Romances are gay.

Will not buy this because the plot is gonna be ****, Minsc is in it and it's not RTwP. It is very clearly a pleb game that will have ****** encounter design and millenial writing to appease people who believe in healing crystals.

This game is going to be dos3, except it will use d&d 5e, the woke edition from the woke wizards of the coast. It’s going to be infested with that garbage. The game gives you genital sliders and you can play dress up so you can create whatever xir you want and have sex with things how you want. It would have been better to get actual dos3 than “baldurs gate 3”, then they could have done what they wanted instead of doing things like including minsc and adding furry sex to the game.
The writing and plot will be cringe tier, as is Larian tradition, not necessarily a huge deal, but imagine it being woke on top of that.
As far as mechanics go, i enjoyed dos1 but thought dos2 went in the wrong direction, so i expect that dos3 will continue in the wrong direction, why should i expect anything else?
Hopefully I am wrong about that last one and they don’t do stuff like hardcoding initiative so it can’t be fixed with mods and something can be salvaged from this.

How many more faggy fetishes do they plan to incorporate under the guise of, "but this is how tabletop players always play D&D! Don'tcha know?"

I'm so excited to take my lol-random-squee-tiefling girlfriend who is just so heckin cute and ironic (despite being a gruff barbarian girl grrr grrr) on a date at a fancy restaurant in Baldur's Gate.

I just hope it doesn't become suuuuper awkward...!!

Bro, but when she rages... she actually goes on fire!

It's okay though... giggle... her clothes don't burn off. At first. Wink.

Need @JarlFrank to weigh in.

Ugly feet, monster race, male.

Not even I would kiss that. They should have made that scene with a cute elf queen instead.

Between 1:01 and 1:03, that looks a lot like Bhaal's sign, but without the skull in the middle. It might be that the Dark Urge background is related to Bhaal.

On one hand this is like... 60's and 70's era horror American trailer stuff. On the other hand... it's Larian...

Become a Druid of the Circle of Spores and put the "fun" in "fungi" Manipulate spores to harm your enemies and then raise them as a fungal zombie!

At least they didn't say "fun guy."

wow you'll get like one zombie or summon or whatever that does nothing, so amazing

I've been hearing a lot of talk about how this game is the bestest thing ever since sliced bread. Is it true? Is it really that good? Or are CRPG fans just starved and this is just the first not-trash game they've got in a long time? Curious because I've been through this several times before where people talk about a game as if its the bestest thing ever and then I play it and I find it to be merely okay, or boring. The game looks aesthetically unappealing, and the zoomed out overhead perspective makes the game seem very detached and impersonal. The advertising of bestiality and genital customization is also suspicious.

From my experience playing the early access when it first released:
Yes.

I strongly urge nobody to pay for this because it will be the last good game Larian makes though, they added way too many employees since they made Original Sin.

I can promise you this game will suck and those 100 hours you'd spend on it would be more productively put to masturbating furiously as I plan to do and so should you.

Most fans are going to do both at the same time.

I don't understand how anyone could be hyped for this, especially here, as this is just another nostalgia cash-in project in the veins of numanuma and pillows of banality. Especially this being just a reskin of DoS2 and now with ****** **** added into the game it's clear this is hot garbage.

Okay Infinitron

Infinitron posted the Kotaku article from 2 days ago. You want me to post Kotaku here, Fedora?

LOL

Most games are **** not worth discussing. The throwaway Twitter garbage Larian posts that contains no worthwhile information certainly isn't.

It's confirmed that there will be no facial sliders, but you can adjust the size of your character's **** and vagina. This is what@rusty_shackleford is looking forward to. Normal people would have said **** this after seeing the bestiality with the bear, but not @rusty_shackleford or @The_Mask.

But seriously what is this woke obsession with vitiligo? It's not debilitating and I don't think anyone IRL gives a **** if you have it.

It's way for them to force racist whites to play a negro.

As you endlessly post about the game on Codex.
