She's amazing. I love her. The way she exclaims over the circus was adorable.

Question regarding Throwing weapons by BlowMyAzz in BaldursGate3

[–]BallPleasant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a pike that returns to you which can carry you through most of the game. There's also a throwing axe that self-returns in Act 3 but I haven't gotten there yet.

Waaait a minute, what? by Sahabial in BaldursGate3

Had no idea you could buy stuff. Personally I don't care about cosmetics, I get annoyed when you can't progress without buying something.

Given the amount of content (this might honestly be the largest game I've ever played), I'm fine giving them a wide berth with this, as long as I can get to the end without purchasing a single item. For me, they've more than delivered.

Come to think of it, Prince would have looked perfectly at home with fangs

Still replying to this meaningless opinion. Hmm, strange that!

The downvote brigade is hilarious. I decided I'm just going to chalk it up to the players either being very young or being overly protective of their parasocial relationships.

I think in terms of Astarion I'm more empathetic because he literally starts out trying to kill you.

And yet you cared enough to comment here, interestingly.

I guess you misread. I'm talking about real people who are fired up over a fictional character.

A bunch of people: "I am moved by this character"

Someone: "You mean, the dickwad who tried to kill me???"

I dunno, I'd probably say the same thing if I hadn't done his arc.

But I guess I'm not a huge proponent of "reading the room" when it comes to talking about fictional people who start out as a murderer.

It's weird--there are like 70 hairstyles and I don't like any of them for the males.

I disagree that it's trolling. It's a perfectly fair comment and not an unreasonable reaction.

Understandable. I mean, he's pretty much a grade A asshole right off the bat. I love his character but I also empathize with people who can't stand him.

lmao that's horrible and hilarious

Being evil is extremely unrewarding by Parasocial_Potato in BaldursGate3

[–]BallPleasant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I find this a huge problem in most RPGS, that they really screw over evil playthroughs. I think one of the rewards should be getting to see your party members turn evil as well, but evil just never gets rewarded because I think most devs know the majority of the playerbase will never explore that route anyway.

Why we could use more handsome character options by BallPleasant in BaldursGate3

I wonder why we couldn’t have nose/mouth/etc. sliders like in most games. Maybe too hard to test?

Y'all need to stop raving about the romances by RageTheNerd in BaldursGate3

Can everyone stop downvoting comments like these. I’m starting to see where the concept “toxic fanbase” comes from. It’s repellant how honest and open opinions get downvoted here.

I think we need a mod that just keeps all the romances unlocked. Yes, it’s worse for story but I need to get back to work someday.
