RIP Infinity Engine, you sucked too bad apparently.

That RPS interview is completely silly because I just played Baldur's Gate 1 literally two weeks ago, I finished the game, and felt like it has aged extremely well.

A glance at the GOG page for the game reveals some bad news for you:


Take this with a grain of salt. The devs were unwilling to clarify in interviews posted today.

Thankfully, no.

I prefer it like Pillars of Eternity where you have multiple options for how you want the combat to play out, so everyone gets to play based on their own preferences.

Right, sure. Sometimes it's okay to admit you just like boobs and you don't have to come up with these elaborate backstories to justify your sexy armor

sexy fantasy armor is cool, in 2023 it doesn't really feel like a hill worth dying on anymore.

They’d be nuts not to if Larian wants to do expansions or a sequel, this is 100% going to be the sole success (by orders of magnitude) in WOTC’s effort to expand into video gaming. They’ve whiffed on everything else.

Like it’s this and that loving Neverwinter beat ‘em up they launched on Gamepass that was so lovely people didn’t even want to play it for free.

I thought MTG Arena was super successful? The Neverwinter MMO I think has done really well despite being a blatant pay to win cash grab.

So wait, if you're a druid, and you romance a druid NPC, will they both turn into bears for the cutscene?

I haven't paid much attention about BG3 stuff for a while, but what's this bear thing about

Completely serious response; sex scenes have nudity including showing breasts, and penis, and druid bear sex as an option. The romance options are very M-rated.

oooo looking to get steam deck verified by launch, have controller support and optimal settings :toot:


i tried running the EA on my steam deck but it either crashed or sounded like a vacuum cleaner so i just stopped trying

Looking forward to playing on Steam Deck, and my M2 Macbook Air, but I have an actual gaming PC with an RTX 4070 Ti, so i'm good for enjoying this game in multiple different ways. :D

Jack Trades posted:



Whoa! This is the first time I've heard of an RPG where the developers weren't afraid to deny the player the party member gently caress buffet.

Same! this seems pretty major in my opinion. Typically how its always done is that you give the NPC a certain number of items, and increase a number, and then once its high enough you can gently caress the NPC. Completely ruining a generation of young men with their real life romance. :v:

I've been going straight for hitting the block button users that make threads like this. With the Steam forum it will hide any future threads they make, and you know you won't be missing anything anyways.

The Steam forums have gotten extremely gross. Tons and tons of transphobic / homophobic comments, and Valve moderation pretty much always lets it slide.

I think I am just stupid, but also at the same time I am having a hard time following the main story. It weaves and changes drastically depending on your choices, and who is in your party, and that is extremely impressive, but there are so many different characters, and terminology, and lore, that it is really hard to follow and keep it all straight even early into the game.

Like the main story can have you going down a path, and then you make a choice a little bit later and all of sudden the entire story campaign has changed outright and having you go down a different path with no way to go back the other way. Its really cool, but it can be jarring.

Beards not so much but y'know

That, and fur, and clothing. Its up there with how impressive it looks in Final Fantasy XVI, but this is arguably on an even larger and more impressive scale. The quality is more consistent across the board too and that helps.

Needed to go back to a previous save by about 1 1/2 hours due to soft locking with a broken main quest, I think? With how super complicated the quests are, I am not at all surprised that some things are a bit janky after you get out of the Early Access area.
