    probably just a nazi that's too scared to fully reveal themselves (1488) so they only reveal themselves partially (88) to keep it ambiguous lel

    they're nowhere to be found when stuff like religious, traditionalist propaganda is "shoved down peoples' throat"

    i'm still getting baldur's gate 3 just probably once it's in a sale

      Being born in the late 80s is a minefield of "around my age or Nazi?" when it comes to user names and emails.

      Based on my experience about 60 hours in, you would need to explicitly choose to be gay to see really any gay romance in this game. Seems like this guy's version of having gay propaganda shoved down your throat is simply the presence of the choice to be gay

          i fucked like all my companions and then cut it down to minthara and astarion when they got too needy (problematic evil lady in skin tight black armor, and sassy gay vampire boy)

                  There is no limit to what you can do really. It's up to the DM to build narrative around your decisions. If there is some character you want to try and bang, you can try to bang them. It is pretty much a rite of passage in any DnD game that someone has sex whilst all the other players sit around and sremoved at them laying on the moves. Lol at the auto-filter removing one of my words. That isn't a bad word you fools!

                  Play D&D long enough and you'll inevitably have a campaign that features some level of erotic roleplay, usually in orgy form.

                  You'll also learn why good DMs tend to just fade-to-black that sort of thing, because unless everyone playing is really into that sort of thing it's going to get cringey very quickly.

                      good news it that a lot of people run pick up groups online! my former DM had recruited from discord, reddit, facebook, all over the place. but like with any gaming hobby there are super cringe people out there so it might take time and effort to find a group you like. my advice if you wanna try is to just take it slow and if anyone crosses your boundaries just peace out, there are plenty of folks out there who want to make their tables inviting to everyone.

                      it's infinitely better at an actual table of course, but online is still fun.

                    I'm really into that sort of thing and i still only want to play these parts via DMs with the few players i can comfortably do this with.

                      To be clear, I'm also really into that sort of thing, and I absolutely would never do it sitting at a table or over a Zoom call or whatever with a group. If you were running a campaign with your polycule, sure, go nuts, but otherwise it's just squick all around.

        Reminds me of the reactionary outrage around the Sims 4 gender options. All the fine-tuning gender settings are hidden in another menu past the basic male/female toggle, but that didn't stop chuds from clicking on it and getting mad because they saw a bunch of completely optional settings for different kinds of gender expression.

          you forgot one: updates

          this game is going to have a ton of updates and sometimes that's a pain in the ass to deal with when pirating

              I think they're adding in a way to change how your character looks, like a magic mirror or something, maybe more shit (here's hoping for the rest of the classes/spells/races from 5e!!). But as of right now, mostly bugfixes, and when a game is 100+gb there's gonna be a few bugs.

                  try to not spoil me with too much as i just got to act 2 (60 hours played btw). but i have read things about people saying the later chapters seem bare in comparison to the earlier content.

                      I’ve also heard Halsin isn’t as fleshed out (figuratively only ofc) outside the romance

                      spoiler

                      He has a short quest chain in act 2 and some dialogue about the events that caused the shadow curse. I can't recall if he does anything in act 3.

                      i think there is definitely some issue with Timing. i've read that earlier dev posts (from Act 1 EA era) that said things like romances would be complicated/take time to get to. meanwhile Gale wants to get down immediately after a day or two (not hating just kinda wild how practicing magic went sweat ). maybe bareback fucking isn't "romance" or maybe it is? if i compare it to idk like mass effect, those relationships took a lot of time to get anywhere near awooga territory (and those games didn't have a penis slider).

                      edit: tho the game in general is just super horny so idk
