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

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

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

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

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

well also look out for reich-wing rhetoric ~~and/or hostile tone~~ in their speech. if you find any - nazi.

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

wait you can't be bisexual in bg3?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You absolutely can slut it up.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

your character can be bisexual, all the romance options are into whatever.

Mostly, Lae'zel does not share.

i meant more that all the companions were DTF not that they'd wanna be in a polycule

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

why is this game so fucking horny lmao

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's staying true to actual DnD.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (2 children)

lmao wait are you serious?

(i never got to play dnd in my life)

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

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

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

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

If you were running a campaign with your polycule, sure, go nuts

Arguably the best reason to have a polycule

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

that's the thing though - i don't have anyone to play dnd with 😭😭😭

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

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

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

Why do all these homosexuals keep sucking my cock?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

They are mad about the different colored hair. Thats “gay propaganda” for them.

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

Steal it

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I could, but:

  • achievements
  • not having to worry about backing up + restoring saves
  • increasing my games counter and watching the playtime go up

🥺🥺🥺

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

you forgot one: updates

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

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

are the updates going to add new content into the game? ~~instead of just being bugfixes~~

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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