I've spent a lot of time thinking about it, and I'm still torn between dwarf bard and dwarf paladin. My heart says paladin, but my brain says bard.

What does your dick say?
The heart wants a tender paladin. But the booty dreams of a rough barbarian!
You say Paladin, I think Crusader. Nothing tender there
There is no such class in BG3

I meant I consider Paladins to be basically D&Ds equivalent to Crusaders, fanatics basically

Hal-elf bard is great for fir playthrough thanks to many persuasion options and being "vanilla" race. You can also get a bit of all game systems without being overwhelmed. Besides, first time is more for screwing with the unpredictability of the game than doing things in own way.

Playing as half-elf bard is not gay as long you play as a girl.

I'm probably going to try goolock first because I'm curious to see how they implement a great old one patron, especially since they suggested there would be some sort of patron interactions, although I suspect that fiendlock will end up better fleshed out in that regard

I'm not confident they will add much in the way of patron interactions. They have made it clear you will be able to invoke your patron for help during some checks and such, but I doubt there will be much more than that.

I would bet serious money for instance you won't be able to pick a specific patron or physically interact with it in any way(i.e: the patron won't actually show up in the game or change anything of importance). They have a lot of resources but not that much. It will be just a voice in your head on some specifc interactions you can ask for help and that is it. Won't even have a name or specific identity beyond "archfey" or "fiend". The exception is the Wyll origin off course.

Plus it will be very schizo having another noncorporeal entity interacting with your mind besides the tadpole. Convoluted even.

Playing as a female character is gay and always has been.

Bros playing Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat in the 90s would never pick Kitana or Chun-Li for instance. Unless they were gay.

Because you are "role playing" a female. Why would you want that unless you were gay?

I mentioned this in the other thread, but Dark Urge - Tiefling - Fiendlock is the true path.

Some say that magic is gay, so this is fourth. Check-mate.

I don't "role playing". I'm just picking options I like and checking reactions. I don't immerse in fiction.

Dresses are not necessarily gay.

1. It's not a dress.

2. Mages have robes.

No, I move my pretty figurine from point to point and romance Shadowheart in between.

Yeah that's reasonable, I wouldn't expect it to appear physically or anything but I'd still like to see what they have it intervene for even if it is just some flavour dialogue in your head or a feeling here and there
