You dipshits can keep arguing about which part is needed or more important.

I’ll keep demanding good story, sound, gameplay and visuals, all at the same time!

If Fallout and BG2 did it, so can the others, despite what whiny studios scared of BG3 say.

Chapter one will probably be very polished and bugfree. It has been en EA for 3 years after all.

I would wager the other 3 chapters will be a bugfest. Maybe chapter 2 will be reasonable.

My weak competition destroys itself. When reviews of BG3 come out it will only get worse for Owlcuck studios.

You're next Todd...
Good grief. Is there no low that Owlcuck won't sink to?

Obviously for 90% of us, we understand that game development is not flawless. That bugs will always ship, no matter how hard they try. At a certain point they have to just release and patch as things pop up.

But it's important for us as consumers to taper our expectations. If you think the game is going to be flawless, you are setting yourself up for dissapointment. Which for a vocal minority can cause rage and drama. Bugs won't/shouldn't affect the game experience to greatly. Looking at the EA for example. There are tons of bugs on EA, but the experience is a solid one. I do expect less bugs than in early access, so from there we are winning.

Regardless of what you thought about games like Cyberpunk or Mass Effect Andromeda. A large proportion of the initial launch hate was down to people being unrealistic.

BG3 is shaping up to be game of the decade, and is going to be a FANTASTIC experience. So don't let yourself fall into the trap of dissapointment. If bugs are a deal breaker for yourself, and would lead to a truly poor experience for you. Then you need to be smart and not play it at release. Be sensible with expectations, not blindly hyped.

LOVE YOU LARIAN!!

Should I be happy that I only recognize the bear fag and vampire fag from following this game? No idea who the others are.

Blue tiefling with scimitar and book is the only one who doesn't look like a poofter.
The others are from Critical Role which is also the only reason why women got into D&D and some women become so porn sick from their yaoi shippings of the characters that they became pooners.

Excuse me for wanting a functioning game without animations that make claymation look like Michaelangelo.

This may be a rather naive question to ask, but shouldn't most of the bugs have been worked out by now? Hasn't this been in EA for like three years or something?
You're joking but since they've been making changes to builds until the very release week window so there's no way the game will be bug-free at the release. That's sad but it's an adeqate price to pay for the reactivity.

Re: full companion respec, Anyone who support it is only pretending to like RPGs while like tactical games actually and mostly. SH who's leaping around raging with hers axes out is just too stupid as an example if anyone need any.

No idea of what you're talking about. What's the story here?
Some #metoo scandal or some shit?

Off-topic I know but here it is.

Nothing was proven. Believe all women. Men are bad.
Earlier this year, Critical Role and The Last of Us star Ashley Johnson separated from Foster, her long-time partner and fiance, after a history of verbal abuse, control, and substance dependence. These behaviors intensified after their separation, leading Johnson to file a restraining order against Foster in May.

I should feel bad for her but I don't. All actors, especially voice actors, are sub-human nigger cattle who, in the words of Sam Hyde; "Want you broke and dead, your kids raped and mutilated and they think it's funny." Remember how all those faggots in Critical Role mourned the death of the Jewish pedophile rapist who Kyle Rittenhouse killed and got mad that Kyle got off scott-free? Makes me hope that they all get replaced by AI soon. Couldn't have happen to more horrible and deserving people.

Thanks for reminding me that based Kyle sent two demons back to Hell where they belong, and then was found innocent.
