Yeah, what was the point of making her an orphanage owner. And why she lives in baldurs gate? Is it out of sentiment?

She's a high ranking harper agent, it's part of her whole job to be somewhere she can scheme like her organization does.

You'd be surprised at what doesn't make you gay.

Tell me you have sucked dick for coke, without telling me you have sucked dick for coke. It is ok man, we all have our crosses to bear. Cocaine is a hell of a drug! (h/t Rick James)

Inb4, Larian is making LOTR cRPG


First Amazon, and now Larian? Peter Jackson's movies were already somewhat divergent from Tolkien's vision. I can't imagine how much tranny shit and occurrences of missing the point is Larian going throw in to further desecrate Tolkien's works with such a game?

Considering the writer for Zardoz, a fantasy film from the 1970s, intended to make an animated LOTR movie (Pre-Bakshi) that would involve full-frontal gay sex between Aragorn and Boramir, perverting LOTR seems to be a passtime of maladjusted nerds.

And even that probably would have been better than Rings of Power

I miss the old Codex where people would rip apart a game like DA:O's writing and analyze minutiae of the lore while DA:O isn't even that egregious most of the time. Now a fanfic-tier game has ardent champions who will defend every single part of its overly bland, sanitized and nonsensical plot and characters.
Realistically, there is so much shit to gripe about if you are actually going to take the time to be critical of the plot that I feel like it isn't worth the effort. If I am going to write a 20,000-word essay about something, it isn't going to be BG3.

I may pick this up in a few years when it's under 20 bucks, and I finish up some other games, but it really comes off as essentially a degenerate pride parade larp from some folks and "you can ignore that shit" from others.

I still don't know who to believe. I will never pay a Belgian 60 dollars, but will it be worth the inevitable asking price of 20 in 2 years?
Lmao, thinking this will discount down to 20 within 2 years.
See you in 2 years at the steam winter sale.

So I'm understanding that the default in FR is bisexual/pansexual? So if you play modern day D&D you're literally a faggot? If you have a group playing, either all of you are faggots or the setting is completely broken because you're not roleplaying it properly.

So for Mebs and other Ed Greenwood fans, this setting is only for faggots and groups of faggots?

It's interesting for all the faggot romance options, there isn't an option to say something like, "no thanks I'm not gay." Straight doesn't exist in this universe. How could any game/setting be more woke than having heterosexuality not even exist?

Another thing I've complained about that the reddit fag/tranny crew never addresses (because they don't mind) is the lack of any masculine brotherhood type party members. All male party members in this game are faggots and effeminate. While three out of four female party members have strong masculine energy (if you include Minthara.)

Even BioWare always had masculine bro type party members. Larian set the record for most feminine/faggy male party members in a game.

Is he a party member? I had no idea.

He is the guy who wants to fuck you as soon as a certain trigger happens so i guess he is basically defacto gay unless you play female, right?

BG3 is so trash that it's not even interesting to shit on it

Is there a lore reason why every single Deep Gnome in the game is gay?
The pre-written adventure from the D&D Essentials Kit, Dragon of Icespire Peak, has a quest that features 2 deep gnome kings who are gay for each other.

Imagine being a gnome. All the other gnomes look like shit, ugliest race ever, but you also look terrible since you're a gnome too. What's the plan? Gnome women do look a bit better than gnome men, but not by much. All the sexy races like elves won't touch you with a bargepole. You might be one of those people who thinks Half-Orcs are hot as hell, but you're out of your mind if you think one of those big burly hunks or hunkesses is gonna touch your dinky little gnome junk.

The best thing to do is lez out or fag out - especially if you're a female gnome, because have you seen what male gnomes look like?! Just accept that you're an uggo gnome, find another uggo gnome of the same sex who looks passable, and push romance and sexuality out of your mind from that point on.
