Depends on the orc. Forgotten Realms have two kinds.
Mountain Orcs are borderline morons woth piggish faces and live in filth.
Grey Orcs are still savage barbarians but they're more civilized in that they have a culture and basic customs they follow.
It's like the difference between Misty Mountain orcs and Uruk-hai but grey orcs are Uruk-hai with a little sprinkle of Warcraft orcs thrown into the mixture.

well "dates" as we have them now probably didn't exist in medieval times historically because romance was mostly arranged marriages that happened when both parties were pretty young, even in cities (although all but the absolute largest medieval cities probably paled in comparison to Baldur's Gate as presented)
but it is a fantasy world so some suspension of disbelief in that regard can be allowed
Arranged marriages were mostly among upper class and people of wealth. For commoners it was all courting, dowries, and lower class the families just tried to get them to spend time together so the son would accept the daughter.
Maybe people didn't sit with a menu in front of them, but they definitely went and got some food and drink together.
True but also false.
Arranged marriages was common among the wealthy like merchants and nobles.
Peasants had a lot more freedom in that regard.

Zevlor is planning to sacrifice all the Tieflings to his Devil master and is actually an Asmodeus cultist. It got fully datamined a while back, including all the voice lines of the Tieflings in shock that he's betraying them. You can also listen to his Speak With Dead Dialogue and get hints to it.
in bg2 they could start with 19 strength and con which was massive, they made great barbs or fighters. idk what their stats are like in 5e, i'm new to it. they are thematically fitting for a barb still though
I like playing big, strong, and menacing characters, so I'll play as either half-orc or dragonborn. But since everyone gets the big body now I might go with tiefling or some other races.
From 2nd Edition Meteor Storm
4x large and 4x smaller meteors fall >...The large spheres (2-foot diameter) inflict 10d4 points of damage, bursting in a diamond or box pattern. Each has a 30-foot diameter area of effect, and each sphere is 20 feet apart along the sides of the pattern, creating overlapping areas of effect and exposing the center to all four blasts. The smaller spheres (1-foot diameter) each have a 15-foot diameter area of effect, and each inflicts 5d4 points of damage. They burst in a pattern of a box within a diamond or vice versa, with each of the outer sides 20 feet long.
It's kind of like that, but instead of having damage spread out in multiple different diameter explosions, all of that damage and all of that range were added up together at once(without a save), so at least a 200ft diameter of all 70d4 damage. And this is 2e where health values were much lower. And then it's a comedy series so turn that up a couple of notches anyway
>But in BG1 you could choose to control your impulses and even convert your powers to good.
That's too boring for Larian.
BG3 Bhaalspawn is an edgy school shooter that makes Sarevok look tame.
Dark urge is functionally acts the same way as BG1/2 protagonist. You also got nightmares of murder and bloodshed in that game but dark urge seem more unhinged. I chalk it up to literal fatherless behavior because gordon's ward had a ton of support.
I said it made sense for her at least, being woman mad is probably a positive considering her loadout. Its just most female writing these days is just them being angry.
So in Act 2 you can potentially get mutilated beyond belief by Shaar cultists? Fuark. I bet it puts all the scar options on your character's body and face
So can I get into this game if I don't know shit about D&D or the other Baldur's Gate games?
Never heard of the game until this bear thing started flooding the board, but I really liked Divinity OS and this is being made by the same guys. The screenshots I've seen so far make the game look sort of similar to Divinity.

If you liked DOS, BG3 will likely have the same sense of humor, but a different ruleset/world. They slapped the BG name on this for marketing purposes, so the older games will likely turn you off if you weren't playing them when they came out.
>They slapped the BG name on this for marketing purposes, so the older games will likely turn you off if you weren't playing them when they came out.
BG1 is plain bad. BG2 is as bad as KOTOR. BG3 is better in every way.
Bg3 seems better mechanically but also more gay writing-wise. Also I don't like most of the BG3 companions as much as the BG2 ones. Halsin is cool but them showing him in gay sex scenes makes me like him less. I hate playersexual shit. BG doesn't need sex scenes, especially not gay ones. I also don't think the OST is as good as ToB's OST.
I mean I did play bg1-2 with fully custom party too but seeing all the effort they put into their origin guys that seems like you would miss a lot of cool shit

Closer to tabletop. Not as autismally accurate as solasta was, but it's more accurate than the original games were mechanically.
Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition removed a lot of crunch and mechanics that could be considered barriers to entry for new players.
Compared to 3rd edition and 3.5 4th never happened frick you its nearly a different game, but a lot easier to explain to new players and get them to the table and enjoy it.

The fact you never even HEARD about the series called Baldur's Gate is a giant redflag.
You're either a complete casual player who players mobile games, CSGO, LOL, Valorant, Roblox and other shit, or you're a newbie and a child to boot.
There's just no way an adult who isn't a newbie and/or not a casual gamer wouldn't even heard about the series.

I've heard of BG before, but I've never touched either of the games and I didn't know it was getting a sequel.
Mostly play games from genres like Fighting, Rhythm, Platformer, JRPGs, TRPGs, etc so WRPGs are almost never on my radar. For example, if Ganker hadn't been talking so much about Diablo 4 I probably wouldn't have remembered it came out this year. The other BG games are just in that unknown mass to me that is WRPGs.
The only reason I played Divinity is because I was looking for another TRPG to play after finishing XCOM2 and it was the first thing Steam farted out as a recommendation. I am very uncultured when it comes to these type of games.
Why is she evil? I could fix her if she wasn't so goddamned evil. Not even just evil, but outrageously so. Not even a Paladin of Sarenrae could fix that.
is there anything more broken from a CRPG perspective than human warlock? >abilities scale with charisma >have a frickton of utility spells >eldritch blast can knock enemies off cliffs >park your lock next to a ladder and just send anyone getting up back into the abyss >charisma governs intimidation and persuasion >your main stat essentially allows you to pass speech checks to also get your way out of combat >intimidation is there if you want to be an evil c**t >also gain access to shit like animal speech and charm, making even more interactions and dialogue skill checks a breeze
the only thing thatd hinder this is Dark Urge but I have a feeling that Human Warlock with DU would be the go-to chaotic evil playthrough

Found out my MBTI most closely aligns with Neutral Evil. Anyone have suggestions as to what race/class I should pick for BG3?
Races/sex that are automatically disqualified: >Dwarves >Halflings >any other shortstack race >female
I'm wondering the same. >gay sex with bears >sex with tieflings >sex with frog girl >frog girl cucks (you) >party members frick each other >lesbians scissoring >hand holding with elf girl
It's not just anons being anons, this is all the devs talk about.
>cucks you
It doesn't, it still has a lot of schizos shitposting about it just like they do here though >bestiality
There is zero bestiality, and if these is, it sure as hell doesn't involve any of the romance options
DOS2 has better widespread appeal because it's a multiplayer game with simplified character building and combat, and a very interactive overworld. It's significantly easier to get people to play DOS2 than it is to get them to play other CRPGs even if those games have multiplayer like Solasta and Wasteland 3 because they lack the shitpost factor of DOS2.
I'm not the biggest WRPG player but of all the ones I've played, I've never seen a priestess/cleric being played straight, it's like they're always hiding something, which is the opposite of JRPGs where the priestess/cleric girls are one of the most common trope.
In D&D and it's derivaties, clerics can be of any god which includes evil ones like the series relevant Bhaal, lord of murder, or ones that encourage underhandedness so it's not weird.
So what exactly is the difference between the oath of devotion and the oath of Ancients? I get Devotion is basically your knight in shining armour but what makes Ancients so different?
The owlbear cub is going to eat him if you keep it around, isn't it?

Why is genetics such a fricking dice roll?
This sounds like complete bullshit. Lactose intolerance just means your body lacks the lactase necessary to break down the lactose for disgestion, which is only an issue when drinking pasteurized milk because raw milk already contains lactase. White people obviously weren't pasteurizing their milk hundreds of years ago, they were drinking raw milk which contained lactase, making the whole thing a non-issue.
>white people evolved to drink it but it still causes horrible acne and other side effects
I really wonder where the frick is most of Ganker from.
The entire fricking world drinks milk. It is literally one of the most popular products worldwide everywhere, and used for a billion things.

African and Asian countries consume vastly less dairy than European and American countries
This is wrong. Europeans did evolve lactase persistence, which is the ability to digest milk into adulthood. But that evolution is the ability to digest milk due to an enzyme called lactase.
People with lactose intolerance don't have this enzyme, so when they drink milk it essentially rots and ferments inside of them, produces gas and other substances and this is what causes problems like pain, diarrhoea and vomiting. White people have the enzyme to break milk down, so it doesn't have the chance to rot/ferment inside of them and doesn't cause these problems.
This is making me want to play the older games to kill the time while until release date. Are they still worth playing? I'll be going for Viconia 100% btw

In fact, githyanki don't like to hear a lot of ugly things about their race, mostly because they're all true.

Man, I was actually interested in the exoticness of the froggirl, from all the way back in PS:T.
It's a damn shame she's written to cuck you by some overgrown twitter dweller.
Guess I'll have to kill her to free myself from temptation.
Is she unlikeable because she's been written by a cuck, or did Swen deliberately give the token shit character to the cuck so he wouldn't frick up the characters he expected people to like?
Wyll might have been boring, but he was cheerful enough and didn't rub me the wrong way, and Kagha is a villain deliberately trying to shit stir
The main issue with Wyll is that he's flawed in a way that is supposed to incite sympathy, but in reality his flaws just make him pathetic. It doesn't help that he's arrogant and has an obnoxious way of speaking. His base concept is interesting, but the implementation sucks ass.
Only if you want to check out the gameplay. Progress won't transfer over. It's better to wait until the release to play it.
If you're sure you're going to buy it and play it then it's probably a good idea to buy it now because you get upgraded to the deluxe edition for free which includes some digital goodies and 3 days of early access to the full act one.
So do I need to have said potential romance option in my party in order to romance them? Cause I'd much rather romance Shadowheart but would like to occasionally swap her out for a stronger party comp.
Clerics are quite strong tho. Strong buffs, guidance is very very nice to have, strong debufs and good damage/utility spells (Spirit Guardians for example).
And due to her background and dex score she can fill in the role of the party lockpicker quite nicely.
Out of all the characters in early access she's the one that I brought with me the most.
Yes. I am playing a Dark Urge Oath of Devotion Paladin and refusing to give into any of my urges + Ilithid powers, it will be ludokino of the highest degree
Well you can choose to give in or resist your violent impulses. If you resisted when it came to innocent people but let it out when dealing with someone who deserved to die it would be fine right?
>Well you can choose to give in or resist your violent impulses. If you resisted when it came to innocent people but let it out when dealing with someone who deserved to die it would be fine right?
For me, personally, I'd say that is correct but I would try to talk the evildoers down
t. Oath of Devotion Paladin at heart
Urges have skill checks for them and generally speaking, they will most likely be considered evil acts (which will nuke your paladin powers most likely) regardless. I can't stress enough how much dark urge is more unhinged than gordon's ward.
It sounds like a good concept.
Having manly tears constantly egging you on, and strategically letting it out so you don't get bottled up, sounds like a good formula. Especially when the trap options come up and you have to know when to smite and when to hold back
I wasn't there for that part because I moved to the Ganker thread, but when I was there it was completely unmoderated and the homosexuals were seething out of their gourds at the amount of people making fun of the wokeshit, we easily outnumbered them.
Yes.
That said dragonborn culture is like the polar opposite of drow culture.
Evil dragonborn are loathed exiles and most dragonborn are lawgays.
If you had a female dragonborn in the party and you started being the paladinist paladin that was ever a paladin she'd flop on her back and lock you in place with her dragon laduly muscles until your balls were completely drained inside her quivering dragon pussy/cloaca.
Whenever you try to limit saves in any game these days people flip their shit like crazy. Kingdom Come had a very reasonable save system and it was still the number one complaint about the game.

Dark Urge is only for the player. If you don't pick it, then it's not there. You can also make a custom character who iirc is just a normal adventurer.
Mindflayers are self impregnating hermaphrodites with a small handful of egg laying cycles to spawn more tadpoles.
They don't have sex and they don't engage in romance.
>I fricking hate this. Let me frick something actually weird, not a fricking bear.

ROLE PLAYING GAME moron
Bro the only board games I've played is shit like Sorry and Monopoly. Making shit up or roleplaying in those games is a good way to piss people off or weird them out.
The only games I play are of the video variety like all the cool kids do.
It's basically one (DM) who who lays out a plan for an epic fantasy adventure. The players create characters and there's a bunch of rules that go along with how the characters interact with the world. The players can go along with the DM's plan or go completely against it and force them to adapt.
As that anon said, your ideal partner is exclusive to Tav while every other origin character have dreams related to something else. Dark urge's "waifu" would be blood and murder.

Arranged marriages were mostly among upper class and people of wealth. For commoners it was all courting, dowries, and lower class the families just tried to get them to spend time together so the son would accept the daughter.

the poll in shambles
I made the two bottom options late into the poll due to request, but I don't think people can revote so everyone should have held their vote for their favourite girl 🙂
Shadowheart got BTFO by Karlach AND Minthara, that's hilarious.
STOP THE COUNT
Where's Mintharabros?

You love to see it
>barbarian tiefling is Ganker favorite
How did Swen do it.
Zevlor is planning to sacrifice all the Tieflings to his Devil master and is actually an Asmodeus cultist. It got fully datamined a while back, including all the voice lines of the Tieflings in shock that he's betraying them. You can also listen to his Speak With Dead Dialogue and get hints to it.

So there's dating mechanics??
Their whole PR revolves around the fact that you can bang most of the cast
Why would anyone play a half orc?
in bg2 they could start with 19 strength and con which was massive, they made great barbs or fighters. idk what their stats are like in 5e, i'm new to it. they are thematically fitting for a barb still though
>green
>mean
>tall
>alpha as frick
>culture revolves around strength
>terrify dwarflets and elfsissies through sheer machismo
Yup, I'm thinking they're based.
bg3 has the dumbest looking half orcs though
They're supposed to be ugly fricks.
yeah no not like that
like poorly modeled face, not intentionally ugly
>imploring my duergar with Enlarge won't stomp your orc in an arm wrestling contest
baragays dreams
I like playing big, strong, and menacing characters, so I'll play as either half-orc or dragonborn. But since everyone gets the big body now I might go with tiefling or some other races.
Outside of the MC, who is the strongest Bhaalspawn?
Threadly reminder Dark Urge is BHAALSPAWN
Good
redpill me on slayers
anime final form of a bhaalspawn
Is there any catch? Can I turn into this deathclaw homie and rip and tear bhaal himself?
That would be Ravager, which is the advanced Slayer form.
Lina Inverse is extremely OP.
What is the D&D equivalent of her favourite spell
From 2nd Edition Meteor Storm
4x large and 4x smaller meteors fall
>...The large spheres (2-foot diameter) inflict 10d4 points of damage, bursting in a diamond or box pattern. Each has a 30-foot diameter area of effect, and each sphere is 20 feet apart along the sides of the pattern, creating overlapping areas of effect and exposing the center to all four blasts. The smaller spheres (1-foot diameter) each have a 15-foot diameter area of effect, and each inflicts 5d4 points of damage. They burst in a pattern of a box within a diamond or vice versa, with each of the outer sides 20 feet long.
It's kind of like that, but instead of having damage spread out in multiple different diameter explosions, all of that damage and all of that range were added up together at once(without a save), so at least a 200ft diameter of all 70d4 damage. And this is 2e where health values were much lower. And then it's a comedy series so turn that up a couple of notches anyway
Lina is a miracle of the universe and I love her!
>Lina
For me, it's Marci
Hmmmm, that wand has an interesting shape
Isn't Dark Urge the "you are canon evil" path? But in BG1 you could choose to control your impulses and even convert your powers to good.
You can resist the urges in Dark Urge too.
>But in BG1 you could choose to control your impulses and even convert your powers to good.
That's too boring for Larian.
BG3 Bhaalspawn is an edgy school shooter that makes Sarevok look tame.
Dark urge is functionally acts the same way as BG1/2 protagonist. You also got nightmares of murder and bloodshed in that game but dark urge seem more unhinged. I chalk it up to literal fatherless behavior because gordon's ward had a ton of support.
guys literally only want one thing
What the frick did Tav say to Karlach to get her this mad?
What will her romance be like?
>I TOLD YOU NOT TO PULL OUT WE SAID 20 KIDS
wow another female character who's sole character trait is ANGRY, at least they were on the nose enough to make her an unga-bunga barb
>wow another female character who's sole character trait is ANGRY
I mean, wouldn't you be if someone gave you shit after escaping literal hell?
I said it made sense for her at least, being woman mad is probably a positive considering her loadout. Its just most female writing these days is just them being angry.
she's a cute genki girl who gets mad sometimes
Finally, a muscle woman I can get behind
I too want to be Son Goku
So in Act 2 you can potentially get mutilated beyond belief by Shaar cultists? Fuark. I bet it puts all the scar options on your character's body and face
>will we make ten kids?
Your move, Ganker.
I can't take her seriously with the moronic broken horn.
I can't wait to mentally break Karlach by being emotionally and physically abusive
I'll happily gut tiefling kids but that isn't something even I could do
>guys get a wholesome date with their excited and wholesome demon gf
>women get gay bear sex
what did larian mean by this?
Based Sven "Women Are Vile Creatures" Vincke.
He really did say that
Shadowcuties just woke up
>they're botting the poll
Is there no low they won't sink to to defame our girl Karlach?

Using ""canonical" names for your custom character in RPGs is gay as frick. Surely you have something resembling an imagination in you?
>Surely you have something resembling an imagination in you?
Yes! I have the perfect name for my character! My real name, of course.
Atta boy, Bobby.
I name all my characters yuri. ideally they have mind control powers too
>most profitable marketing schtick is that you can romance everyone
When did everyone become coomers or are they just so devoid of love that romancing is the most important thing in RPGs
>8 STR gay half-elf was destroyed by a bear with 19 STR
Seriously though, Half-Orc Barbarian is meta as frick right? AND it is a really cool rp build
Dante?
This game look like pure modern western degeneracy culture
Holy shit it's Norman Reedus!
I'm not going to date any of the characters. if they question my judgement or talk back to me even once I will kill them. simple as.
So can I get into this game if I don't know shit about D&D or the other Baldur's Gate games?
Never heard of the game until this bear thing started flooding the board, but I really liked Divinity OS and this is being made by the same guys. The screenshots I've seen so far make the game look sort of similar to Divinity.
>So can I get into this game if I don't know shit about D&D or the other Baldur's Gate games?
Yes and yes. It is going to be one of the best games of all time most likely, but I am extremely optimistic and want it to succeed.
>one of the best games of all time
calm yourself before you get bear jizz over your keyboard anon
If you liked DOS, BG3 will likely have the same sense of humor, but a different ruleset/world. They slapped the BG name on this for marketing purposes, so the older games will likely turn you off if you weren't playing them when they came out.
>They slapped the BG name on this for marketing purposes, so the older games will likely turn you off if you weren't playing them when they came out.
BG1 is plain bad. BG2 is as bad as KOTOR. BG3 is better in every way.
Bg3 seems better mechanically but also more gay writing-wise. Also I don't like most of the BG3 companions as much as the BG2 ones. Halsin is cool but them showing him in gay sex scenes makes me like him less. I hate playersexual shit. BG doesn't need sex scenes, especially not gay ones. I also don't think the OST is as good as ToB's OST.
You are really setting yourself up for disappointment mate
It's basically DOS3 dnd edition and that's a good thing
>that's a good thing
>5e
you can make your own party members and use them exclusively (but miss out on all the 'witty' larian banter)
>(but miss out on all the 'witty' larian banter)

Yes, that was the joke, anon.
>missing my joke
It's ok. I appreciate the initial response
>so what's the downside
you miss out on sidequests like gay sex with animals, or blood orgies, or cringe normie dates
I mean I did play bg1-2 with fully custom party too but seeing all the effort they put into their origin guys that seems like you would miss a lot of cool shit
I like making a fully custom party and imagining character interactions between the party members based on the backstories i made up for each of them.
Go play IWD2 then.
It's unbearlievable that this stupid fake outrage is actually getting people interested in this game
Clown world.
And it looks like Divinity because it's the same devs
Doomposters will never understand that there's no such thing as bad publicity
>unbearlievable that this stupid fake outrage is actually getting people interested in this game
>meanwhile Swen in his clinkity-clank summer armor, Ed Greenwood in his Advanced Sex Dungeons & Dragons, and all the people that hate Astarion
>It's unbearlievable that this stupid fake outrage is actually getting people interested in this game
The bear sex isn't why I'm interested in the game. I never had heard of it until the bear sex though, and what I found looked like a game I liked before made by the same people who made said game.
So if this is an advertising campaign, their marketers either did a good job or Ganker anons do it for free.
Teddie, run for your life from Ganker...
Teddie is already twisted, he's just good at hiding his power levels
Teddie? You mean same "the beast in heat" Teddie?
Teddie would totally let you hit it dressed as Alice
>And it looks like Divinity because it's the same devs
that's a good thing
it is Divinity with D&D paint, They tried to make it seem more tabletop by adding dice rolls and failing checks, but really it isn't anything to write home about
its Divinity.
>its Divinity.
Except for the D&D setting
And D&D combat
And D&D characters
And D&D story
And D&D classes
And D&D races
And D&D skills
And D&D spells
Oh geeze I guess it's not really like divinity at all, huh
wow that rustled your jimmies didn't it, its the Divinity engine with D&D paint, its going to be good. But if people go in thinking it plays like the other 2 Baldur's gates that isn't fair. it plays like DoS2
It's turnbased. That's it. It has a D&D ruleset, and plays only superficially similar to DOS2.
closer to Baldur's Gate 1/2 or Divinity?
Think Divinity but with none of the cool as frick spells and moves in Divinity.
they did have some pretty awesome spells in divinity, they did need to tone down the floor effects though. every fight turned into giant flaming blood pools or blessed water/poison swamps.
Closer to tabletop. Not as autismally accurate as solasta was, but it's more accurate than the original games were mechanically.
yes its 5e, literally made for new dnd players, just take a fighter till you get up to speed and have experimented with how it works
>yes its 5e,
Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition removed a lot of crunch and mechanics that could be considered barriers to entry for new players.
Compared to 3rd edition and 3.5 4th never happened frick you its nearly a different game, but a lot easier to explain to new players and get them to the table and enjoy it.
5E is simple to understand and literally made for idiots. You'll be fine.
The fact you never even HEARD about the series called Baldur's Gate is a giant redflag.
You're either a complete casual player who players mobile games, CSGO, LOL, Valorant, Roblox and other shit, or you're a newbie and a child to boot.
There's just no way an adult who isn't a newbie and/or not a casual gamer wouldn't even heard about the series.
He's talking about BG3, not the entire series moron
>He's talking about BG3
Learn to read, anon.
>I don't know shit about D&D or the other Baldur's Gate games
>the other Baldur's Gate games
Meaning he never played them, not that he never heard of them.
You're right. I assumed he also never heard about the whole series.
My bad, anon.
I'm glad you can admit that. Most anons here would double down.
Maybe he just assumed there were other games because there's a 3 after the name
reading compression man,
I'm
I've heard of BG before, but I've never touched either of the games and I didn't know it was getting a sequel.
Mostly play games from genres like Fighting, Rhythm, Platformer, JRPGs, TRPGs, etc so WRPGs are almost never on my radar. For example, if Ganker hadn't been talking so much about Diablo 4 I probably wouldn't have remembered it came out this year. The other BG games are just in that unknown mass to me that is WRPGs.
The only reason I played Divinity is because I was looking for another TRPG to play after finishing XCOM2 and it was the first thing Steam farted out as a recommendation. I am very uncultured when it comes to these type of games.
You need to be an annoying homosexual that combines 2 or 3 classes into 1 character to play these games

Why is she evil? I could fix her if she wasn't so goddamned evil. Not even just evil, but outrageously so. Not even a Paladin of Sarenrae could fix that.

is there anything more broken from a CRPG perspective than human warlock?

>eldritch blast can knock enemies off cliffs

>intimidation is there if you want to be an evil c**t
>also gain access to shit like animal speech and charm, making even more interactions and dialogue skill checks a breeze
the only thing thatd hinder this is Dark Urge but I have a feeling that Human Warlock with DU would be the go-to chaotic evil playthrough

How does it work
the shiling campaing for this game nobody gives a shit about is going hard
there are currently 32 shilling threads about this piece of hsit
there's this thread and 31 threads of schizos having a meltdown about bears
Where the dragon girls at?
Is this shit just a dating sim or is there a game attached to it?
I'm wondering the same.

It's not just anons being anons, this is all the devs talk about.

>2. Pet

Can you play as a white woman?
>shadeshifts to wolf
Why is it that panthfinder cucks you and has bestiality but nobody complains about it
because the Pathfinder games aren't all that popular in actuality outside of CRPG autists
No one gives a frick about PoE and Pathfinder, Larian single handedly revived CRPGs
Bestiality has been in RPGs since at least Arcanum, where you can frick a sheep in a brothel.
>cucks you
It doesn't, it still has a lot of schizos shitposting about it just like they do here though
>bestiality
There is zero bestiality, and if these is, it sure as hell doesn't involve any of the romance options
DOS2 has better widespread appeal because it's a multiplayer game with simplified character building and combat, and a very interactive overworld. It's significantly easier to get people to play DOS2 than it is to get them to play other CRPGs even if those games have multiplayer like Solasta and Wasteland 3 because they lack the shitpost factor of DOS2.
In D&D and it's derivaties, clerics can be of any god which includes evil ones like the series relevant Bhaal, lord of murder, or ones that encourage underhandedness so it's not weird.
So what exactly is the difference between the oath of devotion and the oath of Ancients? I get Devotion is basically your knight in shining armour but what makes Ancients so different?
The owlbear cub is going to eat him if you keep it around, isn't it?
Ancients is basically Paladin: Druid Edition
So it's just protecting nature as a paladin? Doesn't seem that interesting.
you also have to be fun and joyful and stuff
>The owlbear cub is going to eat him if you keep it around, isn't it?
The two of them become friends actually.
It's pretty cute.
Yeah but it's still an owlbear.
>Not romancing your tadpod
You will have your tulpa gf (mindflayer elder brain) sex I'm sure
>sex with tulpa
We call it masturbation in the real world.
more of a wet dream since you aren't conscious
That looks ridiculous, and not in a funny way.
Why are they wasting time on this shit in a fantasy RPG?
Because BG3 is a game made by and for coomers.
The game is new DAO but with 5e homosexualry.
>Why are they wasting time on this shit in a fantasy RPG?

You'll get your milk later.
>Eee, I'm so excited
Very cute
>drinking milk past infancy

keep feeding those dairy farmer lobbyists man.
Milk is for white people, just check lactose intolerancy maps. Statistically if you meet someone here who cant process milk, you're talking to a Tyrone, Yang or Jose
>Milk is for white people, just check lactose intolerancy maps
This is true. I chug it and I'm probably the whitest person ITT ask me anything
Why are you black?
>read up about lactose intolerance
>apparently white people evolved to drink it but it still causes horrible acne and other side effects
>they essentially drank it so much there body still is in pain but developed to ignore more of the major side effects like horrible stomach cramps

>my dad who had black hair from being like an eighth native american could drink milk like a horse but I can't despite having a pure white mom
Why is genetics such a fricking dice roll?
just reroll bro. respecs are cheap
Same thing with you hispanics but with beans
coca-cola is the proper comparison they drink so much coca-cola they cry-bully to White GODS about the diabeetus
This sounds like complete bullshit. Lactose intolerance just means your body lacks the lactase necessary to break down the lactose for disgestion, which is only an issue when drinking pasteurized milk because raw milk already contains lactase. White people obviously weren't pasteurizing their milk hundreds of years ago, they were drinking raw milk which contained lactase, making the whole thing a non-issue.
>white people evolved to drink it but it still causes horrible acne and other side effects
I really wonder where the frick is most of Ganker from.
The entire fricking world drinks milk. It is literally one of the most popular products worldwide everywhere, and used for a billion things.
This is not a white people thing, this is not a hispanic thing, this is not an asian thing. Everyone drinks milk.
But not everyone can
>85 in hueland
bullshit
We drink milk all the time. It's literally considered a "basic food", alongside beans and rice.
Considering your population, that still leaves millions and millions of people who dont have the intolerancy.
Not quoted anon, but everyone consumes dairy here. Our second most populous state is primarily known for being the cheese state, one of our most well-known snacks is basically a baked cheeseball, and we actually have more cows than people here despite having a population of 200+ million.
isn't Brazil mostly about beef rather than dairy
Yes, but dairy is also big here.
That doesn't change the fact that majority are lactose intolerant
just googled it and it's ~40% of the brazilian population. for comparison's sake, it's 33% in portugal and 36% in the usa
I googled and it was over 60% but we can choose the truth on what we prefer. Still, would have assumed that it was more for a non-white country like Brazil
>2010 census
kek. This is about coping right since you chose a an older map that suits your feelings the best. That's alright, not everyone needs to be white, it's only a skincolor
No it's not
Brazil is like 65%-70% European genetically, it's just so mixed no one ever notices it. Even natives in the middle of fricking nowhere in the Amazon have some Portuguese DNA somehow.
Feel free to identify as you please
African and Asian countries consume vastly less dairy than European and American countries
This is wrong. Europeans did evolve lactase persistence, which is the ability to digest milk into adulthood. But that evolution is the ability to digest milk due to an enzyme called lactase.
People with lactose intolerance don't have this enzyme, so when they drink milk it essentially rots and ferments inside of them, produces gas and other substances and this is what causes problems like pain, diarrhoea and vomiting. White people have the enzyme to break milk down, so it doesn't have the chance to rot/ferment inside of them and doesn't cause these problems.
i mean the chinese can't even tolerate it. most places don't even sell cheese
I wish I could process milk better to be honest.
enjoy your crumbling brittle bones homosexual
This is making me want to play the older games to kill the time while until release date. Are they still worth playing? I'll be going for Viconia 100% btw
>Are they still worth playing
How about you find it out yourself, you little shit?
Yes. Not all aspects of the game have aged gracefully but if you can manage that they're very good games.

Okay I like Kagha for her flaws
by being an unlikeable cuck
It's not the gay writer's fault the green Xena is ugly.
She has no redeeming qualities, not her looks, not her personality, nothing.
I think Lae'zel is pretty funny and she's kinda charming in an autistic way.
>githyanki
>charming
thats it, off the Nautilus frogposter
I don't care or know anything about her race. I just think SHE is funny and charming.
>watch a video about a bard making squirrels dance
>Lae'zel is the only one to approve
>Githyanki approving of the enslavement of the wills of other creatures they deem lesser than them, despite their whole culture existing to hate Mindflayers that did it to them first.
of course she did.
>from the wiki
In fact, githyanki don't like to hear a lot of ugly things about their race, mostly because they're all true. The first and foremost is that they're a bunch of hypocrites; obsessed with "being free" that they have become convinced their manifest destiny is to conquer & enslave every other race in the multiverse, and they hate religion but worship the Warrior-Queen.
Racist, hypocritical, slavers and believers in a false religion? are they humans or space frogs?
they were humans, Astral shit does weird stuff to a person.
If only we got an actual Xena companion.
Man, I was actually interested in the exoticness of the froggirl, from all the way back in PS:T.
It's a damn shame she's written to cuck you by some overgrown twitter dweller.
Guess I'll have to kill her to free myself from temptation.
To be fair after yesterday I think Karlach is now the most popular
>*gives you the old school romance everyone enjoys*
Enjoy
thank you
Is she unlikeable because she's been written by a cuck, or did Swen deliberately give the token shit character to the cuck so he wouldn't frick up the characters he expected people to like?
Wyll might have been boring, but he was cheerful enough and didn't rub me the wrong way, and Kagha is a villain deliberately trying to shit stir
Wyll was actually so unpopular they rewrote him completely so I don't think it was intentional on Swen's part
The main issue with Wyll is that he's flawed in a way that is supposed to incite sympathy, but in reality his flaws just make him pathetic. It doesn't help that he's arrogant and has an obnoxious way of speaking. His base concept is interesting, but the implementation sucks ass.
Wyll is just ugly and boring
>Wyll was so bad he got a completely rewritten.
lol, lmao.
She reminds me about Noi from Dorohedoro
Tall musclehead with a personality of a cute girl
why did wyll have to be a Black person... odds that we can kill him and keep mizora?

not really, you don't keep your save before July 31st. But you get the deluxe edition for the base price if you pre-order.
Only if you want to check out the gameplay. Progress won't transfer over. It's better to wait until the release to play it.
If you're sure you're going to buy it and play it then it's probably a good idea to buy it now because you get upgraded to the deluxe edition for free which includes some digital goodies and 3 days of early access to the full act one.
I'm more and more convinced that Dark Urge is not just a Bhaalspawn, but actually an amnesiac Bhaal himself.
that seems unlikely since you can be a Cleric of Bhaal, and there's a Bhaal cult as one of the major antagonists
That would be so idiotically moronic that I can totally see Larian going for it.
>That would be so idiotically moronic that
I want them to do it
it would be moron-kino
imagine how stupid the reveal would be
Doubt it since Bhaal is one of the 3 figures behind the absolute (the others being Myrkul and Bane).
Bane?
you know, everyone's favorite Korean otter
can we frick him?
It would be extremely painful.
Would give up my soul in a heartbeat
He's a big guy
>genitals

So do I need to have said potential romance option in my party in order to romance them? Cause I'd much rather romance Shadowheart but would like to occasionally swap her out for a stronger party comp.
She's a healer, she should be an auto-include in most optimized parties.
she's auto-include because of Guidance, not healing
You can swap her out form time to tie, yes.
Clerics are quite strong tho. Strong buffs, guidance is very very nice to have, strong debufs and good damage/utility spells (Spirit Guardians for example).
And due to her background and dex score she can fill in the role of the party lockpicker quite nicely.
Out of all the characters in early access she's the one that I brought with me the most.
everything about this game is so disgusting from the characters, story to the devs themselves.
>That hair
>That suit
A hideous orc!!
>still 150gb
I haven't played since January last year, is it better optimized I remember lagging hard and nearly melting my GPU
frens plz.
Wait for the release date before playing the game, optimization is the last thing devs do.
Would it be kino if I played a dark urge oath of vengeance paladin? Try to control my violent urges with innocents but slaughter evildoers violently?
Yes. I am playing a Dark Urge Oath of Devotion Paladin and refusing to give into any of my urges + Ilithid powers, it will be ludokino of the highest degree
Playing Paladin as dark urge is a one way trip to being an oathbreaker honestly.
Well you can choose to give in or resist your violent impulses. If you resisted when it came to innocent people but let it out when dealing with someone who deserved to die it would be fine right?
>Well you can choose to give in or resist your violent impulses. If you resisted when it came to innocent people but let it out when dealing with someone who deserved to die it would be fine right?
For me, personally, I'd say that is correct but I would try to talk the evildoers down
t. Oath of Devotion Paladin at heart
It depends on the oath. It would probably work best with Vengeance since that's just
>Frick that evil c**t, gut the bastard.
still gotta succeed the rolls
I think some of the urges have skill checks on them
I wonder how often you'll have to roll for them and how difficult of a skill check it would be.
Urges have skill checks for them and generally speaking, they will most likely be considered evil acts (which will nuke your paladin powers most likely) regardless. I can't stress enough how much dark urge is more unhinged than gordon's ward.
I don't know how hard it will be to resist the urges, but it sounds like one of the coolest ways of playing the game.
>3 hours of savescumming your rolls against the urges later
I was already save-scumming like a motherfricker anyway, my game, my rules.
You're a yellow bellied anti-roleplayer
I'm a self-inserting stud.
Before I say based, tell me your class and subclass.
>Paladin
>Vengeance
>Redeeming Shadowheart through PLAP correction
Gaming.
Yeah, I'm thinking based.
>8. [Oath of Devotion] *Recite the words of your oath.*
YOU SHOULDN'T RESIST YOUR INNER URGES
>Shadowheart to help with guidance
>paladin's high CHA and STR to help with corresponding rolls
Swen didn't pick any dialogue options related to resisting on the PFH, they all could be constant 16-19 after a while for all you know.
Isn't that just being Dexter basically?
>Isn't that just being Dexter basically?
Yes and it's kino. Oath of Vengeance Dark Urge Paladin morning routine
?t=4
I plan on Dark Urge Drow Paladin of Vengeance who clings to his Oath to fight the DARK URGEtm
It sounds like a good concept.
Having manly tears constantly egging you on, and strategically letting it out so you don't get bottled up, sounds like a good formula. Especially when the trap options come up and you have to know when to smite and when to hold back
holy shit that hair and suit hahahah are they making fun of todd howard?
This thread is weird, likeie hella fricking weird. I play DnD for the misery and the adventure
People dont want good RPG games, they want dating sims
raping Imoen for years was pretty datey
We won big this time, bros
>GAME OF THE YEAR FOR THE BEAR ALONE
I wonder what the reaction would be if it was a cat instead of a bear.
if it was a wolf you would have all those crazy women creaming their vile panties in their seats.
"a cat is fine too" all over the internet
You mean all over reddit
On Ganker yes, but I'm not sure about normalgays. Would the women cheering for the bear sex also cheer at a man fricking a cat?
I wasn't there for that part because I moved to the Ganker thread, but when I was there it was completely unmoderated and the homosexuals were seething out of their gourds at the amount of people making fun of the wokeshit, we easily outnumbered them.
Imagine reeling back from a passionate kiss with Shadowheart, and staring into her loving, emerald eyes...

is an archer/double hand-crossbow paladin viable?
Really though wtf is this game? It seems to get dumber and dumber the more they show.
THE DARK URGE OST
This is THE Dark Urge theme
Do Dragonborn romance other races in the DnD verse? That seems a bit strange to me since they're just big lizards
What's stopping them from doing it? I guess their dicks work as normal.
If they have genitalia and they're compatible with other races for sex then whatever.
So? Theyre not cowards like Bioware is.
I can imagine how fricked the animations will be already
Yes.
That said dragonborn culture is like the polar opposite of drow culture.
Evil dragonborn are loathed exiles and most dragonborn are lawgays.
If you had a female dragonborn in the party and you started being the paladinist paladin that was ever a paladin she'd flop on her back and lock you in place with her dragon laduly muscles until your balls were completely drained inside her quivering dragon pussy/cloaca.
i hate being alongside coombrains like this when i extoll about the virtues of karlachwifing
You're on Ganker.
You don't need to like being surrounded by coombrains but you do need to accept it as an inevitability.
I hope there are powers for defying the urges
There's surely some kind of benefit for both embracing the urge and fighting against it.
Its kinda weird to have your game based around rolling a dice and have easy instant access savescumming at the same time.
Whenever you try to limit saves in any game these days people flip their shit like crazy. Kingdom Come had a very reasonable save system and it was still the number one complaint about the game.
you can click the "ironman mode" at the start of the game.
I might, though I wish the game would give me some sort of bonus for doing so and not playing in pleb mode.
>tell the thief top open a lock
>roll 2
>inspiration reroll

>inspiration reroll

I hate RNG
I HATE RNG
I FRICKING HATE RNG
There's karmic dice for people like you.
>There's karmic dice
There is? Is it on early access yet? I want them
anything to mitigate RNG
It's on by default now, I think.
>tfw unlucky even with karmik dice on
lucklet bros... its over..
So dark urge is just going to be being a baalspawn right?
Obviously
You can even notice Slayer in the last trailer.
seems that way. The trailer shows slayer form.
Very likely, yeah.
I think it won't be spawn, but still related. Like a chosen or something
So we all unanimously agree that the sound design for the EA is epic, right? I'm talking the spells.
Actually, now that I'm thinking about it more, idk how a dark urge paladin can work considering the character by default already has a serial killer origin story and is a bhaalspawn with no support like the previous main character.

>"lol here's your elf mutt romance bro."
I fricking hate this. Let me frick something actually weird, not a fricking bear.
Can't you frick the dragonborn party member?
You could frick lizards in dos2
There is no dragonborn companion. Dark urge is a custom character they just used a dragonborn to represent them.
This. If you don't play as Dark Urge, he doesn't appear in the game at all.
oh. that's lame then.
Does that mean dark urge won't exist if you don't play as him? Weird.
Dark Urge is only for the player. If you don't pick it, then it's not there. You can also make a custom character who iirc is just a normal adventurer.
Lame
they should have given dark urge a basic form
and made it a cute dwarf girl
elf fricking is a staple of Baldur's Gate and fantasy in general.
good enough for tolkien, good enough for me, simple as.
Its a shame about the lack of dragonborn romance unless that's later in the game.
I'm actually disappointed we can't frick a Mindflayer. There's even a friendly one in the game.
Can you play as one?
No, if you turn into a illithid the game is over.
Assumably in the late game, yes
If it doesn't manifest in my camp it doesn't count
Who do you think the dreamfu is, if not a mind flayer?
So far
I guarantee it won't be on release. There's too few of us tentacle lovers.
I just want tentacles down my throat.
You dont even know if that thing is male or female.
And I don't care. I want its slimy tentacles all over my insides.
Are you going to pretend it's debatable and they're not sexless so you can keep replying to yourself like the gooner gay you are
Mindflayers are self impregnating hermaphrodites with a small handful of egg laying cycles to spawn more tadpoles.
They don't have sex and they don't engage in romance.
Meanwhile there is a Mindflayer who refuses to be a Mindlfayer aside from the look. He can easily shove his tentacles down my throat you homosexual.
>they don't engage in romance
They project rape hallucinogenic trips to unlucky adventurers. They learn all sorts of weird kinky stuff from Drow.
>I fricking hate this. Let me frick something actually weird, not a fricking bear.
I fricking hate you. The game already lets you turn into a giant spider put 2 and 2 together you whiny idiot.
>that's supposed to be a Blood War veteran
Planescape Torment and Mask of the Betrayer stand undefeated in terms of quality of party members.
>Mask of the Betrayer
I puke, thanks.
>I puke
i hope the combat will be fun...everything they showed was dating sim shit and gore. I want to kill dragons.
>Oath of Devotion Paladin OST
>yfw bard dark urge gets his own song when he purges manly tears
One of these days I'll find out what D&D is exactly.
I've seen my older brother play it with some friends, but it just looks like a board game where you make shit up as you go.
>he doesn't even know what players do in board games
kek
Bro the only board games I've played is shit like Sorry and Monopoly. Making shit up or roleplaying in those games is a good way to piss people off or weird them out.
The only games I play are of the video variety like all the cool kids do.
> but it just looks like a board game where you make shit up as you go.
ROLE PLAYING GAME moron
>it just looks like a board game where you make shit up as you go.
That's pretty much it
It's basically one (DM) who who lays out a plan for an epic fantasy adventure. The players create characters and there's a bunch of rules that go along with how the characters interact with the world. The players can go along with the DM's plan or go completely against it and force them to adapt.
no Sophia Lillis tiefling to marry means there is no romance worth pursuing
>it's political
Just have fun 🙂 You can do anything!
Journalists entirely ignored that because of the bear stuff, normally they would be livid over it.
I wonder if Dark Urge will be "canon" protagonist as opposed to normal
No, Dark Urge and Tav have obviously different storylines:
>Dark Urge is Bhaalspawn A.K.A CHARNAME #2
>Tav has the dream waifu/husbando arc, who is probably the manifestation of the Absolute
You really think there won't be any tadpole waifu dreams as dark urge? Don't ALL of your companions also get those dreams?
As that anon said, your ideal partner is exclusive to Tav while every other origin character have dreams related to something else. Dark urge's "waifu" would be blood and murder.
Love it none of those homosexual ass bg3 thread talk about the gameplay or the story...
Peak western game.
Can you solo murder everything and everyone including party members right out of the gate? No dialogue, only death and destruction.
Yes, Barbarianbro
Good, haven't touched D&D since 2nd edition so I'd imagine a magic immune Blackguard are no longer a thing, probably some boring gay shit now.
you can be an Evil Paladin now
yes
yeah, skip scripted cutscenes with stealth
Everything and everyone except Gale.
She looks like the hot demon lady from that new Guardian of the Galaxy game which is okay by me.
WHAT THE FRICK IS GOING ON
The discord trannies lost, again.
>degen shit made by furries and trannies
Did you even watched the stream?
I've followed the game long enough to know this is like the anti-troony game.
/misc/ advertising the game for free
What is Dave The Diver?
A game where you have sex with male sharks
is it out yet or are you guys shilling the game for free? What's with he obvious employees posting gifs and weird shit?
comes out in August.
Why is Larian world building so cringe?
I'm not the biggest WRPG player but of all the ones I've played, I've never seen a priestess/cleric being played straight, it's like they're always hiding something, which is the opposite of JRPGs where the priestess/cleric girls are one of the most common trope.
Why don't JRPGs play like Baldur's Gate 3? Why don't JRPGs have any roleplaying? Frick Japs and frick you they don't make RPGs.
class for this dark urge?
wait till they add the monk sublcass that uses weapons
there's viconia in bg2
she's not hiding anything
she's just an evil drow priestess of shar
there is a monk class on launch with 3 subclasses
Daily reminder you should keep Astarion in your party until you sell him the Vampire Hunter
It really is bioware 2.0 huh
this didn't need to be a webm
It needs sound I know, but the scene is hilarious
I meant if you're just showing the dialogue, you could've just taken a screenshot of the line because as it is I can't fricking read it
Stop phoneposting then
He was a snobby noble before turning to a vampire slave. His awkward movements are so hilarious. Keeping him in your party to treat him bad is peak kino.
What are these animations? Swaying like a homosexual in the wind while talking?
Jesus christ I am going to decapitate that homosexual first chance when I pirate this.
hes a slimy dude
They're the overexaggerated flourishes of an overly theatrical noble.
They clearly wanted to give him Tim Curry/Johnny Depp energy.
He has to come out as vampire first, otherwise he will just ice the poor lad right in the eye.
Also, given the last panel, it's not his master who put a reward on his head.
how much does he sell for?
>Astarion is the only openly racist character in the game, and the target is NotGyppos
>new Karlach design just dropped
it's fricking over

That's the old placeholder design. Nobody believes you.
I hate OoD paladins...
Warlockbros...
eldritch blast my dick and balls moron, frick your class
that's the old placeholder model moron
Quick reminder, we have a /bgg/ general now on /vg/
don't send these Ganker degenerates over there
I want a githyanki spelljamer pirate roguelike crpg.
Not another generic european medieval fantasy shit with cheesy annoying characters and gay romance simulator.
I am an incel and I play BG3 for the purpose of having someone to date and frick, dont care about race. I'm glad the devs took this route instead of making a boomer crpg
I can imagine this is what somebody once said about BG2
You act as if most of these people even played BG2.
>fapping to those pixels
>to those lines and dialog
>those character images
lol damn you guys had it bad
BG2 human female leather armor sprites is quite sexy.
I still mad you can't leave Aerie's child in a dumpster.
No more threads, Will.
I don't want to go to /vg/
Do I get the 3 day early access to the game if I bought the EA?
yes
You will never be a real sequel.
