Reading ingame text if it's not level up screen is gay. Your turk ancestors spit on you, bulgar!

Baldurs Gate 3 is already superior to this bullshit made by russian Untermenschen.

lmao if you believe that, it's just different flavors of the same shit. Larian hires literal gaming journos to write for them, and if anything their style is even more hipster and over the top than Owlcat. I am not saying that as a compliment to Owlcat. At least WOTR has 1 or 2 rare normal people, in Larian's world EVERY companion has to be witty, bitchy, or hate your guts for no reason because that's so subversive and cool.
I don't know, I played BG3 EA for a bit and it certainly didn't throw muh woman power in my face in the first two minutes of playing unlike Gayfinder. Either way all mainstream games are cucked.

I had hoped their Russian location
I think you're misinterpreting the writers a bit. I would say what happens is more like a small part of Russian female RPG crowd, that writes fanfiction for how their gay character was romanced by other hot gay guy in Dragon Age landed into positions of DMs girlfriend/writers in Owlcats.

Just like tormented soul Tristian was written by a woman for women, so are some characters here, who are considered "kawai" by their writers.

Basically, we are suffering less from sjw, than we are victims of Russian female fanfiction. The particular Russian female LARP crowd who are happy to go outside playing LARPs while cosplaying a cute male elf.
boys (something like russian ViktorMeredoths) are munchkining u insane dungeons and 500 classes and +15 swords; while russian women are being..

complex.
Those femoids tend to live in big cities and deduct that since the west is rich and pozed to be rich you need to be pozzed. It's retarded way of thinking that makes any "left" in Russia look like a joke.
Let's help gays and ignore low gazification and resource economy... sigh.

Why are the bad guys just telling you their plans? I love this Scooby Doo shit writing. This is almost as bad as Diablo 3's writing. The only thing left to do is read Dear Diary messages from the lords of Hell.

I knew the writing in this will be truly special after Spider Girl spilled her guts all over the dungeon floor.

Yes, dear devs, I now know that character is EVIL. Thank you for treating me like I'm six.

The token Beast/Harrim/Durance character is usually sufferable.

And now we have Regill, so we're gaining on the bastards.

Map now tells you what terrain it is.

:kingcomrade:

And Angels now give Angelic Aspect to whole team for 30 min at Tower instead of just Bless which is really good at that level. You can get both columns in there before fight starts if your skillz are really good. With his favorite meal Wolj can be pretty Mobile and Mounts are very Athletic.

Did they remove all collision detection between characters? I could swear you could block both enemy and yourself in doorways. Also seems enemies just warp through me like I'm a damn ghost in the middle of a fight.

It's really weird.
Camellia was ''inside'' Seelah like a ghost yestarday when i played. But then later a bunch of demons were stuck in one place.. I guess they somehow fucked up collision detection at least while playing in TB.

Is Zen Archer / Eldritch Archer a thing? And what about an Alchemist / Eldritch Archer?

1) I don't understand if by choosing the Ranged Spellstrike I forgo the Flurry of Hand's more attacks per round. I could try, but not in a good position to do that. Can someone maket it clearer to me please?
2) Grenadier / Eldritch Archer similar question. I mean throwing a bomb that has high damage in itself with another dice-full of a fireball spell ought to be a nuking experience if it works.

Baldur's gate was more straight than this crap.

In its tone I mean. There were deviations, but not great ones.

Nah. As I wrote earlier, even the wokeness is well-written in BG3. All the characters are. They don't hit you over the head with virtue signaling and perversion when you first meet the characters.

Larian hires literal gaming journos to write for them, and if anything their style is even more hipster and over the top than Owlcat.
Again, disagree. And who they have writing is important, but I think that how they write is more important.

At least WOTR has 1 or 2 rare normal people, in Larian's world EVERY companion has to be witty, bitchy, or hate your guts for no reason because that's so subversive and cool.
I hear you on the hipster bit as far as the wittiness goes, but they're fairly well-written characters apart from that. They aren't bitchy for no reason or just to be edgy, they're that way because they're either evil or neutral aligned assholes and they all have genuine reasons to either dislike or mistrust you.

For example, the fact that you couldn't rescue Shadowheart is what made her distrust you from the start. The devs wanted to soften her character and instead of just changing her dialog, they added a way for you to figure out how to help free her in the tutorial. This is the right approach to writing. Not the bad guys writing helpful laundry lists for the player to find, or characters infodumping their entire backstore because you're at the inn and it's talk time now.
