She is a miracle of the universe and the perfect wife.
I'm sure it's just a coincidence they didn't release the male/female player devide or what the average character for each race looked like right... right?
Most people played Half-elves, Elves and Humans it's pretty standard
She looks kind of like Asuka with that expression.
>knife ears
>perfect
I wish games would put more effort into making delicious armpits. The foot gays get their fetish bait in nearly every game but us real men of passion get shoot down by the uneducated masses. It's just not fair
I mean, nips do it all the fricking time dude
>Foot gays get their fetish bait in nearly every game
Oh please, vidya feet are fricking awful and 90% of them look like legos glued together.
>giving her that generic zoomer bawd egirl face
I hate it, I unironically prefer the original face some tbh big cute and realistic about it.
And that's why we keep having ugly women in video games
Kys seriously
No you
You want every girl to have the face of a child for some reason, instead of more developed features.
>dating a woman past the age of 25
when things expire, you throw them out.
bro the projection, just say you like uggos
cuck
I agree but don't know why. Why does that face makes us think of egirls and streamers?
What is this feeling?
self loathing
Found the OF hookerino.
Leave you frickin gays
dont you have a tiktok to catch up on
Attraction to Amouranth still baffles me
She's bogged as hell, with a shapeless body and has the cold dead eyes of a lizard.
If that thing came near my house I'd shoot it
She looks cute on that pic
>getting rid of the scar
despicable, have a nice day
NAME.

>modded Shadowheart
You don't deserve her.
That's why he's with modded Shadowheart instead
AWOOOOOOOGA
this is a child

Is there no Asian girl romance option?
no but there's a katana imitation
heh
Let me guess, this is totally proof that the game isn't woke, or better yet, that it's anti-woke, right?
Oh you can interpret it whichever way you want my brave culture warrior
If you want it to be wokeshit, you can point out rightly that straight men should have more than one good romance option (they have her, a muscle freak and an ugly green yoda)
Or if you want it to be the opposite, you can latch onto the evidence that people massively prefer the obvious option for heteros as a "win"
I interpret it in the same way I interpret most people playing human/half elf.
Most people are indeed fricking boring and Larian was 100% on the money with that character creator message that spawned YEARS of cope from this site.
The reason people got mad at Larian for that was that they implied being NORMAL is a moral failure somehow.
Normal people want normal characters who are same sex as themselves (98% of RPG players are male, just to remind you), heteros and get the conventionally attractive girl.
It didn't imply that and I'm sure perpetual victimhood is what normal people feel.
>It didn't imply that
It absolutely did, and you're just wilfully obtuse because acknowledging your own side's wrongdoing would be ceding ground in the culture war.
It made fun of people for making a boring character and you took it as an attack on straight white relationships.
You are a fricking idiot and again want to be a victim.
>Humans are boring
The mind of a homosexual never ceases to maze me
You can bang a hot demon lady aswell.
>pre-seething
incredible
Of course it's woke. Otherwise it wouldn't be so good or popular.
Hello, troonyjerk redditroon
I welcome you to the new reality. Go woke or go broke 🙂
I'm giving you a reddit gold for that post, troonyjerk sister
Getting restless, /misc/troon?
No, it just means the 7-men cuck squad is gonna be seething at players, again.
Is this real? You can't fool gamers silly devs.
Go become trannies somewhere else.
it's neither you schizo moron it's a fun rpg with more depth than *insert your favorite game* now go outside
>more depth
My favorite game is Dominions 5 though
Who cares? It shows the average gamer still prefers attractive ACTUAL women and not fugly troonys which we already knew but whatever .
Seethe more, Farquaad
obsessed
Awww he's defending his boyfriend 🙂
Is the game worth pirating if I want to romance the drow mommy?
Is she best girl? Or is this like Mass Effect where even though there's clearly better choices, people go for the obvious choice the devs want you to go for first?
She's the best if only for the fact the other girls are fricking dogshit.
She's the best because she's the cutest.
Shes the best in every way, personality, looks, and questline
She's the best but let's be real here, the other options are really bad, like didn't even try bad
Like I genuinely don't understand why Lae'zel is even a romance option when she's so fricking ugly realistically no one will pick her
At least Karlach appeals to people who have a fetish for girls who are a head taller than them, and have bigger muscles and penis than them
>people who have a fetish for girls who are a head taller than them
I'm 6'5 and would love a nice, toned amazon that has a nice face and is taller than me, but that's like 0.1% of the population.
I've been dicking down the frog girl with no regrets. Monstergirl enjoyers WW@
I wish this qt was a romance
Karlach are for people who don't "mind" or care about the fantasy element all that much. Compare Wyll's dialogue, demeanor and writing to Karlach. It's like night and day. A "modern" character speaking with one more eloquent. Also, frick, I've re-rolled like 5 times before even finishing Act 1 and have gone Monk each and every time and Karlach shitting on my damage output is why oftentime she's in my party next to Lae'Zel helping me frick shit up on the frontline. And by helping me I mean jumping way farther than me, running far farther than me and killing people by throwing the bodies of their dead at them which never fricking gets old goddamn.
>have gone Monk each and every time and Karlach shitting on my damage output
Str monk shits out damage with tavern brawler
I. Love. Throwing shit. Gave Tavern Brawler to Karlach and my Monk and holy frick man it's great when it hits. It really is a thrill to lob big ass Battle Axes or enchanted weapons I withhold from Gale across the fricking field and score kills. Hell sometimes I make Karlach throw her own equipped weapon and equip something else in her inventory and fight her way to picking her better shit up again. I can play moronic since I'll never touch Tactician. Feels good.
you should grab the returning pike from the goblin merchant in act one
>Go fighter
>Get eld knight at 3
>Your weapon now returns to you
Much more fun, and more feats to buff all your throwing needs.
>I can play moronic since I'll never touch Tactician. Feels good.
With enough strength Karlach can throw anything on anything to anywhere. When the conditions permit i don't think theirs a much stronger playstyle and thats excluding chasm deaths.
Karlach’s gratuitous swearing is really off putting and feels somehow anachronistic in a fantasy setting. Having said that I would like her to sit on my face.
Lae is the best personality wise. But god damn ugly nose. Minthra is completely undercooked and has basically no dialogue post moonrise. Not even sure if you can actually romance her past the initial hookup after the camp slaughter.
>Minthra is completely undercooked and has basically no dialogue post moonrise.
Yeah have LZ and Shadowheart in your active party at all times feels the most "canon"/complete anyway since both of them drive the plot forward and will often have scenes where they're bouncing off of one another and have a revelation while Gale stares off into the distance thinking about dicks or Wyll T-poses in a bush.
They should have given her the amazon body type. Hope those homosexual modders get off their asses making more troony penis options and remedy this soon.
She really doesn't appeal to a single person, it's nuts. You have to go the evil route to recruit her (mild spoilers for her recruiting) but then she goes full on paladin mode, which is completely at odds with the one group that would have liked her, since they're forced to kill her anyway
Your choices are
>one normal looking girl
>a demon girl who is manly
>a frog girl who is manly
>four normal looking dudes
Gee I wonder who male players are going to pick?
You forgot the manfaced evil drow girl you have to be insane to recruit.
>insane
not rly, I went undercover to the evil cult, tried to rescue a poor bear thinking I could get him out like an owlbear but then he was just insane druid that wants to genocide everything
>genocide everything
Black person they're fricking goblins
Are there no good goblins? Same logic as goblin slayer? Why do goblins always have to be bad? This is low iq discrimination
don't give a shit, I went there undercover and I'm not going to blow my cover for some shitty bear
maybe he should said he's Halsin at least or fricking gave me a heads up if I break him out he will go on a murder spree
He just kills the goblins in that room and your cover isn't broken, moron.
he doesn't, the goblins shank his moronic ass to death if you don't help him
the game tells you multiple times that he is halsin
guess what? he is also "undercover" as a bear and doesnt want to reveal himself to you
maybe change the game language to your Hispanic / indian / SEA asian whatever so you understand things
fricking esl moron
>the game tells you multiple times that he is halsin
I can think of one which was the interrogated guy but I missed him coming in and started exploring prison
>druids in the grove will tell you their archdruid left to the goblin camp
>druids main gimmick is transforming into animals
>the mercenaries will tell you they left halsin behind in the goblin camp
>merc being tortured will tell you about halsin
>halsin leaves behind a note telling his apprentice he is going to the goblin camp
idk man, he still could have said something instead of going instant murder mode
if a man looked like this i'd be a gay
guess you like wieners now
Faceblind autist.
>no way to fix her
Why? Look at how cute she is.
Seems she has a significant amount of bugged and broken dialogue and progression. Larian are promising fixes so who knows.
I'm romancing her next playthrough. 🙂
wait for the patch bro, she's currently bugged and you only get scenes with her if you don't romance anyone else
Why would I romance multiple women like some manbawd? Fricking pathetic.
She used to be cute
wtf why did they ruin her face like that
They could have at least given her the amazon body type since she has 17 strength. She looks like a ridiculous anime character swinging around hyper weapons with her tiny body
That's based though, and we only need 1 manwoman
The female muscular body type in this game is fricking horrible, I actually cover up Karlach as much as possible thanks to it, hard pass
It gives them a giant ass though, and that is extremely based. I want an appropriately sized Minthara with a giant ass and a drow thong
THIS IS THE WAY SHE WAS MEANT TO BE
This is the same game where you can make a halfling barbarian
Not canon
dark urge halfling barbarian cleric multiclass is canon
Green Michael Jackson?
does anyone have pictures of the other girl options? i expected to come into the thread with a cheeky image showing the other choices but theres a whole lot of posts and fp wasnt bp
Even then she still has a male skull shape.
She's the best because you can't frick Orin.
Least worst girl, beat out only by custom waifus made through the janky workaround.
>beat out only by custom waifus made through the janky workaround
spoonfeed me bro, I need to know
She's deliberately designed to be the "best girl" as a trap
Normies get invested in her because she's the closest romance option to a human girl and she's a religious girl who behaves in a very approachable and traditional manner. In a manner which might suggest that she's very "pure."
This is of course drastically subverted when you uncover her backstory and learn that she's the town bicycle and completely unapologetic about it. All the less traditional girls are way less loose than she is.
>In a manner which might suggest that she's very "pure."
Most people don't care about that, especially not the "normies" you're talking about, moron
Even normies would care if their loved one suddenly brag about their massive bodycount since they were teens you brainlet frick.
Uh huh that's why Morrigan and Viconia are so popular
wow I was going to play bg to see why everyone shills Viconia but I guess it's just the bawd fetish
>The DROW had sex? THIS CANNOT BE!
Viconia would make /vpol/ cry so much if she came out nowadays
the guy said she bragged about massive bodycount tho
She's afraid of commitment and closeness because everyone who she has ever gotten close to either got badly hurt or badly hurt her, so she's using it as a way to keep you away. Your MC even has a line asking why she's trying to push you away. She also later admits that a part of what she says were lies.
So it's less about bragging and more about emotional trauma really.
>Emotional traumq
By being proud of your well trained tongue through sex (the dialogue line about being able to untie knots with her tongue thanks to her fellow Shar cultists)
I'm talking about Viconia, you tit.
Morrigan never brag about having fricked the entire forest you brainlet frick.
Even the worst "bawd" of the game Leliana only had one person in her life before you, a woman who basically raised her, and you have to heavily convince her (like deliberately making her less pure) to have threesome or foursome
Ah yes schrodinger's purityhomosexualry, it's okay as long as she doesn't talk about it (she does)
Also Leliana was a fricking BARD, do you know what bards in dragon age do?
Get their heads cut off and still appear?
>it's okay as long as she doesn't talk about it (she does)
Prove it you brainlet frick.
And Leliana explicitly said that she only had this one woman in her life, eat shit.
Morrigan has dialogue with both Leliana and you if you're friends with her where she talks about having fricked people before
>Taking joke lines seriously while ignoring romantic lines explicitly stating that Marjolaine was her only love, who taught her the bard way.
Eat shit shadowcuck
you can have sex without love incel
Prove it then that she had multiple sex, no lines from her explicitly imply that.
Unlike Shart who claim that she's so good at sex through experiences that she can tie knots with her tongue.
Hahahaha holy shit
DAO threads are filled with people calling Leliana a prostitute but leave it to your contrarian ass to pretend that she literally didn't frick people as part of her job as a bard
Again show me the dialogue.
It's irrelevant anyway, both Leliana and Morrigan don't see promiscuity as a good thing, it's at best a evil way to manipulate other people.
Shadowheart is genuinely proud of being a huge bawd.
ok I'll post it after you post source of >Unlike Shart who claim that she's so good at sex through experiences that she can tie knots with her tongue.
Multiple alone confirmed that she explicitly state to you how well versed she's at this with other initiates that the can untie knots with her tongue.
man this is Arue tier
What does "Arue tier" mean? She never goes into detail about anything
Or is it just your insecurty talking know that a succubus had sex? (no shit)
I meant that she's a bawd in denial in the non-corrupt route, same way Shadow is in this one in non-Shar route
Not really no, and the screenshot posted there literally has Shadowheart saying "Shar's blessings upon you" how the frick is that the non-Shar route
She's not in much denial at all, she is immediately down for degeneracy. That's basically the player cucking himself though.
it takes a good while before you bang her tho
>denial
>her wound
Completely forgot about that. Flared up like twice in act 1 and I haven't seen it since
>This is of course drastically subverted when you uncover her backstory and learn that she's the town bicycle and completely unapologetic about it.
are you moronic
Most players are straight men, Shadowheart is the most attractive of the women.
>Most players are straight men
Lmao, not in the case of BG3 most definitely. In CRPGs yes, but not in this game.
>modern crpgs
>straight men
There is quite literally no saving table top games
Mentally ill degenerates are still a minority
Shadowheart is literally the only attractive party member. Of course she's being romanced the most.
tis a mystery for the ages
Do we have any decent mods already?
The issue with BG3 romance is that every character is blatantly player-sexual. God forbid in modern gaming an NPC to be straight and not be interested in you if you are the same sex as them.
Also everyone is too horny. They behave like the most obnoxious caricatures of Californian sex addicts rather than normal people. It's not normal for most people, even loose ones, to be down to frick few hours after you meet or have orgies after a big successful job at a celebration party. Typical modern Tumblr writing. Lae'zel sleeping with some other guy and rubbing it in your face if you reject her is disgusting, not endearing.
Another issue is that if i want to be just bros, i cannot do that. It's not that a character's personality is only being interested sexually or something, that would be fine if it was written into them. The issue is I don't even have an OPTION to behave like i want to be just bros. You can either be a degenerate bawd or tell people to frick off and that you hate them.
Larian got so obsessed with the weird perverse sexuality in this game they forgot to make actual normal human interactions a thing lmao. Which is typical shitty lazy writing that makes player the center of the universe.
You could make the most disgusting freakshow of a character and if you just choose 5 right dialogue options, Shadowheart will suck your dick. This is not immersive or mature. Sometimes in life people are just not into you. It makes the companions into frickdolls and not actual characters. I don't know if it's done because of degeneracy or "inclusivity and player choice" but it's lame. It reminds me of Panam in Cyberpunk and how people b***hed that she's straight. These traits make them actual characters with preferences. Meanwhile if everyone is into you just because you are the PC then that's shit writing that comes from shallow thinking.
Being able to romance everyone in the game is NOT the same as ANY character you make being able to romance EVERY other character.
Grug no read big rock
>5 right dialogue options, Shadowheart will suck your dick
But hers takes the longest to frick
>The issue with BG3 romance is that every character is blatantly player-sexual. God forbid in modern gaming an NPC to be straight and not be interested in you if you are the same sex as them
You know, I'll take that over shit like Cassidy (NV) who fricks literally everyone in the world except your character. This is my entertainment in the end, not the NPC's.
>still upset you couldn't frick her in the ending slides
homie I want to name my daughter after her, but get over it. She's canonically used goods, and that should have been immediately obvious when listening to her. She makes it clear from the start she doesn't want to frick you.
>homie I want to name my daughter after her
Rose of Sharon is a beautiful name
>but get over it
Nta, but no. It's super nonsensical that she doesn't frick you. I wouldn't mind if she wasn't interested, but she's clearly onto you and has loose morals.
That epilogue slide is fricking insulting
>You know, I'll take that over shit like Cassidy (NV) who fricks literally everyone in the world except your character.
Unironically most moronic part of NV. You can have 10 LUC, 10 CHA, seduction perk and you can't sleep with her for some reason
Glad you brought up Cyberpunk, played a little bit of it and Judy was a good lesbo. There are characters that are hypersexual like Meredith who will do a one night stand and forget about you, and Judy who won't even think of your character like that if you are male. It's more realistic than what Bioware and Larian do.
Judy being a bi romance was dummied out and I still feel like it was a tremendous mistake. I make up for those errors by jacking it to Judy with dick in all of her holes so it balances out.
Yeah frick that homosexual shit, being locked out because some 1s and 0s has a sexual pref is gay af. Kys homie
Yeah. As much as I shit on BioWare they had a structure to their narrative and how their dialogue trees were structured that was intuitive and easy to pick up on. Here every single Dialogue Choice feels like it's catered to go into it's own tree as opposed to building off of what was previously said. Like, you'd expect thematically to follow up sentence 1 with 2 and 3 and go down the list or just mix and match. But no, you're given a bunch of dialogue options you can exhaust on the first fricking long rest and then when you randomly or accidentally click your party members they give flavor text about what just occurred or whatever without having it "refresh" the trees so there's no real sense of progression.
Like, I've killed the Hag, Owl Bear and knocked out the Shadow Druid shit. Yet Shadowfart is here insisting that not enough time has passed or whatever and she's being a coy homosexual. Still don't understand how only interacting with Lae'Zel through the ship, saving her from the Tieflings and then tearing through the troops trying to frick up Zevlor while shitting on a Tiefling and making him bow is enough for her to be completely wet for you meanwhile you have Shadowheart who is only important to the plot in the beginning because she's transporting some magical shit. She's a followwer mule while at least Lae'Zel is a clear "follow me to freedom" leadership about her. Just a superior waifu with agency that she carves for herself not through sitting around babysitting something and giving kinda b***hy responses while being frigid.
>You're beautiful.
>I know. But thank you for noticing.
No.
Dragon Age Origins was lightyears ahead of BG3 in the writing department, they even had non sexuality based conversations. This trash always leads to homosexualry no matter what you do, you get 4 or about 3 or 4 different options of subtly coming onto them or being rude to them. I just want a normal conversation that expands on their background, interests or thoughts about what is happening and not have it inevitably lead to some weird gay romance shit with no way out of it other than insulting them.
Origins also usually had 6 options for dialogue that cover a wild range of personality.
BG3 seems to pigeonhole you in either goody two shoes or murderous butthole
Also the dialogues for friendships were very good, both male and female
>and if you just choose 5 right dialogue options, Shadowheart will suck your dick
You mispelled Gale. Or as I like to call him, Gay Alistair.
I agree, but drop the AIslop next time.
Agreed, the characterization and the quality of writing in this game is subbar.
Having sexuality-locked romances is not efficient nowadays. There's a huge chance someone won't be able to romance the one that appeals to them, potentially not buying the game at all because of it. Just look at how many people were annoyed that Judy was female-locked.
Companions in RPGs having a wide variety of sexual preferences makes them more realistic and believable imo. I hated how every companion in Fallout 4 was bi. It was so boring.
Hell, we should actually go one step further and give companions preferences for how your custom character looks. Like if you made a genuinely ugly character, like literally a clown or a goblin, some companions should deny you romance. They could track your character's ugliness by how extreme your sliders were in character creation. I don't know why no game has done that yet. It's cool as frick imo.
Having everyone to be player sexual wouldn't be so bad. If it didn't overwrite friendships. You can't form bond and bromance. Becouse all it dose is lead to romance.
It would be fine if game asked sexual orientation at start of the game.
>Like if you made a genuinely ugly character, like literally a clown or a goblin, some companions should deny you romance.
Baldur's Gate 2 already did this.
>Having well written characters is not efficient nowadays
You're not wrong.
Its modern rpg. Every character is player sexual and super special at same time.
There isn't just dude who crosses path with player and off they go to adventure.
Do people like this everyone is special stuff?
People love mass effect. Companions in 1 are normal people who cross path with shepard and join force. Even shepard isn't special. He is special forces meathead that happens to touch glowing stone. It could have been anyone.
Wotr was the worst. All I wanted was normal companion that just wanted to fight bad guys. Who has no quirks and no personal proplems. Companion quest with him is just go out and drink.
Someone you could be bros with.
Bioware companions all have personal problems? The 'Bioware companion quest' is a staple of their games.
Also, how are the companions all special in BG3?
Laszel is just a githyanki, Astarion is effectively a slave, same with Karlach, Shart is only 'special' in the context of the shar/selune shitflinging. Really only Gale and Wyll are really 'special'.
>Shart is only 'special' in the context of the shar/selune shitflinging.
She's holding the legendary macguffin and has a hairstyle no other NPC in the game shares. She's 'super' special.
>Also everyone is too horny. They behave like the most obnoxious caricatures of Californian sex addicts rather than normal people.
They all have twitch streamer personalities.
I swear you guys just say buzzwords without a care as to if they actually make sense sometimes.
Which twitch streamer is a ptsd ridden developmentally stunted child soldier?
Which one is an ex-cult member struggling with the guild of being focused to give away their body for phishing schemes?
Do you not know what a personality is?
>Which twitch streamer is a ptsd ridden developmentally stunted child soldier?
Limmy
>Which one is an ex-cult member struggling with the guild of being focused to give away their body for phishing schemes?
Asmongold
Wolverine and Deadpool are both mutants with regeneration ability that were experimented on against their will as part of an illicit super soldier program.
But that isn't their personality, which are very different from one another, that is their backstory.
>discord troony doesn't know what a personality is
No wonder you homosexuals make such a fuss about your sexuality, you have nothing elsewhere going for you.
Precisely this. It does all of the characters a disservice by having such blatant romantic pandering instead of actual relationships that develop in an organic way.
cuck hands typed this post
>literally shits on degeneracy and that laezel sleeping with other men is disgusting
>"cuck hands wrote this"
BG3 shills are something else.
I'll never forgive homosexuals and the israelites that control them for poisoning the very concept of platonic male friendship
Fujos killed that shit long ago anon
>The issue with BG3 romance is that every character is blatantly player-sexual
It's funny because the people praising this game for being "sex-positive" will also turn around and criticize Japanese games for making (you)sexual pandering characters. It's the same shit in a different tone dictated by cultural standards.
Nobody likes homosexuals
Unless it’s by Japan because then board likes it for some reason?
/lgbt/roons aren't Ganker
>The issue with BG3 romance is that every character is blatantly player-sexual
That's a good thing. Why lock certain character romances into one of the two genders? Their in-universe sexuality depends on what gender you pick, they're not all bisexual. Boom, problem solved.
they're not characters with personalities then
Hey, I hate to break this is to you, gay anon-kun, but who you prefer to bone isnt a personality. Love when gays admit exactly what normal have been accusing them of.
>That's a good thing. Why lock certain character romances into one of the two genders?
Because people are gays or they aren't. Limiting romance to gender and race shows the character has an actual personality with preferences.
Making everyone player sexual is lazy as shit
Yeah, like it was in cyberpunk, where half of morons created a self-insert and then cried on forums how judy wouldn't date them, to only install a mod for it a week later.
I've seen more people crying about Panam and how she "totally gives bi vibes" but the point stands regardless.
It'd be cool if developers followed their one rules of "diversity" and accurately only put a gay romance option if there are ten straight ones, though
havent played keanu big chungus game but
>create cyberpunk goth e-girl
>she wont frick the player if theyre a guy
do they even understand the target audience at all?
>Why lock certain character romances into one of the two genders?
It's thanks to this moronic logic that we end up with a system like 5e, that we end up with races not having their own attribute bonuses but all of them getting the same bonus instead
People aren't the same, some are straight other are homosexuals, not everything needs to be playersexual to pander to everyone
>The issue with BG3 romance is that every character is blatantly player-sexual.
This is a non-issue if their romance was done correctly
I'm not making 6 characters to romance 6 people, sorry
>Which is typical shitty lazy writing that makes player the center of the universe.
welcome to anime writing
it appeals to gays with NPD
>God forbid in modern gaming an NPC to be straight and not be interested in you if you are the same sex as them.
So you would be okay if they would make shadowheart a dyke and tell you to frick off?
A great take. Game romances often feel so shallow because without the possibility that the character might reject you then nothing meaningful happens when they choose you. No commitment means no stakes which means no story.
I wouldn't want to frick you either.
>Also everyone is too horny. They behave like the most obnoxious caricatures of Californian sex addicts rather than normal people.
I would place money on the romances being written by people who's only experience are narcissistic one night stands from Tinder.
Lae'zel was "frick off you big nose freak", then after we killed a few goblins she was, "get naked my tongue is waiting".
Minthara was the same, kill a few Druids, now get naked.
>tinder
Grindr
>that thing
>conventionally attractive
no
By comparison it is. All other fugly troony shit.
hey, bear isnt fugly trans at least.
This bait is way too obvious. Shitting on straights and trannies?
Good bait only plays one side.
>bait
No newbie you're replying to a gay Hispanic avatargay that hates straight men, women and especially trannies, he's 100% genuine
>has the only hair that no other NPC in the game possesses
Yeah, she's the designated waifu. The Morrigan/Yennefer [in appearance] of the game. She can give quite sassy lines at times though. If Shadowheart wasn't attractive she'd get shit on more. Lots of people like to give Lae'Zel strife over her tsundere Vegeta attitude because they're gays and can't handle the fantasy of dicking down women into submission and tradition which I'm assuming is what she's all about. Lae'Zel wanted to get to know each other the very first night I camped out while Shadowheart is all
>W-we haven't really gone through anything. CAN'T THERE BE MORE MYSTERY? OMFG BRO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THING IS OK STOP ASKING FOR IT. She acts kinda like a b***h by picking at Lae'Zel and being kinda uppity. I like Shadowheart and all but its clear why. She's the unclaimed white woman party member cleric/healer. It thematically makes sense that she'd be the one whose legs everyone wants to spread.
If Lae'Zel had a normal nose she'd look just like a green Kate Mara and god forbid Shadowheart have visual competition.
Damn I can feel the froggay seethe coming from this post
Haven't done Shadowheart but Frog has the fight in the night and the speech that comes with it.
It's cliché as shit but I didn't care it was a fun scene to playout.
>She's literal waifu bait.
Undeniably.
>I'm afraid of dogs, [Hero]. Waaah don't leave me alone~
>M-my hand hurts :~~*( Can you hold it? :*~~)
Second play and I’m doing good, romancing Gale because Halsin comes too late. Gales sex scene was pretty beautiful. I don’t know if I believe he’s gay though, he won’t shut the frick up about Mystra.
>white woman party member
>afraid of wolves
really breaking my immersion here larian.
Lmao right? Like how could you frick that up? If anything Shadowheart being into doggos would make her even more waifu material.
>Oh no the big mean growlies SAVE ME SHAR
Only ran into one wolf and it was domesticated/tame and blindly following the voice of a black man dressed in rags wearing a Burger King Club crown who is cow-towing to a woman with a pet snake that yells at children. Like, shut the frick up Shadowheart it wasn't going anywhere near you.
Her cult fooled her into thinking a wolf was attacking her but it was her dad trying to defend her in wildshape and they just stole most of her early memories. Bretty kino if you ask me.
i know, that wasn't the point of the post.
>Has a proper reason to not like wolves
>Breaking immersion
Oh so you're just moronic. Have a good day mr in-charge-of-crayons!
*begins to cry*
>Singleplayer tracks and reports your gameplay
How long before hate crimes against npcs earn you a firm knock at the door?
turn it off or pirate it.
This. I just disconnect from the internet when I boot up. Honestly I don't want the game to see how often I leave the guys in camp and just take the women with me. Wyll and Gale are cool. I killed Ascalon or whatever immediately then regretted it because I fricking HATE not being able to lockpick shit whenever the frick I feel. And because thematically he's just a vampire frick with no real connection to the major over-arching plot. He's the team mascot which makes sense because he's amusing and shit once you get past how...Max Landis he is vocal fry and cadence.
you could have just used a revivify scroll you know
I will not let Larian spy on me but I wouldn't mind answering a "what were the three best and worst things in our game" type questionnaire if they made one.
gay people are a minority group, always have been. being an advocate for human rights doesn't mean you are that person, moron.
It's true. Also fun fact: killing lae'zel and saving her on the nautiloid drives her approval up to an insane level. By act 2 mine was almost maxxed out. She really does not like the ugly piss prostitute githyanki
Nice, I killed her right at her cage on my second playthrough. I really hate that angry frog lady.
It's cute how Shadowheart and Lae'zel come to appreciate each other over the course of the story though. From full on knives at each others' throats to tsundere.
but then you miss out on them fighting each other in panties
>gave shadowheart laezel's bdsm gear and left laezel topless
Based. I did the exact same thing
Actually I gavce Lae'zel the devil girls stuff after I killed and beheaded her
>solved all of this drama by just not putting the frog in my party and instead leaving her in the hunter's cage
Lae'zel has some really nice growth though
so does the mould in my shower. doesnt mean I want it around
kino
Pedophile game.
Shadowheart is a massive prostitute kek. Larian are utter cuckolds.
Karlach is a based pedo? Almost sad I beheaded her now
>Larian is pro pedo
Alright, you convinced me. I'm buying a second copy to support them.
Lae'Zel is so thirsty is funny.
>The vampire said what!? Well...if I wake up to find his fangs at MY throat I'll kill him!
And everyone just shoulder shrugs and ignores the comment because it's just shit that Lae'Zel says. Then she's all
>Y-yeah because no one gets to taste MY body...unless I offer it to them, of course :))
And no one picks up on it and the conversation moves on. Sometimes there'll interactions like that. You can see the femininity as her walls break down. Hell you can be firm with her and she'll still love you for it. Meanwhile I insulted Shadowheart's gay religion by calling it evil ONE TIME and from that moment forward this fricking b***h makes it a point to begin and end every interaction I have with her with some kind of passive-aggressive "Shar be with you" one-liner. Makes me want to strike her.
>from that moment forward this fricking b***h makes it a point to begin and end every interaction I have with her with some kind of passive-aggressive "Shar be with you" one-liner
That's the line she gets once your approval is high enough, it's not passive aggresive at all
Imagine being this thin skinned
>Imagine being this thin skinned
...where do you think we are?
>And no one picks up on it and the conversation moves on
i don't care if it's intentual or just shitty writing, it's funny as frick
"people" play this trash? lol this looks like shit. gotta consoom muh slop huh
its footage from the early access
bing bing wahooo that'll be 80 dollars + tip fellow nintenpedophile
Her and Gale are the easiest to romance, statistically speaking. All you need with them is just not be a murder hobo and they're good for the most part.
Karlach isn't hard too, but actually getting to a point where you get to touch her is a bit, so I guess that's a hurdle for some people, and Astarion and Laezel are easy fricks, but the actual relationship bit takes a while.
That aside, Shadowheart and Astarion seem to have the most work put into them in terms of their romantic subplot though.
>All you need with them is just not be a murder hobo and they're good for the most part.
Wouldn't Wyll and have the same pre-requisites? Shadowheart being a snappy little b***h with her responses makes her feel like too much of a hassle to put up with sometimes.
Why did they blatantly lie about polyamory romances being a thing?
To keep their troony cred? I dunno
who else would you even romance if your straight?
Frog is ugly
Minthara is unfinished
Tiefling leaves you
Shadowheart is made for BBC. It's in the name.
>shadow = dark = black
>heart = spade
Her name literally means the Queen of Spades.
>shadowHEART
>means spades
A spade is a flipped heart. Open your eyes, sheeple.
How many western games have an attractive female you can romance? The one in starfield is a fricking granny
If this was a Japanese game every second character would be cute and there'd be threads debating best girl.
i think you guys way overestimate how much the average gamers cares about video game romance
half the threads about this game have something to do with the romance you dunce
Because pretty much all of the game's fanbase are women, trannies and feminine "men".
No, no I don't think I do. I was a teenager when Dragon Age Origins got on the fricking news for having a sex scene in it. You know, the stiff, ugly underwear on gyrating barely seen through jump cuts? The game was a fricking HIT in it's day regardless of how it's looked back on now and it was 90% because of the romance and party banter, because everyone fricking panned the actual gameplay. And that's after the KOTOR I 'lesbian' scene fricking took the gamer media by storm (It was literally one line where she says you're special to her regardless if you are a man or woman). You could not watch Tech/SpikeTV without someone shilling Bioware sex games. You are actually underage if you don't remember how big a deal it was. This is just the same recycled shit but now the girls can have a little pp of their own, as a treat.
no one cares about DA:O for romance but a few people here. and i dont need to explain why a game getting in some controversy for le epic sex scene doesnt at all imply otherwise
Holy shit imagine being this delusional. Two of the most popular characters are popular BECAUSE of their romances, and one of them is a man too, Bioware fanbase is filled with women and no one likes romance more than them
I remember the same thing happening with the first two Witchers. It's still kind of weird how an almost-triple A RPG in the west could be released with actual nudity back then, I can't remember any other mainstream games in the west aside from God of War doing that, and GoW obviously only did it to be edgy, let's be honest. Though with the Witcher I guess there was the excuse that european attitudes towards sexuality weren't the same as american ones, kinda like european cinema being famous for treating sexuality with a lot more candor than american cinema does.
Normies will choose the lame half elf

The seeth is palpable lol
>woke tumblerina lgbt that keks the players in the end
>not cute green waifu
Yeah, no...
Anon, you should check that obsession that you have with cuckoldry, it's not healthy.
This. She's the blandest, most forced "waifu" in a long fricking while and it's clear whoever designed her never actually talked to a woman, despite being the kind of person that loves to call people virgins and incels. And they didn't even have the guts to actually make her sexy or attractive - no, let's give this elf b***h the body of a skinny twink with absolutely zero breasts. What a joke.
>no, let's give this elf b***h the body of a skinny twink with absolutely zero breasts
perfect
If you're an average amerimutt that has horrifying nightmares about scandily clad white women with big breasts and cleavage, yeah.
no, I'm a eastern euro weeb that faps to e-girls

Elf wench superiority
If you are a heterosexual man who isn't into the weird looking humanoid races or the implication that you're going to get dommed by the woman you romance - in other words, a normal guy - you pretty much have no other choice.
>have sex with Shadowheart once
>she's already up for a 4some
Lariansisters... I'm not feeling so good...
How the frick did a game like this become so mainstream? Was it really the bear porn? Im assuming the game is also on console so ita probably 2x the players
see: Baldur's gate II: Shadows of Amn (2000, Bioware entertainment)
>look mom I posted it again
and still doesn't understand the word 'peak'. ESLs: not even ONCE
Who cares about peaks, no one is playing it right now, it's over.
The dude going from release day, its hilarious.
My samegay intuition is pristine, laughing from that troony seathe is best entertainment on this board last few weeks.
>shadowheart is bad because... she's le white!
How the frick does a half elf classify as white?
her skincolour
I, a man, romanced Gale. The sex scene reminded me of Dr. Manhattan.
Isn't she a cleric of an evil good, seems sufficient for exotic points without needing to add the elf blood
I just watched her pushing a knife through someones throat. Shit was brutal.
I never understood why they didn't like each other in the first place. What differences do they have that are so intense they need to come to blows.
Never been in the middle of two horny women who don't want to share, huh?
>mean frog
you know where you are, you should know what a tsundere is
She so very much reminds me of Leliana from Dragon Age series. She's pretty well written and I'm liking her quest line so far, but yeah she's so popular because she is your typical physically-attractive, waifu-bait character, like Tifa. Even if she was poorly written, male gamers would still be salivating over her.
l
>well written
Well she seems pretty well written to me so far. However, I've only gotten as far as the main goblin camp. Her secret order, her artifact, her weird mark... there's so much to her and I can't wait to learn more.
Anyways, I'm actually not romancing her. Bae'zel is my bed-mate.
Is it true that the Tiefling chick ends up going back to hell in the good end? If so, I'll fricking mack on Shadowheart too.

I save myself for the codependent Drow that wants us to rule the world as husband and wife.

She doesn't give the pussy up for a long time I just got the scene in act 3 after 50 hours
This game is fire. And I love it !
what did bungie even do in the past decade?
Destiny and Destiny 2.
they made the destiny games, and them ruined them

We're on about Baldur's Gate 3 though.
Most gamers are heterosexual males despite what homosexuals and game journalists tell you
>Makes perfect sense
in what world are you living in where journalists are saying most gamers are gay? why do you make shit up to get mad at?
You're right in that there are no articles saying as such.
But in the academic circles most of these writers come from, the idea of an actual "straight person" has been strongly discouraged for a very long time. Gay people exist, but straight people are on a "spectrum" and can be moved along that spectrum so that they have sex with their own gender without giving up the straight label.

> inb4 Kinsey is a hack and not taken seriously.
Hack yes, but he is absolutely taken seriously.
Does she drops the Dark Lady shit later on the game or that is going to be her whole personality?
she can depending on how you play act 2
Congratulations out of all the BG3 threads I’ve skimmed you are the first one to post actual gameplay of the game
Oh gee, that's weird. The girl with the most in-depth character quest and second-most plot relevance in the game somehow has a majority of people going for her? Oh boy, truly a mystery.
>NOOO WHY DON'T PEOPLE LIKE RACIALLY AMBIGUOUS STRONK troony MUTTS LIKE M-ACK

i love this timeline
Does anyone else hate Karlach? They way her dialogue is written clashes with how everyone else speaks and it bothers the frick outta me. She also seems to be made specifically to pander to basic b***h tumblr lesbians and it makes me kinda hate her.
>barbarian talks like a moron
Whats the problem
whoever designed this batshit moronic sword stance should kill himself
what the frick is wrong with people
just taking a shit, nothing to worry about bro
Crabstance is patrician
Ive never gotten jumped when crabstancing
>ake the most boring, bland, pla-ACK
Other's already said this many times,including this thread, but I'll repeat it because it's true. She's the most popular out of the bunch not because she's good, but because the other choices are just that awful.
I bet the devs are still seething about this and that most players choose to be be straight white chads.
>that pic
So he's an attention prostitute and is admitting other troonys are too? Is there something else I'm missing?
He's saying that trannies will say they are going to leave Twitter for a few days because if they just suddenly vanish from social media other people might think they killed themselves.
>was annoyed as a teen when Aerie slept with my char, then turned him down because everything was moving too fast for her
>was also annoyed by Jaheira who would constantly brood and b***h and constantly needed attention
>see all this cringy sex shit in BG3 and realize how well written BG2 was compared to it
bros... I did BG2 wrong... please forgive me...
how was Viconia bro
never took her with me, because I used to play paladin, cleric and druid, so I always brought Jaheira. what did I miss out on? maybe it's time to replay.
There's similar stuff in 3, anon.
I wish I could romance her but the only one who wants to frick me so far is the green b***h
you don't frick her until act 3
Jaheira is the best character and I haven't even gotten to Minsc yet.
Why would they ruin her face with the scar and the HIDEOUS hairstyle though...
dont care
still not playing
#NoHymenNoThanks
wait what
Found the toddler. The only people who care about virginity, are virgin incels.
and the only ones who disagree are roasties & their coping beta providers
unbelievable
gaming demographic isn't represented enough.
>NORMal things are THE NORM?!?!? how the frick did that happen?
>Shadowheart: That kiss we shared wasn't my first, you know. Far from it.
>Shadowheart: Lady Shar's initiates...we weren't supposed to have relationships. Or flings. Not even stray trysts. And yet... we found a way
>Playername: Is this where you tell me about all your former flames?
>Shadowheart: Even if I could remember them, none would withstand comparison to you.
Then she goes on to say how she learned to skirt the rules of "no sex, no love", and states she will use the same method so that you can have sex.
Yeah, not a prostitute whatsoever ;^)
And remember, if you have 5% of her sex life, she will despise you for it.
>And remember, if you have 5% of her sex life, she will despise you for it.
what did you mean by this, I literally banged the drow and succubus and she was chill with it
Prove it, people posted screenshot of Shart hating on you for sleeping around
how can I prove it, do you want me to post post ending sequence with shadow or what
Post the literal dialogues then otherwise we have no reason to trust you
what fricking dialogue can I post if she didn't get pissed, that's the problem
she literally had 0 comments about me sleeping with the drow
The fact that she didn't even comment about it show that either you've been secretive about sex with the drow or that your game is bugged
>The fact that she didn't even comment about it show that either you've been secretive about sex with the drow
Shadow got wasted on the night after grove killing if that helps but it's not like I was secretive about it.
>or that your game is bugged
probably this since further Minthara romance didnt even trigger after I rescued her
Here's a line for Mizora
Are you still having a meltdown after last night's thread?
>Cuck seething at the truth
>can't even put one virgin in the game
Frog is effectively a virgin, because she cant reproduce with sex
Karlach
Only virginity you can take in this game's is Astarion's mouth.
She's the least shit of the romanceable characters.
She's also likely the first party member you pick up.
>everyone is romancing shadowheart in baldur's gate 3
Is that even true?
She is kind of a huge fricking c**t and a hypocrite. And overall petty too.
She shits on almost every other party member, while she herself exhibits most of the traits she shits on everyone else for.
She also wants to know everything about everyone but if you want to learn more about her then she gets offended and claims it's against her religion.
She really is kind of insufferable.
People might point to Lae'zel, but Shadowheart is honestly a lot worse.
Lae'zel might not respect you initially. But at least she is clear cut and up front with everything. And carries about things rather professionally in spite of her lack of respect. Instead of being a b***h about everything like Shadowheart. But I guess having a pretty face and being relatively easy to impress in-game makes up for all that when it comes to most people. But still.
I mean, it's completely normal
>cute
>interesting backstory
>can influence her to become good or evil
>it's not a prostitute as it takes until act 3 to reach her sex scene
>can actually take decision for herself, but will seek your counsel
>her questline is highly related to the main questline
>has great resolution and cool moments
the only one that feels underwhelming is Karlach, all the companions quest have pretty gud moments
Minthara actually spoils that for you if you ask her about Shadowheart in camp. She mentions that she's not a Sharran anymore even though she is at the time you ask her. Extremely quality game
It still says Shar on Shadowheart's character sheet even after she renounces her, I wonder if there's a way to change that.
It is in the level up screen but not in inventory. Oh, and her wound will still fire up if you finish her quest a certain way.
>not a prostitute
See
Shadowheart and Lae'zel are best romances in the game. Karlach is too boring imo.
>everyone is romancing the streamer looking gamer girl
At least she is white with natural hair so yea, of course everyone wants to be a tall white knight romancing the white girl.
Best choice is the red girl though and I still haven't even played the game.
She got israeliteed.
>Best choice is the red girl though and I still haven't even played the game.
Play it and you'll understand, red girl looks great but is bland as frick
She's okay but she has shitlib vibes then occasionally does very disappointing stuff with out feeling the need to explain herself, the only actual relationship that involves ride or die loyalty is Minthara who's basically a pyscho gf.
Well eat shit devs, of course nobody likes gays and diversity. They thought the world revolves around pride stuff.
You see all the males among Shar initiates?
Shadowheart canonically had sex with all of them.
kinda mind blowing that anybody gives a frick about "romance" in games
I'm still fricking pissed about the final boss bugging out last night for me so I couldn't finish the game.
>most common
What does the opinion of the soulless NPC masses matter?
This anon gets mad when people play white human male paladin and not warlock female tiefling
wrong bud im always mad to start
The other 2 are literally evil, Karlach doesn't exist in my game
Start again and read up on how to make her come into your world.
Are there any mods to change that ugly ass dyke haircut yet?
modders are mostly interested in making more futroony penis options
Wheyyy!
Imagine getting snu students by that, God damn.
Fricking autocorrect, I hate this hook phone dictionary
Normies are getting hard filtered by Lae'zel, more so by Minthara
Is it possible to frick Wyll's patron? She is almost the only woman that has interested me so far. That and the "evil" druid.
Maybe, but as far as I can tell that requires you to not kill wyll since she hasn't showed up for me at all and I'm in act 2 now
I'm willing to tolerate mr "navy seal" if it means getting with a non snowflake woman. Especially if I can then frick his patron in front of him.
>eco-terrorists
Ok, and? I had to interact with the tieflings and with the exception of the forge guy I would kill them too.
>"evil"
Shadow druids are basically eco-terrorists
Why do so many morons here defend them?
all druids should be eco-terrorists
all the dialogue with the druids is moronic. like they're about to kill this tiefling, and you guy can appeal to the balance of nature to get them to stop. what the frick has any of that got to do with nature or its balance? all the dialogue choices are like that. NATURE tells you to not deny the refugees. how does it do that? what part of nature does that? nature is tooth-and-claw, it's a fricking harsh place. these fricking druids pissed me off, man. druids are not good-aligned in the setting, they mostly don't give a shit, and insofar as they do give a shit they mostly give a shit about things remaining stagnant and unchanging i.e., maintaining the "balance".
they don't run around healing animals or sheltering refugees or fighting goblins, or at least they don't do so on principle. they will fight goblins if goblins are despoiling the forests, but goblins in themselves aren't something druids have a problem with, at least not any more than they have a problem with humans.
>druids are not good-aligned in the setting
They're forced to be neutral, be it true, good or evil
Druids can very much be evil or good, or lawful or chaotic, as long as they stay neutral
yes
Yes
More than that you don't even need to do anything other than exist for her to want to frick you (other than keeping her alive I guess)
Fricking sweet. Can you make Wyll watch?
He comments on it afterwards so I assume he watches, yes.
Nice.
Is there a way to do the goblin base fully stealth? It seems no matter how stealthy I am they all seem to auto alert to me once I have killed a 3 of the main targets.
The romance options should be 80-90% pretty girls for straight men and one or two bones for homosexuals and dykes. You know, like the playerbase.
Why do you think personagays discuss romance options so much? Because they all picked a different girl (except haru lmao) because there's so much choice for the (normal) people who play the game.
All this homosexual dyke troony pandering just assures that 80% of the playerbase are going to choose and talk about the same romance option, like Panam in cyberpunk
>doesn't mind you banging Halsin
>doesn't mind you banging Mizora
>but banging Laezel is a no no
What's her problem???
>Mizora
she has standards, you can frick a demon but githshits are too much
but a bear is ok???
yes
and what about the twin prostitutes
those are just drows, that's nowhere near as bad as a gith
Gith are disgusting
she's ok with casual sex i guess
of course it is
in the first 30 hours of the game, the only romancable female characters you ever meet is Shadowheart and Lae'zel
you meet the other 2 later but 1 is essentially hidden and the other is usually seeing as someone you kill since most people save the druids
>and the other is usually seeing as someone you kill since most people save the druids
don't forget she's bugged too
>30 hours to find Karlach
How fricking slow are you?
OY VEY VERY ANTISEMITIC
>shadowshit
>attractive
the game must be really shit if a horsefaced c**t is the best looking thing in the game
As great as this game is and for how long it took
I'm shocked that there isn't more companions
I get they have to do an insane amount of animations and writing for them, but I'm shocked there isn't at least 2 more male and female companions
more like why do you get some companions only in act 3
>druid just stand there
I'm sure I don't even need to ask, but does the drow get her own tent?
>Gale: I fricked up and I'm in trouble I can't ask you to help me
>Me: Nah cmon bud, I'll help you out we can do this
>Gale: OMG GREAT LETS FRICK IM SO FRICKING HORNY FOR YOUR DICK
>Me: erm, you what mate? No thanks
>Wyll: I'm in a bit of shit mate, I fricked up, I can't ask you to help me
>Me: nah come on buddy, I'll help you fight your way out of this mate
>Wyll: WOW THATS GREAT MAYBE TONIGHT YOU SHOULD FRICK ME IN MY ASS IM SO FRICKING HORNY FOR YOU
>Me: Man what the frick, another one? No thanks pal, not my cup of tea
>Astarion: Oooooh I'm so brooding and camp and I've reeeaaaallly fricked up and I will ask you to help me because I'm dark and a bit selfish darling
>Me: I guess I'll help you out because although youre morally ambiguous you're vaguely entertaining so I wanna see where this goes
>Astarion: delightful darling so tonight my arse or yours, mmm just want to drink your blood with you balls deep in my perky little vampire bottom
>Me: Yeah I guess I could have seen that coming least this one makes a bit more sense but no thank you I'm clearly, CLEARLY into shadowheart
>Shadowheart: Oh you've helped me so much and you're my truest friend we're like soulmates and we share such a close and special bond like I've never felt before
>Me: So, we should have sex right?
>Shadowheart: Oh don't be so serious teehee, come and talk to me again maybe I'll spread my legs but your balls deep into act 2 and all we've done is smooch
>Me: frick sake woman what the frick
>*looks over to the other side of the camp to see Wyll, Astarion and Gale all eyeing me thristily with their hands firmly gripping their crotches.
This is the gayest game I've ever played like the MC is just rape bait for every other male character in the game like frick off just because I've been nice to you doesn't mean I want to frick can't we just be friends.
It's even more ironic since she goes on about how she fricks men on a whim despite all that. I'm glad I fricked Minthara after the massacre instead of talking to her.
Everyone noticed how unnaturally horny the characters are
>no frog in camp
It shows
>just because I've been nice to you doesn't mean I want to frick can't we just be friends
Theres a lesson here a lot of people on this board need to learn
if you want to get laid fast be gay?
the game was 100% made by women. all the guy homosexual shit combined with the absolutely awful male customization options make it obvious. All of the hair options are some stupid as shit perfectly quaffed and styled bullshit that make no sense in a fantasy universe or there's a couple joke hairs that are just stringy and ugly. the biggest sign it was made by women is that there's no five o'clock shadow beard option which if a guy had made them would definitely be there
>only fricked her in act 2
What the frick, I had Shadowheart's puss about halfway into act 1
Step up your game loser
she's the most attractive one this game has..? Jesus..
it just works
>Lindsey Graham is 7 times the most popular waifu than Shadowheart
I don't know who that chick is but she sounds exciting
>sup bro, want to have hardcore homosexual sex with me?
>1. Yes.
>2. No need to ask me twice!
>3. No you fricking piece of shit, I fricking hate you have a nice day
Great RPG
We joked about dialogues like this years ago, and now they're reality

>invoke lover

>transform into owlbears
>proceed to watch Orin get paralyzed and multiattacked to death while my Tav watches
or you could just cast hate and smite her 4 times to death
No. She's the most popular because she's a goth girl with a tragic past and an evil exterior that she puts on too fool others. But once you get to know her, you find out that she's actually a big softy and secretly a good person.
I.E. she's this game's equivalent to Viconia, Morrigan, and Yennefer: the moody femme fatale sorcerer with a heart of gold
My religion is about doing shady shit and getting away with it. No questions asked. Please be respectful.
Anon, the advertisers!!!
Depends. On how opinionated she is. She looks like a b***h at heart, uncooperative and too independent.
I will tell you when I play it.
Other than that I guess people like objectively conventional attractive women, weird world, they don't enjoy reverse transvestite black minotaurs to romance.
What is Baldurs Gate even? Are we on a quest for revenge of the squid people and saving the world?
You're on a quest to remove the tadpole that'll transform you into a mindflayer.
Most people are straight males and she's basically the least weird, woman in the game. Is it really that shocking?
Hate her voice, hate her personality (reddit), 4 me its the monster girl tomboys
Yes, yes, Shadowheart is cute, etc.
But is there pregnancy?
Not yet. Wait for the patch to bugfix the missing pregnancy triggers.
Asking the real questions.
Only with the drow, sorry bro but Shar made Shadowheart infertile
>romance in video games
die homosexuals
Lae'zel > Shadowheart
Deep down, you know this to be true.
>attractive female mammal closely related to your species
vs.
>a fricking frog
Githyanki were basically humans at one point.
>no japanese version
my shadowheart doujins ;_;
The Japanese version will probably come out with the PS5 version of the game.
>romance
Beyond pathetic.
Alright, are the journos throwing a tantrum?
Am I the only one who love the fact that Shadowheart is very promiscuous?
Can I make her sleep with other party members like Gayle despite me being the lover?
no but you can make her sleep with incubus
>only character with decent writing
>only character that is decently attractive
How could this happen
>going to be running a new D&D campaign this year
>was going to turn to the internet to find new people
>after BG3, everyone is going to be under the assumption that D&D is all about romancing and sex
>"So your campaign sounds great, but who are the romance choices?"
I still have not heard a single thing about the story, mechanics, villains, or character motivations. It's just sex.
I remember when Critical Role started airing, and people just pushing themselves into the hobby were giving the average DM shit because they weren't as entertaining, engaging, and prepared as a professional voice actor being supported by a group of professional actors and behind-the-scenes staff. They were surprised to find that actually the average game is nothing like that.
But I don't really expect people to flood in saying "SEX? SEX? WHERE SEX? NPC SEX NOW!" because that's kinda moronic.
>because that's kind moronic
I agree. It is moronic. And that's my general expectation from the internet, unfortunately.
I'm just as often disappointed as I am pleasantly surprised.
are you supposed to get karlach and wyll before leaving the druid grove?
where are my dwarf and gnome companions and their obligatory sex scenes? would having a dwarf companion be too "problematic" since it would have a romance option?
>it's okay to frick a bear but not a small, adult humanoid
This is the state we're in.
guess you gotta wait for an expansion or something.
in the meantime you can romance the dwarf in divinity 2
frick the beast.
i have no interest in romancing companions but it seems like they refused to add any dwarf or gnome companions since they decided to go for "everybody is frickable" and someone would call them pedos on twitter
for claiming the game and character building to be so diverse and anything goes, larian really decided to ignore the manlets. everyone is equal and valid for everything except if they are short
i love my stereotypical angry beer-soaked beards on legs
I always found that mindset funny, because even if devs believe small race equals pedo they still let you play those races and frick whoever you want.
I mean what were they thinking making every companion a pedophile
>game tries to have "epic" finale in the city
>it just spawns a billion trash mobs
>I literally have to alt-tab and watch a video during their turn to not die of boredom
>all of them die to one/two black hole casts
From what I've seen she's bawdtier than the frog. No other female is as down for threesomes (devil's) and foursomes as she is.
the game is so inclusive and progressive since you can choose your genitals and pronous, play as a troony and frick a bear and nobody will hold it against you but dear god if someone were to like a character that is short. can't have that
Well, you can play as a short race and frick people. That's something.
wow, how conventional of them
thanks for the news
Asian phenotypes look like Macaque monkeys. Shadowheart just looks like a monkey elf to me.
Should I bother getting Minthara on the team?
Pointless if you try to break the game by having all companions because you'll just end up with seriously bugged flags in act 3.
if you don't want a druid, barbtard and the uhhh whatever class Black person was
I use Karlach since she's my tank, but if Minthara can replace her I guess I'm fine with it.
If you want to romance her and stuff not right now. Too much is broken or missing. Fixes coming but who knows how long.
I've stopped my evil play through after reading half her dialogue is missing, she is still very much in Early Access.
She also needs the amazon body type mod before she's usable. I honestly thought editable companions would be a day 1 mod, but boy was I ever wrong.
lets be really really honest here.
We've been waiting for a game to pit the "LuStFulL MaLe GaZe"vs wokoid rainbowflag people romance options for ages and i think its good to see the obvious outcome manifest itself

thoughts?
Truly a mystery
Living on a farm and having kids with my prostitute wife Shadowheart!
>Normal human beings attracted to the female that presents as the most..."normal"
Stop the fricking presses, the majority of humans acting like human beings? What a surprise! What's next, some other ground breaking discovery like how the goyim will continue to act like goyim?
>get stunned
>get hit by airship
>knocked off the edge and die
This final section can suck my balls
AAAAAAA IT KEEPS FRICKING HAPPENING
STOP STUNNING MY CHARACTERS WHEN THERES A FRICKING AIRSHIP THAT TARGETS YOU WHEN YOU CANT MOVE
WHO THE FRICK DESIGNED THIS FIGHT
bro just use the fricking black hole spell
I blew a bunch of dudes with the tower and chugged haste potions to get through this shit fast. Oh, and the Black person gnome grenade did wonders for the final boss. All four flayers immediately dead.
Whoopsie, a Freudian slip.
i romanced Lae'zel personally
>not slaughter the entire githyanki creche and forsaking Vlaakith for Lae'zel
ngmi
What can I expect?
a crypto miner
>the only normal, conventionally attractive girl
The normal, conventionally attractive girl that Ganker has been saying looks ugly for months but are now backpedaling on at full speed now that bg3 is a unimpeded success.
What do I do here?
I press the button but nothing happens?
You press the other one.
These are not buttons
Yea they are. If you placed the crystals they should move you to a different part of the temple.
Thank God I didn't pre-purchase. So this is just a visual novel played like an RPG. Got it. I'll just go back to modding DA:O instead.
It's typical Larian affair. Wait till Definitive Edition when it's finished.
An electric dragon bloodline is better than storm sorcerer, right? I'll be abusing water + lightning anyway, that does damage.
They're tied. Storm sorc gets better resistances (both thunder and lightning automatically, no resource expenditure) and superior aoe damage (half sorc level aoe) while draconics get permanent mage armour, slightly more hp, some additional damage and a resistance they need to use sorcery points to unlock.
Also stormsorcs get that flight ability which is excellent for positioning.
It's that additional damage that's attractive. Makes you kind of like an evoker, for a single element.
Yeah you might make it work. Go pick up 2 levels of tempest cleric and maximise your chain lightnings and enjoy being strong once in a short rest.
the girls were done dirty in this game. the guys are hotter on average. shadowheart is the only really hot one
