It's the price of being evil

That's cheap as hell.

I logged back in codex to complain about this game but then retarded chudcels are crying about gays and niggers so I am forced to defend it

Same happened to Non-Edgy Gamer he came here to complain and turned out to be (mostly) a voice of reason. Lesson learned, there are always people more insane than you

BG3 is so powerful it cures edgy codexers from racism and makes them like cocks, waow

it's just about every rpg. be heroic or get subpar...everything else

 

[Herumor]

Not giving you a dialogue option to Dark Urge that irritating Hollyphant detective in Act 3 into pieces is a missed opportunity

Are you actually embracing the Urge? If so, keep playing, there's a nice surprise for you.

Maybe you should go back to where you came from, tranny. You will never be a woman.

After the data-mining info about the cut content came out I realized that Swen is just like the Emperor. Lying to us all the time in the guise of someone who is pretending to save us.

I see that you belong to the group of geniuses who do not know what the process of game development looks like.

I'm up to act 3 now and haven't seen the companions interact with each other a single time. That's extremely lazy

Depends what you mean, because I remember a conversation between Wyll and Shadowheart about the gallow.

The proper development process, is to sit in your office all day in your plate armor cosplay, and jerk off to the "ironic and funny" bear sex scenes you forced your team to add to the game, obviously.

Funny if you visit Larian forum, people shit there on BG III more than codex

Even reddit is turning on the game, yesterday it was thousand of redditors crying about endings, act 3 and cut content, today they cry about evil playthrough being half baked and unfinished:

The more people play, the more they realize the game is excellent at giving you the illusion of choice and freedom, but when starting another playthrough you very quickly realize it was all a lie and there is only one, very linear path through everything, and only thing that that can change is that you can lock yourself out of some content by making some choices, but you'll never get different content in exchange. After doing one good playthrough, you saw everything the game has to offer, there is no point in replaying it. No different than any high budget AAA before it, reactivity/C&C revolution was a total lie.

Only Codex larianiggers are fanatically defending the game and still pretending it's absolutely perfect.

Why is losing content a bad thing? Game seems huge.

C&C done right.

Haven't seen this. Only interaction I've seen was with Wyll and Karlach and that was a scripted event at the camp because she's part of his quest so it doesn't count.

Damn, all Call of duty games needed to become RPGs with revolutionary C&C, was to skip some missions in the middle if you killed an npc, waow such revolution, c&c done right, praise Swen

They talk to each other pretty often, both in dialogue and in exploration quips?

 

[Reinhardt]

hey, guise! i've heard you lose minsc and dynaheir if you don't go to gnoll stronghold! and edwin don't like them too! dafug is this shit?! why i miss content in the game i paid for?

 

[gurugeorge]

I'm really curious about what happens with Act 2 if the Isobel scene goes disastrously wrong. I have a save where it did, so I might pursue that at some point just to see, but it seems like it would be a VERY different Act 2 experience from the Act 2 experience that you get if the Isobel thing goes right - much, much darker in tone.

It appeared for me during my first visit to the lower city, but I'm not surprised that you didn't see it because I also missed some elements, such as cutscenes

I haven't seen this at all. Maybe I just chose companions that don't talk to each other much? I was using Karlach, Shadowheart, and Astarion up until I got Jaheira and dropped Karlach.

Why is losing content a bad thing? Game seems huge.

C&C done right.

Because the eternal trope of "you get nothing for being evil" is extremely tiresome. Especially since the main actual motivator for people being "evil" is hunger for power/greed which gets completely thrown out of the window when heroic decisions and "sacrifices" give you more material rewards than the opposite.

Also it's not good C&C when one type of decisions has no consequence other than loss of content because you have no motivation to pick it then. It's not about an individual choice making you miss out, it's about an endemic disparity of content between different thematic paths.

It annoys me instead of fucking the game for real flaws, we reach for datamining. The fact that some things have been changed for some reason is a natural process.

Look into what the actual datamining is.

Several ending / epilogue scenes completely removed and instead shipping the game with the worst ending sequence in the history of RPGs cannot be considered natural development process when taken in context of a random month early release date.

Since redditors and Larian forum users nearly don't waste the same amount of time sperging about niggas and fags in the game, the most deep delving into the issues of BG3 are to be found there (which also speaks volumes about the decline the codex has gone through since it's beginning, because this would've been the stuff that would surface first here back in the day. Now it's all copy-paste from twitter and reddit).

And one of the main problems seems to be that companion banter in and out dialouge is so much RNG based, that you will never hear all of it in one playthrough ... or ever. With the bugginess of act 3 taken into account, we might see more of that with future patches.
The current consensus is that most players want their companions to chime in whenever given the chance instead of the current iteration where you have to play the game 10 times to hopefully catch all the dialogues. Which is a stupid concept to begin with in a 70+ hour game.

Yes, we're the same now, send me friend request on reddit

That's because back in the day the games weren't completely filled with poz and to suggest otherwise is disingenuous

Yes but also lame excuse for the ad nauseam sperging.
