Do they live in a bubble where people cannot have opinions other than their own?
I assume that was a rhetorical question but the answer is yes.
This guy is acting like funadamentalists christians care that much about SoD. I highly doubt the funeral of Beamdog is going to be picketed by the Westboro Baptist Church.
I also like how they forget about muslims, I don't think they enjoy faggotry in media much either. But it would be raycist to criticise a muslim for not wanting their agenda, riiiight?

YES!
I have no issue with gays, transgender, what have you, but I don't want modern day hot button political issues anachronistically showcased in fantasy games. I play games to escape this shit, not have it shoved down my throat. So, I had $23 left of my April gaming budget that I was going to buy this expansion with but instead bought (rebought really) Starpoint Gemini 2 gold edition, Krai Mira, and the newest expansion to Wastewalker (great survival focused crpg if anyone is looking for a good. hard game to play). Suck on that Beamdog, no one wants political bullshit forced on them in games. Fire Gaider and your opther Bioware console hacks and hire writers without an agenda.

Re: the stoner
In the last stream they did before release, they said they were originally making the game 100% serious but then felt that they needed to add some comic relief characters to match the base game's style.
Yet they werent written in the games style. what the fuck is wrong with these people?

Well said and totally shows how hypocritical the SJWs are.

The tranny character is obviously the SJW writer in the feathered cap trolling, so I wouldn't beat yourselves up so much about it. If there was an option to tell them "Get away from me freak!" or to attack them no one would care...instead you have to "accept", which is the sticking point.

The stoner in the tavern did stand out like a sore thumb (probably because they wasted a substantial portion of their VO budget on it for some reason) but as others have said, was no less ridiculous than some of the stuff in the original BG.

I'm enjoying the gameplay so far - some of the combat is actually quite challenging given I didn't have an EE endgame save to carry over into the expansion and thus don't have a great deal of optimal equipment to access. I would have liked to recruit Tiax but alas he seems to have been thrown in for a comic relief cameo.

I got a free SoD key on a forum which shall not be named and honestly meant to check out this tranny everyone's about to kill themselves over, but...

- Launched BG1 and looked at starting SoD area... listened to some dialog
- Got bored, quit BG1 and launched BG2 to check out the 2.0 UI changes
- Forgot to stop playing BG2

Oh, well.

Reading the Steam reviews.. this game is getting torn apart. Also it's moved way down the top sellers list.. not even Page 7...
I think this game fucking bombed.. Maybe next time don't stick your dick in the grognard beehive.


BG:EE is selling great though, at 75% off. :lol:

EDIT:
Gog.com is even worse.. Holy shit. Nobody is gonna touch the BG franchise again after this.

the thing keeps going from Mixed Reviews to Mostly Positive and back to Mixed Reviews and then back again to Mostly Positive. Seems like the tug of war between the SJWs and the Normals has begun!!

But they are. It's like these guys have no understanding what constitutes good writing or why people even play these games.

When you insert your real world politics or easter eggs in a scifi or fantasy game you're just shooting yourself in the leg. Because when the player encounters these things he's immediately pulled out of the game world to this one. And he realizes that it's not the character that is speaking to him, it's the writer, usually a moronically shitty one too. And he/she wants to have a word with you. Stop playing and listen.

What's that you say? RPGs are a form of escapism? LUDICROUS! They're clearly delivery systems through which you can (and should!) cram your political agenda down players' throats.

There's been an increasing trend of shitty female SJW "writers" infesting RPGs, lately. Writing is perhaps the easiest way for ideologues who are literate but otherwise devoid of any discernible talent, skill, or creativity to infiltrate a vulnerable industry and turn it into utter shit. After all, the term "hack writer" wasn't coined in a vacuum.

I am a feminist (I think that women are treated worse than men all over the world. Even in the western world, they're less paid than men for the same amount of work).
In my work, I collaborate with a lot of gays and bisexuals (I'm a musician).
And you know what Beamdog?
They told me to say to you that shoving this fucked-up SJW shitty agenda in a video game is propaganda that bores them. They're not all white or black for heaven's sake. They don't give a fuck about gender.
There are evil trannies, gays, lesbians or heterosexuals in life, can you imagine that?
Amber's diatribe in Kotaku is just puritan.

Can someone explain to me how this "enhanced edition" actually looks WORSE than the original? Seriously, WTF?

I don't understand that, either. The huge black outlines around characters, the peculiar fields of sharp contrast around the map, the UI elements and design that are shittier than the original... it looks like shit, which is why I've always figured I'm better off playing the originals with a resolution/UI mod or two.

That and all the additional bugs and badly-written garbage they apparently add to the original games.

Even in the western world, they're less paid than men for the same amount of work).

I wonder if Gaider is currently sweating profusely as he goes through his rough draft of BG3 and tries to remember all the trannies he inserted into it, in light of the current outrage.

You wanted your shitstorm? You've got your shitstorm. The next time, say to Amber to stop declaring non-sense in the media about a video game which is supposed to be a RPG from a beloved franchise.
But I guess that you enjoy the free publicity.
Well done.

I want to reiterate something: Trannies, lesbian, gay, blind, deaf, invalid, etc characters are just fine.

They worked in Psycho, they worked in Other Voices Other Rooms, they worked in Transamerica, and in that movie with Robin Williams where John Lithgow is a cross dresser. Guess what? These are real characters that are built into a story. Not fucking tokens to remind everyone of your goddamn political views.

This is the codex. We love trannies here. More than we'd like to admit.

Also, please vote in the open poll called "How far would go with a ladyboy" in the GD forum. It's for research.

EDIT: Here's the link to the poll. Please vote for research purposes. K' thanks.
