It has like the gayest, most annoying characters of all time.Are BG1 and 2 any better?
>>722527864BG2 is the inception of bioware social party and romance shit that this game was apeing also those gay and annoying characters are common for the 5e/critical role types
>>722527864>Are BG1 and 2 any better?Yes.
>>722527864It's was hyped to no end, casuals wanted to be a part of something big but they missed skyrim and never got into cp77 and this game is basically a visual novel with extremely generic fantasy setting and dumb gameplay, of course it's popular with normies. Except 75% of them on steam never even finished the game, I'm pretty sure a lot of gurrl gamers just here for pretty picture too No sane rpg player find this game good
>>722527864>Mobile game interface and inventory management>Strong start devolving into a shitfest>Insufferable writing for any evil playthrough>Unbalanced skillsetsAnd all you thought of was the stupid characters? There are mods to switch that cancer off, but you can't switch off the plot.
>>722527864>play Dark Urge Warlock, realize multiclassing into Sorcerer might be cool since they're both CHA casters>Sorcery Points>can't Twin Eldritch Blast (expected)>can't Twin Ice Knife (unexpected)>but CAN twin Chromatic Orb (?????)>CAN twin Misty Step (???????)>but obviously it does nothing>supposedly can twin Animate Servant>"sweet, TWO undead pets?">try it on two corpses right next to eachother>doesn't work but wastes my Sorcery points>whatever, I guess I can just eat Warlock slots for Sorcery Points whenever I have any leftover before a short rest>all goes well until normal spell slots reach the same as Warlock spell slots>Sorcery Point conversion doesn't allow you to pick between them separately and prioritizes the normal ones over Warlock ones>supposedly a bug that never got fixed Bonus:>get Slayer transformation>"neat, I guess I can cast a Concentration spell then shift into it or something">upon shifting out none of my fucking items work and I have to re-equip all of them to get their passives back>apparently this bug has been around for 2 years and never been fixedI don't hate the game, but every time I run into shit like this it absolutely infuriates me. I want to kill my friend that told me "no man it's different from other Larian games, it's actually finished and polished and amazing".
Ask Reddit wumao. Noone cares here.
>>722527864>It has like the gayest, most annoying characters of all time.They're at worst mildly annoying and gay. "All time" is an absurd exaggeration.
>>722533170In a production like this?I wouldn't say that's an exaggeration.Sure there is Saints Row but that ain't no Baldurs Gate level of popularity.
It flopped actually
