Most of the pozz in BG3 is buried away in the second half of the game, which coincidentally is when the game starts falling apart and isn't well liked.Vergil wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 09:18Almost a chicken and egg scenario though no? The people who make gay interracial simulators tend to be unable to make good games and people who make a game where you play as cool space fascists without politisperging probably can. Baldurs Gate 3 is well known for its poz level and it was a massive success after all.
What's the over under on Todd Howard starting a one man Kurt Cobain cover band?
Yeah. Its got sony drm, though.Jordy wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 09:48Helldivers II looks like what a Starship Troopers game should be.

I'd go further and say it's the last third.rusty_shackleford wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 10:48Most of the pozz in BG3 is buried away in the second half of the game, which coincidentally is when the game starts falling apart and isn't well liked.Vergil wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 09:18Almost a chicken and egg scenario though no?

That case sounds a lot like how if you try to diverge from the story by choosing to join the villains, it basically just converges to the same place anyway.SoLong wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 11:20I'd go further and say it's the last third.rusty_shackleford wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 10:48Most of the pozz in BG3 is buried away in the second half of the game, which coincidentally is when the game starts falling apart and isn't well liked.Vergil wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 09:18Almost a chicken and egg scenario though no?

I could've lived with Aylin (minus her #girlboss attitude because **** that entitled *****) and Isobel if they made her less of an extra-special creator's pet OR less abrasive.
The part where the shield around the inn goes down if she dies (for no ******* reason except to punish you for killing off the creator's pet) is especially blatant in its favoritism. Bringing the shield down because the priestess maintaining it gets knocked out and kidnapped? Understandable. Bringing it down because some bint completely unconnected to it (who was imprisoned before the shield was even put up) croaks? Yeah, I call ********.
It's why I appreciate the Ser Aylin mod so much: It lets me expunge the creator's pet while giving the middle finger to whatever landwhale insisted on the blowback for killing her.
That still leaves the ***** alive though and she gets the last word in because she swears she'll hunt you down once she's free. She's still immortal and Lorroakan is an absolute idiot so I wouldn't trust him to keep the Mary Sue imprisoned for more than a month.ArcaneLurker wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 12:13That case sounds a lot like how if you try to diverge from the story by choosing to join the villains, it basically just converges to the same place anyway.
You can betray the gigadyke later & fight her.
I thought the wizard puts up something that prevents her immortality. She can die even when you don't betray her, just from fighting the wizard by your side. Doesn't really matter at that point, because either way, the story is almost finished by that point and she may as well not exist due to being stuck in the background at camp. She is an author's pet though.SoLong wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 12:17That still leaves the ***** alive though and she gets the last word in because she swears she'll hunt you down once she's free.

Nah, he drains her immortality for himself but she still gets up with 1 HP each round. Her imprisonment is the same deal as Thorm did: She still can't die but whoever put her in there is also immortal.ArcaneLurker wrote: β February 13th, 2024, 12:22I thought the wizard puts up something that prevents her immortality.
