I just wanna know how incels and femcels are coping. They bought the game because they were promised a porn dating sim but romances have, at best, 20 minutes of content and just 1 or 2 poorly done sex scenes. I laugh every time i see incels have meltdowns over Shadowheart sex scene being a literal fade to black.
>Shadowheart sex scene being a literal fade to black.
Wtf is this true? Do you even see her nipples at all?
You can see her nipples at any time by just unequiping her clothing.
Pretty much all of the sex scenes are
The one one that's more than a quick fade to black is with Minthara
*Only
At least out of the women.
That is a good thing. Sex scenes always look terrible because animating them makes them look fake and unnatural.
Witcher 3 had relatively good quality animations but they still looked awkward.
And you can gaze upon companions nude bodies at any time by taking their clothes off.
>All those good animated porn vids
So devs are just shit? They can hire gays to make sex grunts, but no actual animators?
>Shadowheart sex scene being a literal fade to black.
are you talking about at the party? I don't think they frick there
same thing with the one in the actual town of baldurs gate
you get on top of her and it cuts to black
>but romances have, at best, 20 minutes of content and just 1 or 2 poorly done sex scenes
Isn't this normal for the genre
no one bought this for romance. most people dont have "waifus" except a few attention prostitutes on this site
They did the same in div 2. Why do this shit again? At least they fixed it, but that can't be a good company strategy
How is this okay.
Sony probably contractually forces major PS5 releases to be in line with their own game prices. Kind of like how Microsoft used to force valve to make dlc that was free on pc to be paid on xbox to not set a precedent.
Alternatively they're making bag because they can get away with it.
>an actual reasonable reply
man, I'm looking for some outrage here. couldn't have waited to say this after I snagged a couple bait replies?
But Armored Core 6 is $60 on all platforms
weren't console games always more expensive?
I guess it's more bullshit now when both Sony/MS and Gaben both take 30% cut but I remember new AAA games always being 60 bux on consoles and 50 on pc
Now post Diablo 4's cash shop, price and battlepass
it's called the console Black person tax
you deserve it for your own stupidity
imagine paying double for Internet monthly and never being able to pirate or hack your games
>sony out of the gate were pushing for $70 games on the PS5
>surprised that its now happening with most titles
you only have yourself to blame for buying that console anon
The game will objectively run better on PS5 so it makes sense to charge only $10 more
Wait BG3 is on playstation?
Extra charge for PC players beta testing the game for you during "release"
Snoy tax
Act 3 was the best part though?
t. someone who played and beat it
Why do you pose your opinions as questions? Act 3 was a pile of steaming shit compared to Act 1
Act 3 was pure kino, especially house of hope, have you made it to act 3 yet in your youtube watch along?
Act 3 was kino and nearly bug free for me, but I also lucked out. I had several pals get wiener blocked several times by bugs.
No but I've made it to act 3 in my playthrough, you troglodyte. The main story goes to shit. After Act 2 it's just a series of unsurprising twists and disappointing boss fights. Not to mention the cluster frick battle in the upper city where you have to wait for 10 million underleveled goblins and winged horrors to take their turn
>Low IQ brownoid gets filtered because he can't wait
Pathetic cope. Act 1 was kino and a whole game like that would have been GOTY, Act 3 is just bland shit, felt like I was playing dragon age
Act 1 is just doing random loosely connected shit with no huge moments. Act 2 has the best parts of the game and Act 3 is still better than act 1.
Midwit marvel fan detected. Act 1 actually felt like a pen and paper game instead of a bioware game
Low level adventures always turn into big shit.
>pen and paper game starts with you being given special snowflake powers on board of a mind flayer ship but its also in hell
Oh the whole Illithid subplot is moronic but the rest of Act 1 was mostly reasonable by 5e standards at least. Sure it's no Nashkel mines but for 5e it felt fairly subdued compared to the rest of the game (again with the exception of the Illithid shit)
>instead of a bioware game
moron.
Act 1 was literally just basic dogshit, you and the companions aren't just some gay level 1 adventerurs
Sarevok was a pretty cool fight
His allies buffing him was pretty neat but it was also pretty easy. My wizard had a very easy time putting hold person on him and then it was all over
>cast Hold Person on him
>blood ghosts cast Lesser Restoration to free him
It gave me one turn of my two melee critting him at will, with my fighter using action surge. It was enough to trivialize the encounter
He didn't use his big frick off attack after 4 hits for me, made it kinda lame and I killed him in 3 rounds or so. His adds just kept buffing eachother but were useless at fighting. All on mid difficulty and I was level 11 or 12.
>2 more weeks
>Stick to the plan
Bearbroken
From Pickiwedia:
"Bearis a novel by Canadian authorMarian Engel, published in 1976. It won theGovernor General's Literary Awardthe same year."
Why did it win an award? Are people really this horny for actual bears? How many of these kinds of people are there??
what's broken about it. I haven't seen any game breaking bugs yet. Are certain questlines bugged? I'm doing the good two shoes routes.
No, he's talking about how performance dips in act 3 a bit because its a big city, it wasn't that bad for me atleast.
really? i noticed act 2 saw a dip for me especially the last light
>a bit
>20-30% is "a bit"
eat shit
Several quests are bugged. Companion scenes can't be completely ruined and got unseen because of messed up flags. Performance is fricked.
Name the quests that are bugged?
The one with Barnaby P Smothers jellied nuts
The quest where you have to retrieve seven tortoises and bring them to a tortoise sanctuary
The one where you get jumped in an alleyway and raped if you don't pass a QTE
Iron Throne which may be fixed
Act 3 Hag stuff because non-lethal doesn't actually work sometimes
Pretty much any quest has a chance of just not actually completing, so always have a hard save ready to reset it. Most of it isn't too gamebreaking, but you'll get dialogue for things that didn't happen.
I've had some messed up conversations because flags weren't triggering properly.
Also, my gnome mission played out like the gondians were all dead even though I saved them from the iron throne and never let the collars go off.
Nothing that actually prevented progress of a quest.
These guys are just reposting shit they saw on reddit
Tiefling children Quest in literally the first place in Act1 can get bugged if you go about it the wrong way. The game expects you to save the one child that steals the locket, save another from the harpies, save a third from the druids and when they try stealing from you that you react benevolently. Upon not doing that I had none of the children reacting anymore. Couldn't talk to any of them. The "Investigate the Beach" Quest didn't pop up when going to the harpy area and after killing the harpies that kid walks up to you but you also can't talk or interact with it.
Didn't even realize there was a quest for the 3 of them all together. Just stumbled across them as I explored, myself.
Saved the locket kid and harpy boy, girl with the druids died. Mea Culpa for trusting that witch.
I missed the harpies area altogether and still got the "save all tieflings" cheevo in the end. Maybe a bug.
Halsin isn't in the Emerald Grove on my save because I went to camp during the party first. He is now permanently in my camp and I cannot complete the quest.
Act 1. Very reasonable actions by the player. This is a 100% repro, it's truly shocking that this bug made it to release.
there's a quest that as far as anyone can tell is 100% broken for everyone who comes across it
the only solution is just to kill every NPC in the building
so there's a lot of really blatant shit that flew under the radar
like how the frick did larian miss that minthara's entire questline is bugged?
>had to remove all the dark urge prompts from Tav and make a whole separate character for them just to get playtesters to actually click those options
I'm willing to bet it's something similar where the playtesters were gays and did the bare minimum in an evil playthrough
I'm pissed that it takes well over 2 hours to see the broken shit. It should not have left early access. I'm very excited to see how badly the PS5 version goes.
that quest where you have to kill/free the nightsinger was bugged in my playthrough, i went and talked to her directly and the quest proceeded to the castle assault while balthazar stood there doing nothing
Nice ESL post.
Not ESL, just moronic.
>Companion scenes can't be completely ruined and got unseen because of messed up flags
Sounds pretty ESL to me
>Companion scenes can be completely ruined and get unseen because of messed up flags from not long resting enough or not long resting every time they said they want to rest
There you go.
Skill issue. If you were unable to quickly identify the best times for long resting that is your fault.
Some plot hooks are left unresolved, the entire finale feels clunky and unfinished and the end is unsatisfying.
Near every quest has bugs in them
Hag quest: Hag has her HP set to 0, making it so that you cannot speak to or kill her, she just wanders around and cannot be interacted with. Later in the same quest, if you non-lethal the NPCs she is controlling, they still count as dead
Fireworks quest: third level only works if you kill everyone, pickpocketing the quest item doesn't trigger the flag
Printing press quest: If you saved the pixie in act 2, you first get dialogue that recognizes this, then when you speak to the printer again it acts as if you didn't save the pixie in act 2. Also not doing actions in very specific order causes the quest to randomly fail on next rest.
NPCs near this area can also see and shoot through the walls.
Just a few examples.
I killed the hag with no issues, but I did have the people she controls die even though I used non lethal. But I accidentally killed one of them myself so I assumed it was an al or nothing thing
NTA but also happened to me
>house with no roof
lol this game is so fricking cringe
Nonlethal doesn't stop the people from being deleted from the game world after you KO them
>Near every quest has bugs in them
this is why you wait for 3 full patches (hotfixes don't count), like a responsible person
my favorite was how during the entirety of the shadow-zone the tieflings talked about zevlor being a piece of shit who abandoned them when they were ambushed and tasked me with rescuing him from moonrise when he died defending the grove
I had Astarion say that Gale would like the stuff in Lorroakan's shop even though I never recruited Gale to me team/camp. Lazeal talked to me in camp saying she wanted to have a more passionate/soft night with me instead of the usual rough sex so thought I was going to get a cutscene with her but instead the game gave me a scene with the emperor talking to me during the long rest so possible overlapping trigger that caused me to miss out on the laezel scene or it doesnt exist. Another bug was helping Dame Aylin kill Lorroakin and after he died the quest Gather your Allies updated to say Dame Aylin was dead and can no longer help me in the final fight even though she was clearly alive. Those are just a few that come to mind
My current gripes
>Had dame bug out in act 3 whilst facing larroakan and just fricking stood there
>saves corrupting out of nowhere
>warlock becomes a dogshit class past level 10
>several cutscene bugs
>ambushes start getting a little ridiculous: if you fail the perception check you can have ~2 of your characters downed before you even get a turn
>(good) casters are able to obliterate everything once they get 6th level spells. In larroakan's tower you can find a 5th level scroll which can deal 70 damage in a single turn and can't miss. Other classes start feeling underwhelming
Warlocks get to bump three enemies into pits at once, plus three spell slots. What's wrong with them? Also, fancy magic missile is better with an evoker, and maxes at 140 damage.
>fancy magic missile
what's this? You mean upcast to 6th level?
Sure. Waste all of them spell slots on magic missile. With an evoker and with the +1 missile neck item. Kills bosses pretty good. Don't do this with a sorcerer, it's a waste of spell slots.
Wait no, I mean the one you find in the tower's vault in act 3. The one you need to short rest to use again.
>Warlocks get to bump three enemies into pits at once
Yeah, that's nice in theory but in reality, they miss 2 out of 3 shots even with 90%+ hit chance.
>casters are able to obliterate everything once they get 6th level spells
>warlock becomes a dogshit class past level 10
Welcome to DND bro we tried to warn you
There are a lot of bugs. I have not found any game breaking ones, but there are quest and encounter bugs.
Gale's quest broke completely for me.
Elminster sits in my camp with an exclamation point but never does anything.
Wyll's quest does not finish at all.
I have had to reload multiple battles because the AI just stops working. The first time I fought Orin every single enemy just stood still and did nothing. Could have won it easily but I don't cheat so I reloaded.
The finale is not very interesting.
As someone else said the performance tanks a bit. It runs better on Vulkan but Direct X11 is a complete stutter fest. Of course using Vulkan I have had Vulkan crashes during longer battles so I have to save constantly.
Act 1 and 2 are amazing. 3 is not terrible but the quality is definitely worse. You can definitely feels the crunch.
>works on my machine
I love watching tendies and todd shills try so hard to disparage the game when it already won.
Cope more please.
95% of people who bought this because it was a Meme aren't going to ever reach Act 3 in the first place. Check Steam Achievements.

The worst bug I had in Act 3 was being spotted through a floor by pedestrians as I looted the fireworks shop which caused a steel watcher to come in and start another fight. I don't think I had any quests fire flags that they shouldn't have, I also don't know if Karlachs quest is just unfinished or bugged.
My performance actually got better in act 3 too, I stopped having constant memory leak problems which plagued me in the latter half of Act 1 and all of Act 2
But but but i was told muh larian developer was quality developer unlike those bad AAAs and they make complete game bug free???!! Did influencer sama lie to me????!!’b
Nope. Its best game on the market. Guaranteed to be less buggy and garbage than Starfield next week.
>fight loroakin
>dame Alyn just dissapears for good until the very end of the game
Is this meant to happen?
>walking through the upper city
>steel watcher stops me and tells me that Karlach has a defective heart and should be taken to the foundry
>save all the little shits in the foundry
>no option to see if they'll fix her heart
I'm still mad
i was annoyed there was no option to even try to set the steel watch to attack goresh's men, or get to the iron throne without pissing him off
>or get to the iron throne without pissing him off
This caused me to reset so many times. I thought the quest had bugged and all the prisoners would instantly die if I tried to dock. Really poor implementation, especially when you consider how buggy Act 3 is, makes it seem like one when it isn't.
i wish there was a way to let him be cool with you there and explore a little, talk to prisoners, start the destruction system yourself, lie to the gondians in the factory idk
he did talk to me when i went down but all opinions but fricking off made him explode the thing, talking to him personally only makes him angry i don't have orin's stone yet either
let me lie goddammit
There's even an option to bribe the dwarf that explicitly says "GORTASH DOESN'T NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS" then the Black folk shows up anyways
In one fight the guards activated the murder device for the slaves family but it spawned like 10m up in the air so it wouldn't let me touch it. Very nice bug.
I knew it was too good to be true.
No way you can have all that ammount of choices without affecting the ending portion of the game.
Now I know it will be better to wait for DLC and patches to fix that portion of the game. Larian games always have massive issues at release.
Funni how I can stomach all the Japanese ntr guro snuff monster rape porn but the sight of western "horny" game fills me with revulsion
Thinking bg3 enjoyers are the same hispanics and Black folk who like the renpy goblinas and DAZ models shit
I barely have time to play the game so by the time I hit act 2 the game is probably going to get patched to a decent level
>people are starting to reach the absolutely broken Act 3
What 5%?

It came to me in a dream.

did they hotfix food gain from camp stuff?
good thing this is larian so there will be an enchaned edition a year from now
god the hostage rescue is so fricking buggy
how is rescuing everyone supposed to be possible without cheats?
i have no problem unlocking everyone in time and rescuing all but one or two but their pathfinding just randomly kills itself and they stand still
shooting levers also doesn't work for some reason even though it works everywhere else in the game and the levers move, they just don't open the door
frick it this isn't worth the headache
mage hand helps but i gave up trying to save everyone and only gave a shit about the duke after 2 or 3 tries, its too annoying
I used Karlach to run and rescue all the prisoners and then parked the rest of my guys in the middle and took out the Sahuagin. The duke is easy as hell with dimension door and haste, teleport once, Mizora spawns explodey spiders, teleport twice and you're done.
yeah i've got no problem with the duke i was just trying to get absolutely everyone
i've been opening all the cells turn 1 but their pathfinding just keeps breaking randomly where they'll dash but just stand in place rather than running
The faster you are to get to the prisoners the easier it gets, they'll have more time to run out if you get to them early. Use Gale to cast Haste on Karlach before going down the hatch, then dash twice and pop boots of speed. That way you can make it to the mind flayer in one turn and save everyone on the way. The rest of your people can park in the middle and kill Sahuagin as they spawn.
I dont see the Mindflayers in the map. Does he always spawn?
The society of brilliance mindflayer guy from the underdark ends up in the prison. Or at least it did in my game, dunno what you did different in your game if he's missing.
He's pretty useful, he has an ability to straight up teleport one of your dudes and himself to the sub.
Only thing I can think of that isn't standard is giving the Githyanki egg to that lady.
Where is the lodge? I should hit it up before I do anything.
You first meet the friendly mind flayer in the myconid colony in the underdark, but I don't think you can return to the underdark after you've progressed to act 3.
The society is here but I doubt you find the mind flayer there if you haven't interacted with him previously.
>Gave the gith egg to the lady in the mountains
>everyone there is fricking dead
I messed up.
You could have given her the owlbear egg instead.
I've been enjoying act 3 until I did the iron throne quest. I keep losing a whole turn due to some weird bug with the spawning Sahhuins that just fricks up everything.
I should probably just try to save as many people as I can and just dip then right? Or I could just skip the quest until it's fixed and nuke the factory with everyone inside
The extra allies can help in the final battle, but that rescuing all of them is a major pain in the ass. It isn't that bad where you would need a ton of allies so it's up to you.
>builds a big ass underwater prison to hold like 10 prisoners
Why? The amount of effort and resources that would take is INSANE
he says it's a relic of older times refurbished if you ask him about it.

Why are the troon shills so insistent on calling this game a flop?
But that’s not the case at all. I just checked myself, and most of the reviews giving anything less than 10 came very soon after release. The most recent reviews have been 10/10. Why lie on the internet?
this game is only so high rated by critics because it's an lgbt game that forces gay sex on the player

homie play the game however you want what the frick
i am 50 hours still in act 1. i did the underdark and then went back and did the mountain pass too cause frick it
Act 3 has all of the best nostalgia bait, though. I liked it.
Cope, schizo. Act 3 was my favorite by far. How many false narratives are you going to attempt to write for this game? Your mental illness is hilarious.
Nothing wrong with the content when it works, the thing is, it doesn't more often than does
I encountered only a handful of bugs in my 127 hours with the game. These schizo threads are never not going to be funny.
>in my 127 hours with the game
I win, kneel.
Act 3 was really good but the finale was an absolute letdown, you had very little control over the narrative and the end itself was a disappointment. And you must be blind if you didn't see more clunky animations, missing dialogue and other similar issues during the last few hours compared to the earlier parts.
