Even when your not being harassed by your companions.. almost 80% of their backstories / discussion topics revolve around sex.

The only thing I know about Gale is that he's from Waterdeep and wants to bang Mystra.

Someone posted, on IRC, the Twitter/X profile of one of the writers for this game. Yes, it is exactly the type of person you would expect. Shockingly, English is their first language.

Humbaba ****** off from codex to cry about his **** game here instead lmao.

Notice how not even in this forum nobody except you talks about trannyfinder. Just face it bro it's a **** game and always have been. BG3 at least has enjoyable combat that don't want to make you ************* from bloated boredom. ******* ******.

Is it just me or do the companions never interact with each other in this game? It's like they only exist when interacting with the MC.

They don't, and thanks for that. The less they talk, the better.

@rusty_shackleford make a separate thread for posting forbidden mods via the vault. That'll bring in the big bucks (and thousands of cp mods)

I'm tempted to reply to him, to make him understand how things really are, but this is the thing with the real world: the more you age, the less people are likely to tell you how dumb you are.

And that goes double when you're famous. Or "famous". Depends on what you wanna use for Josh Sawyer.

Yeah it's huge, like a gaping ****** ******* after being plowed by a bear. THIS IS WHAT YOU PEOPLE SUPPORT
I like eroticism, I like art that combines the erotic and grotesque, I'm far from a puritan, but this **** is so ******* insipid. I've noticed it most prominently in Dragon Age Inquisition, Wrath of the Righteous, and now most prominently in BG3, but there's this way that a lot of modern games, and shows and popular literature and its assorted fan fictions (which I think is where most of these trends come from), treat sex that I find horribly unappealing but hard to put into words. It's simultaneously pornographic but also childish. It's like they've turned straight sex into ****** sex, cruising from one perversion to another with a quip and a wink, dressed up in rainbows and candy colors, while in reality its knee-deep in stinky ****. I think these demons call the style "*****." Everything is casual, with an air of detached irony to it, especially the most fetishistic and depraved acts; an invitation to an incestuous three-some is met with the jarringly modern quip, "You do you," which can be responded to with "spoilsport." And the topper is this all comes from people who call old-school games sexist "teen boy fantasies" because they had some women with moderately big boobs in tanktops.

wait, r u telling Wrath of the Righteous woke trash with ugly ******* and pedo bears as well? dude i torrented like 2 gig already, should i stop?

as for incesteous bit, its revolting, but only cause it was *** and flat **** rather than 2 milk bursting elf toys. no need for it to be casual either, i agree no satisfaction unless u own the *****, just add em to player doll collection. ideally there would be mommy for foursome (if its elf and dont age) so she could be reprimened how poorly she raised her daughters.

back when **** promoted their groomer pedophilia with taste;

Someone on Steam was able to datamine the game and found a whole bunch of content that was cut from the game: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1086940/ ... 885064204/
As you can see much of the content that was cut was for Act 3. **** shame that a lot of this content was cut. Especially the Upper City, Hag Coven in Act 2 and 3, Epilogues, and Tadpole's and Consequences. Other content that interest me that was cut was Karlach Good Ending where you would be able to fix her heart but was cut as it was tied to the Upper City and getting Cazador as a potential ally in the fight against the Absolute. Here is hoping that Larian will restore much of the cut content in a Definitive Edition that we all know will come down the line in the next year or so.
