>"uhhhh actually it's not woke at all!">check it out>it is - the - gayest game i have ever played>literally checks every box on the list of gay and retarded shit>"uhh yeah but you can kill everyone">presented with gay toga scene>can't skip it>can't kill anyone>have to sit there as my "guardian" awkwardly fumbles himself through me rejecting his homo advances>but it's not woke nuh uh!Are you out of your fucking minds?Why did you recommend this crap to me?how do you even rationalize this?
/v/ has been hijacked by leftists
Brony made another thread so quickly? The anons fucking with him on /vg/ must be being extra mean to him today.
acktually its not wokebecause woke would mean it was created specifically for virtue signalingwhereas larian is literally just filled to the brim with faggots who made faggot stuff because they're faggots
Everyone not mentally ill just played this game with some friends and enjoyed it as a good rng.Meanwhile people like OP see the reflection of their faggotry everywhere
How many years will this game make /v/ seethe? We're already at 3.
Game is super woke even by russian standards. Why is the doxed horse guy making so many bg3 threads today did something terrible happen to him?
>>750144771It's not woke because it didn't flop.
>>750144771Game is anti woke actually, soely because you can play a straight white male and reject all homoshit.Clearly OP coudn't resist and was forced to pick homoshit in his playthrough.
>>750145071>even by russian standards.what did he mean by this?
>>750145223Probably referencing how the OP is a russian lolcow that got doxed here.
>>750144771>my "guardian">himself
>>750145616KEK
>>750145616yeahguess whatI wouldn't have chosen a guy if the game was actually clear this is some retarded shiping mechanic in the beginning (the german version says nothing about "someone from your dreams" or whatever)
>>750145787>I had gay sex by mistakelel
>>750146820Even if it were so, the game really works on a shotgun principle with its homoerotic approaches. People caught so many strays that they even had to patch gale's dialoguebut yeah no it's not woke at all bro, sure
>>750147081If they patched it does that make them anti-woke?
>>750147264i guess it makes them bendoversQuite fitting for the adjusted content
>>750144771For me it's:John BaldursgateHuman MaleFighterKills Astarion with a stakeRomances Laezel
imagine being so mindbroken you're still "fighting" a culture war that was settled years ago which affects directly your enjoyment of videogames
>>750144771game was always woke but the problem with modern /v/ is that they only care about wokeness in regards of them doing a digital census on the inhabitants of the game world, ignoring the text of the work entirely. the main plot is entirely about freeing one's self from a parasite forced onto them, seeking bodily autonomy when the forces that be would strip them of it. even the side stories are about this, Astarion has Cazador, Shart has the shar cult, Karlach the infernal engine, Gale and the orb and so on. >>750144930I wish this was true because then maybe I'd be able to talk the content of a game instead of having to wade through surface level idpol and porn addicts crying 24/7
>>750144771It's woke. It's just also, from a gameplay perspective, a pretty good game. People criticizing woke games lost the plot, this is easily the exception that proves the rule. Woke elements in game were shit on because their presence was a reliable indicator that the people making the game cared more about pushing an agenda than making a good game. That never precluded the possibility of people who are woke having their primary desire be to make a good game, as is the case with BG3.
>>750147409for me it's dark urge drow sorceress and minthy is my futa wife!!
>>750147337you're the one that had gay sex with two guys anon
>>750144771>has option to kill everyone he doesn't like>lets them fuck him instead>"it's the woke devs fault you guys i don't even like cock in my ass">takes two moreYou know anon you are right. Faggots are a threat to you. If you can't even abstain from sucking cock in a video game, what chance do you have RL against real cocks? You're screwed. Possibly by a bear.
>>750147493>presence was a reliable indicator that the people making the game cared more about pushing an agenda than making a good gamethis has never made sense because the people who write the game are not the people designing gameplay systems man. gameplay being dumbed down and casualized is entirely on the people in charge trying to make a product for the lowest common denominator because they bloat dev cycles and scopes to insane degrees and need to generate infinite money in return. This used to be the common stance here, kind of wild to see it consumed by culture warriors.
>>750144975That's never been the case. It's "woke" because it presents a world full of niggers and faggots as normal and acceptable. You NEED the game to not be woke because on top of being successful, it's ultimately a good game. But you're going about it wrong. You see people touting a good woke game as proof that woke games are good, which is dishonest, and you also dishonestly try to classify it as not woke, or as not a good game, instead of maintaining the truth that woke elements are a reliable indicator that a game will be a piece of shit. But I get it, everyone's tired of trying to have an honest fight with dishonest jews and their leftist golems. Perhaps its time you realized that arguing isn't the way to defeat them.
it doesn't have anything like >>750106583 so people can tolerate itthat's literally all it takes
>>750144771I ended up playing this with a friend. The writing isn't very good, reeks of millennial theater kid. The gameplay is pretty shit too. Music wasn't very good, but the song that played during the fight with Raphael was ok. The faggot shit that it was actively trying to railroad you into even if you deliberately kept things platonic with characters was the last straw for me. People praising this game IMO haven't really played many video games so to them this is a 10/10, kind of like all the E33 players.
>>750147729it's woke because the game is entirely about freeing one's self from the chains of oppression forced onto them by the systems in place, overthrowing whatever organization that is holding you down as you revolt to obtain self actualization. you're exactly the kind of bozo I talked about in my previous post, too stupid to actually examine the text so instead you do a digital census.
>>750144771>Why did you recommend this crap to me?I didn’t but I’m glad you bought the gameYou can’t convince me that you actually played it and you can’t convince me that you didn’t pay full price for this masterpiece.
>>750148002post it then
>>750147723Yes anon, there's zero relation between the people who determine the message of the game and the people who code the game. There's certainly no game director who selected both of those teams. You disingenuously trying to talk about how things "used to be" is particularly insulting. These games either came from big companies whose corporate rainbow flag displays have always been in your face and annoying and were associated with shit poorly optimized coding and/or bland uninspired gameplay on top of the fag shit, or from smaller indie teams where THE MESSAGE was ABSOLUTELY central to the game's identity. Jump off the bridge, tranny.
>>750144771I like how wokies have to blow out of proportions how woke this game is because it sold well. THE WOKEST GAME EVER and shit. On the top of my head, games that are way more woke>Concord>Dustborn>Dragon Age Veilguard>Avowed>That one about the medieval lesbian>Gears of War E-DayMan I could go on but you get the picture, it's hilarious that after 3 whole years BG3 is still the one and only example of a woke game making any money, so I guess it has to be the wokest game ever right? We're gonna be in 2030 and it's still gonna be the only example. Oh and all those other woke failures actually failed because of gameplay or some shit, even though they all had stellar reviews.
>>750144771Who cares? the game design is top notch.Unironically the greatest Crpg of all time.
>>750147830>The faggot shit that it was actively trying to railroad you into even if you deliberately kept things platonic with characters was the last straw for meWhy does this happen every time?
>>750148194sure it didn't sweaty
>>750147729nah nigger i haven't even played the gamefrankly i don't give a shit about any of this especially since its the same fuckin thread for the last 3 years or whatlearn to take a joke
>>750147980No, you're an oversocialized faggot who thinks his environment has no impact on his experience. The very fact that you consider demographics as a non-impactful "digital census" simply shows what parts of the propaganda you've already not only consumed but fully embraced. Presenting a fantasy world loosely based off of medieval tropes as being full or faggots and niggers and having everyone think it's good and normal is absolutely taking a stance. A piece of media can say more than one thing. You're like a fish saying "what do you mean we're wet? This is normal," because you're so used to being in the water.
>>750147709Thank you for always attaching the picture when you post this retarded pasta, because it always cracks me up to see this guy so upset about all the gay shit that he has to play another 100 hours.
>>750148225>i actually don't care about anything and you need to know that everything is a jokeHelpful as always.
World of warcraft invented woke in gamingGarbage writing, DEI characters, horrible woke designs, no gameplay just look at it
game for trannies, fags and foidsthe trifecta of modern audiences
Ever since stepping into Baldur's Gate proper I've been assaulted with the ugliest women and "women" I've ever seen in gaming. Everyone is gay or some shade of brown, often both.
>>750144771Loved the game and I can't say it was "in your face" gay and retarded, but whatever this creature is sure took me by surprise.I suppose he/she/it is a transvestite? My first thought was of course "a woman with shitty makeup because it's like a joke or something". I guess I'm too slavic to be used to stuff like this.But overall the rest of the game was great.
It was successful so now we have to work backwards to make it not woke.
>>750148080correct, the people who are writing>we should be nice to each otherare not the ones handling how shooting feels, or how stats work and how they interact with the gameplay. This is easily observed via ME2, a game with great character writing being held back by a bad gears of war clone gameplay system. BG3 is the opposite, it has a genuinely very good sandbox, itemization and class customization but is held back by the generally lackluster main plot, and mixed bag of companions. There are few exceptions to this of course, Disco Elysium's skill system is pretty explicitly tied into the narrative but that game's gameplay IS the dialogue, so that makes sense. >duhhh the people put da wokes on the writing which means they put da wokes on the gameplay, and that makes it stinkyis elementary school reasoning, possibly even lower. You think wokeness is what is turning everything into an open world ubislop clone man? it's money grubbing trend chasing, simple as. Not everything is always tied to your single obsession, learn how to examine things from multiple different angles instead of being consumed wholly by 4chan idpol you troglodyte
>>750148482appropriate that she was a literal circus ringleader
>>750148457god I wish there was more to do with these bitches
>>750148271>you have to play it before criticizing!>you can't criticize because you played too much!
>>750148551>we should be nice to each other>JUST DO A BASIC FUCKING HUMAN EMPATHY CHUDWhy would I read past that?
>>750144771>you can do all this stuff!!>the combat is actually really fun!!>the story and mechanics are really complex!!Unfortunately when 80% of the game consists of cinematic dialogue - all of which is absolutely retarded beyond belief - it's just not fun. It's like being served a decent meal, but you have to eat it in a soiled bathroom full of shit and pissrust and a septic stench that'll give you pneumonia in minutes. The chaining system is also exceptionally clunky. A shame really, because I don't disagree with those things in the greentext, it's just that miasma of piss and shit that kills the appetite. It is really, really fucking gay - both figuratively and literally.
>>750148667Chud reading comprehension at workIt's not about the amount he played before review (but 120 hours is a looong time to realize a game is shit) but the amount played AFTER the review.
>>750148194It sold over 23 million copies lol cope and seethehttps://alineaanalytics.substack.com/p/how-well-have-past-goty-winners-sold
>>750148551>Disco Elysium's skill system is pretty explicitly tied into the narrative but that game's gameplay IS the dialogueDisco Elysium dialogue isn't well fleshed either, there could've been a lot more way to make branches in the plot, pretty much it goes nowhere but give you a snarky flavor.Outside of the dialogue the gameplay is extremely shallow, puzzles and exploration are just bad and poorly designed.ZA/UM are clearly amatuerish at game design and the writer is just a novelist.
>>750148551Discopiss is so fucking lame and pretentious it came as no surprise that the midwits of eastern europe who think themselves patrician and smart, masturbate to the thought of its plot and dialogue.
>>750148726Whats wrong with the dialogue? its pretty good, sure its not perfect but to say its bad is genuinely retarded, the dialogue is head and shoulders above a lot of games.I'd give the dialogue a solid 8/10 while the rest of the game gets 9 and 10 across the board.
>>750148235>you're propagandized - man who has been convinced that you're not allowed to have minorities in dungeons and dragonsD&D is not a reflection of real history anon, it is in fact good and normal to have all sorts of races and lifestyles reflected in a game about creating fictional characters that are different races and live different lifestyles! >elfs dwarves drow gnomes halfings and humans are all fine, until one of them is BLACKlike you're stupid. just a big stinky moron. sorry.
>>750148827> Actually one of the most acclaimed and best selling narrative games of late is badly writtenYou people will say the most retarded shit just to be contrarian
>call a sandbox rpg where you can do anything woke just because you can choose to be a faggotSo this is the power of media literacy....
>>750147540why two?
>>750144771Yup. Not even Realms Restored can fix this POZ of shit.
>>750149058WTF? i didn't say it was badly written.
>>750149069Did you see how Proxy killed the huge tree with one shot? the trick was insane. No other CRPG has depth in its game design like this.
>>750148991The logic, the reasoning, the shoehorning and the lack of sensible dialogue choices in many places.The cinematic slog effect; animation is always slow, meaning voice delivery will be slow, meaning shit will take forever; you end up clicking and clicking skipping and skipping because you read five times faster than they speak and it's all worthless nonsense anyway. The voice acting is annoying, because everyone is written as very, very unlikeable idiots.The dialogue is nufaggotry. Give me a fucking dialogue box and a next-button instead of this dumb shit.I'd piss in your nostrils while you sleep/10
>>750144771>not woke at allcorrect
Yeah, not a big surprise.Somehow all the 'based' and 'anti-woke' games the 'chuds' shill on /v/ are extremely woke and gay.
Over 3 years since BG3 released and /v/ still throws a shit fit over the game. I wonder how much longer you'll keep being mad.
>>750149383you lost tranny
>>750148109Yeah, I'm aware that the second some woke game actually becomes popular you need to pretend that erm actually it's heccin based and stuff. You'd suck off any of the games you mentioned if it became highly mainstream.
>>750148680you shouldn't because you are clearly unable to hang in this discussion so I'll let you go back to taking digital censuses like the good lil outrage warrior you are
>>750144771you choose a male guarding you fucking faggot?
>>750149315Sounds like a subjective issue to me. Outside of some interactions with Wyll and the Emperor, the dialogue is mostly pretty good. Voice acting depends on the character but I'd say Laezel, Shadowheart, Astarion, The Narrator, Raphael and Ketheric all did a good job.I get what you mean with the animation if you are comparing it to like The Last of Us 2 or something, yeah BG3 is not a movie game, its not going ALL IN on cinematics, but its there to make you relate to the characters more, no wonder people relate more to BG3 characters than DOS2 characters, it helps elevate the character to you.This hyperbole about the plot or the writing is just retarded reddit hugbox shit, the dialogue is not bad by any means, you're not being serious if you say this.Like yeah the gameplay and the world design are the highlight of the game, they are the best part by a good margin, but the writing is also pretty solid.
me OP, me straight white male, me big whiny bitch, mentally incapable leaving politics at door
>>750148991>Whats wrong with the dialogue?The major thing I had was in Act 1 where all your companions at some point want to have sex with you out of nowhere. There was no romantic buildup most of your companions literally just want to fuck you. Shadowheart who is probably the most insular and closed off in Act 1, gets drunk at the party and immedietly wants to fuck you. Gale wants to fuck you. La'zel wants to fuck you. Point being they all want to fuck you for really no legitimate reason other than fan service by Larian.I can understand if it happened in Act 3 since that is hundreds of hours in but we are talking about right in the beginning of the game. Especially when there is conflict with the group still.
>>750148827I think it does a pretty good job on the dice roll stuff personally. It's clearly still an indie game in scope so big breaks in narrative pathing aren't really a thing like in say, The Witcher 2 but it does do a very good job of making your harry's feel different with your builds. they did a very good job of fleshing out each flavor of cop, which is arguably the main focus of the game, with the mystery being just a narrative device to get Harry to interact with the people in the setting with some level of authority.
>>750149426Tranny game.>>750149657But enough about the dev team who got upset when they saw all the generic white male player characters. Aside from the fact that Larian isn't straight.
>>750149850>But enough about the dev team who got upset when they saw all the generic white male player charactersNot you again.
>>750149617>opinion is subjectiveI'm not even reading the rest of your post. Imagine saying something so palpably stupid
>>750149705Yeah sorry anon but thats not really an issue now is it? One night stands are pretty common, when the characters sleep with you in BG3 they don't automatically become your partner, you just have sex with whoever is attracted to you, since its a game and not real life you click some dialogue options to gain prestige and then you fuck, its like 5% if not less of the character interactions. You choose your partner later in the game, but since this is a game its doomed to have shallow romance system, there's no RPG with deep romance anon, just go watch a movie or some tvshow. I pretty much think it would be a waste of time if they made a genuine deep build up for every possible romance, in fact i'd be fine if they cut romance entirely.I bet you are a Bioware fan.
>>750148897you are so bad at reading that you see the relatively banal statement of >disco elysium is an example of where the writing and mechanics of the game are very intertwinedas some kind of masturbation over the game's quality and not just a basic observation on the game itself. you're just trying to divert the discussion off the actual subject, or are obsessed with the game and start barking like a poorly trained dog at the sight of the words Disco Elysium
>>750149910No idea who you think I am now. But what I mentioned will never be erased.Larian aren't based, they're faggots who hate white people. Simple.
>>750149980When you see a leper, you must spit. That is all
>>750149924Not everything is subjective. But not liking the character for their tone or voice or delivery is indeed very subjective. Even the subjective part has a consensus, like let me ask you what did you think of Neil Newborn performance of Astarion? do you think he deserved the awards he got?
>>750149945>Yeah sorry anon but thats not really an issue now is it?It is. It's merely in the game to service the player. >there's no RPG with deep romance anon>a game where it's vidya d&d and doesn't have romance>in fact i'd be fine if they cut romance entirely.I actually agree. I turned down all the companions when they wanted to fuck because it was so random.>I bet you are a Bioware fan.I only played kotor and it btfos this shit
>>750150114Why do you write like a faggot, like, fuck, like, you, nigger
>>750148991nta but I think the character writing is mostly good, there are some duds companion wise like Wyll and Halsin is kind of boring too (also can't stand the BG1/2 holdovers but they're so nonexistent character wise it doesn't really matter too much)the bulk of the writing issues is that the main plot is just not very interesting, and the big bad's motivations are very mundane and one dimensional >I am evil because the power promised to me will allow me to save and protect my loved ones, but will also turn those loved ones against me>I want to rule da world>I like stabbing things
>>750148991>every character is a quirk chungus special OC that is somehow totally important in the world and oh yeah the mage also slept with a goddess and is totally well known to elminster - in fact he is his student>I'd give the dialogue a solid 8/10millenials need to be strangled to death
>>750150020>Larian is anti-white because they called the collection of most popular early access customisation choices, which ended up looking like default vault dweller, default vault dweller.
>>750150206>I like stabbing thingsI hate that I know exactly who you're referring to. What a shit fucking game. "omg best gameplay EVER" and the combat's RNG is dogshit, you cap out at Lvl 14/15, and WOW you can interact with some ENVIRONMENTAL TRAPS!!!! 10/10 fuck I hate goyim.
don't care, the game is fun
>>750150340Yes, Larian are anti-white because they chose to act outraged over the fact that straight white men playing their game were making white man characters and not quirky nigger OC's.
>>750150406Going from WOTR to BG3 and back shows just how much deeper BG3 is despite having less options at a glance.
generously plapping lae'zel
>>750150406sorry but RNG barely matters in the later stages, if you aren't boosting your spell DCs or attack rolls into thresholds where you're basically always hitting 19 out of 20 dice rolls you're bad at the game. by the time act 1 has ended you should be an unstoppable demigod
>>750149046>D&D is not a reflection of real history anon, it is in fact good and normal to have all sorts of races and lifestyles reflected in a game about creating fictional characters that are different races and live different lifestyles!this was the first and foremost step to shitting up DnD cause it required you to suspend your disbelief on how races came to be and why not every place in the world looks like downtown LA>but what about them dragons - it's fantasy!!dragons follow fantasy rules cause dragons dont existmaking up arbitrary nonsense about demographic composition in a technologically medieval peasant society is rubbish and only fucking idiots don't question it
>>750150206Yeah but basic =/= bad especially when the game is being gamey and not trying to force an abstract at you. For example Witcher 3 is a bigger culprit of this problem because it presents it self as a mature story-driven game, and the game all the time tries to present the grey spot of morality. Yet the villains in Witcher 3 are all shallow and underdeveloped & are very basic.The same applies to most other RPGs I agree that they are not interesting villains, but i don't think they were designed to be interesting in the first place.What kind of villains you like in RPGs? I can count only on one hand the amount of interesting and unique villains.
>>750150340Have you ever gone a single day without being a complete joke?Larian is antiwhite - and you by proxy is as well, in your denial of the fact. If you are white, this is very sad and I can only wonder if your self-esteem is obliterated. Have some dignity; you are allowed to not rim each and every non-white entity you can conceive of. There is nothing hateful in that. You god damn nigger :^)
>>750150425>Larian are anti-white because they described what looked like default vault dweller and default vault dweller.
>>750150406Look at this retard. Jestermaxxing?
>>750150575>if you aren't boosting your spell DCs or attack rollsDid that, failing rolls at 80 - 90% made XCOM look fair in comparison. shit combat, shit game.
>>750150659Euphemisms does not change facts, you faggot
>>750150273How do you proclaim they are important to the world if you can ignore them, even kill them and finish the game? Seems like you checkmated yourself
>>750150580>in a technologically medieval peasant societyexcept this isn't the case because there is magic anon! people can fucking teleport, fly, travel to different dimensions. Like I'm sorry you can't suspend your disbelief and think D&D should adhere to historical realism, perhaps you should seek out a different genre of game to enjoy.
>>750150747>Facts are whatever I imagine them to be because I am easily offended.
>>750150830Your apathy is not a virtue, you antiwhite mongrel
>>750150730>Did that, failing rolls at 80 - 90% made XCOM look fair in comparison.only an insane person could possibly think this. sorry you're so bored you get your kicks by acting like a moron for negative internet attention.
>>750150912Deep inside, you will rage, alone in the worldBelieve in what you know is true'Cause you believe it's brave!Twist of fate,Even though it's colder than death, you'll break everything.So everything broken is brave!
>larian literally does every single thing retards on /v/ hate westoid devs for, including the meme skin disease, pronouns and 'body type' shit>But you can't point that out or call them faggots because the game became a huge hit with normalfags and hating it is 'contrarian' or somethingI guess ResetEra found the right strategy for infiltrating /v/.
>>750150415This
>>750150827Larian chose to proudly include mocap gay sex.
>>750151073>But you can't point that out??? This is all you shallow faggots ever do?
>>750151026You're gayer than newgrounds
>>750151073But that's all you do, those actually criticising the game proper are a minority.
>>750151073ResetEra doesn't like Baldur's Gate 3Where did you get the idea that they liked it? If im not mistaken they voted Tears of the Kingdom for Game of the Year! lolI mean i like TOTK but its nowhere near BG3 imo. especially considering it has this huge map and it recycles like 75% of it. Game wore off its new schtick quickly. Great traversal system though.
>>750151162>>750151256And then you faggots start bitching and moaning and defending this woke eurotrash studio.
>>750151446>ResetEra doesn't like Baldur's Gate 3Yes yes, I'm sure they HATED a game that was so proud about its diveristy and faggotry and proudly represented every single thing the 'modern audience' wants apparently.
>>750151073>meme skin disease, pronouns and 'body type' shityou realize none of that matters when the game is good, people start noticing these things because they are bored with a game
>>750151470I never defended the woke. I'll say it in caps.BALDURS GATE 3 AND LARIAN ARE WOKE AF I dont deny its woke, i just admit its a great video game, it has excellent design and well made content. FACT over FEELING.
>>750151446ResetEra called Larian Hitler if i am not mistaken. Those trannies are insane.
>>750151470>nooo let me whine about the same shit 24/7 with no opposition or criticism one hugbox coming right up sir
>>750151470You BITCH FAGGOTS cry whenever somebody argues against you. Do you just expect people to just always agree with you?
>>750144771you type like a faggot and your opinions are worthless
>>750151582>>750151537Nah they dont hate the game, they just dont like it enough.Pretty sure on ResetEra games like Witcher 3, Mass Effect 2 and Elden Ring are the dominate RPGs, and Breath of the Wild, The Last of Us and Final Fantasy 7/Chrono Trigger are considered to be the best games.ResetEra is just console normies, mid 30s gamers who grew up with Japanese games. They larp for the woke games, but they rarely choose them, the only instance they choose a woke game was The Last of Us 2 because its was a big exclusive.
bg3 is a chud game that serves the male gaze
>>750151562that's why this place always bitches about this stuff, because they're always bored and don't play any games
>>750150782>How do you proclaim they are important to the world if you can ignore themone of them has a "nuke" in his chest literally telling you he would take out a good chunk of the sword coast if you didn't feed him heckin magical yum yums.stop acting like a dumbassthe main problem with all these characters is that literally every single one is supposedly super-duper special. it's the type of roleplay you'd find on a second life server, written by some fat middle aged woman living off welfare in a flyover state. It does not have nuance, it does not have moderation, it does not have any form of subtlety - it is all "this is my special character and he is a demon and he is a vampire and he is the lover of a god and he is a nigger or whatever and he is totally important and you now have to pay attention to him"it's high school level fan fiction style writingbut you are right when you say: "well you can just ignore them"cause despite all the promises of the characters background, the game basically never delivers on anythingit's all hot air - and that's the next problem with the fucking writingand maybe a good indication on why the fuck you shouldn't do this in the first place.it announces itself with great fanfare and immediately deflates with a soft long fartit's complete crap>>750150820>muh magicffffffffffuuuuuck off you mongoloida normal peasant does NOT have access to such magic in the forgotten realms fuck youfuck you a thousand times you cretindimension portal is what? A level 6 or 7 spell?you people are such disingenious cunts it's unbelievableand it's always the same stupid fucking argument too. You already know that you are wrong, but you are still trying it cause, you hope, maybe, the other side is stupid enough to be steamrolled by your shallow, ankle-deep bullshit arguments you really belong in a mass grave you fucking degenerate youfuck you
>>750151562Nice kick. How about this?
>>750151923>magic don't count cus I say so>man you guys are bad at arguing!lol
>>750151562>>750151579THANKS FOR PROVING MY POINT HOLY SHIT LOLYou faggots would suck off every single one of these woke games - Veilguard, Dustborn, Wolverine, the new Gears of War - if they got massively sucked off by the industry and normalfaggots like it happened with BG3. In the end this piece of shit board only cares about popularity, not some stance on 'wokeness'. It's all "go woke go broke lol" until disliking a woke game makes you contrarian.
>>750151923>if you didn't feed him heckin magical yum yums.Just Cut his hand and leave him to die.>all these characters is that literally every single one is supposedly super-duper specialAs i said they are not really important, but they were given something special because they are called origin characters, which means they can be played as a main character for the story.Besides Astarion for example is not really special, he is just a slave.>it announces itself with great fanfare is this your first Larian game? you take this shit too seriously man, this is a gamey game, its a fun rpg. its not your mental therapy session, its not your history class book, its not a social experiment on the human psychology. Its a DnD simulation with fun gameplay and fun little adventure, nobody ever made the claim that Larian games have deep writing. baka
>>750151937BAHGAWD BAHGAWD
>>750152187there are plenty of popular games that I don't like, BG3 is simply a good game and one of the best CRPGs ever made
>>750152107the fuck are you on about?a peasant does not have level 6 teleportation spellsand even if he had arcane gate only works on sight - not accross half the world. nigger did you think i don't know the fucking game this is based on?so yeah magic is a fucking retarded explanation, you are dumbass and you can fucking deal with it you mongoloid
>>750152187Veilguard is bad is because it's a bad game on most levels, if it was popular I'd have to question what niggas be smoking cus that shit is ass. We can't even discuss why it's bad here because people will just beeline for the progressive stuff as if that inherently makes something bad and not the poor quality of the game and it's cast.
>>750152187I think all you've done here is reveal that you think people operate solely on bandwagoning, likely because that is how you interact with the hobby yourself.
>>750152209>it's supposed to be shitk
>>750151923Gale and Wyll are the only "special" party members, and Wyll is only special because of who his daddy is (and that's a fairly mundane backstory detail as these things go). Lae'zel is a rank and file gith soldier, Shart is a low-rung cleric, Karlach is a competent soldier but ultimately just one of thousands like her, Astarion is one of dozens of thralls just like him, not even a full vampire.
>>750152187I hated all those games except. Veilguard: Bad gameplay and i dont like Bioware game design that much. The story was a downgrade from Origins and Mass Effect. So there's nothing left to enjoy. Also bad art style, i didnt like it.Dustborn: Didnt bother to play this slop, its not even a game right?Wolverine: Game literally plays itself and i hate CapeshitNew Gears of War: I used to enjoy Gears in the high school, when i played 1 and 2, 3 released by the time i graduated, but it was decent cover shooter game, just 3/5 for me though.Since then i never bothered to try the games, these games like Gears and Call of Duty lost their appeal to me. I'm more interested with good game design that doesn't feel generic or outdated. Xbox games tend to age poorly and are just not really that interesting to me.
>>750152532veilguard sucks because they completely and totally neutered tevinter as a setting, and we'll never be able to actually discuss that because everyone here are subhuman single celled organisms trained to kneejerk react at anything and everything and insist on circlejerking over that one scene over and over because that's all they know how to do
>>750152532Veilguard has that signature Bioware game design. Shallow level design where you walk in corridors, bad side quests, bad and outdated gameplay, ugly looking graphics, generic plot.Pretty much all Bioware ever did well was the cast, in ME and DAO and BG2 you had some nice characters to meet. Like with companions they are some of the best in RPGs. With choice and consequences they are ok but not as good as Obsidian or CDPR. But everything else? they are mid. No wonder all their games age poorly. Bioware lost to themselves and to the competition, they didnt evolve. CDPR in particular killed Bioware, they took over their niche, and now with Larian taking over party based Crpgs, they have no other use, they realize this and they shut down. Talent left and nobody can measure up, better to let it rest at this point.
>>750152480a peasant can be teleported by others, and the sword coast is a massive trade hub where people sail to BG literally all the time. of course it's going to have a diverse cast of characters because it isn't an isolated ethnostate, it's one of the biggest trade hubs in the entire setting! It's the equivalent of like, any major american city, a melting pot of travelers and traders. Magic being the setting just means that certain means of travel that wasn't historically available in the real world, are available to the people of that setting. The whole opening of the game is that an interdimensional ship has been kidnapping people of all walks of life and crash lands on the sword coast!
>>750152903It sucks for a lot of reasons, and the god awful characters and writing are two of them
Yeah it's garbage.Anything dungeons and dragons is flooded with deranged gay sex obsessed faggotry for some reason even more so than other things.
>>750153114>Bioware lost to themselves and to the competition,yep, they should've rode the momentum DAI gave them to make dreadwolf immediately, instead they made the worst Mass Effect and a horrible GaaS title nobody played. by the time they finally put VG out, the genre had been filled with other much more enjoyable titles.
>>750153269DAI was well received for few months until Witcher 3 came out and ruined it legacy immediately, at that time it was okay for Bioware since they were expected to make the next big Mass Effect, but it turned out to be a disappointment, then with Anthem they shit the bed again, and with Veilguard they were doomed cause Larian just released a huge game 1 year before them.Bioware couldn't keep up, every year something groundbreaking was being made and they were stuck behind in the Xbox360 days, they thought all it takes will be to appeal to modern audiences and it will work, but it didnt. Bethesda is also going down the same path, but they are bigger and can afford some more Ls they also have Skyrim which keeps holding their back, but not for long.As with Bethesda their niche is somewhat safe, not many RPGs are doing open world bethesda style, but now Warhorse and CDPR are starting to come near their territory.Todd should wake up before its too late (he won't)
>>750144771Gunna cry?
There feels like a huge dynamic shift between act one and act 3.
>>750144771Why did YOU fall for the idiotic nonsense of failed normalfaggots and broken male neocons? Me and the others told you multiple times it's pozzed garbage that you shouldn't be even considering. You listened to the most retarded gay niggers on this website but not us? Well fucking done, dumbass.
>>750144930God I wish that was true.
>>750145616>>750146820>Your "dream girl" turns out to be a gay mindflayer>We're not the ones shoveling gay shit into your playthrough, nuh-uh, no sir!
>>750153640makes sense, act 2 ends with you icing the avatar of a death god after all. Act 1 is you scraping together what you can from level 1, and act 3 is basically just cleaning up the bad guys. >>750153653yeah we'd be able to actually talk about videogames instead of everyone using them as a soapbox to cry about liberals 24/7. this place is basically unmoderated right wing retardera
>>750153508Bethesda makes bad RPGs too, they literally only scrape by because sandbox open worlds appeal to normies really well, that's why the open world meme is still in full swing, that's why GTA (and RDR2) is such a big deal, that's why Nintendo and Sony keep putting out open world Ubisloppa. Open world is the new "This need's a live action movie adaptation."
>>750153773>wtf why is this soulless creature that cares only about self preservation trying to use sex to manipulate me?????I'd figured you'd like this portrayal because it's clear that the sex here is a manipulation tactic to trick you, but no you're too stupid to even breach the kiddy pool in depth here.
>>750153849I know, i agree with you.They seem to forgot how to make them though, i mean Starfield was far from Fallout 4 let alone Skyrim
>>750144930The two responses to this proving you right is pretty funnyBut yeah, they're everywhere now, it's harder to filter them out nowadays
>>750148143That would still be Disco Elysium, but BG3 is a strong contender
>>750153949starfield baffles me because bethesda's singular strength from skyrim and beyond has always been the open world map design, and starfield just...threw that all out for procedural slop. people play these games to explore handcrafted worlds at their own leisure and starfield just gutted that entirely, leaving only the bad combat and worse writing to fill the gap.
>>750153949Starfield is exactly what FO4 was leading up to in terms of story, roleplay mechanics and exploration. Todd got too ambitious and didn't think too hard about how to fully realise open world space exploration, especially with the creation engine being shit. He made a shittier version of No Man's Sky with a shitty tacked on RPG. Oh and you're the Dragonbo-- I mean Starborn too.
>>750153773I am damn sure it was supposed to be something else then they changed it to the emperor. Imagine if she was an outer god
>>750150915If my 80 - 90% chance of hitting is still not enough and I am missing at least a third of my rolls even after acquiring abilities to effectively roll twice for a higher number, I can't envision an honest argument for why that is somehow my fault if I've been aiming to give my character the most opportunities to land hits. It's not my problem. It's not a good game.
>>750148143>the game design is top notch>based on dnd
>>750154537you are either a massive lucklet, or lying. I am choosing the latter, because statistically you aren't missing that often.
>OP could have played as an ultra chad solo player who only takes women into his party (harem) and kills every male character he encounters on the off chance they might be a fag. >instead he sucks cock nonstop and blames the devs for tempting him
>>750154656>he's lying!Yes, let me make up more reasons to hate a game I purchased that I wanted to like, spent too much money on, and time that I'll never get back. At the very least I expected the gameplay to be good, and it couldn't even do that right.
>>750154926what's the cat drinking
>>750154926if missing in a game with RNG is so negatively affecting for you why did you buy a game that has dice roll combat and why did you expect to like it?
>>750155157blue powerade
>>750155232fancy as fuck, no cat should eat that well.
>>750153773Mindflayers can't be gay.
>>750153921>>wtf why is this soulless creature that cares only about self preservation trying to use sex to manipulate me?????>I'd figured you'd like this portrayal because it's clear that the sex here is a manipulation tactic to trick you, but no you're too stupid to even breach the kiddy pool in depth here.
>>750155539>I hate the gays they are predators!>misses the predator using homosexuality as a tool to prey on youI'm sorry your head was used as as basketball during infancy
>>750155539I fucking love this webm, it's unironically impressive that he does those flips in heels. That being said, yeah, the Emperor was originally meant to be the tadpole in your head trying to convince you to give in. Then they changed it to the Emperor who's still trying to manipulate you but only into using more tadpole powers. While he does share your goal of killing the elder brain he isn't portrayed as a good guy and threatens you if you call him out.
>>750144771>woke is badwhat woke even meant. lack of censorship, is what you mean ? i never liked how everything was suposed to be a metaphor and the edgiest shit you could do was blood, guts and thongs.
>>750155501by denying mindflayer gayness I will also need to deny that one female mind flayer who got raped into becoming LG, from Book of Exalted Deeds.So The Emperor has to be a gaylord if I am to have female squid saint tits (atrophied).
>>750145787>>750147081Game prompts you to create a guardian and says its "Someone from your dreams"...Anon why tf did you make a man? I made my waifu
>>750144771this is the biggest shilled game ever
>>750150659If the most popular character was a black male, Larian would NEVER mention the ethnicity. Because they're nigger worshipers.
pretty gay how many mods are exclusive to weak male and weak female
>>750144771I've noticed a pattern that leftists keep calling "the wokest game ever" to anything that's remotely successful.
>>750144771i'm just surprised the game did well at all when its gameplay is fucking shit. its clunky turn based combat, the kind you'd see 20 years ago. the open world is lame and its just clicking on shit in an empty area to find items then going somewhere else. the writing is bad, its like witcher and lord of the rings, something non-gamers who pretend to read books like.
>>750158794>default vault dweller is an ethnicity.
>>750158954funny, I've noticed you guy claiming all flops are woke too. almost as if both extremes are ignoring games to engage in some kind of cultural flame war
>>750144771The game is mechanically good in spite of the gay shit. It's like trying to play Magic the Gathering: the game is still the same old tabletop game. The fact that it's Marvel Superheroes and Lord of the Rings is very not okay, but it's still that good game at the core.It's that sort of feeling where you're tolerating the bad because the good parts win out.also, people at that point in time still thought there was such a thing as a "good gay". How naive we were.
>>750147830>>750159145It's the only good WRPG ever made.
>>750159219>N-no dude you're exaggerating, it's just COHENncidence that they mentioned that the characters were White.Race only matters when it's convenient.
>>750159853Larian didn't mean anything hateful by it, mentally ill people are just surprised when they find out other people aren't mentally ill like them.
>>750159853>doubling down on default vault dweller being an ethnicity.
>>750160049>>750160168I have pattern recognition, it's not my problem that you refuse to see it. A game as pozzed as BG3 having anti-White developers isn't a wild stretch.
>>750160635You don't have pattern recognition, you didn't even read the original update which is why you think describing something as "default vault dweller" is being anti white.
>>750159324>you guys>almost as ifWhy are you even here? Just go back.Otherwise perhaps you should look at why BG3 succeeded and why shit like Veilguard and Concord continue to flop.
>>750153773It's literally why I kill the Emperor every single fucking time. Once you find out the truth about his true form and imprisonment of Orpheus, there is literally no reason to side with him.
>>750160878>you're either a 4channeler or you're a FILTHY OUTSIDERobviously I am referring to the subgroup of right wing outrage addicted crybabies whose entire life is crying about american idpol on a videogame image board. sorry but if you think 4chan is a monolith of thought you're sorely mistaken, we used to mock the notion of "we are legion" yet people here seem to accept that as fact. funny stuff. and BG3 succeeded because it was a good game that is fun to play, and Veilguard and Concord were not.
>>750155664>>I hate the gays they are predators!>>misses the predator using homosexuality as a tool to prey on you>I'm sorry your head was used as as basketball during infancy
>>750144771Are leftoids still pretending woke and DEI arent a thing or have they moved on to>if it were real, it would be good!Or>it is real, and its a good thing!
>>750160908eh that's the problem with metagaming I'm afraid, because blind letting Orpheus free is a very risky choice that could end up with your transformation occurring on the spot if he chooses to drop the protection from the big brain. but once you know that risk basically doesn't exist like yeah, of course I'll take the help of a powerful gith sworn to wage war against the mindflayers as my ally instead of most manipulative character in the game.
>>750161056>>you're either a 4channeler or you're a FILTHY OUTSIDER>obviously I am referring to the subgroup of right wing outrage addicted crybabies whose entire life is crying about american idpol on a videogame image board. sorry but if you think 4chan is a monolith of thought you're sorely mistaken, we used to mock the notion of "we are legion" yet people here seem to accept that as fact. funny stuff. and BG3 succeeded because it was a good game that is fun to play, and Veilguard and Concord were not.
>>750161123how large is your gay and transsexual video folder anon? you seem to have quite a few videos ready to go at a moment's notice.
I just found out shadowheart can try to cuck you with halsin wtf
>>750161439Not that large. Think it's like half a dozen vids. Why? Are you one of those projecting browns who can't fathom someone having a video of something he dislikes on his computer?
>>750161987>who can't fathom someone having a video of something he dislikes on his computer?Yes, why would you do that? You're not even using them as examples for any arguments or anything you're just using them the same way a soijakfag uses soijaks but somehow with less taste.
>>750162186>Yes, why would you do that?To show hostile intent. How are you THIS unintelligent that you can't comprehend very basic human interactions?>You're not even using them as examples for any arguments or anything you're just using them the same way a soijakfag uses soijaksIndeed. The kind of input that warrants these webms is unworthy of arguments.>but somehow with less taste.Seething, coping, and quite likely dilating.
I like the part where not letting refugees squat in some guy's house paints you as being comically evil.

>>750162336>to show hostile intentbut all you're doing is showcasing your own mental illness. nobody is intimidated by gayonetta.webm lmao
>>750144771Passed 22 million sales nowThis makes the Bioware closure all the more sad. What if in an alternate timeline Bioware didn't abandon what made them originally good (and they weren't bought out by EA)
>>750144930Nice try with the gaslighting, but I'm like a fifth generational warfare expert.
>>750162407>intimidatedAnother idiotic projection entirely divorced from reality. This is why nobody argues with you. Be thankful I graced you with my superior wisdom for as long as I did, it ends now.
