BG3 has been on my backlog for an incredibly long time and I just can't seem to power through Act 3 and finish it. Disregarding the degenerate moments, it's just so boring and dull to me and I don't fucking care about the plot or the characters at all. Shadowheart's arc was kind of interesting, but her 180° turn into a good aligned character just due to my PC having a good relationship with her(according to the wiki I read) was dumb and made no sense whatsoever, considering my toon is evil/morally gray at best.

It really is a shame, I think that it does a lot of things right in terms of CRPG philosophy with a lot of reactivity and open-endedness of questing in particular. Hate to use buzzwords, but it really does lack soul, even judging it by ignoring the sexual deviancy in place, as hard as it is.

Act 3 is pure garbo. Treating act 2 as a cliff hanger ending is probably for the best.
