1. It's light purple / dark pink, queer.

2. A purplish red, one of the subtractive primary colors.


RPS article:
I caught up with Larian's founder and director Swen Vincke (this time sans full suit of armour) and he told me that, despite Update 9 being a big one, there's still a lot to come.

"No, because there's still a lot of stuff that's actually going to be added to that first act," he says, when I ask if Update 9 means players won't have to reinstall before 1.0 release.
One more hint for all of you - as with previous D:OS games, if you've played Act 1, you've played two thirds of the content. The rest will be rushed 3-6 months before release. Swen almost says it outright.

Act 2 was by far the largest part of DOS 2, though?
And apparently the same is going to be with BG3, if you want to believe Swen Vincke's past claims.

It probably does not even matter at this point. The 1.0 will probably bring even more profit and what are 3 or 4 more years to wait for more content at this point ? May be this time Larian will even dare to spawn a few DLCs after the Definitive Edition drops in 2025.

It also doesn't matter that you are paying full price?

Ok, let's keep fingers crossed for getting half of the game once again. The rest will share the fate of Arx.

Oh dont get me wrong, a fair price for a fair content matters to me. I just dont think Larian care or needs to deliver a true masterpiece with the 1.0. Many people already bought a shell of a game in 2020 and were satisfied enough to put out good reviews for it. How many of them will reach the last acts of the game once 1.0 drops ? Even if BG3 last acts are mediocre, the number of potential disatisfied folks reaching those acts is probably going to drop past act 2.

Just to illustrate my point with the Steam achievements for OS2 : 20.2% Reached Arx and 11.6% finished the game in Easy.

That's why I think it does not matter that much generaly speaking.

Not any film you saw at least.

A quick search shows she did solo porn. She was a Czech model and probably a hooker. Plus, a lot of porn stars used to have deals to have sex with high-paying clients on the side.

So the city of Baldur's Gate is going to be window dressing? Lol.

Most of Act 1 was done when they released it to early access. If that was two thirds of the content, why did it take them 3 years to finish the remaining content? Do they just like wasting money?

All they've done in that time to Act 1 is polish it slightly and dumb it down for the whiners who, for example, couldn't stand that Shadowheart didn't immediately suck their dicks.
