With my 8 kids, a wife, a girlfriend, a harem, 4 dogs, a 22 hour/day job, burying dead pets, underground karate tournaments, clown college, installing cybernetic components to increase my efficiency, a book to write, marketing meetings, eliminating my gag reflex, throwing bread at sleeping homeless, “maxing and relaxing”, posting online, another job, standing on the porch with my hands on my hips, becoming a ninja, raising an army, looking at nude butts on Instagram, collecting toenail clippings, organizing toenail clippings by size and thickness, convincing my wife to allow me to display my collection in the foyer, resenting my wife, masturbating, throwing empty whiskey bottles at my kids etc. – I will complain in about 30 - 40 years.

He estimated 100-120 hours to complete? With kids and a full-time job, I should be in a position to complain about the last act in about a year.
Play it coop with the wife, and you might have even more children by the time you finish the game than you had when you started.
They have to fix the co-op dialogue system for that to become an option. Savescumming to get the correct character to do conversations will get old quite fast for most people.

I don't know about that:

"Why do you keep taking Shadowheart?"
"her...utility"

You can have sex with one (at a time, afaik) of your coop party members. I don't know if BG3 has implemented any of the IRL minigames associated with the act...

Yeah, about that:

"If you knew about this feature, then why did you still romance Shadowheart over me? She's clearly lying and just using you."
"I can fix her"

The year DA:I came out was probably the worst year in the last 10 years.
The game literally had no competition and this was a time when the Bioware brand still meant something.
If I remember correctly only Shadow of Mordor, Borderlands, Banner Saga, South Park and DoS1 came out this year.
These are probably the most important games that did not turn out to be a failure.
These were dark times when Skyrim was still considered the model of an AAA RPG.
2014 also featured Might & Magic X, Wasteland 2, Dark Souls 2, Shadowrun: Dragonfall, and most importantly Legend of Grimrock II.

Might and Magic X -> failure
Dark Souls 2 -> considered a failure
Wasteland 2 -> niche
Legend of Grimlock 2 -> niche
Shadowrun: Dragonfall -> niche

I wouldn't say Kate Bush is amazing looking or anything but comparing her to AS is insulting.

Comparing like-for-like, you have to use a picture of KB when she was younger for comparison.

Does anyone know if the game allows for modding in custom textures? Maybe user-made tattoos and the like?

in bg3 since you can cast multiple action spells in 1 turn metamagic adept seems about mandatory feat for all non sorcerer casters for quickened spell
but looks like it costs 3 points in bg3 instead of 2 and feat only gives 2? point so might not work
