Lorelet here, what changed regarding the general populace's perception of tieflings between BG2 and 3? Why are they not ostracized or hunted on sight like the infernal spawns they are?
>Why are they not ostracized or hunted on sight like the infernal spawns they are?
But they are? The whole camp of tiefling immigrants (they're all thieves btw) left Elturel because they were ostracized and hunted on sight after the city was fucked by devils.
Chill with the xenophobia. Some of them are talented bards.
The more I argued with them, the better I came to know their dialectic. First they counted on the stupidity of their adversary, and then, when there was no other way out, they themselves simply played stupid. If all this didn't help, they pretended not to understand, or, if challenged, they changed the subject in a hurry, quoted platitudes which, if you accepted them, they immediately related to entirely different matters, and then, if again attacked, gave ground and pretended not to know exactly what you were talking about. Whenever you tried to attack one of these apostles, your hand closed on a jelly-like slime which divided up and poured through your fingers, but in the next moment collected again. But if you really struck one of these fellows so telling a blow that, observed by the audience, he couldn't help but agree, and if you believed that this had taken you at least one step forward, your amazement was great the next day. The fiendling had not the slightest recollection of the day before, he rattled off his same old nonsense as though nothing at all had happened, and, if indignantly challenged, affected amazement; he couldn't remember a thing, except that he had proved the correctness of his assertions the previous day.
Sometimes I stood there thunderstruck.
I didn't know what to be more amazed at: the agility of their tongues or their virtuosity at lying.

Have they done/mentioned anything about optimization or filesize for the full release? (I last played more than a year ago, before bard and barbarian were release)
It may sound weird, but the major flaw this game has in my eyes is that... The graphics are too good. It's one of the most demanding titles I ever ran, but there's not much to justify this considering it's a top-down turn based RPG. Larian really is aiming for maximum AAA appeal but this shit is heavy on the CPU
Just as a reminder, according to datamines/leaks/reveals, here are the "regular" party members we'll be having: >Jaheira >Minsc >Karlach >Helia >Delina >Krydle >one more returning character from the old series
That doesn't really answer my nagging WHY?? question. Either she was depowered a fuckton or a half-elf grandma is the best our hero could find to accompany him in his grand quest.
They brought her back because fans complained that there weren't enough connections to the original BG saga.
As for the de-leveling, I don't like it either, but it was a problem in BG1 as well.
>Jaheira
I'm still not over this. Why'd they bring her back, she was epic level tier by the end of BG2, also would be like 160 now?
Character levels are never an indicator of their actual power within the story. In Baldur's Gate Khalid and Jaheira are supposed ot be experienced Harpers, and yet they're level 1.
Xzar, Montaron, and Edwin are experienced agents sent out by their organizations (the Zhentarim and Thay, respectively) and they're level 1.
Then you have even more hilarious examples in the Planescape setting, where some faction leaders are level 4, whilst the leader of the Dustmen is a level 20 Lich, along with additional unique powers, his own demi-plane, and a trove of powerful artifacts, who could wipe out most other factions by himself.
Even so, that's a continuity nightmare. I can accept a certain level of discrepancy between the narrative and the in-game level for balance purposes, not that a high ranking druid would still be stuck in a relatively low level adventure.

>Also, enough with the "I can fix her" tropes already, I am sick of those.
Come up with an original trope right now. You can't. Everything that could be written has already been written, there's nothing new under the sun or the eclipse of that sun. Tropes are not bad, only the execution of them can.
Sure, but what I would like is for Larian to use the trope other than "I can fix her". So far, all of the origin companions are the variation of this trope.
Where is the "princess classic" trope? Or "shy virgin trope"?
I don't really get what's everyone's upset about, but as for me I'm not happy my romance in BG2 is invalidated and uncanonized just so old names can come back. A cucking delayed by 20 years if you will.
Ur fault for hooking up with the girl who ditches her husband 30 seconds after his death
Everyone made fun of AerieCHADS, but here we are, our pure virgin babymaking sex canonized in the official sequel sponsored by Wizards themselves.
Feels good.
Larian really should've implemented the savestates, so that your choices from BG2 actually matter and nobody is annoyed with Larian retconning your happy endings.
But it's too much work, Larian is too busy implementing alternate pronouns and origin OCs that everybody hates so far.
Romance (and sex) sells, otherwise it wouldn't have been pushed at the forefront of EA. Kinda hypocritical to spite the romancefags when you're banking on them in the first place.
I'm amazed you're still at it after all these years, especially considering all the (You)s you're fishing are probably missing the point or at the very least stale at this point.

real talk? i was a dm for years before quitting tabletop. i truly was offended by that post, because telling your players that their characters are doing it wrong is garbage. then people were all like: it's just a joke, who cares? so i renamed somebody's pic "nowhitehumansallowed" and laughed at how they were unable to take that as a joke and it's even funnier now that there are people who live in these threads.
god's honest truth, except for maybe 3 posts on Ganker. is this that thing where you can't handle anonymous posting and start seeing patterns and projecting about other people being schizos? poor guy, just can't handle the internet.
i doubt swen wrote that, it's probably just some community manager writing the patch notes. it does indicate that there's a real problem with entitlement at Larian though, because nobody walked it back. they think they are owed something by the people who pay them to try their game. completely tone deaf and unprofessional.
There was no context. Larian put up a completely tone-deaf post, which Kotaku and the like immediately used in their culture war and instead of walking back on it, Swen just went "h-haha, it's a joke" as he always does whenever Larian fucks something up.

That's not really hypocritical. The black afro woman is the default female human (why that is, you might question but that's another topic) so it makes sense to use that placeholder in a trailer. It's not a contradiction to say that players as a whole were not experimenting enough with the wide range of character customization and in the next minute to also use the most bland, default model in a trailer since well, you can only have one model there. I guess they could have gone the route of showing a different player character model every other frame but that would have been more confusing than anything.

You mean the EA one? That one clearly put more focus on the origin characters than anything else.

It's the same fucking topic you disingenuous gay. Fucking shyster.
BG3 must be one of the few games that completely broke the brains of average Ganker & Ganker tard. I've never seen so much seething over a game that is going to be a massive success.
TLOU2 was also a massive success because Sony bought all the reviews, so I don't see how that's a sign of quality.
It's no secret that Larian have journalists in their pockets, with Kevin Van Ord leading the charge.
Now that Rogue Trader is looking like a streaming pile of shit (20 hours long, terrible story, terrible companions, rushed, etc) Owlmorons have all migrated to the BG3 threads. Just ignore them.
Your game is going to be shit, Owlmoron. They only started working on it a year ago and it's coming out late this year or early next year. 20 hours and it's over. It's a cheap cash-in on the Warhammer blip in popularity.

But that makes perfect sense in a prison setting. They were probably traded in as commodity.
So if I don't take the cunt with the mcguffin in the party the game shoves her down my throat anyways.
Fuck this character, truly an accomplishment to write someone so annoying.
A question to the Larian shill, do you have any feedback or opinion on how the characters have been received? Because it feels like lots of people are going to play with a full custom party. So much time and money spent in your shitty characters for nothing.
>A question to the Larian shill, do you have any feedback or opinion on how the characters have been received?
Not the Larian shill, but the companions were originally VERY poorly recieved, with EA players simply calling them too confrontational and unlikeable. Larian's response was to at first make fun of people being annoyed that the companions are so confrontational, then they said that those are only the "evil" companions and the "good" ones are coming along (sure, I believe that, Swen) and finally, they decided to arbitrarily change some approval flags around and call it a a day, so while they are still grating as fuck, they no longer disagree with EVERYTHING you do no matter what.
I can see Larian not putting custom party members into the game, just so that you use their precious origin characters they spent so much money on. They are petty like that.

You can make a custom party by making a multiplayer game, launching three more instances of the game, joining your own game, and then playing that save as single player from then on. I did it in EA and will do it at release. Same as BG/BG2/DOS2.

This is not a DivOS game, anon.
This is totally DOS 2.5 with home brewed 5th ed rules slapped on and some references to BG 1/2 thrown in. I don’t mean that in a bad way. I liked DOS2, I liked this game in EA and expect it will be fun, but it is what it is.
You have to be stupid evil in order to deal with those assholes in the first place. Why would a paladin of Helm or Eilistraee ever want Astarion on my side? Or the githyanki?
Other games give you buffs if you go lone wolf. Pathfinder, Divinity and PoE do anyway.

Both of you must be autists, because everything in her is repellent, voice tone varies betwen condescending to scolding, and the body language and facial expresions enforce those tones. The only time she seems to enjoy something is during the fetish dream of some writter when your character gets beaten during a masochistic ritual.
It's a remarkably well acted and animated character.
And it's repellent.
>Pretty much the only friendly person in the group.
Gale and Wyll are quite friendly. If you guys would stop waifufagging you'd get a chance to realize that.
Gale lacks charisma and his story is full OC donut steel nonsense. Plus even if you actively try to avoid it the game makes every conversation with him end up being homoerotic unless you just don't talk to him at all.
Wyll is held back by the fact that he's an ugly mutt. I don't care if you're going to make a black character, but if you are, you need to make a BLACK character. Wyll isn't that. He's some ugly, puffy eyed, pasty skinned amerimutt and that makes him absolutely repulsive. He looks like an overcooked Irishman and sounds like a suburban american "youth". I'd much rather have some giga bro, a darkie Sarevok or something.
Both of them are still preferable to the twinkpire or frog though, so I'll grant them that.
Halsin, Kagha, and Minthara would all unironically be preferable to any of the companion characters present in the EA. Hell even the Tiefling chick in the OP would be preferable.

>Gale lacks charisma
He's a nerd. Like a wizard is supposed to be. >He's some ugly, puffy eyed, pasty skinned amerimutt and that makes him absolutely repulsive.
We looking at the same character?
He's not puffy eyed or pasty skinned at all my dude. And he does not sound like a suburban american youth. He has English accent FFS.

Do you really think that guy actually played the game?
Gale is incapable of talking normally (perhaps they wanted to make their own Jan or something, probably not, but you know the result) and he comes off very neutral rather than friendly.
As for Wyll, he did seem to be a friendly goody two shoes but after he insisted on taking out the goblin camp because of the kids and then pulled "akshually I've got my own business here" I just kicked him out.
Oh, the Larian employee is back.
Honestly, I don't know is this guy is really a Larian employee or just some virgin seriously obsessed with SHADOWHEART.
If it's the latter, dude, play some other cRPGs, broaden your horizons, Shadowheart is not even a good enough waifu to defend her this religiously.
Is the shitposter who spends 24/7 policing crpg threads to screech about 'cucks' and 'shit waifus' telling ME to get a life? Ha!
Long hair Shadowheart...
>How about give us a companion that's actually nice, noble and friendly
But she is generally nice and friendly? Pretty much the only friendly person in the group.
Unless you all just told her to beat it at the ship which (probably?) makes her act unfriendly afterwards.
Don't bother with him. If a woman even blinks the wrong way at him he has a schizo episode
Since when do people care about what the default character looks like in an RPG with character creation?? This is probably the dumbest thing i've ever seen discussed in an RPG thread. Also fun fact, the actual first character you see on the character creation screen right now is a hot female blonde elf barbarian. It's like people in this thread don't play the game and get all their information from shitposting threads on Ganker.
>players go out of their way create a white male despite it not being the default >larian chimps out >IT WAS JUST A JOKE AND IT'S NOT ABOUT HIM BEING WHITE >larian continues to harp on it years later >WHY DO YOU KEEP BRINGING IT UP >mention that despite larian calling white male generic while the shills say "uhhh because he's human not because he's white okay???" larian's default is still a human, just black and female with an afro >WHO CARES WHAT THE DEFAULT IS LIKE
You fucking retards deflecting and pretending to miss the point every time. Or maybe you really are that retarded.
>please do memoryhole this already, thanks much
One professional company vs. a handful of shitposters. Larian still getting bodied to this day 'cause the internet never forgets.

It's just a reality that many vocal anti-gay politicians and the likes end up getting caught with gay porn in their web history or gay prostitutes, I didn't come up with this stereotype. Straight people don't make a huge deal out of gays existing in their vicinity so long as they're not shoving their gay pride down their throats. Your insistence on decrying the existence of gay homo queer gayry wherever you find it ironically calls your sexuality into question, yes.

It's not difficult to undestand if you have an IQ above 90. Every time some boomer grognard complains about romances they only complain about waifus. Only about men that are interested in women, or from another perspective only about female characters made to be appealing to men. On the other hand they completely ignore similar pandering or characters marketed towards homosexuals and women. That's just fine apparently. Who knew grognards were so gay?

>making things up
Are you still trying to deflect from Larian added a gay vampire romance to their own game? It' so noticeable how you ignore that point whenever it's brought up. It's your kryptonite.
I can find dozens one-sidedly complaining about heterosexual romance while conveniently ignoring the homosexual romance Larian chose to add. To dumb it down for you I can't see a single post where you shills complain about Larian writing that character. Even when it's negative about him being gay you separate it from the fact Larian wrote him. You simply refuse to link their culpability in his (extremely gay) content.
So, you actually can't? So you admit ur just making all this shit up in ur head? >Even when it's negative about him being gay you separate it from the fact Larian wrote him.

Also since you seem to purposefully be ignoring posts, I'll say it again. All the origin characters are player sexual. Astarion is only gay if you WANT him to be gay. You're bitching about a self made problem.

Fucking retarded gay.
Sequel to a very popular and loved crpg made by a developer whose last game was loved by a ton of people and hated passionately by others for various reasons.
The very first early access versions of the game looked and played very similar to OS2, giving rise to the myth that it's just an OS2 reskin. Despite 3 years of large changes, this myth persists because at a glance the games look similar. (Top down, 4 person party, colorful 3d graphics)
There's also the spam shitpost that's already been posted in this thread about the character customization, so I won't go into too great of detail about it. Suffice to say 4chantards got buttblasted over it.
And in general there's just a lot of misinformation and ignorance surrounding the game, leading people to make statements about things they know nothing about yet talk like they're experts. Typical Ganker type stuff.
>Suffice to say 4chantards got buttblasted over it.
it's funny how this is the cope you guys latch onto no matter how often it is explained. it's about telling players their characters aren't kosher, canary in the coal mine for not understanding rpgs. larian doesn't get character creation, they'd rather write characters.
real talk? i was a dm for years before quitting tabletop. i truly was offended by that post, because telling your players that their characters are doing it wrong is garbage. then people were all like: it's just a joke, who cares? so i renamed somebody's pic "nowhitehumansallowed" and laughed at how they were unable to take that as a joke and it's even funnier now that there are people who live in these threads.
i've been consistent since day one.

There's nothing wrong with telling your players they can do better. It encourages them to improve and try things they normally wouldn't have. Plus it improves the experience for everyone involved.

You're their DM, anon. They look to you for guidance in the setting and rules. And if I think a player has the ability to make something more than what they're showing me, I'm going to let them know, and I'll offer my advice in improving their character if they're a rookie. Throwing them in the deep end may work for some but it's a good way to chase potentially great players off.

i already established we are talking about characters that fit the setting here, because in a video game they can't not, since the selection is predetermined. advice is fine if sought, but let people play the character they want as long as it's reasonable, i'm not saying let the guy who wants to play a tinker driving a steampunk mech have his way. remember to keep this discussion within the context of a crpg.

And Larian aren't saying grrrrrr no more white Tavs. If they wanted that they'd remove the option to make one entirely.
During EA they have to extensively test all the combinations of character models, the animations that go with them, and what that does with the physics engine (like tiefling tails). The post was meant to get more variety in characters going so more varied data could be gathered so they could make more armor, animations, possible customization options, etc.

That's... going by the definition. If I average 1000 data points and the output is Tal the white human male, then the conclusion is not that most players choose to rp as an OC donut steel blue haired tiefling (female).

Anon, you do know that you only get the gay options if you choose the gay options? I've played the EA a few times and not once have I seen any of the gay stuff.
Playing as a female Astarian wanted to sleep with me.
Stop being a triggered homophobe. Don't play the game if it bothers you so much.
You are preordering the full game. You get the full game on release, you get to play 3 days early and you also get a free upgrade to the deluxe edition.
The EA is free, you get to play the game and test different builds etc. Don't want to do that? Wait until the game is released then buy it.
Larian actually listen to player feedback and have made loads of changes based on feedback from the EA already. The EA now is completley different to how it was when it first came out, they have made a shitload of changes, even did a graphics overhaul. All of this based on player feedback which has helped improve the game a lot, EA has been a big help for the game and making it better.
Without EA, all these changes and improvements wouldn't have happened for moths or even a year after the game fully released.
EA is not a bad thing when done right, Larian isn't some literally who that relaeses a game in EA and then never finishes it. They use EA the right way, to improve the game.
Lae'zel's line of thinking is ''cull the weak if they can't manage on their own'', if she thinks someone is weak she will bully them. That's why she tries to dom you or you can show her that you're strong and dom her instead.
>Lae'zel's line of thinking is ''cull the weak if they can't manage on their own''
Surely that line of thinking, while sensible in general, needn't be extended to a defenseless little girl
She's been raised as a githyanki. You could say that she is even a bit soft for your average gith but that could be explaines with her personal weakness and self doubt.
She's a stupid evil member of a stupid evil race, so this checks out. I guess the drow are too vanilla for Larian, so they went with the gith for memes and novelty.
Technically there are two possible links to as far as i remember. >drow have dealings with squids in the underdark >giths have dealings with squids while jumping from one realm to another
I am fine with either.
Lae'zel is a walking pile of insecurity. She leans extremely hard into the "ruthless warrior culture" crap because she's compensating for her own feelings of inadequacy.
I still reinstall some of my old favorite games while i wait for a new game that i like to come out. Lately there simply arent many game that cathc my eye. Right now there are like 4~5 games i am looking forward to. >Baldur's Gate 3 >Rogue Trader >Cyberpunk 2077:Phantom Liberty >Homeworld 3
The years 2022 and 2023 so far have been horrible years for gaming. Barely any new games worth playing so i just reinstall old games and keep playing the BG3 early access.
I tried, but it just feels too junky nowadays. I dunno if it just doesn't work properly on my system, and googling didn't bring a proper answer, but the controls (especially the wsad option) were very imprecise and jumpy.
I bought the game on GOG and then visited the GOG forums for tips on how to optimize the game for my new PC. Visit the GOG forums i personally find them very usefull when trying to run older games that i bought.
First
P.S. fingers crossed for even more fanart of the game once it is fully out!
Lorelet here, what changed regarding the general populace's perception of tieflings between BG2 and 3? Why are they not ostracized or hunted on sight like the infernal spawns they are?
because discirimination is now bad and entire universe got pozzed by writers.
PS wait till you learn about modern day drows
>Why are they not ostracized or hunted on sight like the infernal spawns they are?
But they are? The whole camp of tiefling immigrants (they're all thieves btw) left Elturel because they were ostracized and hunted on sight after the city was fucked by devils.
Chill with the xenophobia. Some of them are talented bards.
The more I argued with them, the better I came to know their dialectic. First they counted on the stupidity of their adversary, and then, when there was no other way out, they themselves simply played stupid. If all this didn't help, they pretended not to understand, or, if challenged, they changed the subject in a hurry, quoted platitudes which, if you accepted them, they immediately related to entirely different matters, and then, if again attacked, gave ground and pretended not to know exactly what you were talking about. Whenever you tried to attack one of these apostles, your hand closed on a jelly-like slime which divided up and poured through your fingers, but in the next moment collected again. But if you really struck one of these fellows so telling a blow that, observed by the audience, he couldn't help but agree, and if you believed that this had taken you at least one step forward, your amazement was great the next day. The fiendling had not the slightest recollection of the day before, he rattled off his same old nonsense as though nothing at all had happened, and, if indignantly challenged, affected amazement; he couldn't remember a thing, except that he had proved the correctness of his assertions the previous day.
Sometimes I stood there thunderstruck.
I didn't know what to be more amazed at: the agility of their tongues or their virtuosity at lying.
Gradually I began to hate them.

>You don't put ''edition'' on the OP. Redditors should lurk 2 year before posting.
And a twitterchud to boot, you're a living stereotype.
Have they done/mentioned anything about optimization or filesize for the full release? (I last played more than a year ago, before bard and barbarian were release)
It may sound weird, but the major flaw this game has in my eyes is that... The graphics are too good. It's one of the most demanding titles I ever ran, but there's not much to justify this considering it's a top-down turn based RPG. Larian really is aiming for maximum AAA appeal but this shit is heavy on the CPU
Runs fine on my PC.
Optimization is the last thing you do when making a game, 1.0 should be fine
No one gives a fuck
Technically optimizing modern games sometimes continues even after release.
Just as a reminder, according to datamines/leaks/reveals, here are the "regular" party members we'll be having:
>Jaheira
>Minsc
>Karlach
>Helia
>Delina
>Krydle
>one more returning character from the old series
Also both the leaker, and Swen to a degree, implied that party members can become antagonists and/or exclusive between one another.
>Jaheira
I'm still not over this. Why'd they bring her back, she was epic level tier by the end of BG2, also would be like 160 now?
>also would be like 160 now
she's a half-elf
also fills the granny niche that original Helia would have filled
That doesn't really answer my nagging WHY?? question. Either she was depowered a fuckton or a half-elf grandma is the best our hero could find to accompany him in his grand quest.
They brought her back because fans complained that there weren't enough connections to the original BG saga.
As for the de-leveling, I don't like it either, but it was a problem in BG1 as well.
Character levels are never an indicator of their actual power within the story. In Baldur's Gate Khalid and Jaheira are supposed ot be experienced Harpers, and yet they're level 1.
Xzar, Montaron, and Edwin are experienced agents sent out by their organizations (the Zhentarim and Thay, respectively) and they're level 1.
Then you have even more hilarious examples in the Planescape setting, where some faction leaders are level 4, whilst the leader of the Dustmen is a level 20 Lich, along with additional unique powers, his own demi-plane, and a trove of powerful artifacts, who could wipe out most other factions by himself.
Even so, that's a continuity nightmare. I can accept a certain level of discrepancy between the narrative and the in-game level for balance purposes, not that a high ranking druid would still be stuck in a relatively low level adventure.
Nobody cares about your opinion, dumb zoomer.
How does anything I said make me a zoomer exactly? If there's no semblance of congruence between how powerful a character should be and their in-game stats, what's the point of anything?
>Baldur's Gate Khalid and Jaheira are supposed ot be experienced Harpers
They are more experienced than YOU, and they are level 2-3 by the time you meet them. They are still relatively green as serious adventurers.
Is that why Gorion describes them as "old friends"?
"They've long been my friends and you can trust them"
In a same way Gandalf was a friend to Frodo since childhood. Jaheria herself isn't even 30 in BG1, ffs.
There are no leaks, the guy was a larping gay.
And yet he was right about Minsc and Jaheira. He was claiming they'd be party members months before the announcement.
What makes you think this is the same guy? I am almost 100% convinced that the guy giving us hot takes about Delina et al. was just a LARPer very cleverly using the knowledge we already know from other leaks to make himself sound legit.
You are on Ganker, everybody can say anything without a proof.
I know I shouldn't but ever since the Fallout 4 leak being 100% right I always give leaks the benefit of the doubt
Oh, it's easy, it's because the guy who posted the original leaks on RPG Codex was me.
If you don't believe me, here's the proof - "Auraculum", the nickname which posted the leaks, and "Joseph Stalin" are the same user. Ask the admins, they'll confirm it. I know it because both of those were my accounts.
Why the fuck are all the women except Delina fucking evil cunts? Why is the ONE good woman in this game non-romanceable? Fucking Larian gayry.
I, the leaker and Larian employee, personally want to say I hate you, consider you an utter gay and retard, a romancefag and a coomer. Fuck off, and get a tripcode.
Nah, just wait till the release, it's a few months down the line.

>[shilling intensifies]
Everyone knew that, it's been in the files since 2020. There are youtube vids about the Minsc tag.
Sure, but nothing about Jaheira, especially since she's old enough to be actually dead from natural causes.
Reminder if the leaker IS right then Delina THE ONLY FUCKING GOOD FEMALE is non-romanceable because MUH COMIC CANON gayry. The ONE fucking woman that isn't a total CUNT is arbitrarily off-limits. Garbage.
Apparently, only the Origin characters will be romanceable.
You don't like them?
Well, fuck you.
Only fags and cucks like them. The kind of loser that wants to be a bitch that gets stepped on. Like that Valerie cuck from the Kingmaker threads LMAO.
>BG1/2 threads are chill with everybody having fun and getting along

Larian, explain this.
Shit waifus
Whats wrong with Shadowheart? she seemed cute to me when i did her little romance and kissed her
She's a bitchy entitled Sharran with a dumb name.
Also, enough with the "I can fix her" tropes already, I am sick of those.
no woman can beat the dick
ive seen bitches become submissive trad-girlfriends to men that dicked them down good enough
>Also, enough with the "I can fix her" tropes already, I am sick of those.
Come up with an original trope right now. You can't. Everything that could be written has already been written, there's nothing new under the sun or the eclipse of that sun. Tropes are not bad, only the execution of them can.
Sure, but what I would like is for Larian to use the trope other than "I can fix her". So far, all of the origin companions are the variation of this trope.
Where is the "princess classic" trope? Or "shy virgin trope"?
I don't really get what's everyone's upset about, but as for me I'm not happy my romance in BG2 is invalidated and uncanonized just so old names can come back. A cucking delayed by 20 years if you will.
Ur fault for hooking up with the girl who ditches her husband 30 seconds after his death
Everyone made fun of AerieCHADS, but here we are, our pure virgin babymaking sex canonized in the official sequel sponsored by Wizards themselves.
Feels good.
Isn't Viconia coming back as well? If that's true, that invalidates BG2's romance resolution of her dying.
Larian really should've implemented the savestates, so that your choices from BG2 actually matter and nobody is annoyed with Larian retconning your happy endings.
But it's too much work, Larian is too busy implementing alternate pronouns and origin OCs that everybody hates so far.
>so that your choices from BG2 actually matter
Whizzards of the Coast retconned all that thrice over already, you know.
Literally a single schizophrenic who haunts every single thread and shits it up.
It's some schizo from Ganker who is here just to shit up the thread.
Romancefags should be purged tbqh.

Romance (and sex) sells, otherwise it wouldn't have been pushed at the forefront of EA. Kinda hypocritical to spite the romancefags when you're banking on them in the first place.
great thread. very organic.
I'm amazed you're still at it after all these years, especially considering all the (You)s you're fishing are probably missing the point or at the very least stale at this point.

>just because larian brings it up over and over again doesn't mean larian brings it up over and over again
?
>3 times vs 300 times
Hmm....
Even if that's the case, what's the point of reposting the same thing everyone has seen 300 times by now? Is it just the pleasure of derailing a thread that motivates you?
>derailing a thread
as my daddy used to say: "it takes two to tango"
Right, instigates conflict, then absolves himself of all responsibility. Reminds me a certain bitchy orange-haired druid...
>absolves himself of all responsibility
so you don't understand that idiom?
If you were ignored, would you really just take the hint, or samefag/repost it a few hours later and hundreds of times over the years? In which case, are you not the sole culprit of this situation?
it wouldn't be a derail if it was ignored, right? so it wouldn't be an issue. unless... it isn't the derail that bothers you, but the joke itself.
It's Larian being criticized in any way.
You would just samefag and derail the thread regardless. Do you deny it? Searching the image hash you've been doing this for 2 years at least.

>Innocent bystanders may now resume the posting of Shadowheart nudes and whatnot.
The Shadowheart nude mods have more to do with the game than all the shitposting from the schizos put together. I personally am waiting for mods that make her boobs bigger. Nudity is already in the game even without the mods.
P.S. would like some Kagha(the shadow druid in the grove) nude mods too.
Get a trip code.
Did you reply to the wrong post? I don't remember anyone else ever mentioning Kagha in a thread. So you're either a retard or a schizo.
If she was more stacked, she wouldn't have a subconscious reason to be this much of a bitch. Chestlets are always angry at the world
This is true. Women with bigger tits are happier and less bitter.
indeed
Isn't there some better use of your time? Whether you actively hurt the image of the game or shill for it non-stop, you're not going to make a dent in the success or lack thereof of the game. You're just being a nuisance to 0.001% of potential buyers.

Which shitposter?
Mainly this one
Ganker is the only board i post on though.
Sure thing kid
god's honest truth, except for maybe 3 posts on Ganker. is this that thing where you can't handle anonymous posting and start seeing patterns and projecting about other people being schizos? poor guy, just can't handle the internet.
How is this a shitpost if he is quoting Swen himself?
i doubt swen wrote that, it's probably just some community manager writing the patch notes. it does indicate that there's a real problem with entitlement at Larian though, because nobody walked it back. they think they are owed something by the people who pay them to try their game. completely tone deaf and unprofessional.
Because you triggered chuds spam it non stop and take it completely out of context so you can shitpost about your 4chan shit.
the filename is a joke, anon. can't you handle a joke? let go of the 4chan bogeyman.
There was no context. Larian put up a completely tone-deaf post, which Kotaku and the like immediately used in their culture war and instead of walking back on it, Swen just went "h-haha, it's a joke" as he always does whenever Larian fucks something up.
It was a joke, it wasn't about being white or male.
It was about people no using different races and classes experimenting with different builds.
You chuds felt personally attacked for being the 4chan shitters you are and have been seething about ever since.
yes, it was about telling players paying full price for an early access game that they were "playing it wrong" while citing an amalgamation of player choice as being generic and unimaginative. completely tone deaf to the genre in which they make games. larian doesn't understand character creation or rpgs.
God you are dumb.
>gets shut down
>u dum
i accept your concession.
It was a joke. You got triggered because you felt personally attacked by it and you have been seething ever since about it.
You took it completely out of context.
Cope.
making a joke about people creating the wrong kind of characters is tone deaf when you are making a d&d game. this is extremely bad manners in rpg circles, especially from the person running the game. as an outsider and a company that doesn't really get rpgs, larian probably will never understand why this joke was in poor taste.
chud detected
Yes, because Swen was born yesterday, and he had no clue that framing the post in this particular way will make people interpret it exactly as they are interpreting it now.
You can keep telling that bullshit to you hugbox friends at twitter, anon.
But I guess that's Larian being consistent in putting up unfunny jokes that nobody understands. They've been doing that since Divine Divinity.
Also... chuds? Do you dye your hair pink and support BLM as well? Nobody sane uses that term unironically.
IT. WAS. A. Joke.
It. Wasn't. Funny.
It. Was. A. Dumb. Joke. That's. Why. People. Are. Giving. Larian. Shit. For. It.
They are giving Larian shit for it because they are triggered chuds who feel personally attacked.
The only person triggered in this thread is you, so far. Now I believe you are a Larian employee, because nobody would defend a company this fanatically on an anonymous basket weaving forum for free.
Screw you, that was a funny joke.
I guess I don't understand Belgian humour.
>it wasn't about being white or male
This isn't entirely true though. They would never have made that joke if the statistics showed a black person or female. They felt safe making the joke because it was aimed at the generic brown haired male character that hipsters make fun of.
Keep in mind that Larian's "answer" to the criticism was to showcase the most generic looking black female with the most black afro ever as their trailer OC. Yeah, holy shit, what an original character, I've NEVER seen that one before.
Do as I say, now as I do?
>Do as I say, now as I do?
That's not really hypocritical. The black afro woman is the default female human (why that is, you might question but that's another topic) so it makes sense to use that placeholder in a trailer. It's not a contradiction to say that players as a whole were not experimenting enough with the wide range of character customization and in the next minute to also use the most bland, default model in a trailer since well, you can only have one model there. I guess they could have gone the route of showing a different player character model every other frame but that would have been more confusing than anything.
morons are ugly though
You are entitled to this gentleman opinion, good sir.
>I guess they could have gone the route of showing a different player character model every other frame
That's actually what they did in previous trailers.
You mean the EA one? That one clearly put more focus on the origin characters than anything else. To me the decision to only keep one model for the entirety of a trailer is purely a marketing-based decision, to you it may be pushing an agenda or a dig at Cis White Human Male Fighter Tal players, but either way we're both arriving at the same conclusion through different paths.
>players as a whole were not experimenting enough
but if they were choosing a human that isn't default, how were they not experimenting with customization?
Because they arrived at what would be the default human model in most other even non-fantasy games, Timmy.
that still doesn't mean they weren't experimenting with the character creator, sport. it's obviously not about the process then, is it? it's about the results.
Let me guess, when you're feeling adventurous you might order something else but a plain cheese pizza or a cheeseburger. Some of your favorite movies include Transformers or The Avengers. You have a favorite football team and the Superb Owl is the biggest event of the year. And most importantly, you're perfectly content and secure in your tastes and centers of interest.
lol, i can see you, but you can't see me.
i cook all my meals. i don't watch movies or shows. sportsball of any kind isn't my thing. yes, i'm completely secure in my tastes. i just really, and i mean really, despise mealy-mouthed little hipster gays who think they are superior for their tastes and not for their abilities, especially when that taste is simply another kind of fad they latched onto like a security blanket.
but hey, i'm glad you implicitly admitted it was all about the results and your attempts to rationalize it are merely a smokescreen for resentment towards those you unjustifiably consider your inferiors.
>yes, i'm completely secure in my tastes.
Oh it shows.
i accept your concession, sport.
>That's not really hypocritical. The black afro woman is the default female human (why that is, you might question but that's another topic)
It's the same fucking topic you disingenuous gay. Fucking shyster.
BG3 must be one of the few games that completely broke the brains of average Ganker & Ganker tard. I've never seen so much seething over a game that is going to be a massive success.
TLOU2 was also a massive success because Sony bought all the reviews, so I don't see how that's a sign of quality.
It's no secret that Larian have journalists in their pockets, with Kevin Van Ord leading the charge.
you are really concerned with people and not ideas, aren't you? you won't get this, but you are basically a human ping-pong ball.
Now that Rogue Trader is looking like a streaming pile of shit (20 hours long, terrible story, terrible companions, rushed, etc) Owlmorons have all migrated to the BG3 threads. Just ignore them.
The fuck are you on about?
Do you know something about Rogue Trader that we don't, Larian shill, or are you just inventing your own reality?
See what I mean? They just camp out here now.
Your game is going to be shit, Owlmoron. They only started working on it a year ago and it's coming out late this year or early next year. 20 hours and it's over. It's a cheap cash-in on the Warhammer blip in popularity.
You're the one bringing up Rogue Trader out of nowhere.
>20 hours long
Seriously?
No, he's just shitposting. Alpha alone is 30 hours long and that's just one chapter.
I'm not shitposting at all. If you can get 30 hours out of the Alpha then you are the most autistic person imaginable.
There will be a short prolog, the alpha content, then the finale at Alushnera I mean the Dark Elf city.
Well i've seen many people saying that the alpha is 30hrs and only you saying the full game is only 20hrs.
I believe the people who have actually played the alpha.
Ganker is completely mind broken over ToTK and BG3
Fun fact. I like Dofus, Wakfu and Bladur's Gate 3. I wish i had the time to play MMOs like i did back in the day.
Based European fantasy coomer
BG3 is just the next in that line
With those awful waifus? Nah.
Where is my sweet elf waifu?
right here, anon!
1) that's a half-elven mutt
2) that's a Sharran
3) that's a snarky cunt
Three strikes, she's out.
1) you're a gay
2) you're a virgin
3) you're a shitposter
Three strikes, you're out
just a schizo shitposter
if you had actually played the game you would know that Shadowheart is actually pretty good, and not at all like how ur schizo imagination sees her as
too lazy to find a pic of her...
ughhh fuck I can't wait to inseminate Shadowheart while playing Wyll as my MC 🙂
I dunno why but i was never able to play warlocks. Even in Neverwinter Nights 2 the playstyle felt strange to me. I'll try playing Astarion since i actually like the rogue gameplay in BG3.
>willingly playing as a prancing la-la homo man
From what i understand you don't have to play as a homo.
Don't come crying once you find yourself wearing rogue socks one day.
Astarion didn't get that memo.
Are anti-coomers even fantasy fans? Honestly, what is fantasy without it's scantily-clad babes? Some Netflix dogshit, really.
>pic related: official art
And then you realize there are no women in the entire game, unless you count the pic related three whores who are kept under the lock and key by a local warlord anyway.
This is why you must never take fanservice out of media. It's the only thing keeping gamers in check from becoming barbaric despoilers. Piranha Bytes was so ahead of their time, they unwittingly made a critique of future society.
The state enforced girlfriends program can't come soon enough...
>unless you count the pic related three whores who are kept under the lock and key by a local warlord anyway.
But that makes perfect sense in a prison setting. They were probably traded in as commodity.
I was always more into to the dwarf princess myself.
So if I don't take the cunt with the mcguffin in the party the game shoves her down my throat anyways.
Fuck this character, truly an accomplishment to write someone so annoying.
A question to the Larian shill, do you have any feedback or opinion on how the characters have been received? Because it feels like lots of people are going to play with a full custom party. So much time and money spent in your shitty characters for nothing.
>A question to the Larian shill, do you have any feedback or opinion on how the characters have been received?
Not the Larian shill, but the companions were originally VERY poorly recieved, with EA players simply calling them too confrontational and unlikeable. Larian's response was to at first make fun of people being annoyed that the companions are so confrontational, then they said that those are only the "evil" companions and the "good" ones are coming along (sure, I believe that, Swen) and finally, they decided to arbitrarily change some approval flags around and call it a a day, so while they are still grating as fuck, they no longer disagree with EVERYTHING you do no matter what.
You can literally murder her and take the mcguffin.
You know you can just kill her right?
Just axed her, If I ever play again from the start she's not leaving the crash site alive.
>he doesn't push Lae'Zel into the River Styx
>he doesn't off Shadowheart in her pod
Total origin character death.
I can see Larian not putting custom party members into the game, just so that you use their precious origin characters they spent so much money on. They are petty like that.
You can make a custom party by making a multiplayer game, launching three more instances of the game, joining your own game, and then playing that save as single player from then on. I did it in EA and will do it at release. Same as BG/BG2/DOS2.
This is totally DOS 2.5 with home brewed 5th ed rules slapped on and some references to BG 1/2 thrown in. I don’t mean that in a bad way. I liked DOS2, I liked this game in EA and expect it will be fun, but it is what it is.
You can just leave them at the camp you know. There is no need to kill my wives.
Yes, there is no need, but it's fun. The bitches deserve it.
>>he doesn't off Shadowheart in her pod
How do you do that?
Caustic bulb.
That's gay and cringe. You're totally missing the point of roleplaying unless you're roleplaying chaotic stupid AKA chaotic evil.
It is the absolute state of self inserters.
You have to be stupid evil in order to deal with those assholes in the first place. Why would a paladin of Helm or Eilistraee ever want Astarion on my side? Or the githyanki?
>Everyone is the Larian shilll!!!
What did I wake up to?
Just another day on Ganker
Do you get any buffs if you go lone wolf?
Want to try a lone wolf playthrough but if you don't get buffs to balance it out I'm not going to bother.
No, but why would you?
Other games give you buffs if you go lone wolf. Pathfinder, Divinity and PoE do anyway.
I know I've played it about 3 times. Was just wondering if it is worth doing a lone wolf playthrough. Might just do a playthrough with a class I haven't tried yet.
>lone wolf
This is not a DivOS game, anon.
heh
Purge self inserters.
Purge romance fags.
>play early EA, Shadowheart is grumpy and the only decent companion
>play final EA, Shadowheart is barely grumpy at all anymore and still the only decent companion
>people still call her a bitch for some reason and want to kill her right off the bat
???
Being "the least shit" still makes her shit.
How about give us a companion that's actually nice, noble and friendly? Why do you think people latched onto Imoen so much? Or Minsc, as much of a meme he is nowadays? Or even Leliana or Tali? I don't think it's rocket science that people want likeable, non-grumpy companions, so I don't understand why Larian has such a big problem understanding that.
>How about give us a companion that's actually nice, noble and friendly
But she is generally nice and friendly? Pretty much the only friendly person in the group.
Unless you all just told her to beat it at the ship which (probably?) makes her act unfriendly afterwards.
>But she is generally nice and friendly?
You haven't met a nice person in your life though.
Both of you must be autists, because everything in her is repellent, voice tone varies betwen condescending to scolding, and the body language and facial expresions enforce those tones. The only time she seems to enjoy something is during the fetish dream of some writter when your character gets beaten during a masochistic ritual.
It's a remarkably well acted and animated character.
And it's repellent.
....I think ur the autist anon. Stop trying to play the armchair psychologist lmao
>Pretty much the only friendly person in the group.
Gale and Wyll are quite friendly. If you guys would stop waifufagging you'd get a chance to realize that.
I remember that he was quite alright personality wise, but his "quirk" kinda sucks.
Yeah but I have the feeling it's leading up to something big.
I just throw stuff I'm not using at him.
Gale lacks charisma and his story is full OC donut steel nonsense. Plus even if you actively try to avoid it the game makes every conversation with him end up being homoerotic unless you just don't talk to him at all.
Wyll is held back by the fact that he's an ugly mutt. I don't care if you're going to make a black character, but if you are, you need to make a BLACK character. Wyll isn't that. He's some ugly, puffy eyed, pasty skinned amerimutt and that makes him absolutely repulsive. He looks like an overcooked Irishman and sounds like a suburban american "youth". I'd much rather have some giga bro, a darkie Sarevok or something.
Both of them are still preferable to the twinkpire or frog though, so I'll grant them that.
Halsin, Kagha, and Minthara would all unironically be preferable to any of the companion characters present in the EA. Hell even the Tiefling chick in the OP would be preferable.
>Plus even if you actively try to avoid it the game makes every conversation with him end up being homoerotic unless you just don't talk to him at all.
This you?
I don't understand why people pretend this was real, instead of the most blatantly obvious larian shill false flag ever done.
Yeah I'm hoping we get Halsin or Minthara as companions, because the OCs are pretty lackluster.
>Gale lacks charisma
He's a nerd. Like a wizard is supposed to be.
>He's some ugly, puffy eyed, pasty skinned amerimutt and that makes him absolutely repulsive.
We looking at the same character?
He's not puffy eyed or pasty skinned at all my dude. And he does not sound like a suburban american youth. He has English accent FFS.
Do you really think that guy actually played the game?
Gale is incapable of talking normally (perhaps they wanted to make their own Jan or something, probably not, but you know the result) and he comes off very neutral rather than friendly.
As for Wyll, he did seem to be a friendly goody two shoes but after he insisted on taking out the goblin camp because of the kids and then pulled "akshually I've got my own business here" I just kicked him out.
Oh, the Larian employee is back.
Honestly, I don't know is this guy is really a Larian employee or just some virgin seriously obsessed with SHADOWHEART.
If it's the latter, dude, play some other cRPGs, broaden your horizons, Shadowheart is not even a good enough waifu to defend her this religiously.
Post rare Shadowcutes

I'll do it once i finish setting up my new PC.
Since when do people care about what the default character looks like in an RPG with character creation?? This is probably the dumbest thing i've ever seen discussed in an RPG thread. Also fun fact, the actual first character you see on the character creation screen right now is a hot female blonde elf barbarian. It's like people in this thread don't play the game and get all their information from shitposting threads on Ganker.
Thinking about it now again, a barbarian elf sounds like a hilarious joke.
I'm pretty sure that there are wood elf barbarians if some deep forests.
Yes, they are. They are call wild elves. I would give a lore dump about them, but this thread doesn't deserve it.
>players go out of their way create a white male despite it not being the default

One professional company vs. a handful of shitposters. Larian still getting bodied to this day 'cause the internet never forgets.

What argument, with who? I'm explaining reality to you. You act like there's a limit on the number of times a subject can be brought up or that you can shame or cajole people into memory holing it. The internet never forgets. It's never going away. Deal with it.
Ok, just don't be suprised when people think ur a schizo for spamming 3 years and counting
Yeah, obviously I don't care what you people think. I and anyone else will bring it up whenever we feel like it. Give it up and accept it, because you have zero power over this.
We have long accepted that you're a spamming schizo, yes.
Ur the only one doing it btw
cry moar
Get a tripcode schizo.
>seething this hard about a dad joke blog post
This thread is incredibly embarrassing, if actual waifu schizos are the average audience for this game it does not bode well at all. Coomers get the bullet

I concur. Not nearly enough Shadowheart or Bae'zel posted. What happened, did everyone's cock fall off?
>whines about muh waifu schizos
>but gays and fujos that suck homo vampire cock are based
Dumb fucking shill gay. Constantly bitching about muh coomers but only if they're into women. Every fucking time giving the gay romance THAT LARIAN THEMSELVES ADDED AND MARKETED a pass. Fucking gay retard.
>complains about muh coomers if they're straight males
>conveniently ignore larian pandering to women and gays with gay gay vampire romance

Fucking gay hypocrite.
>literally making shit up to get mad at in his head
TOUCH GRASS
Heads up, everyone hates Astarion and gayry itt, its just that ur mental illness is so cancerous and thread ruining that its more relevant to complain about that. I mean, you don't see Astarion fans shitposting at the level you do. In fact, I don't even think they post here.
>Heads up, everyone hates Astarion and gayry itt
Convenient how you never mention that and in fact even praise Larian for "not pandering to coomers" while they are literally pandering to coomer gays. But you'd praise them for that too wouldn't you, shill?
>its more relevant to complain about that
LOL you complain about heterosexuality... out of REVENGE! Heterosexuality turned you gay. Is that your backstory?
Holy shit the amount of projection in this post.
Maybe you really are

>schizo thinks he's talking to one person

At first the shills were like

But then they were like

Also, the post just mentions romances in general you turd, it doesn't specify straight or homosexual. You're really freaking out just because you want to.
>So your problem is there's gay romance at all? Does gay people existing trigger you so badly that you really had to go on this temper tantrum?

How did some gay cocksucking gay come up with some of the most realistic and heartwarming straight romances in RPGs to date?
By having human emotions just like everybody else? They're not another species, anon.
That was not what I was implying, but you typically write about what you know. Gaider the fag had some surprisingly realistic insight into women.
Probably because he spent a lot of time around them, and they probably opened up to him.
aerie and viconia aren't very heartwarming.
How so?
aerie is a broken tard who can cuck you viconia is bitch who gets offed in her romantic epilogue.
That doesn't mean they're not very heartwarming romances.
Yeah dude. Ed Greenwood, that name that might not be familiar to you but who is the creator of Forgotten Realms has been very open about it. There's gays in Faerun. And bisexuals. And even... elves.

Maybe you would be better off playing a different genre, anon.
Your defence of gayry is gayry. gay.
That's nice anon. I think Call of Duty would be a better fit for you.
It's okay to be a gay. I probably won't keep you in my party, but huh, it's okay for you to exist. Plenty of you around Faerun. No more special than tiefling these days.
Says the UHHH GAYS ARE HECKIN VALID OKAY??? gay. Fucking retard.
Yes! You no longer have to be ashamed of who you are, brother. Old Eddy never wanted you to feel excluded and I don't either. It's o-k-a-y to be g-a-y.
Ed Greenwood also self inserted himself as the most powerful NPC in the entire fucking setting.
If you're going to ascribe random labels to me, will you accept being labeled as a gay in denial?
catchy, I'm gonna start calling him that
It's not difficult to undestand if you have an IQ above 90. Every time some boomer grognard complains about romances they only complain about waifus. Only about men that are interested in women, or from another perspective only about female characters made to be appealing to men. On the other hand they completely ignore similar pandering or characters marketed towards homosexuals and women. That's just fine apparently. Who knew grognards were so gay?
Absolutely fucking demented levels of projection. Waifugayry includes the uggo vampire too.
>Waifugayry includes the uggo vampire too.
>I, the leaker and Larian employee, personally want to say I hate you, consider you an utter gay and retard, a romancefag and a coomer.
So the gays that work on this game give literal gay vampires a pass but someone being HETEROSEXUAL? That's schizo coomer degeneracy!
bro you need to learn how to read.
>bro you need to learn how to read.
>gay shill continues to give astarion gay romance a pass while complaining about "muh waifu coomers"
>muh projection muh projection
Says the gays unironically praising Larian WHO CHOSE TO ADD A gay ROMANCE TO THEIR OWN FUCKING GAME while criticizing "coomers" who... are interested in women. You can cite projection as much as you want but it doesn't change your gayry. You're the ones praising gay vampire romance after and only complaining about waifus after all.
Ok let's test this. I want you to quote, not make up a quote, literally link a post and point out what is said, of where somebody is saying the things you say they are.
Go on, do it.
>>I, the leaker and Larian employee, personally want to say I hate you, consider you an utter gay and retard, a romancefag and a coomer.

You're not just a gay and a retard you're fucking blind too
Guys, I do not care about male companions. I guess some of you do, but this is really boring to me. Talk about females and celebrate females and love females.
Video games (RPG).
How do you guys keep falling for the same schizoposter replying to himself? It's a small board and a small group of people, you should know better by now.
Is this his most insane spergout yet?
Literally making things up to get upset about, kek
>making things up
Are you still trying to deflect from Larian added a gay vampire romance to their own game? It' so noticeable how you ignore that point whenever it's brought up. It's your kryptonite.
Can you find a single post in this thread where people treat Astarion positively?
I can find dozens one-sidedly complaining about heterosexual romance while conveniently ignoring the homosexual romance Larian chose to add. To dumb it down for you I can't see a single post where you shills complain about Larian writing that character. Even when it's negative about him being gay you separate it from the fact Larian wrote him. You simply refuse to link their culpability in his (extremely gay) content.
>I can find dozens one-sidedly complaining about heterosexual romance
Ok, point them out.
So, you actually can't? So you admit ur just making all this shit up in ur head?
>Even when it's negative about him being gay you separate it from the fact Larian wrote him.
Ur one of the most insecure people I have ever interacted with. Who thinks like this. I have to assume this is a bit
Also since you seem to purposefully be ignoring posts, I'll say it again. All the origin characters are player sexual. Astarion is only gay if you WANT him to be gay. You're bitching about a self made problem.
Ok I'll bite. You do know he's only gay if you romance him as a male, right? You can romance him as a female and not have any issue. All the origin characters are player sexual.
This says nothing about astarion. You're buttblasted.
You gotta hand it to him, he got the gay in denial shtick down to a tee. Type of guy that loudly proclaims he loves women but gets weirdly aggressive towards twinks and femboys.
>if you don't like gay shit you're gay
>you have to LOVE gay shit to prove you're straight
Absolute garden gnomeery
>but gets weirdly aggressive towards twinks and femboys.
Oh you're an actual unironic leftist gay pretending to be a centrist grognard. Whatever.
>larian didn't add a gay character because he's only gay when he's gay
Holy fuck the spin just to deny Larian added a gay to their own game.
Holy shit this retard is actually super triggered lmao

that's because they used to hire fags to keep them under control like how they hire pedos now that being gay is socially acceptable. can't trust a puppet without having leverage on them.
An interesting theory. So who hired you to be the local vocal anti-gay town crier?
i'm a third party. i was molested as a small child and through sheer force of will managed to retain my heterosexuality in the face of traumatic imprinting.
>Ok I'll bite. You do know he's only gay if you romance him as a male, right?
Stop the fucking presses look at this fucking genius over here. The point is Larian added a gay romance on their own you dumb fuck!
>larian added a gay romance
>uhhh no they didn't he can romance women too he's only a gay when he's a gay and he's not a gay when he isn't therefore larian didn't add a gay romance
>you just admitted larian added a gay romance
>uhhh no they didn't
Dumbass. You cannot understand simple concepts.
>This says nothing about astarion.
That's the fucking point. How fucking retarded are you? It IGNORES the gay romance that Larian chose to add while getting on a soapbox about "waifu coomers" you dumb fuck. If you STILL can't understand the point you're either too fucking dumb, too much of a shill or both. Fucking idiot.
So your problem is there's gay romance at all? Does gay people existing trigger you so badly that you really had to go on this temper tantrum?
Also, the post just mentions romances in general you turd, it doesn't specify straight or homosexual. You're really freaking out just because you want to.
>So your problem is there's gay romance at all? Does gay people existing trigger you so badly that you really had to go on this temper tantrum?
There it is.
>Heads up, everyone hates Astarion and gayry itt
Really nakes you think
>Waifugayry includes the uggo vampire too.
Really makes you think
>Holy shit the amount of projection in this post.
Really makes you think
>Can you find a single post in this thread where people treat Astarion positively?
Hmmm
>>I can find dozens one-sidedly complaining about heterosexual romance
>Ok, point them out.
I WONDER
>So your problem is there's gay romance at all? Does gay people existing trigger you so badly that you really had to go on this temper tantrum?
This whole time it was just wokegays praising gay shit because they're woke gays that are gay. Expected.
So then what the fuck is your problem, retard?
>GAY PEOPLE EXISTING IS HECKING VALID YOU WAIFU ROMANCE COOMER INCEL TOUCH GRASS DRUMPF VOTER
LMAO
Ok so then it IS the fact that there are gay people.
And yeah, they have the right to exist. That shouldn't shock you.
He thinks being playersexual is woke in current year, never mind that the whole of Faerun is one massive orgy of degenerate and incestuous hedonism. Kind of the wrong setting to cry about wokism.
I'm aware he's trolling, his antics are way too over the top to be anything else. I wouldn't be surprised if this was farquaad.
wait, wasn't this whole thread meant for ironic shitposting? that's why OP did the who blatant "this is a general" thing. are you guys actually not getting the joke?
And here's the "I'm just pretending to be retarded!"
so what's the link to you guy's discord? hook a brotha up.
This has to be some kinda Larianbro falseflag, right? Everything from the insane homo in denial vibes to the animepics, this guy is a fucking caricature.
No way its real.
Wasn't this game such dog shit everyone forgot about it in under a week?
Yes that's why it's had a thread up constantly since release.
yeah this schizo keeps spamming threads
whatever helps you cope
see? immediate response. dude's up all day and night defending bg3. crazy shit.
>you responded to me that means I win 🙂
This isn't even my thread. Looks like maybe you need the meds.
so you are simply ignorant and overly defensive. you should probably just keep your mouth shut when you don't know what you are talking about, kiddo.
You talk like this is fucking history or someshit, chill the fuck out.
the shills lost, anon. get a life, sir.
no ur thinking about Deadfire
What was that about everyone being against gayry itt and not giving Astarion a pass, Larian shills?
these dudes are as gay as pink ink, you can tell by their pseudo-womanly posting style, very shrewish.
Wow the BG3 discussion in this thread is terrible. Maybe I'll check out reddit...
god i hate forgotten realms and ed greenwood. horrible setting. dragonlance was 1000 times better.
Ok, bye
hello! you seem to have trouble with opinions you don't like. first, try relaxing your butthole.
I just don't see how it contributes. You came in, said "I don't like thing! I like this thing!" and that's it.
could you give some guidelines to what you consider a "proper" post, anon? i wouldn't want to offend your sensibilities in this thread you own.
I don't own anything. I just acknowledged you post and said goodbye since you didn't seem to have more to add. You're taking this awfully hard, anon.
yeah, because it offended you, so you went passive aggressive valley girl and did the whole "buh-bye" thing. what a childish person.
That's a pretty heavy assumption over two words, anon. I meant what I said it meant, nothing more nothing less. Any other meaning you take away is yours and yours alone.
the hallmark of passive aggressive behaviour such as yours is maintaining plausible deniability. you are extremely easy to see through, especially since you won't own your words. grow up, weasel-kun.
You're assigning meaning that isn't there, anon. You want the meaning because that means you can cause more trouble in the thread. However, the meaning isn't there so instead we're having this inane conversation.
This is stupid.
I prefer Eberron myself.
Remind ser that all of this started because some gay in denial posted on Ganker, and got BTFO so hard that his mind broke and he still spergs out 3 years later
Grim. Moral of the story: don’t be gay, and if you do, don’t be a fag about it!
okay, how do i get in contact with ser?
>defends gayry
>shills for gayry
>gay acceptance speech right out of a wokefag script
>BUT IF YOU FIND GAYS DISGUSTING YOU'RE JUST A CLOSETED GAY IT'S ONLY LOVING GAY SHIT THAT MAKES YOU STRAIGHT
>something something christian conservatives and drumpf
Fucking retarded gay.
Hey, make up more things to get mad about all you want. Just don’t reply to me!
Listen, he's not a gay alright? He has imaginary relationships with women and imaginary sex with men. So what?
So what is it about this game in particular that makes it impossible to discuss on 4chins
It all boils down to being 3 years in EA.
It is vaguely threatening to one particular individual's sexuality. 100 rage posts a day keeps the gay away.
Sequel to a very popular and loved crpg made by a developer whose last game was loved by a ton of people and hated passionately by others for various reasons.
The very first early access versions of the game looked and played very similar to OS2, giving rise to the myth that it's just an OS2 reskin. Despite 3 years of large changes, this myth persists because at a glance the games look similar. (Top down, 4 person party, colorful 3d graphics)
There's also the spam shitpost that's already been posted in this thread about the character customization, so I won't go into too great of detail about it. Suffice to say 4chantards got buttblasted over it.
And in general there's just a lot of misinformation and ignorance surrounding the game, leading people to make statements about things they know nothing about yet talk like they're experts. Typical Ganker type stuff.
>Suffice to say 4chantards got buttblasted over it.
it's funny how this is the cope you guys latch onto no matter how often it is explained. it's about telling players their characters aren't kosher, canary in the coal mine for not understanding rpgs. larian doesn't get character creation, they'd rather write characters.
See now it's suddenly about the role-playing, riiiiight.
That's why the image is always named no white men allowed, right.
Such a paper thin defense.
yes, i explained that earlier.
i've been consistent since day one.
no.
So you DMd a game and all your players came to you with the same exact character, you'd be ok with that?
They just all need to be white humans, duh.
So if one character did bring a white human male you'd tell him his character was boring and generic and to fuck off? Wait, of course you would.
Not at all, every party needs a butt monkey. He'd be the perfect target for abuse and mockery.
>It's not racism if it's against whites
>It's not sexism if it's against men
You're showing exactly what you are. Standard wokegay dogma.
This is the part where I point out I was obviously sarcastic and then you make a witty retort about how I was totally not pretending and then I ask why you can't take a joke and then you refer to the meme posted earlier and ask why I can't take a joke and so on
No, I wouldn't. The point larian was making was that there were a LOT of them. There was a lot of content going unused.
this is something they should have talked about internally then. my first thought would be, why are people not finding these other options appealing and why do we care either way? larian, though, are unprofessional tards and couldn't grasp that, instead "it's the players that are wrong".
And they never said that. They made a post trying to encourage people to use the other options. It was journalists that turned it into "DA PLAYERS B RACISTS".
>It's the journalists that keeps bringing it up on Larian's social media years later
How do they do it?
>larian: this is your fault
i condemned the patch notes before those articles came out, for the exact reasons i'm stating right now. it shouldn't have been posted, it's bad manners in roleplay to criticize another person's character and really bad optics when making a d&d game. i know most people won't care, "it's just a joke", well, my picture saying "nowhitehumansallowed" is just a joke too, and yet, people seem to care about that.
You do realize that "this is your own fault" line refers to how the thing was generated, right? You're not THAT dumb, right?
yes, they are blaming the players for the statistical amalgamation. basically saying that, on average, they consider their players to being lacking creativity.
>blaming
It's tongue in cheek, my tismal friend. And they don't think they lack anything. Just the opposite, as they encourage the players to use the full spectrum of options available.
yes, they are telling their players what to do. which means they are saying what they are already doing is doing it wrong. yes, they couched it in cutesy language, but for people who can read comprehensively, the intent of the message is clear. maybe it doesn't bother you, that's fair, you probably don't get roleplay either, but i find it funny that you can't accept my critical perspective in any way shape or form. it's really quite telling, classic fanboyism.
>hey guys go expirement with the character creator!
>NOOOOOOOOO HOW DARE YOOOOUUUU WHITE GENOCIIIIIIIDE
So what is even the role of DM to you, except being a human rulebook? Are you just never allowed to pitch in on a player's roleplaying because that might hurt their feelings?
dictating player's choice is not what i did at the table, no. people aren't going to want to play if you tell them they are playing it wrong. let them get into it, maybe their next character will be an elf or dwarf or whatever? who knows.
That did not answer my question. What exactly did you *do* at the table? Give warm reassurance that the players are all perfect just the way they are?
i adapted to the situation the player's presented me with and led by example. this isn't someone being disruptive where i would weigh in, it's looking at their freshly rolled character sheet, which is fitting to the setting and then saying, "you can do better".
>you can do better
Which is all Larian is saying.
>Which is all Larian is saying.
>makes the default a black afro ooga booga human woman
kek
>rpg with many different races with many different color skins
>black human triggers me
>Be Larian

>WHAT, THIS CANNOT STAND!
Retard
This is your last (you) from me, I hope it gives you the attention you are desperately seeking.
Goodbye.
There were many different Tavs in that trailer. You retards decided to hyperfocus on the black one because... they existed I guess?
yes, i'm saying i would never say that.
that wouldn't happen, but it would be kinda cool if it did. four dwarf brothers facing down the world. that'd be awesome. again though, this is a single player game, none of those people compared their characters to each other and they were all unique in some way.
That is not what was communicated with what you said. Try rereading it, you'll see what I mean.
ah, now we reach the root of the problem, you can't read well.
I can read just fine, your post was a mess.
no, it's extremely clear. you just didn't read it well.
This is beside the point.
There's nothing wrong with telling your players they can do better. It encourages them to improve and try things they normally wouldn't have. Plus it improves the experience for everyone involved.
you improve by doing it, anon. let them do it and they'll improve. you don't hold their hand and stifle their interest by critiquing their characters. holy shit, is this the kind of advice that goes around nowadays? what shitty tables these must be.
You're their DM, anon. They look to you for guidance in the setting and rules. And if I think a player has the ability to make something more than what they're showing me, I'm going to let them know, and I'll offer my advice in improving their character if they're a rookie. Throwing them in the deep end may work for some but it's a good way to chase potentially great players off.
i already established we are talking about characters that fit the setting here, because in a video game they can't not, since the selection is predetermined. advice is fine if sought, but let people play the character they want as long as it's reasonable, i'm not saying let the guy who wants to play a tinker driving a steampunk mech have his way. remember to keep this discussion within the context of a crpg.
>sudden subject change back to crpgs
And Larian aren't saying grrrrrr no more white Tavs. If they wanted that they'd remove the option to make one entirely.
During EA they have to extensively test all the combinations of character models, the animations that go with them, and what that does with the physics engine (like tiefling tails). The post was meant to get more variety in characters going so more varied data could be gathered so they could make more armor, animations, possible customization options, etc.
yes, they seemed entitled to using their fullpriced early access paying customers as beta testers
>entitled
That's what early access is for you fucking fool.
no, it isn't. it's to try the game out early. if they wanted people to ignore their own proclivities and devote themselves to testing characters they don't want to play, they should offer a discount.
Holy shit you're retarded.
What do you think this warning is for?
justification for a cash infustion.
>infustion
I don't think that word means what you think it means.
And I don't see why that warning would make them any more money than releasing the game the classic way.
Also, that warning is on literally every EA game. You can look and see for yourself.
What do you think early access is?
You are literally paying them to be a beta tester, that is what EA is.
Nah you're paying for the full the game and as an option you can play the beta version. Everyone wins.
This. Also you get to see the game evolve and get to give your input.
That is what Beta testers do yes.
QA beta testing is for finding these kinds of issues.
The difference is now you pay for access to it instead of them having to pay as many QA testers.
> they were all unique in some way.
You forgot about special, and beautiful, and perfect and creatively named Dude or Bro or Chad.
So you were just a dogshit DM. If 4 people wanted to make an all-dwarf party with the same appearance and attributes and skills you'd allow it because that's what roleplaying is, just memes and bee yourself bzzzz.
>if you don't accept my viewpoint you're a fan boy
What utter retardation
yes, but that wouldn't happen and isn't what happened, anon. for one, this is a single player game. in addition, the picture is an amalgamation of the most popular character choices, which they used to imply their player's aren't being creative enough, while actual people put their personal touches on as much as the limited creator allows. i wouldn't have a problem with their statement if it was that people were just clicking through with a default character.
>in addition, the picture is an amalgamation of the most popular character choices, which they used to imply their player's aren't being creative enough
That's... going by the definition. If I average 1000 data points and the output is Tal the white human male, then the conclusion is not that most players choose to rp as an OC donut steel blue haired tiefling (female).
it doesn't everyone picked a male or a cleric or a human or white or that face or eyes, just that most people picked those specific options which were blended together into that character. you guys really can't grasp this?
You don't need to reiterate what an amalgamation is. You just need to address why it upsets you when someone pokes fun at said amalgamation being white human male Tal.
>this is your fault
>c'mon, guys
this is what bothered me, not the pic. tone deaf, especially considering it's early access and they should be thankful people are playing their game. like i said, it's an indication to me what kind of people are working there, so yeah, i'm gonna shit on them when i feel the mood.
You've been triggered for 3 years over these innocent words? Wew. I'd call you an emotional woman but I don't want you to get mad at me for 7 years.
yeah, it's kinda crazy how long this game has been in development. time flies.
>larian doesn't get character creation, they'd rather write characters.
Do you not see how contradictory this statement is
How fucking stupid are you? They don't give a shit about the player's input into the game or the story they just want to push their SPESHUL OCs.
>their SPESHUL OCs.
This is their game, with their story. That makes your character the "SPESHUL OC"
>custom character gets less features and less content
>custom warlock doesn't even get a fucking patron like wyll does
Fucking shill retard
>he doesn’t know
The origin characters actually are extremely high on the speshul-o-meter though.
No they're not you're an incel schizo spammer
>extremely gifted mage that played with ancient ebil magic just to see a goddess again and in result turned into Speed: The Character whose death can easily erase the whole Baldur's gate
>centuries old buttboy of the extremely powerful real deal vampire that is being hunted after now
>renowned hero known as Blade of Frontiers, who also sold his soul
>cleric of Shar sent on super sekrit mission to steal the McGuffin that everyone is after
>don't know much about the frog as I never got her approval level high enough so I give you that
>all in one place, same time
If that's not high speshul levels for you then I simply don't know.
If you dislike the game so much why are you here discussing it? Why don't you go post in a thread about a game you do like?
>if you dislike the game
I'm just telling how it is, don't get your panties in a bunch.
Weren't mind flayers just grabbing people at random?
>Weren't mind flayers just grabbing people at random?
We don't actually know. That could have been cover to get a specific people.
Yeah, but a specific force saved the companions from death, and from being controlled by the mindflayers
That's why your character survives an otherwise fatal fall from the mindflayer ship
It's almost like they're being gathered or something
No they're not you're an incel schizo spammer
I can't wait to make and entire custom party at launch and murdering most of those terrible characters.
In this case it's better to kick them out so they could be an enemy later.
No, I don't want to deal with them.
I'm cutting the head of the tiefling too just in case she's a companion.
Larian isn't American enough and DnD isn't mainstream enough for 4chan to give a shit about it. The fag in denial schizoposting for years doesn't need to be politically invested, he's just supremely butthurt and fixated for reasons best left unknown.
Sanest post itt sadly
The absolute state of this fucking thread.
Just stop replying to the shitposter.
Shadowheart is hot
Larian are based European old school coomers
DOS2 sold millions, BG3 will sell tens of millions
And Swen always wins
>shills flipflopping from COOMER BAD to COOMER GOOD as it suits glorifying larian
LOL
There's FULLY ANIMATED SEX SCENES in the game.
what a waste of money that is, uncanny valley will never be hot.
>that's so based and so is the gay vampire romance
>but romance coomers are pathetic
>but larian is still based for adding animated fucking and gay sex
>but coomers should touch grass
>but gay sex good though
Shills are disgusting
Seek therapy for your latent homosexuality, the rest of us will enjoy bending Lae'zel in every position our DEX score allows us to
Says the gay defending gay shit with UHHHH GAY PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO EXIST?! UHHHHH AND IT'S NOT LIKE GAY PEOPLE HAVE NEVER FACED OPPRESSION OR ANYTHING?! UHHHH AND IT'S NOT LIKE HOMOPHOBIA IS STILL RAMPANT IN SOCIETY OR ANYTHING?! lmao
Yes, gay gays existing does not bother me. It's literally just a (You) problem, buddy.
LMAO
You're trying, way, way too hard.
Why are Larian shills so fucking gay?
I'm not gay. I have sex with FEMALES like Lae'zel.
>I have sex
No, you don't.
Why are you trying so hard to fit in? Take it to Ganker or 4chan.
>UHHHH GAY PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO EXIST?!
Yes
>UHHHHH AND IT'S NOT LIKE GAY PEOPLE HAVE NEVER FACED OPPRESSION OR ANYTHING?!
Are you implying they haven't? Because history disagrees.
>UHHHH AND IT'S NOT LIKE HOMOPHOBIA IS STILL RAMPANT IN SOCIETY OR ANYTHING?!
If you're anything to go by then yeah there's still a problem.
Anon, you do know that you only get the gay options if you choose the gay options? I've played the EA a few times and not once have I seen any of the gay stuff.
Playing as a female Astarian wanted to sleep with me.
Stop being a triggered homophobe. Don't play the game if it bothers you so much.
Minthara best girl.
>everyone in my schzo headcanon is the same person
Yep, it’s meds time!
>no Pathetic bottom text
You are preordering the full game. You get the full game on release, you get to play 3 days early and you also get a free upgrade to the deluxe edition.
The EA is free, you get to play the game and test different builds etc. Don't want to do that? Wait until the game is released then buy it.
Larian actually listen to player feedback and have made loads of changes based on feedback from the EA already. The EA now is completley different to how it was when it first came out, they have made a shitload of changes, even did a graphics overhaul. All of this based on player feedback which has helped improve the game a lot, EA has been a big help for the game and making it better.
Without EA, all these changes and improvements wouldn't have happened for moths or even a year after the game fully released.
EA is not a bad thing when done right, Larian isn't some literally who that relaeses a game in EA and then never finishes it. They use EA the right way, to improve the game.
>save tiefling girl
>Lae'zel disapproves
Lae'zel's line of thinking is ''cull the weak if they can't manage on their own'', if she thinks someone is weak she will bully them. That's why she tries to dom you or you can show her that you're strong and dom her instead.
And yet she participates in a team. Curious!
>Lae'zel's line of thinking is ''cull the weak if they can't manage on their own''
Surely that line of thinking, while sensible in general, needn't be extended to a defenseless little girl
She's been raised as a githyanki. You could say that she is even a bit soft for your average gith but that could be explaines with her personal weakness and self doubt.
Why are githyanki so mean to everyone? Why are space frogs like this?
They are the evil space frogs. If you want good (or at least neutral) space frogs, you need githzerai.
She's a stupid evil member of a stupid evil race, so this checks out. I guess the drow are too vanilla for Larian, so they went with the gith for memes and novelty.
Technically there are two possible links to as far as i remember.
>drow have dealings with squids in the underdark
>giths have dealings with squids while jumping from one realm to another
I am fine with either.
The green tsundere is just jealous.
Lae'zel is a walking pile of insecurity. She leans extremely hard into the "ruthless warrior culture" crap because she's compensating for her own feelings of inadequacy.
I'll show her who's boss in bed. Going to absolutely demolish that frog pussy
Stop calling her a frog
Going to absolutely destroy that toad pussy.
I miss her, bros.
You know that playing old games for a second time is a thing, right?
Only go forward, never go back.
I still reinstall some of my old favorite games while i wait for a new game that i like to come out. Lately there simply arent many game that cathc my eye. Right now there are like 4~5 games i am looking forward to.
>Baldur's Gate 3
>Rogue Trader
>Cyberpunk 2077:Phantom Liberty
>Homeworld 3
The years 2022 and 2023 so far have been horrible years for gaming. Barely any new games worth playing so i just reinstall old games and keep playing the BG3 early access.
I tried, but it just feels too junky nowadays. I dunno if it just doesn't work properly on my system, and googling didn't bring a proper answer, but the controls (especially the wsad option) were very imprecise and jumpy.
I bought the game on GOG and then visited the GOG forums for tips on how to optimize the game for my new PC. Visit the GOG forums i personally find them very usefull when trying to run older games that i bought.
