The game's greatest defenders seem to be the slowest to play it. Odd, huh?
Almost as odd as the greatest haters ravenously devouring the game. Maybe someone who knows how to enjoy something understands that glutting oneself will lead to nausea regardless of how delicious the meal may be.

Employment tends to get in the way too, but you wouldn't know about that, would you?

Fills me with delight seeing people complain about degeneracy and have no clue on the source material.
As if people here weren't complaining about the degeneracy of the source material since forever. I don't think there is anyone who's like "wow BG3 is so degenerate, I wish it was closer to the Wizards of the Woke vision for nuDnD"

I'm not that far into the game, can anyone tell if there's even anything like normal friendship/camaraderie with your companions?

If they fix this retarded system, can you actually do their quests without implied faggotry?

Cry me a river nobody cares the game sold like cakes and is just a very loud minority to cry out scandal.

So I reached Level 5, I expect the game to turn into a cakewalk now or I will be deeply disappointed. Also that fire in the inn was a cool diversion, never had something like this in an RPG.
Wait this fucking guy just reached lvl 5 and have been commenting on why everyone’s takes on the shit writing or companions are wrong? Lmao. People should be required to state where they are in the game before posting.
People here are (falsely) saying there is unavoidable pozz in the first 15 min.

Do you know that for sure? Because maybe I'd wait for a patch or smth before continuing
There are no "bromances" in this game.

Except for Gale (who is bugged), for the others, just say you're not interested and it's definitely over.

Gale is pretty chill and halfway tolerable for the male companions, even if he reminds me a little too much of Kvothe from The Name of the Wind.

It's too bad he's a rapist.

Yeah sure, it's a "bug." Seems kind of strange Larian hasn't fixed it.

You can do their quests fine you just miss out on camp scenes if you don't do romance.
If for example I wanna help Gale and do his quest, is it written in the way that implies you wanna fuck him, or you can avoid this type of talk altogether and just help him as a friend?

You can say you are not interested. Is not like he jumps on you.

I did Gale's "quest" (it's super short) and he didn't really hit on me of anything of the sort.

Then again, I do spam the skip button so maybe I missed something.

Speaking of which, does Gale have the least content of the companions? I feel like Lae'zel and Shadowheart both have a fuckton.

Gale being a rapist is a meme because there's a bug that triggers the post-sex conversation even if you didn't romance him.

I assume this is a bug because his behavior is inconsistent with every other companion in the game. Even Astarion gives up if you say no.
This is most likely a bug related to an incorrect flag update, because it is not a critical bug and should be patched fairly easily in patch 1 or 2.

You can do companion quest without getting buttf***ed, if that's what you're asking.

From what I've read, the least content goes to Minsc, followed by Minthara (not sure how much of it is due to bugs yet tho) and then Jaheira.
