Yes, reactivity. Can’t forget how the game refused to react to anything slightly deviating from the “intended” path.
You're welcome to name any RPG with more reactivity. One with a plot though. The plot here is mostly set yeah but besides that there're many, many instances where the game plays out differently depending on who the player is and what he chooses (both origin and not). On par with and beyond Arcanum, which is somewhat of a gold standard in this regard if you ask me.
I will say this game has possibly the worst crime system ever designed
One of the worst, for sure. Then again, when you have this "brilliant" system where you can teleport out of anywhere at any given time...

seriously nothing sucks the tension out of the room like being able to teleport back to your pocket plane camp.

..but I do wonder if they had an actual camping system at some point. I've noticed fire pits across the game world, which made me wonder if you needed to use those to camp

In terms of reactivity Disco Elysium leaves DOS3 far behind. I don’t even know what you’re referring to as reactivity within this bestiality sim. It fails to acknowledge deaths of a party members on every possible level. Don’t even start me about “choices” and “consequences”

What? Gay? Me???

Why, just because I'm out exploring the fantasy world with my troupe of homos and trannies? Heh. You're the gay one. I'll have you know that there's no gay stuff going on out here. No siree. It's all purely platonic. Sure there's a little light flirting now and then but I make sure to always politely refuse their advances. "No thank you gay vampire, gay wizard, gay furry etc... I'm not interested in doing any gay stuff. Not now, not ever." That's what I say to all the gay guys.

Then we talk about our feelings for a very long time and cuddle up by the fire to keep warm. NOT IN A GAY WAY. Do not dare accuse me of doing it in a gay way. We are simply having a long rest. I'll have you know that I almost never feel any boners pressed up against my back in the morning and when I do I simply say "that's plenty, no more for me thank you, gay sir." And we go about our business, mine being straight and everyone else's being gay. I would hate to be gay like the people that don't want to adventure with all these homos that I exclusively associate with.

We're speaking on different languages, that's for certain. First of all in Disco you play as Harry 100% times although the game indeed reacts on your chosen skills and some actions. In general it's pretty linear though I might note. At best you can just skip stuff like cheching the body at all.

What I like about Arcanum and by extension subj is that it really does react on your chosen race, class and even subclass. Some previous choices. There's really a lot of those. Regarding c&c yeah there's a lot of fake ones but that's true for most of RPGs. There're some true ones like as with major quests like the hag, the governor (or whoever was that bitch from the burning building) and so on and so forth. They went strong on origin companions too (which I dislike the most but like I said personally I'm barely TA unlike say the same Disco) in that regard. Especially Shadow slut and closet Gale.

Look, no one is judging you. Play as you like, codex welcomes all. Even folks from Canada.

It's because as soon as the options are available for deviant gay sex, they can't help but choose them, so they have to act offended that they're there in the first place. It's not that they're gay degenerates, it's the dev's fault for including options.

Ten years from now when a 'good game' has a completely optional child molestation sequence:

What's the big deal? You're not forced to engage with that content. It's just the dev including options. Projecting much?

Jack Chick was too generous.

You would be right if only you hadn't just said a massive load of bullshit:

Two people, of any gender or ethnicity, having sex of their own free will is absolutely nothing like a child (though this also applies to adults like you, since you were certainly a victim of it yourself) being molested against their will.

But hey, feel free to make these equivalences—it just shows you have no real arguments and that, like many before and after you, you're just an idiot who can only scream slogans you read online.

So it'll be OK if the kid is yelling "Don't worry %charname, I'm consenting to this and it's awesome!"

Anyway, not my fault if you cannot read.

I said "any gender or ethnicity".

Then, as your friends Silverfish, Drakortha, 0sacred and ds, you cannot read a simple text.

Warriors spend all battles just spamming simple attacks.
It all boils down to the an article by Sawyer. Fighters are either auto attack spammers or weapon mages, D&D has AA spammers. Larian decided to give you shove, throw and use improvised weapon actions which are sometimes useful(if you pick up one enemy and hit another with him one of them will be knocked down for instance), but there is a point in the game where if you don't have some instakill shove angle you're better off just hitting because more damage this way.

Codex lost, BG3 won

codex.png

Is not Codex crying about BG3. Is a loud minority. Most people gave 8/10 to BG3 https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads...me-of-your-live-and-10-the-best.148390/page-8

I gave 6/10 but with mods to take out woke stuff, I would rate much higher.

It's kind of a dick move for Litmanen to come out of the woodwork after the greatest retard poll is closed. Such effort shall not go unnoticed, however.
Thank you, I will train hard in preparation for next year because, to beat people like you and others, it takes a huge daily commitment.

I have no idea why people hate or love BG3 so much. It is just another Larian game, with the good combat, good reactivity, terrible writing, terrible world building, and what apparently passes for "humor" in Europe infused into much of the game. Why would you ever take this game seriously? Larian certainly didn't, and never does. It 100% IS just a theme park with random encounters they threw in they thought would be fun or cool, if you thought it would be something else, then you are not familiar with Larian products. With that in mind, I think the only major criticisms you can make of this game is Larians terrible control scheme, and that the combat is actually a significant downgrade from their previous efforts since they used 5E D&D, the absolute worst edition of D&D ever made, especially when it comes to combat.

Litmanen is just your garden variety europeon shitlib with generic leftard NPC "opinions".
Oh, here you are. Poor little puppy looking for attention. "I'll block Litmanen" and then here you are because I don't care about it.
Go play that garbage called Mass Effect.
People like you, who hang out on this forum, are the bane of society. You act all high and mighty as a purist, yet you don’t even know what an RPG is. I’d even be willing to let you feel the tip of my dick if it would help you understand the difference between superscript and subscript.

I see that you can’t even properly quote a sentence you’re actually quoting.

You’d rather ignore the fact that the problem is YOUR stupidity by cutting out part of a sentence. Or maybe you’re cutting it out precisely because you don’t understand the power of punctuation and coherent discourse.

You’re so ridiculous that you’re starting to make me feel sorry for you. And think about it, I’ve been on this forum for less than a year and have known you for less than a month.

If I were your friend, I’d be devastated right now.

"Village idiot". Nomen omen.
