I refuse to play any game that does not give me a precise 0-255 slider widget for picking the exact amount of botox injected into my character's ass.
Thordros does not use pronouns. Thordros is not woke. Thordros uses formal names only. Thordros is gamer.
Kotaku In Action is woke. Kotaku In Action uses personal pronouns like

Thordros does not use pronouns.
That's cool and i respec that, but i need to inform Thordros that in this case, Thordros should set the pronoun flair to none / use name so that people adress Thordros correctly.
It must be fun to be the sort of person who just buys a game to get mad at it
Like, doesn't read any previews, doesn't watch any videos, doesn't do any research for a $60 investment
Please, I am begging you, stop calling buying things an "investment". I am getting third-hand capitalist brain poisoning.
For those unfamiliar: the character creation in BG3 lets you separately pick your character's pronouns, body shape, and genitals. There's male/female/enby pronouns, four body shapes (2 masc, 2 femme), and like 8 sets of genitals (uncircumcised penises, circumcised penises, and various vulvae).
It's no different from other games with character customization except it doesn't couple gender and physical presentation.
and like 8 sets of genitals (uncircumcised penises, circumcised penises, and various vulvae).
I feel like that's way too specific for a non-porn game, but like, the other parts to this do clear up some confusion.
I haven't gotten far enough into the game to see if genitals make an appearance again, and any clothes you wear seem to override the existence of genitals, so it may have been a marketing thing like Cyberpunk did.
Cyberpunk had like fully animated sex scenes though, maybe a marketing gimmick but definitely used.
The player's genitals were never actually visible anywhere in the game proper, only in the character screen. Even screenshot mode forced underwear on unless you modded it.
I'm going to have to warn my sister about this now, so that she doesn't accidentally make characters when her kids are around.
wow, I thought Conan Exiles was crazy because I could use a slider to turn my hangdown from a table grape into a baby's arm.
Would love the data for stats on what people picked for their dicks and 20 different R visualizations of that data.
I also want that genital split info on just the female Tiefling PCs (which I assume are like, 80% of them)
It sounds really horny (which isn't a bad thing on its own) but horny with options that enrage fascist weebs that only want their specifically sanctioned horniness and all the ideological baggage thereof.
You'd think but the character builder is distinctly unsexy, with bright direct light on flaccid, hairy organs.
Also you'd think weebs would love to play a futanari wizard or whatever, so I'm placing the blame on the usual quartering chud groups

I've known for years that chanlord weebs have a paradoxical hatred of pronoun preferences and especially of trans people while never shutting the fuck up about their "futa" cravings. It doesn't make sense but that's what they do.
fetishizing the subject of hatred is pretty common. see misogynists, strom thurmond, etc. transphobes cranking it to trans bodies aren't a new type of guy.
Bottle up "day 1 purchase G*mer who takes to twitter and reddit to complain game made in 2023 don't cater to them as a white cisgendered man" and sell it.
: "I am mad at capitalism because it has rewarded behaviors that actively cause problems in our society: ecological collapse is profitable, war is profitable, prison is profitable, and housing is a luxury thanks to so-called investors that do nothing!"
: "I am mad at capitalism because sometimes I am not a piece of media's target audience! What the heck, porky? I thought I was your special widdle boy!?! Porky betrayed me!!111!"SOMEONE SOMEWHERE IS ENJOYING THIS GAME INCORRECTLY BY USING DIFFICULTY SLIDERS, ACCESSIBILITY OPTIONS, OR BY HAVING CONSENSUAL ADULT SEX SCENES THAT DON'T APPEAL TO FASCIST WEEBS
There is so much understated pathology and ideological
in their choice of mascot: a quiet obedient (but perpetually tired/miserable looking) waifu that just wants to play games but is just as preoccupied as they are with culture war shit, in full agreement with them politically as the ultimate fantasy The Good One. Also looks underaged, of course. 
Give it a year and she'll be canned for having red, wavy hair like she's a damn paddy, one of those fake whites.
I know that we're still in the conservative golden age ever since they won the culture wars starting around...idk, 2012 when tumblr was the laughing stock du jour. But holy shit, they are still doing their victory dance over one particular culture war they won in 2014. It's like the nerd equivalent of the popular kid being a washed up 30-something dipshit still in his hometown still reminiscing about his big touchdown that made him king of the school.

I dunno. That mascot has persisted for about a decade now.

"ATTACK HELICOPTER" is the "WINNING TOUCHDOWN THAT ONE TIME"
equivalent for

Utterly pathetic authoritarian-craving parasites.

If I could come up with an alternative insult for CHUDs, it would have to be minion.
- Portrayed as idiots that all look the same, cannot think for themselves and hence their love for authoritarianism. The only difference is that they have all deluded themselves into thinking they'll be the badass anime villain dictator
- Famous for being "funny" and having no other redeeming qualities
- Associated with Facebook and boomers
- Incomprehensible speech patterns: "I'm kekpilled, mogging the leftoids." WTF does that mean?
- Programmed to serve the biggest villain on the planet when pressed, CHUDs will boil it down to "for the lulz".
The entire "Kali Yuga" mindset popularized by 4chan fascists is actual minion mentality.

I'm pretty sure that right now is not anywhere near as bad as things were during the Bush years.
You could hold all of the positions of the contemporary conservative movement while pretending to not be a Nazi, and people would take you seriously back then.
conservative/right wing babies seethe and cope. the most triggered little crybabies.
i love it.
The whole thread is very funny. https://www.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/15hxoqc/what_happened_with_baldurs_gate_3/
There is no booba slider. Truly dark times for Gamers.
"How dare the selectable faces on the fantasy character creation menu not be sufficiently attractive to me! This is a genocide of all men"
- Some of the rational big brains in those comments.
My favorite was the guy saying it forced him to select a different race for once because the Tiefling had the most conventionally attractive face.
i can't choose the density of the montgomery glands, larian has gone woke, it has nothing to do with the fact that it's harder to make armour and clothes fit anything from a flat chest to gigantomastia no, it's because socjus
Wokeism is when there are more character creation options and the more options there are the more woke it is
Similarly, even the option of difficulty siders or other accessibility options is heretical badwrongfun that destroys the
experience for Epic across the planet if even one casual doesn't have the Real Authentic Experience(tm) that they do.
I'm completely ignorant about the new baldurs gate, is it any good? Worth picking up now or should I wait for a couple months for the price to drop?
- ShowIts a really fucking good and woke. If you like crpgs this is a masterclass in it. Just one warning its like 120gb big.
I hope one of these days, the internet will realize that conservatives are not the standing authority on what constitutes a "good" or "bad" game, and stops stroking their ego. Most of these assholes are normies that only got interested in gaming because of Call of Duty and turned a once good hobby into golf for under 40s.
and turned a once good hobby into golf for under 40s
This is erasure of the 50something gamedads that are the target paying audience for Star Citizen.
there's a whole subgroup of like frathouse gamers that only play whatever the big shooter was at the time and madden, and not that gamers were a monolith in the 1990s but those guys were the ones shoving you into lockers for reading nintendo power at school.
"Every character that can be romanced is potentially into your specific character" is a hard story contrivance to avoid for modern games, that's for sure.
Sometimes some people just aren't compatible in the living world and I hope more
eventually understand that no amount of "pressing the right button" can/should change that.

if the price is a significant issue for you comrade, its already been uploaded onto some Questionable Websites if you catch my meaning. i doubt larian is about to go under in the wake of this massive release, and your $60 wouldn't change it if they were
do you know by any chance how to change the language?,I tried changing ru_RU.utf-8 to en_EN.utf-8 in the scripts and did nothing

change "Russian" to "English"
I don't recall it ever being banned. This is the kind of
hopes to foster.I don't know all the details, but ~2018 the creator took the sub private, removed all the mods, then closed it. It was restored by reddit admins with a scab mod team like an hour later. I don't think it was banned or anything like that other than this from what I remember.
