If you told me this was from some Larian game, I’d never assume you are lying.
I feel like people who only know about Larian from cringe screenshots will get shell-shocked when they see the kind of morbid sadism they are capable of writing. Like in DOS2, the whore punished by binding her soul into an iron maiden torture device, begging men who pass near to enter her, spill their life liquid into her. Like the ghost who was stuck in the world of the living, because he was a pedo and is scared of what will happen if he continues to the other world. Like those "womb of demons" comments randomly from a joke character.
The most impactful moment for me was when you walk into demon’s den as Lohse and it shows you one candle per room with stolen soul, that you snuff out to make the demon weaker, only for you to walk into the last room that has hundreds of them.

You're telling me that *isn't* cringe writing??

A post made by some who prides himself on not liking things, and works very hard to not like things.
Get this broken buck outta here.

Following the latest update, they have just changed the EULA — two years after the release.
And then they backtracked, removed the spyware and changed the EULA back to the original one because of the players' outrage.
A win for the gaming community. Meanwhile at Larian:

I think Anomen is better than Jaheria for tanking because he can use flails.

Just Defender of Easthaven and armour of faith and he has loads of physical immunity.

Some quests in BG2 did make good use of there being a day/night cycle. It's a responsibility of the quest designer to utilize it.

The picture doesn't do it justice. The build with how you see a candle, and in the next room I think it was 4 candles. and you are thinking hmmm I'm killing multiple people here to save one, and then THAT room. And of course Lohse has the Rain spell.
Great moment, and if this was done in an old game that people like to praise, it would be seen as gaming gold, like Kreia's monologues or something. But because people like to hate Larian, its ignored.

I never used the pregenerated characters for DoS2 and I've beaten it a few times. Why the fuck would I want to be a girl and not only that a dumb bard slag to boot?

Might as well just cut off my balls and face.

You see that even when playing your own custom character, I know because I played one and I got to see the above picture as well.

No, for that you need to wait 3+ years for the Definitive Edition, 50+ patches and Mods.
Then wait another 3 years for the 75% off version but they only go as low as 50% so you wait a couple more and then just lose interest in even getting the game.

Looks like the cringe dialogues in BG3 are actually just a part of being faithful to the original Baldur’s Gate after all.
Yeah. Lots of people bitched about Larian being too comedic for the "serious" BG game line. But BG has always been stuffed full of silly references and jokes.

Posts like these occupy the empty space between satire and insecurity, and I am not sure how to read them.
Usually if you say the words out loud it helps you could also point to the words as you say them. Easier for you now?
Yes, it helped, thanks. I can now properly read that you are a faggot, and scared to come to terms with it.

I've never done anything gay not even once. Well besides play BG3... and play as an Elf. Okay I've only done two gay things. But it doesn't count because it was on a videogame.
