I am not surprised to be honest

About what you dumbfuck

I know English is hard for you. I said what you're lying about already.

Spoiler

I don't think any of the hotfixes has any notes about fixing this issue

Well, then maybe you're just lying then. That or maybe you were so horny for bear sex that you just skimmed the dialog and didn't pay attention.

Because it worked fine for me, and I don't think that Larian had the time to revoice lines with him specifically denying that he was a vampire, and as you say, it's not in any patch notes.

So, either Larian snuck in the fix or there was never a problem to begin with.

Btw. funny how Larianfags went from "wow its a super great such bug free game

I've never said the game was bug-free. Another lie.

Not sure how I'm a "Larianfag" when I've criticized them repeatedly either. Lie number three.

WELL HAVING BUGS IS YOUR FAULT FOR PLAYING THE GAME AFTER THE RELEASE

Not saying that. Just noting that you couldn't wait for bear sex. Lie less.

I swear, at this point you're just pretending to be retarded on purpose, because you know how annoying this is. Congratulations, you're the only person on this forum to actually piss me off, you can legit rate me butthurt now.

Karlach: 30 hours into the game
Shadowheart: 50 hours into the game

Take these times with a grain of salt. I'm 60 hours in and just gave an orchid to Shadowheart. Things are very restrained.

I had Gale attempting to hit on me till finally Shadowheart wanted me as her companion lol.

Sawyer is the type of guy to make a system that gives your party enough skillpoints to pass every skillcheck they want every single time with no savescumming necessary, so the gaymer never feels bad about his choices

I got through the "Last Light Fight". As Jaheira was lamenting dead harpers and friends, I actually felt the greatest sorrow for the poor blacksmith Dammon, who could craft stuff for me

No fun allowed.

That actually is a significant loss, as he sells some useful things in Act 3.

For once I actually agree with him
Make every game ironman mode by default, cowards

 

[Eisenheinrich]

James ... please stop it. You are wearing me down.

This is very untrue in Pentiment, fwiw

Hush! he is fighting for Western civilization by clicking buttons with pictures like

and

on the codex. Do not interfere with his holy mission.

Not being able to savescum adds so much weight to every roll and decision that it surprises me that devs still allow it in a post-Dark Souls world

 

[Eisenheinrich]

I don't understand how anyone can say this game lacks atmosphere.

you seem upset


Its curious how people spend so much of their own time bitching about one particular game and reading and writing about it multiple hours each day
guess valuation of their own time is quite low then

anyway I finished this game couple days ago, a lot better than I expected it to be act 3 has quite many problems but act 1-2 were solid.
act 2-3 were very easy only 1 fight took more than 2 tries, act 1 had to reset fights around 10 times total.
solid 9/10 would be better if all romance was removed

finally killed that damn spider

 

[mastroego]

About companions, I avoided Wyll and Gale entirely so that they won't even appear in the campsite.
I suppose it's a decent solution, but it also means the game loses a lot in replayability (if there ever was some to begin with, can't say yet).
There aren't even as many other NPCs as in BG2, so, it's bad.

About ability checks, I'm the kind of gamer who likes to test where the different paths lead, so I'll try a few options and reload, but then I commit to a choice and generally go with the result.
There are exceptions, of course, but I'm definitely not winning all the checks.

Respect to Larian for having the abduction combat non-scripted. It can go either way. I'll explore the other outcome too.

So far I have to say I thoroughly dislike the direction the adventure has taken in the shadowcursed lands. The area feels like a generic "spookyland", and from being a PnP adventure come alive, the plot and the action has taken on a "videogame" feel.

The Inn itself with the black harper elves and generally blacks sprinkled here and there, just because, leaves you with the impression that at some point the designers remembered they need to add representation, and tried to make up for not enough blacks in the first map (if you don't count the tieflings).

The dialogue with Jaheira is Dragon Age: Origins through and through. Which is not a good recommendation.

The moment she sent me to that cleric I smelled a scripted cinematic ambush. And the moment I saw the closed doors to her chambers, I was like:

finally killed that damn spider

Congratulations!

btw. even redditors in love with larian

What a shock that you're on reddit.

 

[Shaki]

I just learned that supposedly you can cast featherfall and just jump to the Underdark through the chasm in the spider queen cave. If you kill her by throwing her into the chasm, her body can also be found there and looted.

Ok, if this is true then I'm actually impressed, maybe there is some incline in this game.

The thing is, BG3 DOESNT incentivize save scumming because it gives you special responses even for failing a check.

You are perfectly free to play on. And if you want a middle ground, there's karmic dice.

 

[ItsChon]

btw. even redditors in love with larian, now are starting to admit that the game is so popular mostly due to the weird perfect storm of PR, and not because of its qualities, and admit they didn't know anything about RPGs or BG, before they saw the gay vampire bearsex tiktok scandal, that made them fall in love with the game.

Say what you want about redditors, at least they're honest with themselves, they admit marketing it all, they admit they love trannies and bearsex, rather than being in permanent cope mode like Larianfag Codexers.

Post the link, can't see Reddit embeds.

SHaki is not being overly right in that post. Have you checked the answers to that post?

 

[Russia is over. The end.]

If I leave the Moonrise Tower by the boat vs. by foot, is there any practical difference? I'm already underlevelled, I'm afraid to miss out some content now.
