It is happening again.

Hardly any difference between the characters you can make in Avoid and Baldur's Gate 3. Of course they're going to show off the diversity, because they're token-collecting liberals.

Hard to take you seriously after you go mental because a map has... roads. ROADS, one of the most important advancements in human history.
Yeah, it's difficult to take someone seriously when they criticize things and don't just consume the product. So will you buy Avowed, then?
I have 7,693 posts on this forum, which are probably evenly divided between posts where I criticize games and posts where I call people faggots. There are 267 pages full of valid criticism in this thread. This doesn't change the fact that your fixation with ROADS is on par with sorcererviktor's levels of autism.

That said, I will play Avowed for sure. Despite PoE's many flaws, I've always found its gods and cults kind of interesting. I'll give it a try, but I'm not sure the setting alone will be enough to make me finish it. I won't buy it, though: it will be on the Game Pass at release.

I'm not fixated on "Roads". I'm fixated on developers doing a shit job in world design and seemingly being unable to implement features that were common place 20 years ago. The fact that I need to explain this to anyone shows how far standards have fallen around here.

Do you think Obsidian's poor excuse for a map is excluded from criticism? If so, then please tell me what's so great about it and explain how wrong I am. Fact is you can't. All you can muster are pathetic attacks against my character. 7,693 posts on this forum and you are fucking shit at debating anything.

Debating? What am I supposed to debate? I don't think that map is great, it looks like a shitty mock-up made with Inkarnate.

Nothing is excluded from criticism, but sometimes our minds give birth to criticism that's just dumb and our autism elevates it to otherworldly levels of insanity. I mean, you're still fighting this crusade about BG3 not having a day/night cycle, but the point of such a feature would be to add reactivity and that game already has tons of it. There's a lot to criticize in BG3 (by God, A LOT), but it definitely doesn't need more reactivity. Not every game needs a day/night cycle, it's not even in the top 1k things missing from BG3.

If you can't even deny my criticisms with good reasons then why even reply to my posts? It seems the only purpose of your replies is to antagonize me for daring to criticize a game. Why don't you just stay in your own lane, dickhead?

Your hatred for roads is even more bizarre than your fixation with day/night cycles.
He has a point though. Roads means civilization. Civilization means a lack of barbarians. Lack of barbarians means bad game.
Hmmmmmmmm.
Naw, you are right.

There should be a decent split of urban and rural, more on the rural.
