Isn't this bitch supposed to be dead?

Women sharing their bodies on social-media are such a turn on!

It's a 30+yo woman who uses AI to make herself look younger. And I think this image is all AI.

She shows everything except her true face.

Can we make/hire custom characters during the campaign

Yes

Do you have a good source for this?

Yeah, I guess worst cast you could respec a hireling into whatever you want, but I thought they were just 12 hireling presets to start. Not sure when you get them either.

The first link isn't very encouraging:

CAN HIRELINGS BE RESPECCED IN BALDUR'S GATE 3?
Even though each Hireling comes with a preset name, visual and Race these Hirelings can be respecced at anytime.

CHOOSING A HIRELING IN BALDUR'S GATE 3?
When recruiting Hirelings, you will be able to choose from a roster of 12, one from each of the Classes. Filling your party up with Hirelings allows players to customize their party dynamic so they can be filled with one type of class. So it is possible to have a party entirely made of up Barbarians or a party of Fighters for example. Hirelings can then be respecced at any time to create a customized party.

But is the race/appearance customizable? A party of fighters, sure. You can even respec the premade alphabet people to be fighters. But a party of dwarves? And is a game without an option for a dwarven party worth purchasing?

Just slap a helmet on them, and they can be whoever you want them to be.

AI is going to absolutely obliterate real people when it comes to porn.

OnlyFans thots hardest hit! Now these women will have to be responsible adults and get a real job. The kryptonite of modern day women.

 

[Lodis]

You supposedly can customize their class but not their appearance or race. I'm not too clear on that though since the info on this seems to be vague for no reason. Guess we'll find out soon.

That is great. 3o8 will be forced to work "in person"

 

[Non-Edgy Gamer]

Probably just for dev time reasons. Maybe to do with their engine.

The only mechanism they have for designing a character is for the main character. Adding other characters would require programming a whole other interface. Laaaaaaaazy.

I hope Larian is in top form and put explosive barrels everywhere so I can send Astarion out with a bang.

Wtf, no male dwarfs?
Larian is racist!

Owlcat made a lame ass dwarf, surely Larian can do the same if they're so great??

They were greedy money-loving scots from the 19th century in Dragon Commander

That's it, that's all you get? Dark Urge run is gonna be rather ronery after I devour them all by act 2 at the latest.

Wtf, what's your problem with Kerz the genderless paladin/mercenary with buttery smooth skin who taught an etiquette class to ogres as they'ire retirement plan? That's one of the coolest characters anyone could make.

 

[Zed Duke of Banville]

A paladin doesn't "purge" anything. You read too much Warhammer.

A paladin is the embodiment of justice. Justice doesn't always come in the form of death. A righteous paladin will only slay an opponent who is truly evil and irredeemable; demons, evil creatures, beings that know nothing but evil can never repent and thus must be eliminated.

But killing a fellow sentient creature without due process? This is not the role of the paladin. Murder is an evil act.

The creator of the paladin class disagreed with you quite strongly:

"A player with a Paladin character asks if this character can put someone to death (who) is severely scarred and doesn't want to live. Although the Sage Advice reply was a strong negative, the actual truth of the matter might lie somewhere else. The player does not give the name of the deity served by the Paladin. This is the key to lawful good behavior in AD&D terms. Remember that good can be related to reality ofttimes, but not always. It might also relate to good as perceived in the past, actual or mythical. In the latter case, a Paladin could well force conversion at swordpoint, and, once acceptance of the true way was expressed, dispatch the new convert on the spot. This assures that the prodigal will not return to the former evil ways, sends the now-saved spirit on to a better place, and incidentally rids the world of a potential troublemaker. Such actions are good, in these ways:
1. Evil is abridged (by at least one creature).
2. Good has gained a convert.
3. The convert now has hope for rewards (rather than torment) in the afterlife.
4. The good populace is safer (by a factor of at least 1).
It is therefore possible for a Paladin to, in fact, actually perform a mercy killing such as the inquiring player asked about, provided the tenets of his or her theology permitted it. While unlikely, it is possible."

- Gary Gygax, "From the Sorceror's Scroll", Dragon Magazine #38 (June 1980)

I don't know why certain games don't have features (like full custom party) that were available decades ago. At least pull out the "technology isn't there yet" so we can have a chuckle.

You're not some tiny indie operation, you have a budget that could probably run Haiti for years.

Also, nobody even bothered to give the hirelings cool names. Looks like someone took two seconds to run them through a race-based name generator.

I guess bear sex needed all hands on deck.

Thank you, Gary (and Zed). Your words have spurred me onward toward righteous bloodshed.

What a fucking joke.
