair there too.

The only mods I've seen that change the bodies, don't effect BT3, and are usually ridiculous coomer bait anyway.

[The_Mask]

The part about Ember is Pathfinder canon. Basically it's the innocence of children being able to change the people around them. It's a real cheap writing trick because it makes the character immune to criticism in the sense that nobody is going to ever argue the innocence of children.

That being said, Regill is the only party member WOTR has. The rest are mostly cardboard cut-outs. lol

Can you make mirrors for those on the HQ? Or can I take them and make mirrors for them here?

I don't want to give the Nexus *any* sort of clicks or traffic.

Oh yeah I'm aware that the "Redeemer Queen" or whatever is part of the Pathfinder 2e lore, is just that WotR offers a so-called explanation of why it happened even though Nocticula slowly going through that path was already alluded to in sourcebooks that predated WotR, hence why I found the CRPG explanation extremely forced and ridiculous.

Yeah, Rusty doesn't have any issue with reuploading them, do you have access to the vault?

Oh yeah. I was just being nice in case it's your mod and you would like to put it up. I'm very hesitant to play with someone else's work.

No, I've not uploaded anything to Nexus in ages, and it was nothing I care about.

Wrong thread for this, but it's really weird how the FTM ******** REALLY look like their desired gender, yet many the other way round just look like a man in a wig lol.
Also it is totally gay to **** that, no matter what their chromosomes are, if you **** that, you're attracted to male looks.

Yes, the man that performed the action is gay for his desires/ lack of disgust, but the action itself is technically "a man having sex with a woman" in the most legalistic, literal terms, and is therefore difficult to call "gay," otherwise you open the door for the inevitable...
"By that logic, how is it gay to **** an attractive man that passes as a woman?" etc

Maybe we need a new word.
Regardless, that thing is apparently a woman, with woman bits, but could you get it up for that thing? Blergh.
I guess someone who is (unknowingly) attracted to a FULLY "passing" mtf trap isn't gay for being attracted to feminine looks, but if they're still attracted once they find out about the big surprise, well..
Our world is so messed up.
