Does this game actually have 170 hours of cutscenes or is it a meme

It's probably much less, the numbers just gets blown out of proportions due to small variances in dialogue. You also (hopefully) will see only a fraction of that on any given playthrough.

Is JA3 good? No bugs and stuff I could give it a playthrough.

All our fan favourite mercs back?
It's solid. It has all the important foundations in place and the environmental destruction is very flexible, to the point it's almost weird they didn't advertise it more (it's basically on par with Silent Storm, which was the golden standard in the genre).
Its major flaws currently are a poor balance between different weapons (some types are CLEARLY better than others) and an UI that could use some improvement on few quality of life details.
All things that could easily be addressed with post-release support IF the devs are going to acknowledge them (and they claim they are looking carefully into it).

That's not new information: https://steamcommunity.com/games/1086940/announcements/detail/3657534571513526777

It has 174 hours of cinematics, making it more than twice the length of every season of Game of Thrones combined.
Priorities: misplaced.

The game.
Giving GoT as an example was no accident. This is their audience. People who watched all of GoT and still thought it was great.

The Present
Got halfway through ToB and decided to roll a new character for fun.

I got a 96.... Maybe I should play another playthrough before Bg3 comes out how many more days do I have? I could do BG1 Just get the tomes and XP cap and then export to BG2.
Turning back so late? That's brutal. After a certain year, I treated all runs as No-Reload. had a couple of runs where I had MC die at the end of SoA, or multiple party members get chunked late in ToB. Those were always tough moments. Still, no turning back unless MC death.

Maybe a bit of a stretch but yes most parts of buildings are demolishable; each and every hole is not something characters are going to be able to jump up and can crawl through. Very few building have more than 3 levels, so not really much opportunity for some massive SS collapses. I really should have tried leveling some of those bigger buildings in the cities with mortars/shooting out each and every bit of wall on the first floor. One thing JA3 has over Silent Storm is that you return to locations and all damage is persistent.

I also said it was weird how they weren't advertising the destruction featured in a few scant screenshots before release as a selling feature.

I'll finish the playthrough just had an idea for something and did a few rerolls and got 96. It'd be a crime not to use that character later on.

Not sure what your intentions here are. Why ruin the aftertaste of fine wine with a plate of dung?
Sounds like a before/after IRL tinder experience.

Larian is constantly dishing out conflicting informations.

First they claim respec you companions won't influence their background, storywise they will always be a cleric/warlock now they say respec shadowheart or wyll will influnce their dialgoue options and how stories played out.

And they even change the latest community update, first they said the origin characters will romance each other if you don't romance them, than they changed it into npc origin characters won't romance each other.

Feels like the marketing team has no idea what the game is.

I thought people collectively decided to forget GoT after the last season

You need to read the thread more you fucking zoophiliac degenerate.
I glanced through the latest update, what of it? What I meant it was actually you who is "laying in the muck like a pig, squirming and squeeling in delight." Savoring any degenerate shit you could find, bringing it up again and again and again and all the while accusing others lol. As if this is the first game on the Codex which contain some grating or cringe stuff in it. So go on, continue to dig any of that shit up, it seems that you're really interested in that. Just don't act surprized when not everyone are about to participate.
