Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

Which is why I think, if we take the biological explanation, gays who say they are disgusted by vaginas are conditioned to say that. It would be exactly their reduced capacity for disgust that makes them gay, and they are then socially learned to signal disgust to women.

Yet many gays don't feel disgust against vaginas and are perfectly capable performing the heterosexual act for procreation.

Yet many gays don't feel disgust against vaginas and are perfectly capable performing the heterosexual act for procreation.

That means that they're mentally defective. Scientists did brain scans of heterosexuals and found that when exposed to homosexual imagery they had the same repulsion reflex as they do when seeing pictures of maggots. That reflex was to recoil in horror and attempt to throw up.

 

[Eisenheinrich]

Oh yes.

The enemy variety is insane in BG3

No Xaurips tho. Too bad.

In this scene the light is coming from the west. While you are outside the monastery, the light is coming from the east. 3/10 game.

killed gobbo leaders. i guess it should be done earlier. reached lvl 5 in gobbo priestess fight so other two didn't even resisted.
3 attacks/round with tavern brawler from monkeh is really strong.

You can loot them during the combat they are killed in without it being stealing, for some reason.

When you loot during the commotion, it's called a protest. It's mostly peaceful since the NPC killed them.

Plumbers make good money.

Whoever says "Plumbers make good money" never made good money.

The average Plumber salary in Germany is €22,620 per year. Entry level Plumber positions start at €20,220 per year. Experienced senior Plumber positions can get up to €31,200 per year.

That is not good money.

whoever lists official numbers never dealt with plumbers in their lives.

Beat the game. The ending sucks ass. It's ME 3 level of bad.

Whatever you do beforehand barely matters because every choices you make in the ending is almost the same no matter what you do during your playthrough.

There is no ending slides. On top of that, you can't even fucking talking to your companions before the final batter and after the final battle. The ones aren't in your team simply disappears, and never show up again. And even the ones in your team won't necessarily get a resolution to their arc. Gale's personal quest was straight up left unfinished in my playthrough becase the game never asks me what to do with the crown. Shadoweart just stands there the whole time and says nothing. Only La'zel gets a proper ending.

The emperor is a fucking joke, if you don't agree with him he just go fight for the enemy for no reason.

No way you can't even talk to your compaions before the end.. That's the ONE thing that all RPG out there do.

Hard to ignore the fact that the success of BG3 is good news for Owlcat, if they play it right. Rouge Trader is also turnbased and in a beloved Franchise.

Now they just have to add a lot of gay sex and maybe you can get buttfucked by a Swarmlord or something = infinite money bug!

Olwcat needs first to have a billion dolars to make 3rd person cinematic dialogue scenes so casual can enjoy the game.

You are aware of who is the source of the original photo which was traced to become this portrait, right? If yes, then you understand why some snowflake might have wanted revenge against Viconia in BG3.

who dat

Zdenka Podkapova. Google her. God knows lots of genetic material has been wasted on her photosessions over the years.

So Viconia is a Pepiczka, who'd have thought

 

[Eisenheinrich]

Wow this game has not a day and night circle but yet the sun moves during the day. Baffling.

Careful, you will summon the day-night cycle autist.

In this region everyone is from everywhere. I once had a girlfriend who was quarter-Slovak, quarter-Czech, half-Hungarian.

Even the lighting in this game is non binary you trannies.

Honestly surprised that only 368 players managed to finish it in the first week. I had expected it to be far higher seeing as how it seems (as a disclaimer this is the impression I got in my current playthrough which I have yet to finish) you with relative ease can rush straight to the ending the moment you set foot in the final area.

Community Update #23: Here's To You

Hello, everyone!

During the launch weekend, you played a combined 1225 years of Baldur’s Gate 3 – almost as long as it took to make it. And 368 of you managed to finish it within that 3-day weekend. We salute you.

We’re about to enter the second weekend of launch, and thanks to you, it’s looking like it might be a big one. Last Thursday, we released Baldur’s Gate 3 in its final form (give or take a few hotfixes), and since, you’ve taken it into the top 10 all-time most concurrent players on Steam, and according to this Tweet, accounted for 28% of all player time on Steam last Sunday.

As we continue to look forward, releasing hotfixes and working toward our first serious patch, we also decided to look backwards this week. We’ve cooked up some statistics highlighting data from the
opening weekend
following launch and prepared a handy infographic outlining player choices, actions, deaths, and the like. Some inspiration as we head into our second weekend, if you will.

93% of you decided that your first journey through Baldur’s Gate 3 will be with a custom character, which included the Dark Urge. You spent a combined 88 years in Character Creation to craft your Tavs. Perfection!

For those of you who decided to play as one of our Origin characters, Gale was the number one choice, which is funny because he’s also the seventh highest cause of death out of any other cause of death. Speaking of death, one NPC was shoved into a chasm for every player at our peak concurrent player count – roughly 815,000.

We know you’re dying to know race and class split. The majority of you rolled half-elves, with the least popular (somewhat surprisingly) being the githyanki.
Kaincha!

When it comes to classes, paladin takes the lead by some distance. Righteous! Cleric was the least popular choice, poor Shadowheart. (You can always respec Origin characters if you want!)

Though 93% of you rolled custom Tavs, of the 7% who decided to embark on one of the Origin stories, the majority chose Gale – though Karlach and Astarion are a close tie for second place. Based on how this played out with our previous game, Divinity: Original Sin 2, players will often embark upon their first playthrough with a custom character, and then, once they've gotten to know them a little better, play their second with one of the Origins as their avatar.

Interestingly, 10% of characters made in Character Creation were there for over an hour. You perfectionists.

The full infographic will be posted below and on social media, and once again only contains data from the game's opening weekend. After this weekend, we’ll see if things look any different! For example, although Astarion has already rejected 100,000 of you, we expect that number to climb. He must be exhausted.

We’d like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the profound joy you've given us throughout this launch. The love and support you've shown us has lifted us up and energised us to tackle the bugs that pop up as you do the unexpected. We’ve created a game where you can do almost anything with the tools and systems we give you, and with that come a lot of unexpected surprises, but as you report them, we continue to work away on fixing them with our spirits high.

Your journeys were so full that we recently had to increase the size of savegames to allow for each individual’s personal tapestry. It was a surprise as humbling as it was serious, and serves as the perfect example of the type of unpredictable situation we work quickly to remedy. And yes, all of the hotfixes and changes that come with forthcoming patches will be reflected in the PlayStation 5 version of the game and beyond.

We have a roadmap for hotfixes and patches, thanks to your thorough reporting and the stellar work of the support and development teams behind the scenes. We don’t publish our roadmaps because we need the freedom to push and pull things around when the unforeseen happens without locking ourselves in, but we want to let you know that it’s there and that we’re currently working towards Patch 1, which will feature a gigantic list of tweaks and changes. We’ll publish these once it’s finalised.

Enjoy the adventure!

Yeah it's a big melting pot. Everyone hates the other slavs but still they fuck and mingle, it's much like in a Larian game. The true "forgotten realms".

 

[Aemar]

Players don't care about basing your game on a poor ruleset, such as "D&D 5th edition"

The overwhelming majority of people who bought this game don't know or care about D&D rulesets in the slightest.

Gatekeepers, knowing the process, feel they have to get nasty, tell these people to fuck off, make their hobby ngovernable, to maintain any hope of having their hard-won culture survive.

I'm sure the constant talk about fags, niggers, whores and jews and whatnot ruining the hobby will tremendously help push the narrative that Gatekeepers have the moral high ground. Are you winning son?

Well, have fun in the future fantasy lands of mandated sodomy ™, because that is exactly what will happen. As someone mentioned; sex sells, and apparently catering to the 1% weirdos is the way to go. BioWare comes off as modest compared to Larian at this point.

 

[Eisenheinrich]

Do it!

 

[Eisenheinrich]

As someone mentioned; sex sells,

Yeah, that must have been said by the second most clever person on the codex, right after you.

 

[Eisenheinrich]

catering to the 1% weirdos is the way to go

Catering to the 1% weirdos would be devs catering to the most vile persons on this board. Which would result in the devs getting broke. You truly are the most clever person on the codex.
