I'm going to make a Drow lady just to lesbian romance Shadowheart. And you can't stop me.

Hopefully that is a reference to eating her, not eating her out))

It says barbecued Gith, sooo.

Viconia's was the only improvement IMO. Edwin looks goofy, Minsc looks uglier than he did in BG1, Imoen looks too childish, and Jaheira looks like a fish.

Imoen is the same age your character is (20 at the start of BG) so if anything she looks too old in BG1 (it's the weight, that she loses ).

So my options are a girl wearing ten layers of foundation and a bowl haircut, or a person missing half their face. Thanks a bunch Larian

There will be more companions, and if they're going for gender parity when it comes to romances, at least one more woman. It's possible for avoiding-bad-publicity-reasons they decided to hold off on revealing the Babe until after the ones less likely to get journalists mad.

As for how memorable BGs characters were, you have more freedom when you are working with 2D portraits, you can add motifs that represent the character, specific gestures like with Edwin or Xan, color scheme, sound bites also help a lot, etc. It's more difficult when you have to represent them like actual people in 3D.

Bioware made the transition just fine with Dragon Age.

Is it really that attractive from marketing perspective?

Yes, Bioware companions changed party-based RPGs as we knew them.

Should've been BBQ'd, comrade. Otherwise it could've been an adjective akin to 'sweet'.

 

[Lacrymas]

I wasn't saying it's impossible, just harder. I already forgot what the people in BG3 are called outside of Shadowheart, so that's not a good start.

If real women can have penises then why shouldn't they have cloacae?

Unless that's some kind of new redneck or bogan slang I've never heard of, I've never seen BBQ used in that way.

You realise you're overthinking a redneck meme, right?

Fair enough, fellow ESLer. Just playing it safe.

There's only a fine, fine line separating cunnilingus and cannibalism.

 

[Lacrymas]

There's only a fine line separating love and death in general, sooo.

Astarion, Gale, Wyll, Lae'zel.

And to think, people criticized Sawyer.

 

[Lacrymas]

I honestly thought they were Asterian, Galen, blackish dude, Ezel (pronounced like easel).

FABULOUSLY optimistic.

 

[Lacrymas]

They said there is going to be more companions.

 

[Yosharian]

Yeah and one of them is going to be a hot babe you can romance? Not fucking likely in current year.

 

[Lacrymas]

Shadowheart is already in, so.

 

[fantadomat]

Imagine looking at Shadowheart and the Githyanki and seriously saying, "Yeah I want the noseless one."

In this world there are degenerates who actually like big tiddies, so I don't find it hard to believe there is someone who wants to fuck disgusting noseless green aliens

The surprise is how many of those disgusting degenerates are in this thread.

 

[fantadomat]

To be honest the Githyanki looks like she's going to be annoying. I know she'll be that stupid, "badass rogue girl" type who makes sarcastic quips and challenges your authority all the time and usually would be able to get away with it because she'd be a looker except here she's not a looker at all. At least Viconia had the GOODS so she could call me a piece of phallic trash and it'd be like, "endure this and you get to smash her." With the Githyanki? The hook doesn't exist. She'll be a little mouthy bitch that you'll want to put a Bag of Holding over the head of while you're banging.

Now, Shadowheart, that's a woman you can be proud of. I bet she has a perfect hourglass figure under that armor. Or a huge hermaphrodite cock. Shit. She's going to be a hermaphrodite isn't she?

The green thing looks more like the dominant fighter type that constantly question your action and want to kill everything. The type that will just stay in its wooden cage as i move forward.

Think about his feelz mate! What kind of a man gender non-specific thing would play as lesbian frist when he could bang him this gender non-specific thing???
