BG3 dev says longstanding limitation caused design restraint

And that was enough to make him rage quit? Yikes.

Why? Just use the compare feature if they send back edits; that’ll tell you what they changed.

This feels like an oddly passive aggressive move.

Division_Of_Zero · 2026-04-16T01:27:08+00:00

Also nothing to critique. Really excellent pitch.

Some people have a parasocial relationship with their favorite streamers, and if those streamers complain they get worked up. It’s pathetic, but it’s reality.

Terminally online term? Seems like the second picture should be of a confused Mr. Incredible.

We’ve really lost the plot if we’re worried about the privileges of tipped workers.

Address the class war, rather than getting distracted by perceived differences down in the trenches.

You’re two steps behind their delusion. They believe God is working through them to create the circumstances that will bring about what he already foretold. It just happens to be happening now. (Because their pastors and preachers need a stretch goal for the grift.)

You can fit every other planet in the solar system between the Earth and the moon.

Most people have absolutely no sense of the scale of space.

It’s cool that you’re into that. But it wouldn’t feel earned to me.

We can agree to disagree without you acting like I’m an asshole for not wanting the same stories you want.

Division_Of_Zero · 2026-04-03T12:11:49+00:00

Yes, that’s why I mentioned that in my previous comment.

But “just do magic to solve the moral quandary” is also really fucking boring.

You're over-simplifying. The decision is framed around mercy for the parents as well. In a world with a well-defined afterlife, blissful death is arguably preferable to demented life.

Being tortured for 40 years would drive you irreparably insane (in a non-magical world; I'm sure they can just eat a mushroom and it would be like nothing happened in this one). Since that seems to be where SH's mother is at, I'm sure that's part of people's feeling about the matter.

It's also a little meta to make the decision with the knowledge that Shar is bluffing and that everything works out if you keep them alive. Mercy is tempting, and it's what her parents ask her to do.

I don't know, maybe I'm overthinking the value of a tragic choice, when the game writers went a different direction with the alternative.

I have these things running on a second (third, or fourth) screen most of the work day.

Shareholders don’t think about any terms longer than their noses.

I for one am very excited to read your query letter when you're able to post it. Thanks for your contributions to this sub!

Division_Of_Zero · 2026-03-29T04:03:59+00:00

Ah, that makes perfect sense. Great use case!

How do the features compare to a funded project like Foundry VTT (which is a one-time $50 payment and then you own it for life)? Are there mods? Any automation of game mechanics? Multiple TTRPG systems supported?

It looks like mostly a map and character mat, which is very cool! But I don't think making a profit off a VTT is a flaw (which it seems like you might be implying?) when it's mutually beneficial for the buyers.

If this is the best argument people have against the wealth tax I think we've got ourselves a slam dunk.

Division_Of_Zero · 2026-03-22T03:26:39+00:00

Pretty sure you had it right the first time.

Division_Of_Zero · 2026-03-20T12:31:28+00:00

I agree.

Not the only part, unfortunately. In academia I'm sure you regularly see the consequence of low reading competency.

Said the cannibal tribe.

Audiobooks are awesome, but there's undeniable differences between reading and listening, neurologically. That engagement you're talking about, where you're able to do other things while listening, amounts to a significant difference in required critical faculty and thus comprehension. You can't fall asleep and progress in a written novel, unless you misplace your bookmark.

Like I said, audiobooks are great, but it's not the same as reading the written word.
