Lol gook drow

Since South Korea is ran by a feminist psycho cult this is a rare moment of truth in fiction from Swen and company, all the drow should be Koreans. It's almost as true to life as the hooknosed jewish hag that's reportedly in the game. Don't get fooled though, Larian isn't based and it was probably just an oversight due to a rushed development. This is an ESG game first and foremost.

Soo, been playing this and honestly the only excellent part about it are the skill checks. Raphael saving your ass from game over is a nice way to go about it. And Shadowheart is a pretty cool goody Shar worshiper.

There rest is just serviceable at best, while the encounter design is atrocious.

 

[Swen]

You know what's ironic? Despite Larian being butthurt about people making WHITE MALE HUMAN FIGHTERS, that's probably the most appropriate character for the story. The Chosen are human (I guess Ketheric is a Half-Elf?), ceremorphosis works best on humanoids (so Svirfneblin etc should be outright not be available to be honest), the MC is usually from Baldur's Gate and despite all the ~most diverse city~ shit it's still mainly human.

Fedora Negro finally figured out it was all virtue signalling for extra review points. Good job Sherlock

Another example is Pathfinder. You have a bisexual orc companion in an open relationship with an elf. But Lizzie still depicts the main character as a white male fighter in her book no matter what race you choose.

I knew Pathfinder was fake woke when they made every character in WOTR who engages in BDSM an evil demon

Why does Gortash have a Turkish name?

Dame Aylin
Karabasan poison
several other minor npcs

That's the point: the fact that people have to kowtow to that bullshit and spread its memes further in order to get ahead is part of the systemic nature of the tyranny, what makes it so totalitarian, and just as bad as something like China's social credit system, only more subtle, presenting a "this is ok" facade.

In fact worse, because at least with China's social credit system there are official paths to redemption, ways to work yourself back into the good graces of the system, whereas in our system there aren't - once you're cancelled you're cancelled.

I'll be scared when it finally learns to tell the difference between a cat and a dog.

Patch 2 was a big flop. Still didn't fix Minthara either. Getting further into the game it's clear that it's not a finished product.

From the beginning it was clear that the patch was to introduce mainly performance improvements.

WHITE MALE HUMAN FIGHTERS

what male human fighters? in this game all fighters are ugly wommynz. and all males are dress-wearing anal pirates. at least one part larian did true - magic is ghey.

Be scared that it doesn't even need to reach that level

Guy was murdered in multiple ways, his coronation was in a fucking bridge prison. If you decide to fight him its the only of the three that get no power up so Bane told him to eat a dick and if you decide to ally with him the BBEG just zap him like a fly.

Enver Gortash does receive his superhero transformation into the "avatar of tyranny" during the combat, but not until the third round and it doesn't grant him that much extra HP, so he should die quickly in that form, even if the player hasn't managed to kill him quickly enough for the transformation not to occur.

Damn once I popped his shield he just died given how much damage you can stack at that point. Larian needs to review act 3 encounters for sure

The main character?

Whaaaaaaaat. That was not the way to do this, Gortash is not going to last three rounds in 99% of playthroughs. It should trigger with his death, just like Ketheric. Swen, take notes.

he's bard if swen stats telling truth. probably only thing in the world more ghey than full dress wearer,

My complains about Karlach are that she has a terrible voice actress behind and the writing is quite bad.
Unlike Astarion which I find good to be honest and fitting to his character, here it's unappealing.

 

[volklore]

Karlarch by far the wrost companion. In writing, voice acting, story everything about her reeks.
I thought most shilled reddit companions would be Sheart and Astarion, but for some reason karlach is. I don't even comprehend reddit normies anymore.

Karlach is basically an isekai character transported to the Forgotten Realms, when we really wanted a hell-demon fighter

They said it was supposed to fix Minthara and it was reported by multiple outlets then it didn't. Having a companion this bugged a month after release is pretty bad

She's a perfect embodiment of reddit. A grown woman acting like a child, overly emotional, terrible sense of humor. It's no surprise they love her. Worst companion between her and Wyll is a tough call. They are both bottom tier garbage writing

I just threw a couple of the grenades that spawn during the fight at him, didn't even have to directly attack him. Poor guy.
