Some early lower priority camp scenes can also be missed if higher priority ones are queued. To advance companion quests or romances, make sure to long rest often.>Q: Can I recruit Minthara without going down the evil path?>A: If you knock her out in Act 1, yes. You do miss out on the sex scene, but otherwise the romance remains the same.>Q: Underdark or Mountain Pass?>A: Either, or both. It's recommended to clear both on higher difficulties for the experience and loot. Both connect to the same Act 2 map.>Q: Is The Dark Urge essentially "Tav+"?>A: Yes. You get additional content, BUT there are points where, if you've chosen to resist the Urge and/or don't complete quests the "right" way, you'll have to pass additional checks to avoid losing companions.>Q: Are there any consequences to consuming tadpoles?>A: No, for the most part. However if you've consumed any tadpoles, there will later be a DC 21 Wisdom check to reject the Astral-Touched Tadpole, which affects your appearance if consumed.>Q: Should I enable Karmic Dice?>A: Karmic Dice will avoid streaks of low rolls, both for you and the enemy. It is recommended to disable it if you're specializing.>Polls:>Romance: https://strawpoll.com/NMnQ5kJXYn6>Race: https://strawpoll.com/kjn18WPzeyQ>Class: https://strawpoll.com/eNg69DKKjnA>Companions: https://strawpoll.com/bVg8o8l3VnYOP pasta: https://rentry.org/bggpastaPrevious thread: >>559535469

I guess my favorite characters are Mizora, Kagha, and Arabella.
>>559795910minthara is a bisexual WHORE
Did Bhaal have sex with Amelyssan?
Let's talk about what larian should learn from bg3's success for their upcoming masterpiece divinity
>>559796082People want erotic content, and the more of it you have and advertise having the more success you'll meet. People will forgive a thousand problems for a single waifu with a well designed vagina.
>>559796082Boob physics would be a definite improvement, swinging dicks are already a thing in BG3.
>>559795951trve!
>>559796367Cute durgeicky butler
>>559795951In all seriousness this is just something people say because they're mad at the namefag and want to lash out. It has no realistic basis in the lore or how the character is portrayed, or speculating logically about it. It's just as much a shitpost as anything else here.
>>559795953Hold on, let me watch some hours-long lore videos about Bhaal, Sarevok, and Amelyssan first, then I'll have an answer for you.
>>559796545>It has no realistic basiswhat does this even mean? both male and females can romance her.
>>559795853What is the most unforgiveable piece of cut content to you? Gameplay only since we've talked about story stuff to death.For me, it's the omission of darts, throwing knives and slings, which would have been a fantastic way to even out martial ranged weapons. They cucked me out of being able to LARP as David.
Planning a Deep Gnome Supremacist run. Wulbren is right; its time to kill THE FUCKING GONDIANS.But the good fight against THE FUCKING GONDIANS will need allies. Who should I recruit? Who should I ally?Obviously I'll have to save Barcus even though he's a lil' bitch because he's kin. Plus he won't save THE FUCKING GONDIANS if I kill them first
>>559796662That's a gameplay contrivance. Minthara can also respec as a wizard while clearly voicing her disdain for wizards. You have to separate the canon story and lore from gameplay.
>>559796754Manlet rage
>>559796743Removing magic circle since it's already in-game and works perfectly fine if you reenable it. Seemingly cut for no real reason.
>>559796783Speaking of which, has anyone played Minsc as a wizard?
>>559796537POV: you just said that in a board meeting
>>559796743Minthara's pregnancy. Mostly because it'd make the tranny here obsessed with her being a lesbian seethe.
>>559796892It's especially strange since Hold Person is in the game, which Magical Circle is a companion spell toMending and Magic Jar would have been fun spells also
>>559793949Good idea. You're going to miss out on a hefty chunk of content but that comes with the territory. If I were you I'd use all kinds of items of magical origin (remember, all the +1/+2/+3 items are enchanted) but I'd probably stick to generic chest pieces. They have the biggest impact on your character's looks and it'd be a thematically fitting decision. Besides using a Plate Armor +2 instead of the Blackguard's Plate won't set you back that much anyway. This character has Champion written all over it, which might be the worst Fighter class but it's a Fighter regardless. Make sure to don't forget about grenades!
>>559797057lesbians getting pregnant all the time is normal in real life though
>>559797024Why is Astarion in a corner?
>>559796743>throwing knivesCan't handle the idea that a woman is better at something than you, can you?
>>559797057It was cut precisely because it didn't fit the character. And regardless would still fit the bill of player interference, no different than respecs or other ways of player manipulation. And further, Drow matrons typically are lesbians and nevertheless get pregnant to further their line, this isn't a sign of sexual inclination but simply an accepted part of Drow culture. If anything it seems this would make you seethe more, unable to understand the most basic things and becoming angry about it.
>>559797146It's an unfortunate necessity in drow society. If women could reproduce by themselves, the first and second sons would get sacrificed to Lolth too.
>>559797024agp
>>559797178its the useless corner

Shadowheart has pubic hair in-game, making it canon.
If you play a good-ish character and fail to convince Astarion to not do the ritual, is interrupting it the right thing to do?
>>559797872Realistically, no good-ish character would let Astarion survive the first act. People who do are acting purely out of character, such that anything else you do with him after that is never going to make any sense.
>>559797872Yea you don't want to sacrifice 7000 people do you
Three lovely ladies and...
>>559797992...a gross alien, yellow as a toad and twice as ugly
>>559797931If he confesses to being a vampire without attempting to bite you a good-ish character might give him a chance.
I'd say an evil character (unless a necromancer or in some other way interested in undead) is more likely than a good one to kill Astarion without asking questions on the bite night.
>>559796743All the cut companions
>>559797992lmao minthara really does look like tom holland
This game is so fucking ugly. like all western games. You realize this when you open this thread after opening any other thread on this board.
>>559798310No you're right. I played a arrogant power hunger Warlock and getting nibbled on by a spawn while sleeping was absolutely grounds for staking him.
tranime losers complaining about "the west" again before going back to watching the ugliest art style on the planet with some faggot jumping and hanging in midair while a single bead of sweat hangs there and he says some pocky gibberish
>>559797992Minthara's chin should count as extra armor
>>559799284From my point of view the weebshit is ugly
>>559797872At that point Astarion has already made his mind up so he'll interpret your move as cheating him out of an incredibly rare opportunity to be finally free and so powerful that he doesn't have to fear anybody anymore. Have you considered the consequences of that? Hijacking the ritual condemns him to remain as a spawn for eternity against his own will. If the persuasion attempted failed I'd let him finish the ritual as he's too far gone to see the light.
>>559799284Yes, that's why it won multiple awards and is the Game of the Year 2023Not only this bait is silly and not really believable, but you had to add the>any other thread on this boardlollmao
>>559799495There are bigger concerns than Astarion's free will. You don't always get what you want.
Bg3 gacha with an anime artstyleThink about it
>>559799206yeppe
Three things are necessary for the salvation of man: to know what he ought to believe; to know what he ought to desire; and to know what he ought to do.
>>559799641Tom got a smaller chin LMAO
>>559799772
>>559799495>f the persuasion attempted failed I'd let him finish the ritual as he's too far gone to see the lightI'm a Paladin so that wasn't going to happen. He was already on thin ice with my Tav for being a spawn so when I failed to convince him (probably because I never used the guy in my party and his approval meter was basically where it was at the start of act 1) and divine smite'd his ass out of existence.
>>559796743Astarion used to have traditional vampire weaknesses, such as running water harming him or being unable to enter a place unless formally invited. You can imagine why they eventually decided to do away with that, just as they did with anything that could vaguely inconvenience the player, such as a fatigue system, or actual consequences for being a tadpole junkie. It's a relatively minor thing in the grand scheme, but I still think it's disappointing to cut. Mechanically, Astarion feels slightly less like a vampire now. Most players are even told to respec him to some meta ranged Bard/Thief build - when he really should be a Rogue/Monk - so he doesn't even get to use his bite in combat.
>>559799615Kinda a thing but the ingame art is way uglier
>>559797992>ThreeFour. We love our princesses here.
>>559800287I wonder if the early tadpole consequences would have been more poignant than getting the surprise when you seize control the brain after nomming on tadpoles and owning noobs the entire game.
Romantically pairing off the companions with other companions:Shadowheart + LohseKarlach + SebilleAstarion + FaneLaezel + BeastI don't think the others would match up.

>>559801597>got shitsin over a brown shortstack dwarfwhy
>>559800287With Astarion it would have required to give him either significant upsides or also give companions serious downsides.Which i don't think was worth the trouble, the Tadpole removing some weaknesses is even established as the Drows officers within the cult are noted to not suffer from Sunlight Sensitivity.It's always difficult to balance these things because it either swings wildly in one direction, with the Undead tag being completely busted and then suddenly going the other way once you face enemies that have stuff to deal with Undead.Compare it to Radiant Retort, sure a shit ton of stuff in Act 2 is weak against Radiant, then it suddenly swings the completely different way on some select mobs and you got Paladins crying in the corner.>or actual consequences for being a tadpole junkie.Fair but i guess they ran out of time on this one.With a jacked up DC on the Astral tadpole and a huge DC on the evil ending, one can surmise that something was planned but they ran out of time to implement something properly.Personally, i would've loved if gobbling tadpoles makes you having to pass a DC in order to make the moralfag choice, but the selfish, pragmatic ones can still be chosen without issue.A reflection of you slowly viewing the world as an Illithid would.
>>559802717She sexo and something i would romance if she was romanceable

We only live to discover beauty. All else is a form of waiting.

>>559805963Between Shadowheart's cheeks, I have already found divinity.
>>559805286I feel like I'm the only one who prefers her Sharran look. The platinum hair dyke looks so trashy.
>>559806196Oh, she certainly looks better with the dark hair. It’s just you’ve got to ruin her as a person to keep it.
>>559806520You can still have her pull a last minute redemption in act 3 and you still get the default selunite ending where she settles down with her parents and you if you're romancing her.
>>559806520This is why mods are fun

>>559809628The last Shaman elf we got in a CRPG was a fucking unhinged psychopath so hopefully we get someone normal this time.
>>559809795we love camcam around here
>>559809851sebille not cam
>>559809918sebille was based too but her and astarion feel way too similar to have yet ANOTHER escaped elf that used to work for an evil shadowy figure
Wyll and Cam
>>559809918No I was referring to Camellia. Sebille is unhinged and edgy but she's not a full on batshit insane serial killer.
>>559801597come to think of it, is there any reason to talk to her at all? Even on a good path, you can just go straight to Halsin and never talk to her at all. She never leaves her little spot either. She does one thing, gives you wyvern poison, and then tells you to go save Halsin. Falling in love with her is like falling in love with your washing machine. Just this squat little object that does one thing and then you don't interact with it anymore.
Githyanki telekinetic practice at display. The frog is so mighty she can levitate rocks just by the power of her mind.

>>559810051If you promise that you'll kill yourself after she gives you the poison Shart and Frog approve. But given how easy their approval is to gain it's not really a big thing.
>>559810179Would.Also, why?
>>559810329chuds hate women so much they became gay
>>559810051Most people send you towards the grove and she basically confirms that Halsin is gone and you need to find him.Do you *need* to visit her? No but i think most people do on a 1st playthrough.
>>559810569Lame.
>you're a gay if you want priestesses to dress modestlyI personally don't care because I'm a coomer but there's nothing wrong with not wanting that.
>>559812124>priestessthat's a noble
>>559812289Also many gods and goddesses in the Forgotten Realms don't mind or even expect skimpy dresses from their priestesses.
>>559812289I don't remember her but the mod description did state that
>>559812554She's a noble and on Gortash's "easily subverted" list.

>>559813396>>559812124Actually I misremembered. It restores the dignity of noblewomen, not priestesses.
>>559810329>Anon would do a lady with the sexiest body type and the most attractive face in the gameThank you for your service! As for the pic above I guess the mod creator felt her clothing was inappropriate for a coronation. It's a formal event after all. A heavily split dress on not one but both sides is hardly that. Is that line on her upper thigh her underwear? I'm not sure but if the dress indeed reveals that then I believe we have the answer.
>>559813747>no fun allowed

With this mod, we aim to make it easier to distinguish — for example, the visual difference between a Wood Elf and a HighElf. Their unique racial features can now shine through, free from the muddled mix of colors that once turned everyone into a Californian rainbow soup.
>>559805286Beautiful quote.>>559809532Beautiful half-elf.
Death to Astarion
Death to wyll and his 4 fans
Which companion needs Tav the most? Which companion needs your love/romance the most?Which companion would be the most harmed if you denied them your heart?
>>559815552There are no horses in Baldur's Gate 3
>>559815585either karlach without wyll or shadowheart if she kills her parents, they're both alone
>>559815708Astarion is alone too
>>559815708Lae'zel is alone too
>>559815912Isn't that the way he likes it? Becoming the vampire ascendant is his default choice, no matter how you befriend him you still need to pass a skill check to convince him otherwise.
>>559815912he’s not alonehe has me
L*e'zel has her whole life ahead of her, she is a fledgling that just left the nest. Astarion was a slave for years and no matter which path you take, he's lost everything he's ever known by the end of his personal storyline.Don't make light of his suffering by comparing him to some upstart g*th who fucks around just because she can. She's just some dumb uneducated co-ed with no life experience.
>>559816263This is gonna trigger the toadcels
>>559815912he got pimped for years he's fine with going solo >>559815970she got her egg
>>559816169And yet he thanks you for stopping him if you succeed that skill check. Of course ascending is his default choice, he's had nothing for so long. He can't think straight. Just like a kid who learns what freedom is for the first time, he'll make mistakes if left to his own devices.>isn't that how he likes itIf you romance him you see that he likes not being alone or powerless even more.
>>559815970>Lae'zel is alone tooNo? She has all her fellow githyanki and joins Orpheus on a crusade to overthrow vlaakith. She's more than fine.>>559815708I agree. Karlach without Wyll otherwise Selunite Shadowheart (Shar Shadowheart is fine on her own)
>>559810051>>559810729Not visiting her is meta-gaming unless you genuinely never found the Grove and went to the Goblin Camp instead. Or maybe if you consciously decided that saving the archdruid takes priority over visiting the Grove's main healer in his absence. During your first run you're almost guaranteed to stumble into the Grove as the map was designed that way and inside you'll be directed to Nettie by the inhabitants. This is your reason to talk to her, not because it's required to be able to proceed. By the way you can visit her again after Halsin has returned. She has a few new lines and gives you a little care package.
Why do you have to be evil if you take control of the Netherbrain?
>not changing the classes of the companions
>>559816169And it's stupid. Imagine letting someone you've known for only a month or two talk you out of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity

>>559815970Lae'zel is so not-alone that she's the one companion that even romanced might still choose to leave with her people.>>559815912>>559815708Now that I think of it, seems funnily appropriate that WotC put exactly those three together adventuring as a party after the events of the game.
>>559817051Good people don't want absolute power to rule over infected innocents.
Why is halsin so nonce coded? Why did Larian feel the need to write him like that?
daily Halsin melty

>>559817401he fucks literal chimeras and doesn't give a shit about gale not wanting to have an orgy with him he fucked his ass nonetheless, I don't see him caring about chimeras
>>559813583>did shart really need a magic wound?The story also could've worked without it but i think it's signaling that there's something very fishy about her story / faith.You can make the argument about Shar being a more than dubious deity but inflicting an uncureable wound that lashes out whenever she does something "unsharran" is a big sign that Shadowheart has to be kept in line by force.Naturally, if you pay attention to every detail it is obvious, but for a new player that doesn't pick up on every detail, the wound is the thing that likely makes most people realize that Shadowheart doesn't have the full picture of her own story.
>>559817396You could free the innocents. Just control the brain, the mindflayers and the ships.
>>559818173yeah it's an easy way to show that shadowheart is prone to doing good deeds
>>559817523daily sharter sharting their pants and getting cucked
>>559818215Good people don't need a militia to fight wars or judge people based on their personal standards. Plus becoming the new elder brain means being willing to fight a never ending war with the githyanki. If either side loses their opposite will begin a war across the stars for universal domination.

The twin elf sisters that you'll be able to romance in Divinity will both be virgins too so you won't have to worry about c*ckoldry, trust the plan.
>>559818675will you get divinity if 33% of the companions are poly like in bg3?
There is a character in DOS2 that actually goes to Faerun accidentally, so we know travel is possible. How could would it be if the next game has a mysterious goth elf girl to romance, and then in act 3 there's a quest where a portal opens up and a mysterious muscle bound druid from another world emerges and immediately seduces your elf girlfriend right in front of you
Mental illness
>>559817083It's about saving Astarion from himself. To becoming the next Cazador. To breaking the cycle of violence (or however Astarion himself puts it) after hundreds of years.>>559817210Though I'm sure it was a pleasant experience and your clothes were always clean it's not nice to refer to Consuela as the washing machine!
>>559818417There's also the issue that the netherbrain could influence the Chosen even when they had all the stones, it likely makes you power hungry and influences you to spread the parasites, and when you let your guard down when partying it'll convince you to turn into a squid and join the Grand Design.
>>559818947nah that's already Lenore's gimmick
>>559815585That phrasing bothers me, because it frames companions as helpless and in need of being rescued. It's probably not what you meant, but I can't help but interpret it that way. Even Karlach, who would rather die than return to Avernus alone, is not someone who is waiting to be "saved." Tav isn't some grand prize that falls into a lucky companion's lap. The best romances are those in which both partners are equals.
Imagine if elder brains had a pussy

>>559815585Gale is very desperate for connection. Its why romancing him is SO easy. I had to deny him on my first playthrough during his starry sky scene and that probably pushed him closer to suicide.

>>559820005Keeeeeeeek, how the fuck did you know lmaooooo It was literally that post I was referring to. He's so fucking obvious, isn't he?
Every time someone mentions Minthara, Shadowheart, Karlach, Lae'zel, or even Astarion, it must be Mintharafag. Every time someone praises the beauty of elves or drow, it must be Mintharafag. Every time a post is more than four sentences long, it must be Mintharafag. Every time a Tav has short hair, it must be Mintharafag, for short hair was invented by Mintharafag. Annah and Imoen and Leliana were designed by Mintharafag. I can't stop thinking about Mintharafag and what they're currently doing. I wake up and go to sleep thinking about Mintharafag. I start BG3 playthroughs dedicated to getting Mintharafag's attention. But I am not obsessed with Mintharafag or anything.
Tell me your Tav's backstory, age, hopes and dreams

Is there anything in the game similar to when the sorcerer loses his magical powers from the susur plants in the underdark with other classes? Unique dialogue that only triggers if you have a certain class or do something out of the ordinary.

Why do clerics of evil gods still heal and use light and "divine" aesthetics?
>>559825825Laziness. It's why most spells are shared between classes instead of having unique warlock spells, wizard spells, etc. There's hardly any.
Why would healing and light necessarily be exclusive to good aligned gods?
>>559825952unless you can paint them in destructive manner those things usually are associated with beneficial aka 'good' things
>>559825534Just don't pick it up?
>>559826091How is healing your evil followers so they can do more evil things in your name not in evil gods' interest?
>>559826417>would a god of death and murder care that you died and got murderedno its antithetical because viewing them as evil already comes with assumptions of a defined good and evil
>>559826713>care that you died and got murderedThat's not relevant at all, they would care that you aren't murdering anymore. It's like when Orin is turned into a Slayer by Bhaal, that's Bhaal caring that she's not going to be able to murder as efficiently in her human form so he empowers her (and heals her) so she can murder more efficiently. Giving boons to your followers so they can murder more efficiently would include healing.
>>559827149>MY DOMAIN IS ONLY MY DOMAIN UNTIL IT DOESNT INCONVENIENCE ME SO I POWER UP MY FOLLOWERS SELFISHLY
>>559826417I think it's just an issue of actions not exactly fitting the alignment.A good aligned cleric does not need to elaborate why healing someone is the "right" choice because it is literally the only fitting choice.An evil aligned cleric suddenly has a multitude of different scenarios, including one where leaving someone in need of aid in the dust as an option, which is a very fitting choice.An evil cleric that heals other people likely needs to explain their actions because you frankly expect them to do the evil thing and abandon / not care about their allies.Let's be real, there's something fitting about some spellcaster just letting its allies die and then raising them as undead servants.
I hate how they don't let you pick most deities. Why can't I be a Umberlee cleric?
>>559827707Dialogue costs money to write and voice, every additional deity requires reactivity. I'm sure there is a mod that lets you add it though or you can just roleplay/pretend.
froge
>>559827835Most of the cleric dialogue is just text differences, they chose shitty gods to use
>>559827707The vast majority of cleric dialogues are tagged as>good cleric>evil clericso there's little variance, although throwing in the deities that have at least some presence should have happened.There's a solid chunk of deities that have no relevance, not even for a side quest.
>>559821012Cool, I'm assuming she's human based on the age
I'm new. Why is the UI so bad? No, seriously, it's irredeemable dogshit. Trying to add potions to companions' tiny ass quickbar takes forever. Giving everyone their armors and weapons is unbearable. I like micomanaging my party. This is not that. This is just pure unadulterated dogshit.

>>559825825Magic is technically alignment-agnostic in 5E. There's no such thing as "good-aligned" radiant damage or "evil-aligned" necrotic damage. Of course, it strains plausibility to have, say, a cleric of Shar prepare radiant spells, but that's technically allowed. Fire can be a force of destruction or the light that keeps the darkness at bay. Necromancy can be used to create foul undead or resurrect a loved one. Healing magic can be used to alleviate suffering or prolong torture. It's all about how you wield magic.

What's Cazador's chamberlain's relation to the other spawn? He doesn't seem to get tortured or bullie by Godey and even was not included in the ritual until Astarion bolted.
>Loviatar looks like this wtf I never submitted to the guy for the buff because I assumed Loviatar was a man so I didn't care, but now that I know she's a sexy goddess...

wyll is the worst written character in history
>>559836163Her deal is never up and her boss never dies. On a long enough timeline everyone will screw up eventually and end up like everyone else we see in the House of Hope. She betrayed and tortured her sister just to inevitably end up as a brutalized prisoner with a plagiarized soul.

>>559800287I was very disappointed when him being hurt by running water was removed.>>559800640The entire game used to be about it; not just in gameplay, but also in leitmotiff. Down By The River is a song about you being seduced by the promises of power from your own tadpole, as your dreamscape with "Daisy" was an idyllic riverbank. Your tadpole powers growing stronger as you used them individually (which also affected character questlines) would've been kino and naturally would have led the player to suspect and understand that continuing to recklessly use tadpole powers may have dire consequences later as opposed to just levelling your tadpole powers with what are, effectively in game function, potions of +1 macguffin power which has 0 consequences for the player or companions at all until near the end of the game. And even then the only choice that really matters for the player at that point is to pass the DC30 check to not take the astral tadpole or to become a mindflayer.>>559803516I think making Astarion feel like an actual vampire is important to making him feel fun to play as or play with. There are already mechanics in the game that help simulate this: for example, the "obscured by shadow" contingent effects; give Astarion benefits for being in low light levels and disadvantages for being in high light levels. What players at the end of the day care more about isn't spreadsheet autism, this isn't an owlscat game, it's about whether or not it feels good and engaging to play as. Champion is a good class, it does everything it's supposed to and it does it well - but you are effectively playing a right click machine, and it is therefore incredibly boring. Most people will call it a shit class and never play it because of that.Battlemaster accomplished the same gameplay goals as Champion but in a far more interesting and engaging way with the different kinds of maneuvers you can do, which is why people who "should" like Champion just play Battlemaster
>>559803516>>559850363Sorry I ran out of space. Anyway like I was going to say, re: tadpolesIt's not that they ran out of time. It was in the game up until the final ~6-8 months of development. It had to take more work to implement the system we got than the one we had before, and while I can only speculate the most likely reason is because they scrapped "Daisy" and implemented the Dream Guardian instead, making the entire one-ring-seduced-by-power ludonarrative fall flat.

I only know one thing, I want to kill Shar. I can smell Shar, so I think she's around. Shar pissed on my doormat, she was trying to make a puddle in the shape of her face with her own piss. Shar hates capitalism and yet she participates in it, ironic. Fucking piece of shit, I hate her. I won't forgive Shar. Shar bought the last Divinity Original Sin Boardgame from my local game store, even though she KNEW I wanted it. I'm going to KILL Shar. Shar can't even bench one Illithid Barrel.I know that Shar is here.Shar is team Edward, but I haven't seen Twilight yet so I don't know if I'll agree with that.This is the end for Shar. Shar won't stand in my path, Shar will taste my revenge. Shar does a lot of volunteer work, and makes a lot of impact in her community.Bitch.I hope Shar doesn't think my armor is weird her opinion means a lot to me. Shar inscribed a bunch of dolphin porn onto my tir'su mindslate and then posted about it from the Astral Plane.

You know, if you're not going to turn him into a chick, Wyll is probably the best Origin to just pick up and play and arguably the only one where being a Warlock makes sense given all the Mizora interactions
Every companion in this game is an insufferable faggot. I hate them all so fucking much. Only Wyll is tolerable, and that's because he's the father of all NPCs. He's a cardboard. Don't get me started on that walking fucking redditor that is Karlach. Holy shit.

Why doesn't Mizora want to have sex with Wyll? Is she racist?

>>559911445Wyll is not that kind of man.
>>559911808That's not relevant, Mizora doesn't even attempt to seduce him
Mizora's contract involving Wyll's dad in any way will forever be the second most retarded piece of writing Larian did in BG3.
>>559911925Well Wyll says that in response to Minthara asking if he's ever had sex with Mizora, so even if she has tried it, Wyll refused.
Mizora needs some brat correction
>>559911445She's a pedo like all demon folks
>>559912143I'm sure Wyll would have said the same thing about taking a deal with a Devil before becoming a warlock
>>559912102Well, Wyll's dad can't be bound by Mizora's contract with Wyll himself, which is why you can break the contract and rescue him. She's trying to scam and then attempts to kill the duke herself, but the contract can't guarantee her success in that either.
>>559841926That is objectively untrue, based solely on post frequency. The parasite and its enablers waste 50+ posts (conservative estimate) every thread with low-effort, off-topic shitposting. Almost none of it is filterable because these shitposters deliberately circumvent filters with vague language like "the next game." Add the routine sex-pest spam, the one troll who only comes here to call the waifus ugly, the /crpgg/ tourist, and you have a recipe for these shitty, dead hours where nothing is discussed. I wonder - is this supposed to be the harmonious thread experience I'm disrupting when I call out this garbage?

>>559913316It's a "reward" but mainly a trap, you basically get addicted to her piss and she'll use it to get favors out of you later.
>>559913346I'd rather have two or three origins that are unique to PC instead of playing as the companions. Dragon Age did it best with playable tutorials. Cyberpunk was undercooked but even that tiny 10 minute section made a massive difference. Develop fewer origins but make em even better.

Funnily enough there's actually a similar thing in the critically acclaimed game by Owlcat™ Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous™ where you can accept a "reward" from a succubus. She imprints herself on you and when you try to do something against her interests she tries to compel you to stop, you either pass a skill check or she stops you.

>>559915557this tbqh
>>559915459Lohse is obviously a little hairier and more unkempt than that, but the general gist is canonical and true.
Why did Larian give the companions generic backgrounds rather than a unique one? Naturally some inspirations don't fit the characters.
>>559914956
I see no reason NOT to play as an origin character in DOS2 because you can't recruit all companions anyways
But if you don't pick origin in D:OS2 then when they have lore conversations they just speak in private like FAGS and keep me out of the FUCKING loop. Locking me out of story in the story game that I paid for. Doesn't that mean I have to play as an origin or use a YouTube video to find out what they were talking about?I honestly prefer the BG3 approach where there are no secret conversations that your party members c*ck you out of seeing.
>>559916476It's only in act 1 they have the secret convos, no? They are in the open later.
Did they ever finish this game?
>>559916961No, Swen hates how jewish wotc is so he cancelled the expansion and enhanced edition

>>559831090>It's all about how you wield magic.So you can justify anything.Nothing is concretely good or evil.Consider 'foul undead' are undead inherently bad? When do they become bad? Can't I just say anything I do is good and justified?

>>559917435Undead themselves probably aren't inherently evil but they tend to move in accordance to a Necromancer's command or they used magic to make themselves undead.But even in real life those who act in opposition to your values are branded "evil" so it's not much different than the stuff we've been discussing really.

>>559918016What's up with all these overlaps? You should also give that Fighter dip for Lae'zel a second thought. Redirect it to Monk and you'll get Evasion, Stillness of Mind, +2 Ki Points and a Feat. Action Surge is not as powerful with that class as with others.>>559917253I was going to use these paired with companion pics as bump material. Bummer!
>>559919606he's being stupid with the multiclassing
>muh BUILDS>in bg3HAHAHAHAHA
Multiclassing is low-class behavior, and it's something that only exists as a way to accommodate Madden/GTA players who stumble into an RPG.
>>559919894t. magic user
On TT avoiding multiclass gets you an epic boon at level cap but when the cap is lowered multiclassing becomes more and more attractive. Swen is to blame for this treachery!
>>559919606>What's up with all these overlaps?What do you mean? Multiple bards/hand crossbowers synergise extremely well, if anything the monk/melee adds less synergy than going with another ranged character.>Redirect it to Monk and you'll get Evasion, Stillness of Mind, Useless>+2 Ki Points I have 4 short rests, I don't need more points.>and a Feat5 extra FULL actions per long rest is better than a feat for +2>Action Surge is not as powerful with that classHow is an additional 2 attacks less useful on monks?
namefag and his schizo personality
>>559921570there's nothing wrong about barrels
>>559917435>So you can justify anything.Not really. A spell like Cure Wounds isn't inherently good or evil. It can be used to heal the injured, or it can be a torturer's tool to prolong a prisoner's suffering. Healing magic isn't restricted to a particular alignment. This is not to say that all spells are like that. No one is trying to put a positive spin on a spell like Circle of Death. The point is that the school of necromancy itself isn't evil, although there is a deserved association. In general, 5E explicitly separates alignment from magic or classes.>are undead inherently bad?The creation of undead is almost always explicitly evil-aligned in the setting. This is self-evident in cases where a corpse is reanimated without the consent of its former owner. Vampirism is treated as a curse you inflict on someone, condemning them to an eternity of thirst. You could argue that Ascendant Astarion turning Tav into a spawn is different because there is consent, but that would be an exception to the rule. There is still concrete good and evil. It just cannot be mapped to broad forms of magic.
>>559921570I thought the right was just a meme, people don't unironically say that do they?
>>559919606>I was going to use these paired with companion pics as bump material. Bummer!How do you feel about the recent thread experience? Would you still say that my autism is unwarranted?
>>559922043we have 2 (1) here that do that
>>559921926Cazador's servants are mortal bloodsluts who want to become spawn and that's in fact how many vampire spawn are made, I'd say Tav who becomes Astarion's spawn is no less evil than them.
>>559922446Surely you jest?
>>559922043I know people who unironically think that beating the game with certain builds means you didn't beat the game.
>>559922621If you use any explosives or use spells like Heroes' Feast or Longstrider YOU ARE CHEATING and DIDN'T BEAT THE GAME!
>>559921249Since I'm never powergaming myself I sometimes forget that perspective exists as well. Unless you're aiming for Honor this sounds overkill for me. Of course you play however you feel like but BG3 is far from being hard enough to require this level of optimization. Just my two cents.>How is an additional 2 attacks less useful on monks?Less useful "as with others". Most Monk goodies are tied to Bonus Actions. All the Flurries, Stunning Strike, the extra Unarmed Strike. You got all these covered with the Rogue dip already. Of course extra Actions are always useful but the class is far not as reliant on them as many others.
>>559922898What if I am a wizard who knows Longstrider?
>>559922937OH monk multiclass commonly takes 9 monk levels for resonating punch so they can use their action for an unarmed attack while holding a statstick.
you're telling me monks on tabletop dont multi for a second bonus action?
>>559922998Cheating
>>559920505Uh huh. And how much of a PC's life is actually spent at level 20?
>>559922043This may sound like a strange concept, but some people do view challenge as an essential part of even a roleplaying game. To intentionally remove challenge - either through cheating or cheese - would be antithetical to the experience. You might as well watch a Let's Play. Do note that this is a concept that applies to human beings. Worthless animals like the swine don't see anything wrong with bypassing challenge and even cheating the dice rolls in a dice-rolling game.>It's a mod, I have two active bonuses that give a total of +45. The question is, are you closer to a human being or a swine?
>>559923329Hard to do that since in current TT thief rogues no longer get the extra bonus action at lv3.
>>5599238152024/2025 sucks balls
>>559922937>Since I'm never powergamingI personally wouldn't call it powergaming but I personally find it fun to multiclass and try to optimise a build. Another thing that I forgot to mention is that Fighter dip gives you shield and longbow proficiency. There are 2 really good act 3 bows (one gives 3 initiative and one lowers your crit range by 1) which can't be equipped otherwise. Naturally the shield is more useful in the early game but still.>require this level of optimizationI agree that it doesn't require it but picking 2 Fighter instead of 2 Monk is hardly "this level of optimization" it's just a simple dip.>Less useful "as with others".Other than Fighter (because of the 3 attacks) I'd say Monk benefits just as much as any other martial and more than spellcasters. Sure Monks are so powerful (especially with Tavern Brawler) that they don't need it but it's still just as good.>>559923174>OH monk multiclass commonly takes 9 monk levels for resonating punchIt's a bit overkill and a win more type of ability. Going Fighter instead gives more independent bonuses that are always good.
>>559922043see 1 of the 2 responded to you
>>559923986I'd say a good way to punchmaxx is to make a drow OH monk at lv9, 3 thief for extra bonus action and wield duelist's prerogative with vest of soul rejuvenation and trigger opportunity attacks so you get to punch them with your extra reactions when they miss.
>>559921570>>559922043Instead of saying "u didn't beat the game", people should just start saying "you're bad" or have a low skill level. If you needed summons or a cheese build to beat Elden Ring, your skill level is low. If you needed Gale to kill himself or barrelmancy to beat Honor mode, your skill level is pretty low. If you can't even beat Honor mode with cheese, you're total shit at the game.

>>559925673Meanwhile, I'm hoarding lethal amounts of Deathfog on the Lady Vengeance. Only used one so far on the trolls in the Thieves Guild. Kind of wish I had been able to kill the children but I told them to back off so they sicced the trolls on me instead and ran off before I could unleash Deathfog.
>>559925935The meme just shows you're insecure and too retarded to play the game without a guide. You're probably a projecting tranny on top of it
>>559926065I only found deathfog useful for the first Alexander/Dallis at the Fort Joy entrance. You can do it solo with a bit of cheese but deathfog does it quicker
>>559923986Hey, if that's what you enjoy doing then more power to you! It's not like I'm uninterested in finding interesting synergies (I even posted some in these threads before), I just generally value role-playing much more in these questions.>There are 2 really good act 3 bows (one gives 3 initiative and one lowers your crit range by 1) which can't be equipped otherwise.How come? I'm actively using one of them without knowing how. Proficiency with weapons only mean that your Proficiency Bonus won't be added during Attack Rolls. It doesn't actively prevent you from equipping them.>>559923174>>559924550Yes, but anon clearly went with 4 levels of Rogue for the extra Feat instead, which caps his potential Monk levels at 8. This VoSR and DP combo is pretty sick btw. I'm not a fan of the set's aesthetic but the concept is interesting.
>>559926130awww mad that 4chan anon doesn't respect you because you beat honor mode and Elden Ring
>>559926323>Proficiency with weapons only mean that your Proficiency Bonus won't be added during Attack Rolls. It doesn't actively prevent you from equipping them.Wait what? I thought it carried the same penalty as using shields/armour you're not proficient with. You can use all weapons as stat sticks if you don't care about attacking with them?
Does PHB 2024 mod make the game different enough to play through again?
>>559926356You're mad that you can't even beat something as easy as honor mode. Why are you in a general for a game you can't even play?

>>559926571No, the situation is what I just said above. The lack of Proficiency is treated differently on the mechanical level for armor/shield (disadvantage on almost everything, can't cast spells etc.), weapon/ability saving throws/skills (no prof bonus added) and instruments. Try it for yourself!>You can use all weapons as stat sticks if you don't care about attacking with them?Yes, except you can even attack with them if the situation demands it. That "missing" +2/+3/+4 is obviously not optimal but not the end of the world either. The reason why certain bows are daggers are some of the most heavily contested items in the game is their potential as a stat stick.>>559927175Fantastic idea and I thank you for it!

>>559933946Gith player characters are not popular because Lae'zel in the party delivers the full gith experience, her interactions take priority even when you have a gith Tav. Minthara and Halsin are unpopular because they are gated behind normie-repelling quests and you get them mid act 2. Might as well say Jaheira is not popular.
>>559934258she's more popular & romanced than astarion yeah :)
>>559934356Then why didn't they have a whole dnd book about Laezel instead of Astarion :)
>>559934495because astarion fans are known to buy anything astarion related including ugly sex dolls and they're very easy to milk
>>559933559>She doesn't save aylin>shadowheart's parentsThese are all acceptable. Aylin was imprisoned within Shar's realm and would require direct intervention which she isn't allowed to do. You could argue that Selune should have assembled a team of adventures/followers/worshippers to both reclaim the lands from Shar and to rescue her daughter. I suppose she did try that before they lost to Shar and the shadow curse took over, but why just abandon her daughter. Does Selune not have a strong following or a military order in the sword coast? Same thing with the parents, why not actually get your followers to wage war against the Sharrans? Why are they allowed to just get away with it?>isobel is still dyingWell she died from some disease, no? Can't just establish that good gods heal all their followers whenever they get sick. I don't remember her dying post resurrection but I suppose it makes sense that Myrkul's magic would fade, interfering here would probably not be allowed.Selune should 100% cure Shadowheart considering it's literally Shar (a goddess/her sister) that personally cursed Shadowheart, if she is allowed to curse then Selune is able to cure. Add to the fact that the only reason this happened to Shadowheart was because her parents were Selunites and this happened during a Selunite religious ritual. Then add all the years of torture/brainwashing to both her and her parents by Shar/Sharrans then she 100% deserves some boon from her goddess. Other than Selune being a cunt, what possible logical reason is there?
I'm playing honour mode solo with no prior planning and this is the first time I have EVER used the flee combat function. I really need to improve my AC some more but certain encounters threatens to end me via action economy and I'm still too low level for mirror image. Wondering if I should switch from Bear Heart Barb to Defence style Eldritch Knight (before I've even gotten access to mirror image) and just long rest whenever I'm out of spell slots and steal from Volo for food to fund my character's perpetual laziness. My main worry is that it leaves me vulnerable to magic if I do this. Thoughts?
No Laezel is more popular because of 10% on the romance POLL, not popularity poll. Romancefags bringing their best.

>>559933414Selûne takes pity on Shadowheart after she is forsaken by Shar. She takes pity on her, even after Shadowheart has been a pet project of Shar for several decades, and has perhaps even hurt Selûnites during that time.

>>559936294think of it as a blessing, if she were more popular she might have been made into a polyslut too.
Why didn't Larian post stats for the most popular companions? We know at least that the most popular romances were:1. Shadowheart2. Karlach3. Lae'zelPresumably most people kept the companion they romanced in their party at all (most) times so that gives us some data.

he must think all male companions in every game with romance are unpopular
If 50% of players romanced Shadowheart then she was the main companion in 50% of all players' parties. Completely mogging all other companions combined.

I personally would have romanced Lae'zel before Karlach.
>>559938213how is this calculated exactly? this is 1 year stats so people have had time to do multiple playthroughs where they likely branched out to see different content.

You know, I've always liked FROMslop from King's Field to Shadow Tower, Tenchu, and yes Dark Slop and Elden RingBut something that always bothered me is how fucking retarded people are about the whole>git gud lolololololololpart of the communities that formed around those games. You know, in most series an expression of skill at the game is a display of how well you understand and engage with the mechanics of the game, but with soulslop it's pretty much the exact opposite.>What? You used Flash Sweat + Wolf Ring to facetank Quelaag? You didn't beat the game>You used any kind of consumable item? You didn't beat the game>You used healing sources outside of Estus? You didn't beat the game>You didn't use a Longsword +10? You didn't beat the game>You used a shield? You didn't beat the game>You used armor? You didn't beat the game>You levelled up? You didn't beat the gameand this mentality over the years has crept into other series too like some kind of mind virusI think it can be fun to challenge yourself. In BG3 it was really fun to do that 1 level in each class in 1 run achievement, but imagine comparing developer intended playstyles and strategies to cheating with a third party injection program
>>559938601That's not relevant to the>Act 3 romancestats
>>559938470>gamer "girl"thats a tranny
>ShadowheartShe is the waifubait and the healer/supportbot. We all knew she would mog everyone else. She might worship a evil goddess but she is not evil.>LaezelShe is evil and a green alien and that is freaky to normies. I have seen regular types come around to her but shes still abrasive, mean and evil. See why shes last on the main 3 female romances. >AstarionHe is evil and flamboyant which scares regular people and straight men. He is notorious for being hard to please if you want to play good. His rogue skills make him desirable see lockpicking.>GaleIs a wizard and wizards are very useful. Paladin and Fighter are popular classes so Gale can cover the magic part. He is not evil that's a plus. As a human white guy I am sure that is plus. >WyllLOL. Definitely the most boring Origin companion. Warlock is fun but not a heavy spellcaster.>Karlach She joins a little later than the others but she is nice and good. She makes a good melee if you don't want Laezel's chudism near you. And remember all the muscle mommy lusting memes she had on release?>HalsinNow he joins in Act 2 when most people drop the game. Him loitering in your campsite until Act 2 didn't help. Despite what cuckschizos think his ""hold"" on Shadowheart is not a factor. I can't see anyone replacing the Act 1 companions with him. His heavy flirtation does ick most people out. >MIntharaLOL. Well you have to kill a bunch of innocents. What did you expect. >B-but female d-drow Didn't work. >JaheiraShe joins late Act 2 when even more people stop playing. The people who played BG1/2 are very small. >MinscAct 3 cmon now.
>>559938801It is because I would say it indicates that most people wouldnt replay BG3 and change the stats too much.
>>559938839That room is too clean to belong to a troonalso too many labubus not enough blue coded plamo
>>559938839Again, she's a Swedish girl. I could post a picture of her tits but the janny wouldn't like it. There are pictures of her to the right of that image though if you don't believe me
>>559933414The wound was likely inflicted on Shar's behest by Viconia and it's completely unknown what cures it except the death of her parents, as it is described as uncureable.Considering that we're talking about two faithful Selunites that kept their faith for 40 years despite horrendous torture, i would guess that Selune can't do anything outside of turning them into Moonmotes that doesn't involve bringing Ao down on her ass.The fact that Selune empowers Shadowheart despite her literally not praying to Selune is a pretty huge deal and for all intents an purposes, Selune would have no responsibility doing that until Shadowheart prays to her.
>>559938985Eh, if anything people that get to act 3 are more likely to replay the game. But very few people replay the game so it wouldn't matter anyways.
Not a single female companion in BG3 could bare you children.
>>559939637You can live forever in the Astral with your frog wife so you don't need heirs.
>>559939082>The wound was likely inflicted on Shar's behest by ViconiaNo I specifically remember Shar inflicting it upon Shadowheart as revenge for not killing her parents. Shar takes the pain away if she does it and if she doesn't then she personally tortures her every now and again. The pain comes directly from Shar and is her curse on Shadowheart for not murdering her parents.>uncureableYeah, if it was a simple curse by a mortal like Viconia then it should be curable. But it comes directly from Shar so incurable.
>>559939728What a gross mode of thought. Yuck. Frogfags should just rope.
>>559939728Lae'zel is a Gith spinster.
>>559939637can't you knock up shart as origin wyll?
Space Sex with Frogs. You could just chill in space, kill some scrubs and fuck non-stop after every victory in zero g. Literally the dream, you never get old.
>>559940020You don't even need to eat in the Astral.
>>559939978Selune doesn't approve of race mixing
>>559939978They adopt LMAO
>>559940145Why did she make Aylin with a m*rtal then?
>>559940302
Adopting a baby with Wyll is one of the rarest endings, I think much less common than becoming a mind flayer and joining the Netherbrain.
>>559939793>No I specifically remember Shar inflicting it upon Shadowheart as revenge for not killing her parents.The wound is there since Act 1 and was inflicted upon her a long time ago, so Shar can keep her in line when she does something "unsharran".It's a topic in Act 1 and then becomes a big element in Act 3 when it's revealed that the wound is tied to her parents and the sole way to cure her is to kill her parents.Whether she sacrifices her parents to Shar or euthanizes them as they wish is irrelevant, her parents being dead cures the wound.
>>559941108Yes but Shar has an on/off switch with the wound. So it's her curse. If Shar is able to turn off the pain and then activate it again whenever she wants then it's her curse.
>>559939637shart talking about you and her having kidskarlach doesn't want kids because she's literally dying she wouldn't mind if she weren'tlaezel is sterile

After you overthrow Vlaakith you can have children with Lae'zel.
>>559940461>requires you to romance Wyll>requires you to keep the pact with Mizora (needs to become a Duke)>requires you to>kill Karlachor>let her become a mind flayeror>let her explode on the docks (as neither you nor Wyll can go to hell with her for that ending)>rarest endingyeah checks outCome to think out of it, when you romance Wyll, is he just offering that he goes to hell with Karlach without consulting you?Is Wyll essentially dumping you for Karlach?Is the black guy dumping you for a red, hot tiefling chick?And you can offer to be the 3rd wheel?
I remember Lae'zel saying something like Vlaakith/people at the top decide who's worthy to have children, then they get to lay a bunch of eggs. Presumably if you overthrow Vlaakith - even if the practice is kept in place - you and Lae'zel would be allowed to have children if you so wished as a reward for your help.
>>559941632> a red, hot tiefling chickpeople are actually sexually attracted to the bull dyke karlach?
Canon ending is that The Emperor waited 5 seconds to see what Orpheus would do after he was freed and when he realised that Orpheus would be willing to work with the Emperor stayed with you and nobody had to be turned into the mindflayer.
>>559942015She is red and she is hot. She's burning up, in fact.
>>559941632Yeah, that's basically what happens.
>>559942015she has the fattest ass of the camp
>>559941496>laezel is sterileIf there's a will, there's a way. Selunite magic will overcome
Jen is cute, soft and cuddly. Feeling her soft elven skin and feeling up her childbearing thicc thighs will make you diamonds. Karlach and Lae'zel can't compete with Shadowheart's perfect body
ok

>today I will post someone's pussy & anus on my favorite larian general
>>559942015She's extremely sexually attractive. I'm an authority on this subject.
Lae'zel is skinny, has lean muscles and leathery skin. There's nothing to grab on to, nothing soft to stroke and her skin will feel uncomfortable pressed against yours. She has none of the desirable human features we look for in a woman because she's literally an alien built for war.
>>559942907not to mention her cloaca
>>559938775>developer intended playstyles and strategiesThat's... not a thing. You, the player, choose what playstyle and strategy best fits your desired experience. The developers can only provide a framework, a set of rules that distinguishes an RPG from an experimental sandbox. It is not "intended" that you place explosive barrels next to neutral NPCs and detonate them from a safe distance to "win" with a single button press. Allowed, sure, but not intended. In any case, the "You didn't beat the game" meme may have started as a typical 4chan way to gatekeep FromSoft players, but that's not the way I or others now use it. I think it's ultimately not about bragging rights - and there would be few in BG3 because it's an easy game - but self-respect. It's about holding yourself accountable. Following some meta guide to the letter and beating the game that way is not cheating, though arguably just as lame. Play the game on your own terms - whether on Explorer or Honor - but don't lie to yourself.
Shadowheart is damaged goods
>>559942794This actually isn't a larian general. It's a baldur's gate general. Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 weren't even made by larian.
>nobody has reported itlow key based

ok, and?
>>559923804is this achievable natty?https://vocaroo.com/13P1txr2YiKa
I like Lae'zel's ears, reminds me of Jak and Daxter. Sex with Keira AND Ashelin, of course.
Laezel is subway, Minthara is Jersey Mike's
Could you translate that to non-amerimutt?
>>559947078Laezel is low quality and typically owned by indians. Minthara is high quality and something of a luxury.
>>559947494I now understand, this sounds like an incorrect analysis. Could you explain how you came to this conclusion?
>>559943339>Swen gave you the ability to pick up, throw, and set down explosive barrels and even over time patched in better ways to facilitate doing this>You didn't beat the game if you drop a handful of barrels from your pouch of holding, run away, and blow up an enemy with a firebolt. There is no such thing as a developer intended way for you to play the game unless they railroad you into doing what they want. Swen did not intend for you to actually play the game, you cheater.
my face when retardGAWD asserts that swen allowing you to employ well known strategies and features in gameplay means you're not intended to be able to do it
I personally don't care if abusing barrels is technically intentional/allowed, I consider it cheating/abuse of game mechanics and therefore not allowed in my playthroughs. Don't care if other people want to do it though.
>>559947592I played the game and saw that laezel is ugly, boring, and flat both in terms of personality and in possibility. I then saw that Minthara is an interesting character, beautiful, and can advance in many different directions. You may think this is incorrect because you're not as intelligent as I am, in the same way that a toddler thinks Mom's assessment of risk is wrong when he wants to stick the fork in an outlet. But I'm not wrong, honey.
that faggot is literally playing the fun police as if swen didn't use barrels on stream
>>559948462Extremely gay post

Larian really fucked over Minthara by having recruitment process be retarded
>>559948673Meant for >>559945169 and anyone romancing laezel aka gay'ashell, a nasty grinch looking langly goblin
>>559949118Kill yourself, don't you fucking dare use my posts to hate on the frog, you tranny fag
This scares """"""""elite gamers"""""""
>e accelerated everything, which means that we started working on creating a real universe, because in the past, the Divinity universe was a little bit all over the place, so now we've really streamlined it, solidified it, I think. You'll see that when you play the game.I'm glad that larian learned all the right lessons from bg3 especially when it comes to the gear system, now if only they could work on a good inventory system
>>559949375I do not like this
>>559949297Ironic considering laezel actually looks like a tranny. People started pretending to like her as a contrarian meme, and then eventually retards got caught up in it and took it seriously. Not sure which one you are, but it doesn't really matter.
Rivellon is a way more boring world/setting, how will Larian make up for this flaw?
>>559949781orgy
>>559947771>drop a handful of barrels from your pouch of holdingThis makes absolutely no sense from an immersion perspective. It's akin to entering a cheat code, only with extra steps. It's akin to modding Magic Missile to deal 1000 force damage per missile. Unintelligent and dishonest players are willing to go to such lengths to justify their cheating. Congratulations - you are as pathetic and worthless as the swine.>>559949781No one cares. Stop posting off-topic garbage.
>>559949781the only way larian knows how, by retconning stuff that they don't like and keeping stuff that they do, drows & dragonborns are such a success in bg3 I don't see them rewriting the lore of the lizards/ edgy cannibal elves
>>559949375plopping a big ass bomb barrel down should aggro enemies. this is dumb as hell
>drop a handful of barrels from your pouch of holding>This makes absolutely no sense from an immersion perspectiveI agree with the tranny namefag
Larian has confirmed swimming in Divinity so that's something
>>559949781Customizable vaginas hopefully
>>559947771>>559947984If you don't play the game the way I want you to, you didn't beat the game. Sorry I typed all that stuff before I just didn't want to say something this embarassing straight up.
>>559950226Yeah, its straight up bad game design. Larian could have patched it out but that would have made thousands of brainlets mad
>>559950387>people are crying about immersion in bg3 because of muh barrels>taking a dip instakills you>there are no day/night cycleI really hope that they add the latter in divinity, like, fucking astarion is a vampire and he doesn't have a quest set at night outside of camp hello?
>>559949946>Once again he compares a gameplay abstraction in a video game that is an intended mechanic of the game to cheating with third party programsBy the way, you could do that in a real DnD game too, not that you'd know because you don't play it. Which is why Swen coded it into his game also.
>>559950641 >its straight up bad game design.how? it's optional
the swineschizo and mantharafag are different people guys
>>559950838No.
>>559950814because xir thinks that playing the game in ways you were intended to is cheating, you should've just beaten it on honor tactician level 1 without long resting duh
>>559950838I don't care they both need a job
>>559950814If you cast darkness, enemies will attack you. They didn't code enemies to notice dangerous objects even though they should have
>you can dump a bunch of explosive barrels next to someone while they just stand thereNo way, fag
>>559950952Congratulations on earning the world's biggest strawman award, retard
>>559950683I wouldn't call pressing a button to win "gameplay." Even toddlers can recognize that such "gameplay" is mentally unstimulating. Are you a human being or a pig?
>>559950952Death to the tranny namefag ofc, but this post is just embarrassingly low iq
this is the one time pigschizo is 100% right. hell really is freezing over
>>559950215swen willed it
>>559951491All hail swen
Swen loves barrels so do we
>>559951593>>559951593>>559951593
>>559951435He has never played the game, he just copies his "opinions" from nametranny
>>559943339Dev intended playstyles do exist. So long as you use what's in the game designed to be used in that way then you are playing the dev intended way. If you are using exploits or bugs, that's definitely not dev intended.
