Really dislike this fad of creating celebrities out of voice actors. Very Hollywood -esque so it can't be good.
I mean we already see the effects of this today, a lot of VAs have overinflated egos and think their opinions matter.

I am getting divorced because of Baldurs Gate 3
My wife caught me in the middle of the night pulling rope to a tiefling NPC. We fought for a day, but mostly she was just depressed and couldn't imagine me having an attraction to a red woman with horns.
She was able to put it mostly behind her, but she called up all her friends and relatives and was on the phone seeking advice on what to do about the situation. I tried to explain to her that it was just a kind of fantasy and that I found her more attractive than any video game character, but the next time we made love she noticed that my eyes were closed most of the time, and she accused me of imagining the tiefling. And in truth, I was. I was imagining gripping the tiefling by her horns and pounding away.
Tonight, I was in camp and initiated a love scene with Lae'zel, the Githyanki green woman. The game was pumping through my speakers and my wife could hear the narrator describing the love making. She came storming into the room faster than I could react. I tried to alt tab but i kept hitting the wrong keys on accident and wasnt fast enough.
She saw the green face and the pointy ears and the pointy teeth, and now she thinks I'm possessed by Satan and sexually attracted to mystical creatures and devil women with horns and pointy teeth. She locked herself in our bedroom, and I could hear her crying and moving things all around. Hours later she opened the door and stormed out of the house with two suitcases and told me she's filing for a divorce. She won't answer my calls.
I really wish I never played this game.

If I was your wife, I would've divorced you just for buying the game.

Kony routinely copy pastes cringe he finds on reddit without any citations just in case you were unaware.
It doesn't matter that he's posting obvious copypasta. The sanest thing any woman could do is divorce a man who buys this shitty 3d pornography. You can find pornographic games for free that are superior to this one and with attractive models for women too instead of the goblins girls that pass for "cute" by the standards of people playing this game.

Does anyone know why sometimes when your guy or even your whole party is in turn-based mode, there are people running around and sometimes even attacking you in real-time? Is that a glitch?

It's to simulate going home from the club at 03:00 drunk and dead tired.

So it maintains the BG 2 tradition of reaching the max level midway through the first chapter?

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.
The list declares there are issues in the game, "Because Larian Studios has sacrificed art for political points". The issues being the game is too easy on tactician mode, the UI is clunky, there are bugs, etc. I am pretty sure Larian didn't intentionally leave bugs in the game because George Soros paid them, but who knows.
Then the author complains that there are too many female barbarians, and too much degeneracy in the game. Which basically reveals they are both new to video games, new to D&D, and new to the internet in general. Or, you know, virtue signaling their chastity.

How anyone can read this post and come up with the conclusion that the forum is bad for not taking him seriously is beyond me. This is a very unserious post. I'd be worried if they did take him seriously.

Would you rather the PF:KM never reach the level cap treatment?
Yes. Only powerbuilders complain about not reaching the cap.
KM and WoTR have much better xp.
Though his quest log is much smaller than he thinks because half if not more of these quests are basically connected.

put less stress on level-based power ups and focus on equipment
removes the ding! factor though it's unacceptable

That just means you can focus on the critical path to be done with it.

Trying to replay Original Sins after BG3 and getting really annoyed by floor is lava combat in DOS2, just example how DnD made Larian better. I dread what we will see in DOS3 in the future.
