"If you don't see why I'm right without reasoning, I definitely don't need reasoning."How about you stop making fucking dumb claims as if they were a matter of fact and try a bit harder on the "rational" part of your justification?How about because it is bad writing? Like, bad on a third-grade level.
If you're asking me why the screen-shotted dialog is bad writing, I'm going to assume English isn't your first language. If English is your first language, and you still don't see a problem with that horribly clunky shit, you have no taste or you can't fucking read.
THAT'S IT!! YOU little SHIT! GET OVER HERE SO I CAN BEAT SOME SENSE INTO YOU! YOU FCKN WANKER!!!In practical terms the difference between a non-voiced
"Yes, I agree"
and a non-voiced
*I told him I agreed*
is entirely flavor. It doesn't change a fucking thing.
This reminds me of one chick I met online. Her instagram photos were boring as f*. But dude, the time we spent together, you wouldn't know what she is capable of just considering those family girl photos.Just seeing a few screenshots made me feel bored. Imagine this going on for like 40-50 hours :/
That doesn't surprise me at all, s1sede.It actually does. I'm not in Berlin or a prostitute, but being a callboy is extremely lucrative.I'm guessing that it pays well to be a male prostitute in Berlin and he enjoys it too))
You obviously haven't played D:OS 2 then.Not sure why the ruleset makes any difference.
It depends on what kind of male sex worker you are, if you are out on the streets like the usual representation of a prostitute, it's pretty much the same. That kind of prostitution is terrible. If you are a straight male porn actor, you are paid peanuts, but if you do gay porn, wohoho, you get paid more than women. I'm not sure about the differences in the higher echelons of sex work (callboys vs female companions), but I'd imagine they are around the same. Men have more power and security, though, it's harder to overwhelm a trained man (which callboys usually are, duh).male sex workers get paid more on average, at least in australia. less icky clients too.
Dude, we know your black piller shtick. "Everything is getting worse because muh Kali Yuga". It's making you miserable and yet you continue with this self-defeating belief.
I liked D:OS a lot, so why should I dislike D:OS in the Forgotten Realms setting?
Imagine thinking we could have incline for a change.
Imagine thinking that taking the risk to create the first ever TURN-BASED and ISOMETRIC RPG on an AAA-budget is somehow "decline".
Muh turn based combat.
If this was Divinity 3 you'd probably wouldn't be giving much of a shit.

The whole idea of 5 branches across the world is to reduce overall game's budget, right? I mean, there're not exactly equal people.It basically looks like DOS with improved graphics...for 350 people they'll need to sell what, 2.5 million copies to break even? Not really seeing it, but perhaps the BG brand name really has that much power.
I've seen a lot responses today (not here) like "Hey, it's looks almost exactly like DOS2... AWESOME!! coz I want moar" etc. Of course they don't give a tiniest shit about franchise, why would they?It's cringe to see the mainstream crowd getting all excited while they have never experienced the classics.
Yeah, imagine using this approach when it comes to sex scenes.I'm not strictly a fan of this approach, but in all honesty I also don't give a shit about it and I think for all intents and purposes it's practically inconsequential.
I'd be curious to read something *rational* about hwy do you people care so fucking much about trivial shit like this.

"If I don't like it, no one should."
I believe we have reached peak autism.

the funny thing is that developers tried to cap player at level true to pnp, around 17, or even less, but the moment players realised they can't reach level 20 the reaction of the community was very swift. hurr theres 20 levels so i want to be 20. i played X and there its 20 ergo it must be 20.Yet it is not near enough to stop combat from being an auto-attack fest past level 8.
Yeah, it's not my first language, indeed, and it looks like it barely qualifies as yours, as well, given the poor reading comprehension.If you're asking me why the screen-shotted dialog is bad writing, I'm going to assume English isn't your first language. If English is your first language, and you still don't see a problem with that horribly clunky shit, you have no taste or you can't fucking read.
Now you're just throwing shit on the wall hoping for something to stick.ETA: Forget about all of the rules it is violating -- show don't tell, heavy use of filtering, etc. If you even know what those things are. You probably don't.
See? You are completely clueless. This is an interactive medium where you are inserting yourself in the narrative as the the conversing character.ETA2:

Lol it is not FLAVOR you idiot. It is definition of filtering, the hallmark of classically bad writing in fiction. You don't know what you're talking about, at all.
This is Stockholm syndrome in action.
"It's not what i expected from a sequel to Baldur's Gate, but hey, compared to the alternatives Original Sin 3 with D&D rules it's the best we could have hoped for".
Maybe it is, but at that point they could have just made any type of D&D game and call it a day.
Either way, ALL i'm saying is that the fact the game is turn based does not in and of itself make this a win. We certainly need to see how it's implemented first.
