NJClaw If so, please let us out of your insanity.
We don't want to share anyone's mind with Ontopoly.
No one does.

My mind is amazing.
If you could truly share my mind you would see how foolish you all were. You would immediately love BG2, hate Dos2, think swen is a sell out, admit you're a Larian cuck with no taste and no respect for a series that clearly deserves it. You would all mass rate User0001 for me because I'm not allowed to myself. You would probably enjoy life a lot more because you would be playing all the good games and none of the bad games. We could finally build a new forum that isn't shit because although rpgcodex is trash, it's the best we have. Swen would be fired and all his work would be retroactively undone. All the future games that would have been inspired by bg3 would not exist. A team of true fans of BG would get together, make a proper spiritual successor without running their grimy hands all over it. The game would be great and honor Baldur's Gate series with out stealing it's name. Everyone would play the game because it's the new big thing. Playing the game would leave them wanting more. They would go to my forum which only allows talk about real RPGs and not just any game with half assed rpg mechanics or other games that clearly aren't RPGs. On this forum they would ask me what games are like the new bg spiritual successor. I would guide them to Baldur's Gate. They would rejoice. Every self proclaimed rpg lover will have played bg and would love it. More developers would realize that their passion of only making BG spiritual successors is viable and they would begin immediately. I would Usher us into the new rpg Golden age. It would be real time with pause, and be based off Pathfinder which is a much better system than dnd. Turn based games will be forgotten, although some would remember heroes of might and magic. Homm style would be the only type of turn based game allowed. Tb cultists will remember how foolish they were and beg for forgiveness. They will not receive it. Swen would spend the rest of his life doing something productive; making sure no one else makes the same mistake he once made. Baldur's Gate 3 would not exist, and the world would be better for it.

This kind of things made my day, what'd I do without RPG Codex

Wonder if Fanta would like to live in Ontopoland?
Nah,tho i wouldn't mind ruling it! To be honest here,he is not wrong. It will be a lot better if a bunch of fans made a BG3 and not some retarded swampgerman cuck with a hook nose porn fetish. BG3 should have been rtwp,the same as its predecessors. Don't think that it right to aim for the people that hated the original games and not for the fans that supported the franchise and make it what it is now. There is plenty of good tb games that are coming out soon,only spiteful little cucks will be happy to see another old franchise get raped by genre change like fallout 3.

Ehhhh, looking at the modding community and the "people" that populate the Beamdog forums, I wouldn't trust a fan version of BG3 either.

So the problem is ONLY the fact they're using the Baldur's Gate name?

It's just a marketing move, it may be a bit sad (the usage of one of my most beloved franchise just as a nostalgia-inducing factor doesn't make me jump for joy), but it's just that. Can't everyone just accept this and move on? We are getting the first true high production value D&D rpg in ages, isn't that enough? I hope nobody was actually expecting a direct sequel to BG2 in 2020.

Also, "aim for the people that hated the original"? This is just false. I loved the original, as I know for sure Lacrymas did. And we are both at least excited for BG3, as I'm sure a lot of old fans are even if this is going to be TB.

If you want to simplify it...sure. Tho my bigger problem is that it is larian that are making it,i would have been a lot more hyped if it was the dudes that made ATOM or the dudes that made shadowrun,at least they would have been more true to the lore and the originals.

Yeah i do know that it is marketing move,lol i am not really that butthurt over being made being TB. I am more butthurt about the codex being cucks and accepting same shit being done to another great RPG as the shit that was done to fallout3. I do know that the game will massive shit and personally don't care about that shit,won't kill the enjoyment i derive from the originals. I am not some retarded fanboy that screech how X sjw killed their childhood or some similar shit lol. That said i see no problem with me shitposting and trolling in this thread.

lol my biggest excitement is about trolling in this thread when the shitty game comes out :) I am like 10 times more excited about TrudoGrad,Realms Beyond,Encased,solasta,colony ship and a few more. While really hyped for fucking pathfinder :). It seems that the end of this year will be a massive incline.

Me neither, that's what is getting me through this damned quarantine.
You guys are sitting here trolling while some genre defining shit is going on? If there isn't push back the genre you love will literally die under Swen's vision. The corona virus should encourage you guys to troll less and become more proactive. Just because the real world is burning down doesn't mean we should let world #2 burn too in some weird attempt at coping.

Quarantine that, now that I think about it, here in Italy coincided almost exactly with the gameplay reveal of Baldur's Gate 3.

Maybe Ontopoly is onto something, maybe this is bigger than us...

I feel like that guy that gets off the ship at the end of Lord of the Flies and sees what they children have done to each other.

Maybe that's because Codex has never considered that RPG particularly great.
I do know that the game will massive shit
The game will absolutely very massive shit. Much turd based even. So wow.

and personally don't care about that shit,won't kill the enjoyment i derive from the originals.
That's some serious shit, yo.

I am not some retarded fanboy

Maybe Conte expected early access and just declared the lockdown for play it.

There is no "genre change", let alone a Fallout 3 type situation, it's still an "isometric" party-based RPG.
It's one step better; it's correcting a grievous mistake on the part of Bioware 20 years ago by going with proper TB combat.
It doesn't "rape" BG, if anything it un-rapes PnP DnD. BG was already a FO3 type situation.

I am not a fan PnP adaptations in cRPGs (for good reasons), nor DnD in general, but that's the only direction respectful to the source material (which also happily happens to be direct opposite of Larian's particular fuckups) and the only direction that makes sense for a party-based RPG.

Are we actually going to act like dnd 2e is even good? Does anyone even play Table top rpgs? You're telling me you're willing to sit at a table with 4 other degenerates trying to roll play some crap while you add up a bunch of numbers? Video games are the best thing to happen to dnd and dnd is the best thing to happen to video games. Video game makers can't make a gameplay system for shit, look around at all these rpg systems that aren't based on anything. So many are literally garbage and can hardly be called rpgs. Look at dnd at a table top setting. Bunch of degenerates and you're relying on some loser with no qualifcations to actually know how to organize a game. No reviews, no rpgcodex to tell you if it's any good, just blindly trusting that this guy might actually make something fun. dnd is trash and baldurs gate elevated that to something amazing. Take away the bad which is turn based and other people, and keep the good which is how all the numbers work and add up.
