Am I alone in developing a distaste for Tieflings? It's not so much BG3 itself as it is the player base's psychotic obsession with fucking Tieflings.

I'm not being hyperbolic when I say 75% of all BG3 videos, pictures, and references from fans all showcase some God-Damned Tiefling, usually female.
And there's the problem:
On the subreddit there's a "Show your Tav" thread.
Youtube has been quite pozzed and neutered for a while so it makes sense that you see so many of these degenerates. The game was literally made for them.

5E is targeted at those sorts of people, hence why everything is relativistic. Culture doesn't matter, race doesn't matter, alignment doesn't matter and Im sure by 6e they're gonna get rid of the mental stats because "having low Int is discriminating".

What is it with Larians obsession with useless clutter. Why are there locked chests with a DC 15 lock that contain 30 GP and a rotten tomato?

Pixie.

And I don't want to show what THEY used as model of pixie in BG3. It's not the most ugly pixie I seen, but it could be second most ugly pixie I seen.

Swen likes to boast about how his games are heavily inspired by and take lots of ideas from Ultima 7 - however the only thing he took was, bags within bags within bags and hundreds of useless junk items.

No npc shedules, no simulation level interactivity, no day/night cycle etc - basically none of the cool shit Ultima came up with.

Larian Studios Baldur’s Gate 3 Art Blast​



Hi ArtStation!

We would like to dedicate our Artblast to all the beginner artists out there. Yes, you! You, who are just starting out, aspiring to get noticed on this huge platform filled with infinite amazingness and thousands of hours of sweat and tears from the best talent in the world. Not that long ago we were where you are, and, to tell you the truth, not that much has changed since then.

It is in the artists’ nature to doubt ourselves, to constantly ask if we are good enough, struggle and get upset that our art is still not quite there. Well, we have good advice for you – don’t go it alone. Most of the art that you will see in Baldur’s Gate 3 Art Blast is a collaboration. It’s the teamwork and constant help from others that got us here. There were a lot of successes and failures along the way and the art you are about to see is the result of 6 years of hard work. We listened to feedback, gave artists creative freedom to express themselves, we kept improving and kept iterating. You need to hit the wall just the right amount of times to make a crack, and looking back, we are forever grateful we didn’t give up and pushed through to make the game look as amazing as we could.

Baldur’s Gate 3 will always have a special place in our hearts. Continuing the legacy of previous Baldur’s Gate games we embarked on an incredible adventure of bringing the beloved tabletop Dungeon and Dragons experience as a next generation RPG game. We tried to capture the feeling of playing D&D with your friends and mesmerize you with fantastical creatures, heroic adventurers and breathtaking locations. With our art we bring you the ultimate fantasy of being anyone you want and creating your own story.

Any chance that we will gonna see a psionicist in Baizuo's Gate 3? With all of this tadpole and mindflayer stuff, that would make perfectly sense.

Can't believe how lame and utterly gay the official Larian forums are. Resetera tier.

Guy outlines his issues with CURRENT_YEAR things and gets banned. The forums are not even worth reading while on the shitter.

You're surprised? The official forums are for marketing purposes only. If ideological threads are woven into the product, the only "live" users will be those who approve of the official political line.

A little maybe. I didn't know they embraced the resetera type of moderation.

Bioware forums are pretty much the same. Only shills go there anyway. Also manosphere linguo is cringe no matter how justified the points may be.
