Shes simply stating the fact that she has a badass mother and that you do not have to be the hero for everyone on the planet. The sentence would have worked the absolute very same if you reversed the gender roles.

Stop mansplaining you shit lord.

What does this have to do with mansplaining though? Shes simply stating the fact that she has a badass mother and that you do not have to be the hero for everyone on the planet. The sentence would have worked the absolute very same if you reversed the gender roles.

So up until now we have a stupid transgender npc that plays no important role whatsoever in the plot. I can live with that to be honest. Its not like the original BG saga didnt have any stupid sidequest npcs.
Does the dialogue change if you're a woman? I doubt it does.

I was curious about that, as well.

I ran into game breaking bug that stoped my progress :(

Fuck you beamdog!
Can't you just use CTRL+J to teleport past them? You need to enable debug mode first though.
I ended up Ctrl+Y (instant kill) every one of those bastards blocking my way.

Speaking of debug mode, anybody know how to enable it on GOG's version? Can't seem to find that Baldur.ini file anywhere.

I just had that convo with my female character. I chose same response and got same exact response from the child. So it has nothing to do with battle of the sexes but all about a 5 year old that thinks her mother is the biggest badass and it is not a shy kid.
So a few autists from Codex can finally shut the fuck up.

C/p from beamdog forums:
2.0 changed how you need to enable Debug Mode:

First, you need to edit "Baldur.lua", not "Baldur.ini". Actually, if you still have a Baldur.ini file, you may as well delete it.

Second, instead of the lines included in the description, you need to add the following line. It's position doesn't matter:

SetPrivateProfileString('Program Options','Debug Mode','1')

I just was checking around 4chan. Is there seriously a "transgender" character called Mizhena in the game? FFS Beamdog.

Just tried it, works. Thanks.

If you'll take a gander at Carl's avatar, you'll see he too was also playing a female character. :M

This is all I need to know about Beamdog's vomit of a game.

Killing her gives you 2000 xp :smug:



God.

This shit in fantasy games has always baffled me. Why is it there? Why is it needed? Why do parents allow maybe their only child to be a weirdo? And how come they haven't taken her/him/it to a priest? Maybe the child is possessed? I get it in Mass Effect and such comes, Oh so progressive future. But when it rains demons, the maddened drow flood out of holes in the ground and heaven itself is a place of brutal vengeance...you really have time to worry about this? Hell why has no one smited him or her yet? With how black and white these worlds are.

Does she light up when you detect traps?

Also I can't figure out if the VA belong to a masculine woman or a feminine man. That's what the point, perhaps?

Is there any way to change that blurry resolution e.g. scale the resolution to your liking in the options menu?

Finished "gaem". Plot sucks (second half anyway, beginning is ok), Shining Lady never gets interesting, finale is like fanservice on drugs :shittydog:

Didn't romance anyone I think only avaible for my party choices was Safana but I said her to take a hike

IMO with these sort of resources, Beamdog could have just made their own small game with unique locations, characters spells and their own story - would have been waaaay better

Recycled final boss from another IE game is just crazy level of laziness
