That sounds pretty fun, can you do shit like this consistently through the game?
Yes
You can kill everybody in the game besides children and a few beings that are immortal in lore. It's not a very good route though because you'll miss out on tons of exp, items, and general content as you'll miss their entire questlines or vendor stock.
>miss vendor stock
You can't loot vendors/their stash?
Vendor corpses for some reason only contain like 10% of their actual stock. You'll miss the vast majority of it since it's just vanished away.
try knocking them out with non lethal
Ive tried and i still only get a partial inventory
Weird. I knocked Dammon out with one punch and got his whole inventory. I am now going into Act 3 with 75k gold.
of course not, that wouldnt be very immersive
but you can have gay sex
>besides children
Huh? I've been killing gobbo and tiefling kids. Is it just human children you can't kill or something? Haven't killed one yet.
try that in a small town
>woman in charge causes entire town to needlessly die
Based game.
I don't take quests from libtards anyway.
Sounds like they deserved it? Idk what to tell you.
Anyone tried a throw based build yet? I have the build planned out for my second playthrough but I'm not sure it's doable without braking the gimmick
Isn't the problem with Throw that it doesn't count as an Attack, meaning you lose out on Extra Attacks?
Unless you mean throwing improvised weapons and inventory items.
What? Extra attack applies to Throw and Improvised Weapons.
It's OP to the point of not being fun. The second you use the ring of the glove, you introduce wacky scaling and it's over.
95% chance to hit on 25 AC targets at max range
also complete unusable indoors, so a lot of act 3
so all in what a shitty build that's unfun in two different ways
I've been running Lae'zel as a Tavern Brawler harpooner using the Returning Pike. She does good damage with it and can often take out enemies from outside encounter range. It does have a few problems. The pike always returns into your main weapon slot, so it's awkward using a different melee weapon. And sometimes it bugs out after you throw it and you need to go pick it back up. You do get multiple throws from extra attacks, btw.
make a dorf because there's the special throwing warhammer in act 3
I've got a Berserker with Tavern Brawler, shit gets dumb. You practically can't miss with throwing weapons even with disadvantages, you get a super item throw that knocks enemies prone. And I'm not even fully invested into the throwing gimmick either. The only thing that kinda sucks is that if you don't want to gimp your main weapon by holding the Returning Pike, you need to carry a lot of stuff to throw. I've hoarded something like 20 weapons in my inventory just for me to throw.
Wait until you get this and you'll stop needing to do that.
>This weapon will return to your hand when thrown.
Except when it randomly doesn't which is kind of annoying. I assume it's a bug maybe?
>Thunder/Radiant damage
I want this for my Tempest Cleric.
I keep forgetting to even use rage with berserker Karlach, not like it's really mattered yet though. One thing is you probably do want to keep some other throwable weapons on hand since there are times where the pike's arc is completely obstructed but a dagger will still go through just fine, due to something like weapon size and/or throwing arc.
Pretty sure it is. For me so far initiating a fight with a toss (either on unaware enemies or neutral npcs) causes it to not return. Outside of that it's always worked properly.
My friends want to do a coop game sometime so I was thinking about making a build that throws chests at people. Stuff it as full as possible before running into weight issues then just toss it and explode bodies.
Throwing is for Berserkers who can just throw living enemies at other enemies.
It's very viable early game and continues to be viable lategame because it's flat out broken when you get height advantage. Thrown weapons deal their regular damage roll plus any bonuses from gear THEN for some reason deal extra bludgeoning damage as if they're a falling object.
A spear thrown from two stories up can deal twice as much damage as a flat throw while knocking back any people the spear lands on top of.
Some weapons seem to have bugged throwing arcs though. The legendary harpoon with extra AoE throwing damage you can get at the start of Act 3 could only be used outdoors.
>Choices have consequences
>Anon complains
>Choices don't have consequences
>Anon complains
The thing that sucks is that you can't just loot all their inventories for the quest rewards and trading goods, which they logically should have on person.
I think they do if you knock them unconscious with something like Pommel Strike. I "killed" a vendor by knocking them unconscious and I got like 3 purple items, and a shit ton of other magic items. I did the same thing to Minthara and was able to loot her panties off her body. Was pretty kek.
You can loot mintharas underwear because she's a potential companion and has the same items companions do, whether you kill her or knock her unconscious
If you open passives window, you can switch to non-lethal strikes.
the consequence should've been everyone in town thanking you for getting rid of a moronic woman who attacks visitors
t. guy who hasn't played and doesn't know the perfectly logical reasons to refuse people with worms crawling in their heads
just shut up Black person you scored an 85 on an IQ test and thought you got a B+
nice canned comeback. where'd you learn that one? graduated school yet?
NieR
excuse me for wanting to play a character in a role playing game, homosexual
>no response
>just calls it canned
why do you come into threads for games you haven't played and get upset over in-game situations you have absolutely no context for?
what response would you like to that copypasted insult? here, let me check reddit
I'd call you dumb as a rock, but at least a rock can hold a door open...
I envy the people who havent met you
“You’re a conversation starter. Not when you are around but once you leave”
whatever gay, I had a dreamcast
you could respond to the substance of the reply instead of bursting into treats because I called you moronic at the end
but you can't because you know it's correct
>moron zoomer admits to lying about playing the original
fricking pathetic, all for internet street cred
LOL
I'll admit I didn't beat it if that makes you feel any better
what are you talking about? there was no substance it was just an insult
its okay bro, I remember a lot of games I played ages ago to a near photographic degree but for some reason I've forgotten nearly everything about BG other than getting bored while looting gnolls and I played through it twice
you didn't play the game or you have no theory of mind homie
the fact that's your not an absolute loyalist is the illogical factor that needs to be explained, not the people assuming you need to frick off or die for being infected, the burden of proof is on you in this instance
>that's your
please excuse me i'm high
you're still more stupid than the person who presses send on this
>write entire paragraph detailing my many points and grievances
>call you a moron at the end
>go "UHM, AD HOMINIM MUCH?" and ignore everything else that was said
thanks reddit, you've done wonders for internet discourse
A perfectly logical reason for...a blatant hole in the narrative? Sure it makes sense if you do follow the set decisions and path, but then it's hardly a RPG, is it pal?
>Sure it makes sense if you do follow the set decisions and path, but then it's hardly a RPG, is it pal?
You killed everyone who knew what was going on, and then didn't know what was going on. I'm not seeing what makes that "hardly an RPG".
They put me in a self defense situation.
that punch was fuelled with the power of anti-semitism and sexism
>NieR
Actually ties in with this thread's topic pretty well
>I was just roleplaying my character!
The rallying cry of morons since the 70s.
there's nothing wrong with roleplaying violent morons and then complaining that the experience wasn't immersive enough
>just shut up Black person you scored an 85 on an IQ test and thought you got a B+
lmao i need to remember that one
You're wrong, is the unfortunate part.
I've continued my adventure, and here's what's happened
>Travel around the town, killing random black women who attack me
>Unkillable kids glitch about at Mach speed shoulding 'SOMEBODY HELP ME'
>Randomly stumble upon a room with a (another) strong woman in it
>She immediately starts combat
>Kill her in 2 hits
>Cutscene plays
>Character starts talking to characters I've literally never encountered as if there was some section of content I was supposed to experience
It's literally like they never tested defying the strong woman who attacks you in the first place.
Well of course, chud. Defying strong women means that you are a sexist bigot chud. If anyone went down that path while testing then they obviously need to be fired for being sexist.
kek
i like sequence breaking stuff like that
especially if it causes npcs to go full moron
might try out this game now
ITT: shills desperately trying to defend shit like
Defying the strong women is literally a plot point if you have the Dark Urge background, the game straight up encourages you to murder them
And if you refuse you'll end up killing one of your companions in camp at night
>the Dark Urge is just Larian saying "Here Incels, you can play too"
>it's a sub-par play through
based
no one said Gankerpol/ was smart
>game sucks and is non-lore friendly to faerun
>dude maybe it's not the games fault?
>game sucks and is non-lore friendly to faerun
No, the game is 100% lore friendly to the setting. That is an issue in and of itself but don't pretend Greenwood hasn't been pozzed as shit for 15 years now, or at least bowing to it while cashing those fat Hasbro checks
>No, the game is 100% lore friendly to the setting.
you know, bg games weren't always pride parade
they were normal games with pretty good writing, actually. And strong whamen who don't need no man although present, were written well and were believable
And hasbro printed out shit for the last 20 years that changed it into the AIDS rodeo it is now. It 100% IS lore authentic to the current setting.
I don't acknowledge those changes. Why would I. They make no sense, cause they're retroactive
Who cares? Dark Urge kills the town also.
>Literal Bhaalspawn and self-defense lead to the same conclusion
The town chose to die.
It's called equifinality. Dark Urge kills the town in a different way and for different reasons, getting slayer form out of it. You kill for self-defense. End result is the same. What's there to be mad about?
> What's there to be mad about?
It’s the illusion of choice in a genre defined by choices being impactful.
>It’s the illusion of choice in a genre defined by choices sometimes changing text in an ending slide
FIFY, play more CRPGs noob
What? That's a terrible example of illusion of choice. You had a choice to not obey and you made that.
And the game doesn't account for him making that choice and breaks.
Wtf are you talking about? Have you even played the game? It doesn't break from that, it goes on fine.
It didn't break. It proceeded exactly how you would expect it to.
Normal people can swallow their pride in situations like that. You have a tadpole in your damn brains; you are potentially dangerous to these innocents. But no, how could you debase yourself with a simple explanation to auntie Jaheira. It's better to kill them all.
Yes, the main reason I play video games is so I will be put into situations where I have to swallow my pride. mmm...yes....
>you are potentially dangerous to these innocents
I am dangerous. If you get hostile with me you will die.
>muh pride
How about the NPC swallows its pride and bows down to me? Where's my option to make them surrender?
moron post
incel moment
Is that a kid alive in the background? I thought the game let you kill everyone with count by one hand exceptions.
Nah, it's typical western slop that tries to avoid letting you harm muh childrun at all costs. You can attack them, but even if you get them to 0 hp they instantly revive and/or don't die and run away from you at the speed of light.
>typical western slop
Remember in FO2 you could plant dynamite into thieving kids' pokets to not get the whole town go after you? Good times.
You can kill goblin children
Or let the druid bear do it himself
I broke free and then a Tiefling kid was like yo he saved us in the grove and shit
what village is this again?
Da Fricknugget village.
>enter random village uninvited
>people under attack by monsters and infested people on edge and want you the frick out or clip your wings so you don't act up
>REEEEE THEY DREW FIRST BLOOD
Why not give you the option to incapacitate the woman and then explain yourself?
Rather than your only option being to grovel and beg for mercy from some random strong woman that's attacking you?
Sounds like you're a little b***h. I ripped off the vines like a MAN, and then said, "Let me explain things" and I got to roll with advantage because I broke free and did not attack.
She then apologized and backed down
She also acted exactly as one would expect Jahiera to act, zoom zoom. Another BG secondary.
>people who need help immediately attack any visitors who might help
They don't attack, they ask questions while restraining you. Its literally the plot of The Thing, infested people could be anyone
yes, that's why I have no idea what any dialogue of the gay vampire is because in every playthrough he keeps shoving a dagger over my throat and somehow he doesn't expect me to kill him
haha enjoy not getting a permanent +2 str, STRlet
I'm a mage

I mean sorc, I don't play wizard unless I can be old and fat, sadly you're stuck playing as a generic 20's something in this game and not a real wizard
oh well, sorc can double haste and nuke all on the same turn, then super nuke the next turn so they're a-ok in my book.

>newspaper company
WOW, SO MEDIEVAL, SO FANTASY
of all the things to b***h about, you pick the thing that has been in the setting since its inception? Faerun has always had the printing press, moron. Do you think monks are hand binding all those thousands of fricking books you see everywhere?
>magic heavy setting
>still relies on real world mechanical contrivances for everything
many such cases, sad
I'm sure you weren't even alive back in the 90s to complain about Ed Greenwood's terrible books
you're going to pay a sorcerer to make books all day ?
or
own a machine that can do it for free after a while ?
you will be poor forever, don't bother trying to answer this
the machines need maintenance crews and have material costs
I'm pretty sure having unique ability to command elements pays
You talk like everything is made of magic.
Isn't magic a thing? Why the frick is a printing press the go to, this leads to pretty much every single technological advance being possible.
Name one fantasy setting where they actually use magic properly instead of constantly coming up with fake reasons to lean on real world medieval tropes while making magic some ridiculous elitist niche that is only used for fighting and showing off to muggles
Don't forget to read the latest issue of the Black Horse Courier
i mean, the first printing press was created in china before the middle ages. its not far fetched to have a newspaper especially whens magic involved. industrial production of the steelwatch is way harder to explain however
inb4 goalpost moving
>trusting googleglobohomo
kek
so what year was the printing press invented in, moron? I have an Encyclopedia on the shelf, so don't get it wrong.
>encyclopedia
ah of course, and let me know the author of that as well
100% bucks it's ((them))
>haha no answer will ever be correct because I'll just claim the israelites did everything including lie about when the printing press was made just to prove me wrong on a video game forum
massive moron, even if you are "merely pretending"
knew it
>printing press invented in 1463
What's wrong with printed works existing? Why should a world full of magic remain technologically stagnant? That makes no sense.
sorry bro, he said that date is wrong because THE israeliteS made it up. You'll have to try another argument.
Randomly tentacles have shot out of the ground.
A demon flew off with a guy's body???
And now I'm just here, surrounded by corpses.
The game has explained 0 of the things that have transpired.
>go to town
>kill everyone because le LULZ XD
>story goes on because the world is actually alive
>the priestess managing the shield spell to not allow the curse into the town gets kidnapped
>XD what happened XD i just killed everyone lmaoooooooooooo im so high
I didn't kill everyone "Because le Lulz XD" I literally chose the "Defend yourself from being attacked by a random woman" option.
dont quote me
I know exactly why all those things happened but why would you, who has killed everyone, expect to know any of that?
You killed the people who would've told you what is going on.
most shitposters don't actually bother to play the game so you get a B for effort at least
You're too lizardbrain for BG3
>what is going on, why won't anyone explain anything to me
>minutes before - you DARE question ME? I will kill all of you
you must get it a lot IRL too, huh
homie, I was literally attacked
The frick you want me to do?
>literally attacked
>feet held in place by some vines his character's noodle homosexual arms couldn't remove
LMAO
how many hit points did you lose?
and you can literally break out of jaehira's restraints and remain non-hostile, if you're not a little b***h
You needed to read the prequel nove moron
>all quest givers
She is the only quest giver. If you have karlach there is also her quest, but you probably sided with goblins
>vendors
There is one vendor with irrelevant items. There are two vendors at moonrise towers with best 2h weapon at that point of the game
>content
What fricking content, you will be proposed to kill them all 10 minutes later, after you take a quest from "le quest giver" and no matter what you choose, it will be the last time you visit that place
lol this fricking zoomer doesn't know Jaheira and is pretending they didn't just load the previous save.
>Defend myself
Careful cutting yourself on that edge, kiddo.
I actually beat the encounter pretty well. But, my character is pretty OP right now.
All my companions died, but, that's not too unusual.
Battlemaster, got like 23AC with haste, decent AoEs, and some nice scrolls to clear out the groups.
Lilith powers are pretty good too once you get them rolling.
>beat
Your strategies are not in question, your decision making is. It's easy to be an butthole, real winning is knowing when to show restraint. Missing Jaheira dialogue is a loss.
Not so strong woman afterall
Not as bad as that time where DAO made the only healer in the game attack you repeatedly
>consequences...for MY actions....
>...this.....cannot be....
Then actually play the consequences?
Literally nobody in the camp stops fighting you and says "wtf, you murdered like 10 dudes because some dumb ass woman started attacking you randomly, why are we helping her?"
Or hell, at least don't completely break the sequence and have random shit happen without explanation.
>started attacking you randomly
they're fighting the cult and you literally seem like a cult member to them moron
As the character, when I got attacked, my only option to to grovel and explain to some strong women as to why she shouldn't keep attacking me.
Surely NPCs can do the same?
the NPCs are role playing as moronic murderhobos, just like you
How are NPCs supposed to explain things to you when you kill them
Skyrim invented yielding 20 years ago, there's no excuse
The NPCs in question think you are an Absolute cultist so surrendering to you would be even worse than death
She's the leader of the camp and asked you to stand down, and you didn't. Okay, but that means the camp will fight you.
shouldn't the peasants be afraid of someone who just slaughtered their leader and her bodyguards?
mindless suicidal AI is peak gaming bro
>yeah I killed them all after the first dialouge prompt.
>prove my innoncence in a high tension war zone where I have the biggest indicator that I am an enemy?

unironically yes
Execute all zoomers
My Jaheira died during the assault on the moon tower and I couldn't be assed to quickload because that fight was AIDS
>"kill the three goblin leaders, they'll surely disperse without leaders!"
>goblins hang out in camp anyway and never leave
thanks larian, gotta grind another hour of battles to walk through the camp because what you said would happen didn't
What's the problem you pussy, just kill them all.
>Wowwww dude i attacked a group of people and when they died, they stayed dead. WTF? They are supposed to be essential NPCs like in a Bethesda game
I didn't attack them, they attacked me.
All she did was hold you in place with vines while interrogating you. You chose to attack her.
They don't have a choice, it's a life or death situation because you just killed their leader.
>All she did was hold you in place with vines while interrogating you.
Oh yeah, and what do you think she does if you don't sufficiently beg for mercy from her?
You fight. You chose to not play along, so this is the consequence of your choices.
>wow dude I can fight and kill people? That's not okay dude.
>hold you in place with vines
Violation of the NAP, her death was justified
You violated the NAP first by entering foreign territory. Your shins are forfeit
Not how it works, nice try
>They don't have a choice, it's a life or death situation because you just killed their leader
but it's not a life or death situation because you just killed their leader in self defense and aren't attacking them, also they can run or hide instead of trying to fight someone much stronger
They chose to fight. I think that's logical considering you just killed their leader when she asked you if you're a cultist.
it's not logical at all and not how people would ever react in real life
>no argument
ok troony
>it's not logical at all
It's logical. If someone breaks into your house and kills someone, many people would fight back.
If a woman attacked you and threatened to kill you, many people would fight back.
However, in this encounter that's the 'wrong' option.
it's more like if a gang enters your neighborhood and the gang who controls the territory attacks them and gets wiped in self defense, and then you come out trying to attack them like a moron
>it's not logical at all and not how people would ever react in real life
Try killing a security guard when he asks for your pass and carefully observe the behavior of his colleagues. You will be surprised.
>the non-fighter peasants are the "security guard colleagues" who would attempt to fight a strike team who just wiped a team of professional security guards
She never asks. She just accuses you of being one and then you can say "No please strong woman, have mercy upon me, don't show me how you don't need a man to open a jar of pickles and instead let me prostrate my pathetic maleness before you and showcase that I'm a Nice Guy who won't try to bang any of the women in the camp".
Or you can defend yourself from being attacked.
>She never asks. She just accuses you of being one
Which makes sense since her village is surrounded by people who want her dead
She's not attacking you. She's holding you in place with Vines while interrogating her. If you tell her to frick off, she will attack you. Oh well, that's the choice you made the consequence.
You don't even have to beg for mercy. You could try intimidating her, persuading her, or deceiving her. Additionally, if you helped any Harpers on the road to the village, they will vouch for you and resolve the situation
sounds like a skill issue to me
>She's not attacking you
>She's only attacking you
moronation.
>She's attacking me!
>No, she's holding you in place with vines. Then you told her to frick off, and then she attacked you
Skill issue. The game gave you 10 different options and you picked the most hostile one
I only casted 15 debuffs on you to make it easier to kill you, but DON"T YOU DARE DEFEND YOURSELF!
She's restraining you while interrogating you. You are using the logic of black people who think they should be able to fight cops
So it's not attacking someone as long as you stick to debuffs only.
If a cop handcuffs someone, is the cop attacking them? Answer carefully, black person
If the handcuffs had thorns and drained hp constantly, yes.
Entangle does not drain HP.
It's interesting how you think a village at war isn't justified in interrogating heavily armed strangers
>See heavily armed stranger
>Immediately perform an action that can be seen as aggressive.
>Die
I kneel.
It's interesting how you equate someone randomly attacking a traveler to a cop arresting a Black person.
It's interesting how you are Tyrone Dindu and don't even realize it
in this case it's more like you walked into a white neighborhood and some boomer accuses you of potentially being a criminal with no evidence, so he handcuffs you. nobody would find this acceptable, moron
I agree, fellow ally! Ahmad Arberry was just a jogger
your assessment of my character is incorrect, i am extremely racist.
You aren't, if your arguments are the exact same as libtards in the cases of Trayvon Martin, George Floyd, Ahmad Arberry, Mike Brown
except we are discussing an event in a video game, not real life stupid frick. but yes, if armed robbery showed up in a neighborhood and actually dindu, he would be right to fight back in self defense (not what happened though lol)
so you think you can go around restraining and interrogating random people and not face any consequences
>so you [strawman]
She faced consequences; you fought and killed her. You think police handcuffing someone is an "attack". Dindu nuffin
she is not the police and i am not a criminal Black person, mr strawman
>Skill Issue
>Win a fight the game hadn't even design you to fight and break the sequence of the game.
Not quite.
>fight starts if you pick options in the cutscene
>game wasnt designed for you to fight it
Are you, by any chance, mentally moronic?
>She's not attacking you
>She's only attacking you
>And if you disagree with her, she's killing you
If she's a harper defending an outpost or something, yeah. You think you can just go anywhere you please?
yes?
Virtually anybody would consider this to be an aggressive and hostile action, only in a video game are people expected to react to contrived scenarios in totally unbelievable ways.
Your guy is literally grunting in pain and looking down at thorned vines whilst the event is playing.
They really nailed the authentic D&D feel, including terrible DM
If you think it's hostile, then fight her. The game gave you that option and you took it. Now you're complaining?
go play bethesda games with essential NPCs
Maybe if you're an autist who can't pick up the obvious cinematic language that "this is an important flashy hero character with lots of dialogue" and that's not even considering her being an iconic character and also in the trailer. Braindead fools.
>how dare you roleplay instead of trope metagame
yeah if that was actually the intention, OP just sounds like a surprised idiot who completely misinterpreted the encounter
you're a seething troony
>y-y-you need to roleplay to play this game!
>n-nn not like that!
>I'm not killing you, I'm just stabbing you
Bro, you're sick in the head if you're ok with that.
>be in active warzone
>cultists swarm the region
>you are suspicious with newcomers
Holy culture war, how dares she!
imagine being a moronic polflake who didn't even play the original games and are screeching that a group of murderhobos attacks you when you kill the murderhobo in charge, who happens to be a particularly famous person amongst said murderhobos (and is also a b***h in previous games)
congratulations, you are dumber than the average twitter troony and you revel in your moronation. kindly swallow glass
you write like a transvestite who is foreign to this website
>She just accuses you of being one
And that is surprising to you when literally every tadpole homosexual on the planet - aside from your party - is unquestionably loyal to some mystery cult leader?
I refuse to people as fricking stupid as you exist.
It's astonishing how dimwitted you are.
How do you leave the house without getting yourself killed in the most moronic way?
>self defense.
you walked into the town she sheriffs armed in a scenario where everyone is on edge about the lunatic cultists. she asks you to stop and does the fantasy equivalent of trying to detain you for questioning, and you butchered her in the street. if this was a /misc/ thread you'd be spamming dindu, you moron.
I am an all powerful being coming through an area purely because it's filler content I have to go through to finish the game.
You moronic shills keep using these weird muh realism ''arguments'' when none of them apply. I am more powerful than this entire village and anything they could be dealing with. I am going to go whenever I need to go and get my exp and loot. If the NPCs want to die it's on the shitty devs.
Frick off, moron.
>I am an all powerful being
Bro you're like level 8 at best coming into Last Light. Congrats on your second feat, all-powerful being
And everything else is like level 4. I can eat everyone alive and everyone I meet would be powerless to stop me. In that moment I would be an all powerful being.
Oh, this guy got a second ability score improvement. I guess we should just open our doors to any potential cultists.
>I can rape you to death or you can let me in
GUESS THE CHOICE IS CLEAR, EVERYBODY PREPARE TO SPEND THE LAST 15 MINUTES OF YOUR LIVES HEMORRHAGING OUT OF YOUR BUTTHOLES
so this is how morons see the world, huh? LOL
>a bunch of peasants would suicide charge someone who just wiped their leader and her guards
how laritards see the world
>You moronic shills keep using these weird muh realism ''arguments''
its a role playing game you absolute autist.
Not a very good ''role'' ''playing'' ''''game''''' when it doesn't acknowledge that I could wipe out this entire village and will not be detained. I am more powerful than the village and the threat they are scared of combined.
I am not going to go from bandit camp from bandit camp slaughtering everyone who attacks me and then when entering a random village go ''oh noo 🙁 pls don't hurt me! ow ow pls don't hit me.''
You sound like you monologue before you pour water down an anthill
You put cuffs on yourself and flop on an anthill naked and roleplay as if you were captured by the ants
nobody asked you about your fetish, moron
So ypu can wipe the village, whats the fricking problem, I don't get it
He probably wants something less binary than complete surrender and mass genocide
Play the game moron
good thing theres like 5 options but youd know that if you played the fricking game
good thing there's like three other ways you can handle it that people have posted ITT that you're intentionally ignoring then, huh? :^)
I don't want to wipe out the village. The game forces me to do it if the only other option is surrendering. Surrender isn't an option, the game dev is just forcing me to wipe out a village for no reason because he can't comprehend that people aren't on the development team and haven't read all the ''cool'' lines of the character that is telling you to surrender, and can't appreciate how cool and badass this character is
The third option is not being a moron and having an attitude of cooperation with other people who just want to see the world free of the same threats you do. Understand the frame of mind other people have in this setting. Like an adult. It isn't surrender to have basic social maneuverability and de-escalation skills
like you right now?
uh... yeah. i was able to talk her down and i didn't drink her truth serum and everything turned out alright. the third option i described is the one I chose.
youre barking up the wrong tree. she's a woman and she spoke to him in a tone that didn't stroke his desperate ego, she was doomed from go.
he has a point, some strong woman b***h tries to manhandle me and I'm supposed to de-escalate like a cuck? no thanks. and every peasant who sees me obliterate the c**t should fear me
they fear you the way people fear moron strength when the sped is rampaging
>and every peasant who sees me obliterate the c**t should fear me
translation: "god i hope i look cool to those smelly peasants and everyone else whos watching, I'm so fricking desperate to feel tough that ill completely ignore my moral high ground to prove a point to no one."
translation:
>god I hope if I just do everything this woman says then I'll get Affinity Points with her and maybe she'll frick me later
So what's the moral high ground in attacking people with no ill intent visiting your village?
You're guilty until proven innocent. Don't like it? Go make your own villa-ACK
YOU HAVE
A MINDFLAYER LARVA
IN YOUR HEAD
AND THEY KNOW ABOUT IT
YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOU'RE NOT HERE TO KILL EVERYBODY
>hmm what's the best way to tell if someone is hostile or not?
>oh i know
>i'll attack them
this situation is really giving me jane pretending to kill a baby vibes
Black person nobody in the world has yet to meet someone who has the worm and isn't experiencing outright mind-forfeiting effects before you. You have to prove you are the exception to the rule.
>this guy might kill everyone in the village
>lets antagonize him and then if he resists we'll suicide charge him until there's nobody left
They were right...
nope because you reloaded like the little b***h you are.
Sheesh talk about a self fulfilling prophecy
At least Skyrim has de-escalation mechanics built in. Sure it doesn't work properly but they tried.
>At least Skyrim has de-escalation mechanics built in
Even worse. The enemies giving up was supposed to be a part of the game where you could tie them up. It would play a role in the bounty collecting system as some would ask for them be taken in alive. It got cut for time and they never bothered to patch out the surrendering and getting back up to fight.
>The enemies giving up was supposed to be a part of the game where you could tie them up
Thank goodness mods fixed that, and added some extra
>Somebody modded in that you can tie up enemies.
>Oh, so you can tie them up for a modded bounty system, right?
>.....
>You tie them up for the bounty system, right?
see
you have gas leaks in your homes
gangs of people with tadpoles EXACTLY like the player character are going around killing people. it would be not just immoral but moronic for her to not at bare minimum sequester and question you at the gate.
wtf is a tadpole? some twitter nu-speak?
play the fricking game you moron
whatever you say, tadpoles (wtf that even means)
>I don't know the bare basics of the game I am trying to shitpost about but I HAVE to shitpost about the hot new thing
if mods did their job, you would be banned from living
>they're literally just arguing about something they literally know nothing about
Usually moron anons mask their intent better this this my guy
You'd understand if you had any negotation skills.
There's no village and there are no peasants.
OP walked into a small fortified outpost barely holding on in cursed land. 90% of the inhabitants are soldier or cop equivalents.
OP is infected and there's a local cult using infected people as infiltrators. The local old lady identifies OP as infected.
OP could have:
>demonstrated their power
>explained themselves
>done multiple other things
instead they just sperged out and are now making excuses like a Black person.
The only correct response is killing the b***h for her disrespectful use of force, and there should be an option to then speak to the lower ranks who just shat their pants and tell them to think twice next time before making a woman their leader
You could respond to the real situation instead of OP's schizophrenia.
Congrats you just submitted to that anon, little b***h boy
t. moron
It's simple. Don't attack me. If you try to kill me I will fight back.
It's not too much to ask to not be attacked. You run into thousands of NPCs in these games and only one decides that it will try to arrest you and kill you if you refuse. At that point you are no different from a random bandit that runs up to you and demands your money or you life.
>You run into thousands of NPCs in these games and only one decides that it will try to arrest you and kill you if you refuse
There are guard NPCs in every fricking zone that do exactly this
YOU are the random bandit in this instance, anon. People in this world are implied to have lives and not always know who the frick you are, especially if you've never met. If you helped the tieflings one of the kids will literally walk up and make her feel like an extreme b***h for threatening the savior of the grove.
you never have to do that and your insistence that its a binary interaction makes me think you're just parroting the negative opinions in this thread because you'll jump at any opportunity to hate a woman as revenge for your 20 year dry spell.
Stop playing on story-mode.
In reality a sheriff would speak to you before attempting to forcibly detain you, moron
>All she did was hold you in place with vines while interrogating you. You chose to attack her.
Not necessarily. I did choose to struggle out of the vines ... Thats a defensive action, not an offensive one (unlike attacking them)
>cop points gun at you
>dont move
>you do stupid shit
>get shot
Such is life in america
she's not a cop nor is faerûn that shithole
your analogy lacks severely, it should be more like
>disguised copper tries to headlock you
>you dont let him
> him and his 20 buddies draw their weapons and shoot you like a shitbull
Was I meant to just murder all the goblins in the camp without talking to them? They weren't hostile for whatever reason so I just set up for one turn wipes where I could. Frick goblins.
>Was I meant to just murder all the goblins in the camp without talking to them?
No. You're free to talk to them, kill them, spare them, whatever. There's no "meant to" in this part.
>meant to
some of you are so utterly helpless it must be exhausting
keep up the good work chuddy
>put a dumb roastie in her place
>somehow that's a bad thing
I don't see a problem?
>enter Last Light with a skeleton summon
>NPCs freak out over it
>make the skeleton run outside beyond the protection field
>later on find out half of the NPCs + vendor at the gate chased after the skeleton and died from the curse
lol, lmao even
Realistically, most people especially peasants and ordinary townsfolk have an amazingly strong sense of self preservation and would try to negotiate or even grovel long LONG before fighting to the death against an unknown assailant. Or just outright flee.
However it's easier just to set peasant faction to 'hostile' with the same braindead attack AI that rats, wolves and greater abominations use and let it all play out. You already bought the game anyway and fell for the hype, who cares if it falls apart the moment you diverge from the dungeonmaster's railroad.
So is this another one of those games where being evil makes you miss out on 80% of the game's content?
I keep hearing people talking about how Minthara doesn't even have any story relevance past Act 1 and has no additional dialogue or quests or anything.
Is that true? I want to do an evil playthrough but it sounds like it just won't be fulfilling at all.
>being evil makes you miss out on 80% of the game's content?
Yep. Larianshills fooled everyone again.
Minthara is bugged currently, her quest and romance flags dont trigger, and even after siding with her in act 1, fricking her and saving her from total erasure her relationship meter still starts in red. She has lines and dialogue past act 1 and recent update fixed some stuff for act 3, but she is still mostly a hireling with ocasional input.
I'm playing with Minthara currently and she talks quite a lot actually, maybe because I play a drow
>So is this another one of those games where being evil makes you miss out on 80% of the game's content?
depends
moron murderhobos will because they'll kill questgivers
the dark urge (a unique origin) actually causes you to miss out for not killing specific people because you get rewards (it has unique cutscenes depending on if you do go full murder though)
>>Why are there consequences for my choices? I want to get into the gith execution device and nothing to happen
i saw that moron too
as if the game didn't explicitly say the shit was gonna cause permanent damage
I fully understand why Bethesda games are so on-rails with essential NPCs now
>Why are there consequences for my choices? I want to kill people and nothing to happen
>Why are there consequences for my choices? I want to get into the gith execution device and nothing to happen
>Why are there consequences for my choices? I want the hag to rip out my eyeball and have nothing happen
>Why are there consequences for my choices? I want Volo to dig out my eyeball and have nothing happen
Don't both of the eye gougings lead to substantial buffs
Sounds more like the problem here is they didn't actually want to include proper consequences so they just cut corners hard and made everyone death-by-playercharacter
>*kills npcs*
>"Wow I can't believe the game lets me kill npcs 0/10!"
>make npcs suicidal morons
>wtf anon you are dumb how could you just kill them all
>I want to get into the gith execution device and nothing to happen
i did that and nothing happened
skill issue
You get a permanent debuff from it
I let the frog go first and she didn't
she's more manly than you
So what are the recommended lvls for every act?
Shit-tier game. I always said so but none of you were listening.
how come this game has so many women in positions of authority?
that's why i play crpg on the easiest difficulty
I can't decide between fighter or ranger. Please choose for me. I plan on being an evil moron who kills pretty much everyone when I can reasonably get away with it, not unlike this thread, if that matters.
Fighter gets a button to kill shit twice as hard for a turn if it helps
They're pretty easy to mix and match too if you wanted just take one to at least 5 before you start taking levels in the other so you can get extra attack
Fighter and barbarian are the certified unga bunga choices
>Wow the game lets me kill NPCs I don't like? Frick this shit dude. I wanted to kill them but not ACTUALLY kill them. They should be essential NPCs
>npcs can decide to hold you down and interrogate you but you can't do the same to them
hm
Lol. Is this the kind of based option to not have progressive woke elements in your play through? Right, this game totally ain’t woke. Hahahahahaha
>attacking a strong woman
how dare you
You can't flag quests with Speak with Dead, right?
I think that'd be my ideal evil playthrough. Just plowing through towns killing everyone but using Speak with Dead to flag quests and get insight about the world. I'm assuming that wouldn't work as I doubt they wrote that much dialogue for dead people. Seems the game is really just expecting you to use it on specific corpses like when you encounter Scratch.
The main issue is most corpses won't talk to you if you're the one who killed them, but apparently disguising yourself and then speaking with dead works
You can't do quests with them, no. Also Speak with the Dead only works once per corpse, only for 5 questions, most corpses don't have any dialogue, and most importantly, corpses don't speak with their killer so you need to use a disguise spell.
This seems like something a mod might fix, but most of the mods so far just seem like cosmetic mods or mods to make simple spells do more damage.
You can flag quests and even progress them with SwD but there are a handful of loose rules you need to follow to get it to work
>If you kill someone in a way that would heavily disfigure them (acid, fire or dismemberment) you won't be able to talk to the corpse since it's hard to the to talk if they are missing a head lips or have had their faces turned into molten cheese
>Some corpses (but not all) will refuse to talk to you if you are their killer so you'll need to use "Disguise Self" before or after killing them to get them to talk or use another character to talk to them
>The creature you are trying to talk to needs to have an int score of at least 6 which rules out 99% of monsters and animals
>Magical creatures are immune to SwD, which means that you can't use it on ghosts or pixies for example even though their stats checks out
>Most generic NPCs will never talk to you since they don't have anything to say but these can be safely ignored anyway
>You have 5 questions and one attempt per corpse, if you fail to get the info you need/want before you reach these limits your SOL
All of this information is in the game but I don't blame anyone for not finding it since it's buried under multiple uses of inspect (T) and expanded info (ALT) along with being written as mostly flavour text (the grey text that is marked with "-")
>If you kill someone in a way that would heavily disfigure them (acid, fire or dismemberment) you won't be able to talk to the corpse since it's hard to the to talk if they are missing a head lips or have had their faces turned into molten cheese
That is a moronic bit of realism that really shouldn't matter when you use fricking magic to talk to a corpse.
Yeah I thought Speak with Dead was basically communing with their spirit, that rule makes it sound more like a form of necromancy and you're literally reanimating the corpse for a short interrogation.
You know what.
You guys are right. It is well written.
It is a perfectly accurate representation of what happens when a man defends himself from being attacked by a woman.
Despite being the defender, people will accuse you of being the attack.
Despite the woman clearly being at fault, random people will fight to the death to defend her honour.
The sequence of events that follow after defending yourself will not make sense. Will appear entirely out of order and seem completely contrived.
It is a Masterstroke of Larian's writing, shows a clear microcosm of the socio-patriarchal issues within society.
And for that, I applaud them.
Is it difficult to type with fat incel sausage fingers?
You are black
>the cop handcuffed me, I gotta fight back
>le cop analogy
it's more like if a random woman tries to forcibly restrain you because you entered her neighborhood
They are a village at war. It is normal for them to control their borders.
so you enter a neighborhood during a gang war and some random woman tries to forcibly restrain you
Yes, that's exactly what happened. So you can either try to defuse the situation, or you can escalate and face the consequences. Working as intended.
it's actually more like if a random woman tries to forcibly restrain you because you are black and entered her neighborhood which has been under siege by black people
play the game first moron
so a random woman is gonna forcibly restrain me because of my skin color and I'm supposed to not defend myself? dumb troony
if you're a Black person acting like all of the other Black folk then sure, attack her. If not, you might want to explain your presence there
fricking moron
>a random woman is trying to forcibly restrain me out of nowhere, I better grovel and explain myself
cuck homosexual
You don't have to grovel, you can intimidate her or deceive her or persuade her. But you ignored all those dialogue choices because
>ayo I dindu nuffin, ACAB
correct, I literally didn't do anything and if some random b***h attacks me I will attack her back in self defense, you simp homosexual
You crossed their borders, and then killed someone when they tried to stop you
>ayo borders aren't real, we are all one human race
You are the most leftist poster on Ganker today

get your homosexual ass out of here
hey thats rpg for you dont try to do every quest on first run it was never idea of real rpgs.
There are paranoid unreasonable people in real life too
The only problem with this scenario is how lazy they handled the non-bootlicker route
Reload. Beg. Get what you want. Then do what you want
>some belligerent c**t starts a fight
>simps appear out of the woodwork to defend you m'lady
Realistic encounters
>armed organization running a camp sheltering refugees
>effectively under siege by a shadow curse and mind controlled cultists
Did you think all the barricades and defensive emplacements were decorative? Do you typically expect to walk through armed checkpoints unimpeded? Nevermind that you're carrying the same brain worm as their sworn enemies.
I knew this was the case when no one on israelitetube dared to touch the woke aspects of this modern propaganda piece dubbed entertainment.
>white man gets treated like black men get treated every single day in this country
>is furious about it
Doesn't feel great, does it? Really makes you think, huh.
Consider:
These violence-prone heavyhanded paranoiacs have likely already murdered numerous innocent travellers who were not as strong as OP, therefore they are evil and slaughtering the entire village was good.
The camp is full of innocent travelers that arrived mere days before you
Did they throw in their lot and attack too? Then they're double evil.
I suppose they should have sat idly by and prayed that the people slaughtering their protectors are good guys
They approached a military checkpoint and let themself be checked for tadpoles. Thus no one got killed. Its that simple.
One mans innocent traveler is another mans cultist
Tyr judges all
actually they hadn't been murdering innocents, they had been only attacking cultists (who kidnap people and brainwash them)
the first time you even see members of their group is when they ambush some of the cultists, where you can either help the cultists (the first interaction you have with this specific group is a goblin getting his pet to run into the cursed-shadowy-mist for his amusement) the harpers (the group who ambushed them)
if you side with the harpers they straight up tell you to go to their camp
>ayo frick borders, I should be able to enter the village if I want
>ayo frick the cops, if you restrain me I will kill you
>ayo you're fighting back? i'll kill you but then you better still give me your quests
You don't understand. He couldn't breathe which has nothing to do with the fact that he had ingested wyvern poison beforehand.
Tell me anons, what are your must have worm powers? For me its favorable beginnings and luck of the far realms, seems like must have on everyone
>cucking your own brain
All my worms were put into Astarion. I also put him in the githyanki device. I have since unlocked every single power on him as well as ascended him and he has become a literal god.
>giving in to the Cthulhus
Frick you and frick your brain worms
Come on anon, whats a few worms in your brain for the power to crit on command
im not taking the wormpill this playthrough, but i'd go for the one that gives the free crit for my paladin
the evil playthrough will be a sorcerer or wizard so i'll probably check out the ones like the concentration one

Zero options to tell them to chill out and just let me pass
I will not roleplay as a cuck
that's literally how it works in real life though.
>sir you aren't allowed to bring your gun into the airport
>LET ME DO A SPEECH CHECK! WHY IS THE AIRPORT AGGROING ME
You're not going to speak to the head of a military organization at the airport.
>sir you aren't allowed to bring that into the White House
it's the same thing
If I could single handedly kill every secret service agent and the military routinely lost engagements to me and my handful of mooks, the terms for a conversation are going to be radically different than a generic human going into an airport to travel. Especially if I've been invited to attend an audience with the big leader man.
moronic sub-human going to compare real life to post-apocalyptic and fantasy games.
Everyone has a gun in Fallout, I will go wherever I want with a gun. I can put my guns away and everyone in this building with my bear hands, I will not give my fricking BB gun to you.
I am entering a fantasy village carrying a shitty piece of metal on my back. I am not giving it up, I am not bowing down.
If you are going to do a forced section where I am disarmed just do it and don't ask me to give input because I will not roleplay a cuck.
>they asked me to give up my weapons and i refused. now they are attacking me. how could this happen?
>I am entering a fantasy village carrying a shitty piece of metal on my back. I am not giving it up, I am not bowing down.
Nobody asks you to do either of those things, you merely have to offer an explanation that isn't immediate violence and the whole area bends over backwards for you. Did anyone even play the game?
>Did anyone even play the game?
homie according to steam only 21% of people even left act 1
literally me
I'm too fricking busy and I've been able to play enough to reach the end of the act, but I still haven't left on the mountain pass or underdark yet.
Yeah it's evident by the number of people replying as if being disarmed is the course of events. I can't even think of a sequence aside from agreeing to go to jail that takes your weapons from you, and I'm almost done with the game.
The game even remarks on this at one point. Lae'zel mentioned how the creche is supposed to disarm you on entry but she's grateful they didn't. It's amusing how disingenuous homosexuals are so easy to spot regarding this game.
hopefully those 79% refunded
>Did anyone even play the game?
No. Almost all complaints I've seen in these threads have been from people that haven't played the game and it's all misinformation.
There's a really dangerous anti-BG3 campaign going on here and I wish more people would start calling these people out.
>dangerous

moronic.
You could've just said no

>I am moronic and angry about it
you got what you fricking deserved, moron
can you just take everything you want off the vendors now that they're dead? sounds pretty based to me.
When you kill a vendor, their wares magically disappear.
that's moronic
Dont you still have most of it in chests nearby?
Dead vendors usually just have the handful of best unique items

Is Jaheera a fricking moron or what?
Always was. This was the crazy lady who immediately went for Bhaalspawn dick after her husband was murdered and despite having been friends with his mother so kinda ara ara there.
I don't know who any of those people are but I'll take your word for it
Why the frick did you kill Jaheira, you goddamn homosexual?
Why do people try to be good? And not roleplay and enjoy how it goes? If you wouldn't "submit" to them, why do you care about the quests they were going to give? There is 1 btw, and its the one you already have, better version of shadow curse immunity can be recieved 10 minutes after this town, and you never go back to it even if you comply.
What is it with cucked eurodevs and punishing you for defending yourself?
submit to the power of the state chud
I can't imagine living a life so fragile that being told to do something by a woman IN A VIDEO GAME makes you lose your mind. What happened to white men?

not like you could rescue the harpers 3 seconds to the right of the town and their word gets you in, not like you can tell jaheira you're not evil and don't want to fight them and get in, no its the games fault not your own moron
>tfw you witness Tavs moronation first hand
they get used to it
>tfw you witness Tavs moronation first hand
you just need to choose the right woman
I think ya'll Black folk are missing the point.
The issue is more that the non-simp path is just completely absent and the events that happen literally don't make sense.
>rip out the vines with pure strength
>intimidate her into backing down
>detect and refuse her truth serum
>continue on with your quest
It's not hard
the real chad move is to detect it, drink it on purpose after letting her know YOU know, and then willpowering the answer that the tadpole does nothing to you.
anyone who genuinely got butthurt over this would hide their bite in the zombie apocalypse
>non-simp path
you literally didn't play the game
It is not though? You can keep being secretive and either a child tiefling(if you saved tieflings in act 1), harpers(if you saved them previously) or guy with wings(true souls infiltrator) will stand by your side to let you in. You can also immediately stitch on him to get in. Or do intimidation check. This is the same fricking problem those "people" had 2 days ago with gale "forcing" them to have gay sex, after they willingly pressed "yes, lets go practice magic somewhere more intimate" prompt
But none of these are a sensible response towards somebody attacking you.
If you have no uderstanding of situation escalation they arent, of course. Root does not prevent you from attacking or casting spells, just from moving, and there are 3 people behind you to free you from them
>after they willingly pressed "yes, lets go practice magic somewhere more intimate" prompt
Why do I keep seeing this?
>Uh dude asking to be taught magic is clearly inviting him to jam his dick in your ass
How? Where do you live that that is even remotely the same thing?
>A man is offering to show me his magic trick.
>In private.
>Yeah nothing gay about that.
How many dicks "accidently" went up your ass anon?
>Want to learn cool magic shit in a world filled with cool magic shit
>This means you want to gargle balls
Again, how? Is this some in-world innuendo I didn't read in some lore shit?
>"visit me in private for a magic trick"
>yeah i'll just trust this fricking wizard not to hypnotize me or do any weird shit
seduction is a best case scenario there
>he asks to teach you magic
>after you pull off prestidigitation, the narrator says explicitly this could be an intimate moment
>you can either embrace this, or say you don't want to be that close to Gale
>somehow picking to make it more intimate is the games fault
The entire invitation is extremely blatant and only happens if previous dialogue enables it.
I'm not sure what kind of moron you need to be to miss the meaning behind "private lesson in an intimate location".
Reminds me of the great [Glass Him] debacle. People are fricking idiots.
That happened to me. I was legitimately trying to buy the dude a beer, we'd just had a long and personal conversation and he seemed like he was about to give me some important info or admit to something, when wolfman just sperged out and attacked him. I'd never heard that slang "glass him" before
This is why there are articles about this easy fricking game saying it is too hard. This why anyone ever thought that puzzle in the beginning of Bioshock Infinite was acceptable. Gaming is crawling with millions of Jerry's Kids

there aren't actually people who believe this are there? I mean I'm not saying you should hate or attack women, but good lord dude
All of civilization is built off this principle
Granted it used to be more certain back in the day because men would simply take it
I have a girlfriend and defending women has gotten me infinitely more sex than defending right wing ideals in front of her has gotten (which is zero sex).
>There aren't actually people who believe this are there
This behavior is completely logical. A male human can impregnate hundreds of women in 9 months. A woman can only bear 1. This causes men to jump at ANY chance of pussy even with today's contraception, because that's just how our brains work. Same with women being extremely picky and annoying about some random bullshit, they need to make sure you have good genes and won't leave them
>This behavior is completely logical
bro
defending women in internet arguments with the expectation of reward sex is peak beta virgin behavior. it's a precursor to incel behavior after the dude snaps once he realizes it won't get him any.
However you shape it, even a non existent chance for a crumb of pussy could get your bloodline extended, as our brain understands it, which is the most important part of our evolution.
>Precursos to the incel behavior
Oh, you appear to be a woman or a troony. I require a written apology for wasting my time.
>possibly get sex
This moronic virgin doesn't know.
A lot of simps believe this bullshit, but they also deny it because they don't want to admit they're slaves who are being used like pawns.
You're obviously a woman.
did you cry about how Jahiera acted back in 2000, or were you not born yet as I suspect?
So because it's an older character, you're fine with humiliating your own character and licking her fricking feet, with no other option to progress?
>uh, it's her character to be an aggressive warmongering b***h
Ok, fine, but a ROLE PLAYING GAME should accept that your character might not just SUBMIT blindly to this random person you just met
>you're fine with humiliating your own character and licking her fricking feet, with no other option to progress?
skill issue
as I said here
you're weak and pathetic. I am strong and powerful, and this carries over to our respective avatars in games, chinlet.
I think you responded to the wrong post.
No, I think you just can't fricking read which is the issue you're having in the game too, moron.
I talked about how the roleplaying game skipped over this very obvious potential outcome
you said...make a stronger character? lol wut
Did it? You're roleplaying a volatile moron and it reacted accordingly by mercifully trying to put you down.
>if you don't submit to random strangers being aggressive towards you then you're a volatile moron
How's the vasectomy treating you?
You have an unhealthy fixation with the concept of submission. I'm sorry the fantasy hag got under your skin. What's a better game that can massage such a fragile ego?
see
theres nothing more pathetic than a man with a chip on his shoulder.
I will break it down for you since you are apparently weak in the game, weak IRL, and weak of mind.
You said
>you're fine with humiliating your own character and licking her fricking feet, with no other option to progress?
and I linked what happened to ME, which clearly shows you don't have to do that. You then cannot read, and thought it was a response to a different post.
All the while the character in question is acting exactly like the same character she was 23 years ago in a game you clearly didn't play
lmao
lol even
I played the original Baldur's Gate, that's it. I don't remember this b***h. and what the frick are you even talking about?
if you enjoy playing video games to be submissive, there's a whole world of porn games calling your name
So what games let me roleplay as a dominant leather daddy like you?
>I uh..only....uh.. played the first one
Good thing she was in that one too huh you lying fricking moron
lmao BUSTED
it was 15 years ago anon, the only names I remember are Minsk, Imoen, and Jaheiera
>the only names I remember are Minsk, Imoen, and the person we are talking about that is the SAME EXACT PERSON in the village I am mad at with the same name
bro, you got caught. You're a zoomer, you were LARPing, and it's just sad now.
Evidently it is
>mass reply moron
>no answer
thought so, GG EZ
>and content is lost.
stop being a moronic fomo b***h
I liked sneaking around the evil castle in chapter 2 trying to kill as many people as possible without getting spotted. I pushed a lot of people off buildings
Black person behavior
yeah nice woke narrative, because women would never relent against a superior man who would clearly kill them . and what a shit narrative where the entire town is against you for defending yourself against an attacker. some bethesda reputation shit over here
after listening to the glowing praise and proclaimations of this being the best game of the century if basic shit like self defense isnt calculated, that makes this worse than fricking cyberpunk for AI
One day AI technology will make every NPC act realistically and run away or try to negotiate peace and you'll miss these halcyon days of badly programmed AI that mindlessly suicide waves against you
AI is so badly neutered this is going to be just fricking terrible. You will never get any characters with nuance or flaws ever, and you'll get bad guys who will lecture you if you call them a Black person.
oblivion had decent ai for a open world
>someone attacks you
>if people like you they come to your aid
>wizard gets involved and hits friendlies with fireball
>suddenly turns into a mad free-for-all
the hero of kvatch!
>Remember the days when things were souless? Wait until they're even more souless, then you'll be sorry!
m8 they will do everything they can to lobotomize AI so it doesn't end up "problematic". It's hilarious how it's progressed from "AI will kill everyone" when I was a kid to "AI will be racist" as the big horror scenario.
good
they see player metrics you know
are there any helmets that don't look like shit in this game?
>Kill everyone in town because they were stupid and you could kill them
I mean, yeah
This reminds me of Anders in Dragon Age 2 when he flirts with you and to turn him down makes him dislike you. Welcome to life, sometimes there are no good answers. Maybe they thought you were a bandit, who knows? Shit happens.
I appreciate OP for at least taking the effort to make this CW thread vidya-related, glancing at the catalog thats becoming a rarity
>didn't break the vines
>didnt intimidate jahera
Really, stengthlet?
>anon enters a besieged outpost
>gets identified as infected by a grandma
>spergs out and kills everyone
>oh no, muh content, why didn't the game railroad me, why do was I allowed to suffer the consequences of my idiocy
>tranon troons out
>kills himself
everyone knows the true chad way is to do all their quests, get to the point of no return, THEN wipe out the town and the tower.
I would have killed her too, then found another strong woman to kill and then take their heads and shove them up each others pussies.
>makes decision
>has to deal with the consequences
>HOW CAN THIS BE HAPPENING
>women wears skimpy clothes
>gets raped
>HOW CAN THIS HAPPENING
>OP makes thread about getting attacked by mindless cultists
>exact same thing happens in his thread
Next fricking level
>anime reaction moron can't read
tragic
>legitmate anons hold onto strong ideals like the right to defend yourself and not roleplaying as a cuck
>paid shills do their best mental gymnastics to make them look bad
>"you're roleplaying wrong you're a murderhobo if you kill in self-defense"
>"mmuh muh MUH ActioNS HaVe CONSEquennces" while ignoring that the player is inflicting a consequence onto the NPC's action
Pathetic
>it's paid shills
>the PAID SHILLS are attacking me, it's not that I'm a complete moron
imagine losing an online debate to a bunch of pajeets. Congrats on owning yourself, moron
>defending myself from a bunch of vines and mean words involves killing everyone
the CIA will be in contact with you shortly
>OP acts like a moronic That Guy
>while playing on the lowest difficulty
>lies about it (or just shows his power level?)
>shocked when others call him a moron
>you're moronic for defending yourself
>defending yourself
Repeating this does not make it less moronic.
>is a transvestite
>hates Ganker
>still comes here with HIS fellow discord trannies just to stir shit up and play israeli subversion games
Double-tongued word twisting Fricks like you need to die
leave you mentally ill moron. Containment is there for a reason.
hush hush you little estrogen junky
hey so I know you have your fetish and all but no matter how much you wish it I will never be a woman, and I will always be a man.
And I'm not interested in other dudes. Sorry.
Here comes the israeli bullshit again
I can play like this too!
Why are you so obsessed with chuds?
What's a chud, moron? I don't go on Twitter, oh, I'm sorry, X.
Misc posters literally are just operating on their brain stems alone. "I'm a guy and I like women" is apparently now part of the great israeli plan?
>I'm a guy
you can't be considered that with 300ng/dl testosterone, anon
you have not single drop of testosterone and you like women who dominate you /beat you black and blue/frick other guys in front of you. You defend trannies and similar beings.
You come here to defend this game who lets you live out your fetish fantasy's.
I would 100% kill you and genocide your village
Calm down there Sepiroth, I'd work on your english before you commit to killing me with your plastic katana.
>you have not single drop of testosterone and you like women who dominate you /beat you black and blue/frick other guys in front of you. You defend trannies and similar beings. You come here to defend this game who lets you live out your fetish fantasy's.I would 100% kill you and genocide your village
The entire thread was was it for this holy shit I'm dying
>comes here with HIS fellow discord trannies
Why are you always in such a hurry to out yourself?
I bet even you dont know what your point here is.
>and play israeli subversion games
yo is this game on PC that sounds like a good vidya
you are playing it right now at this moment
Ok I take it back this game sucks it's just arguing with some moron
>arguing
Only newbies and tourists do this. Everyone else here play this game. Or watch other "((people))" play
Ah yes, Ganker never had any arguments until the tourists came...curse them
im not talking about Ganker
Its the whole damn website.
Look at any catalog and tell me this site is about arguing, let alone arguing in good faith
Ah yes, Ganker never had any arguments until the tourists came...curse them
this gif has been around for years and still hasn't been converted into a webm, which it desperately needs. There's so many details and text boxes.
I think they fact you assume OP is playing on the lowest difficult because they took the choice you didn't and won says a lot about how mad you are.
I think you're an idiot.
I find the fact that you lived this long both surprising and disappointing.
If you're a spice, you'd be flour.
If you were a book, you'd be two books.
>walk into bar
>bouncer puts his hand on my shoulder
>asks for ID
>stab him and everyone in the bar to death
Why does the world only offer me the choice to submit or kill?
That sounds fun as frick. What are you complaining about?
>go to the store
>Wonderbread is out
>ask clerk if they have more Wonderbread
>cleric says no, next shipment is tomorrow
>break the clerk's neck and stab 3 old ladies on my exfiltration from the bakery isle
Imagine not defending your RIGHTS, cucks
>cleric says no and tries to forcibly detain you
>blast him with a shotgun
>the old ladies see it and try to grab your shotgun
>cleric
We need separation of church and store
>gf watches as i play
>been generally neutral good throughout my playthrough
>if i do anything "evil" she gets visibly upset
>she legitimately got up and left the room when i allowed astarion to ascend
this b***h is going to lose her mind on my next play through
>game is very woke
>metacritic gamer score: over 9
how did they do it with this garbage tier writing?
Dude. Skyrim got GOTY. It's a fricking low bar with these people. Flashing lights and some loud orchestral music will make them think they stepped into an IMAX.
but usually gamers don't give woke stuff high score. I smell some frickery
>anon is shocked online scores can be skewed.
I swear to god, you all Black folk will enter act 3 and mentally break 30 minutes in from the lack of situational awareness.
And when that happens I will come here and make a thread about it and you will reply 100 times
I will not play this shitty woke trash zoophile game
nobody asked 😀
Based. If anyone is automatically hostile, fricking kill them.
Anybody else nowhere near this encounter yet and just going off of what information you can glean from the greentexts? I find discussion more fun this way.
I've never played a single videogame in my entire life, I'm having way more fun than even you
yeah I'm sure seeing your uncle lit on fire by the cartel was real fun, Pablo
I have 50 more uncles gringo
Me but with minthara romance in act 3 in /bgg/
So the people hating on this game are literal morons apparently
So can you actually have sex in this game? Seems pretty based to me.
Why are people saying it's woke???
Yes.
They have not played the game, and anything that doesn't 100% align with their worldviews is instantly woke, there is no nuance beyond that.
Not only sex, anon
Did none of you help out the thiefling kids? Mol will vouch for you in this scene and Jaheira let's you go and everything's peachy
The only "help" a thiefling deserves is helping them go back to the lower planes.
Why the frick would you help a bunch of kids that steal from you?
>I would 100% kill you and genocide your village you have not single drop of testosterone and you like women who dominate you /beat you black and blue/frick other guys in front of you. You defend trannies and similar beings.
he cute
