It is fitting considering they could not even be bothered getting the same voice actor or anything even resembling the old likeness. Every single tie-in to the actual BG games are pathetic, shallow, fanfic cameo interpretations of the Trannies of the Coast novels.
Only on reddit would you find people literally worshipping a dev that delivered a game with a blatantly unfinished final act, lied about choices and reactivity and has bugs upon bugs. This feels like a blatant shill campaign.
I believe the "this is not cut content" bit. Games always have some stuff left over that's not implemented or whatever, it's a fact. Calling it "cut content" is what modders do, and those people are supreme autists, so they'll try to "add back" anything that wasn't there even if it makes no sense to have it all put back together, and they won't stop there, they'll also fundamentally change the game because they "feel" it's better that way. See: Bloodlines.

A Neverwinter Night Module, Witcher, made 15 years ago on a hamburger budget not only had day/night cycle that affected gameplay(various monsters only appeared at night) but also had dynamic weather with NPCs reacting to it. They would seek cover if it rained.
Your portraits seem to be regenerated every time you gain a level, after you exit the level up interface, which likely has shared code with the character creation interface... I get my characters' hairs in more and more outrageous lighting. A minor bug.
Compared to Act 1, Act 3 feels like a "first-pass prototype", like they just threw every idea they brainstormed. Or like they just started Early Access. It wasn't difficult to predict that would be so.My constant experience of the game is of a roller-coaster ride, where for chunks of time the game is either dully average, or irritating (bugs, reactivity jankiness, woke box-ticking), but then it's peppered with charming moments of exploration or discovery, or good little scenes or dungeons with cool encounter designs (e.g. Harpy fight, spider cave and bits attached, 3 leader goblin sequence, Underdark generally, but especially Mage Tower, Hag sequence, Moonrise Towers/Illithid Colony, etc.) that make you think, "Hey, this is great, this is what I wanted from the game, this actually does feel like a BG game here."
It is, as the reviewer recently quoted a few time here said, a game that's both great and terrible
Meme character that isn't connected to the plot unlike Jaheira with the Harpers. Could still appear as a NPC in some side quest in act 3 as a callback to prior BG titles, but it's not worth investing dev time and resources into making him a companion. Especially when there are fewer companions for a properly evil party.
So what are you saying is that the majority of people have the mentality of a 8 years old child?Only on reddit would you find people literally worshipping a dev that delivered a game with a blatantly unfinished final act, lied about choices and reactivity and has bugs upon bugs. This feels like a blatant shill campaign.
I've seen this story countless times before. It's almost like an archetypal journey in people's minds that they love to re-enact over and over again. They want a hero, so they create one. They also want villains, so they create those too. Instead of seeing these as just... what they are... companies out to make a buck, they create moral stories about them, and define themselves in allegiance or opposition to them, etc.
Needless to say, it's all so tiresome.
But any company that finds itself in this situation and thinks they are going to be there forever is in for a hell of a letdown, Larian will have its moment when it is the villain to the public too, now it's purely inevitable.
With all these "connections" everyone has to the main plot, it's more of a refreshing change.
Doesn't fit thematically either. He's just a wacky comic relief character. And unlike someone like Edwin or Xzar who could be played straight (arrogant wizard with hubris and psychotic yet intelligent necromancer affiliated with the Zhentarim respectively), there's nothing to him beyond the goofiness.
And people said here that she was mocaped and voiced by a man
Definetly been around.Narrator lady makes me acting unwise
LoL just found out that if you kill the hag the enemies that you could fight will become friendly. In he first chapter i knocked them out but the gamedevs were too dumb to think of such solution,so it only works if you don't engage them and just kill the hag. Found it out in the third chapter,lame.
