Second, it wasn't Larian decision until few complainers appeared

Larian was going to have a keyword dialog system (to prevent the screen turning into more of a wall of text), until a bunch of whiners complained they they wanted full dialog options. Don't you just wish people like that would shut up and stop making Larian ruin the game by adding extra dialog? That's not what Larian wanted to do (they were going to see how the alpha/beta tests went first, since in their experience people who didn't like that style were won over after trying the game).

There are even people whining about Zandalor's lack of a beard, wanting to force Larian to change their decision on that.


What are you saying, I'm pissed that this game now being made for them? Really? Yes I-fucking-am and it is damn obvious. I'm quite mad and angry.

It was known that the armour actually in the game was realistic before Larian changed the cover art used to promote the game. The game itself didn't change in this regard.


guess why the concept and art existed in a first place?

Well... not to set the design in stone, so that nothing about the game could change from what was depicted.
