They are adding a super complex meta-system on top of existing gameplay, without any connection to said gameplay. It's trendy.

To be fair, after a moment of being stunned, I burst out laughing when I first came across that. When the orc is all pissed off because of blue balls and combat starts.

There are far worse things developers could spend money on. We've seen a lot of it over the years.

"Hey at least they're not using our money to rape children in Indonesia!"

Weird place to go with this. Are you worried there won't be any left for your holiday or something?

"There are far worse things they could be wasting money on" is a retarded non-argument. Their job is to not waste money to begin with.

Ok, but "I didn't think it's funny, therefore no one should think it's funny, ergo it's a waste of money!" is Bioware Social board tier drivel. But I guess you had to earn the fedora somehow.

Maybe the scene is funny. Knowing Larian, it absolutely isn't because none of their other jokes have ever been. Fact is: These people are wasting money on coomer shit but can't even implement the simplest cantrip right. Priorities.

Eh, alright, I get where that's coming from. Personally, I'm thrilled that this thing's looking better than SCL to be honest. Official D&D games in the past... eh, basically everything after BG2 has been such complete shit that this strikes me as a refreshing breeze even if it's not mechanically perfect.*

That being said, I'm actually surprised that a joke that pokes fun at banging landwhales among other things isn't appreciated here of all places.

:lol: where is this meme coming from?
Actually pretty funny reason. That whole stereotype mostly originated in the US.

The origin of „Germans are into scat porn“ was Americans being into scat porn. It dates a few decades back into the 70s and 80s. There were a few production companies for fetish stuff in Germany but back then the distribution of such types of porn were illegal in Germany and there was basically no market to begin with. But that wasn‘t the case in the US. So back then pretty much all German produced scat porn was made to be exported to the US. The US didn‘t import German mainstream porn because that was produced locally. So most German porn people came across back then was hardcore fetish stuff.

But the thing stands Americans think German are into scat porn because they bought all the scat porn for themselves which couldn‘t be sold in Germany. So the better question would be why are Americans so into scat porn.

Larian announced the game one year ago - October 5, 2020, and it's expected to be released in 2022(?)

They are nowhere near finishing the critical path, I think this was confirmed in Swen's last update.

When will they release? When they are done with the scope, or when they run out of money. You guess which will happen first :D

Also, you guess what state the remaining part of the critical path, and optional paths will be in when they boot the game out of development because they ran out of budget.

What's with all that cope about Larian running out of money? They made an extreme amount of money with DOS 1 and 2, money they don't have to share with a publisher. They make more money by porting their games to every platform under the sun and got Stadia money for essentially zero effort. And now they've sold north of two million copies at triple A prices for a game that isn't even out yet.

Edit: And this doesn't even include the government funding they get.

So now it's twice as funny given that rusty_shackleford was the one who made that joke.
