All I want is a good game, if you can't do that without sex-scenes, that's kindof a problem in and of itself, I mean I sure know that sex-scenes are not what FR or BG are about.
I don't mind a well written romance-plot or even a proper hookup, but let's not try to make this the game's selling point, because it's not going to work, in fact, I would rather have ALL romances be cut and have a good main storyline if it comes to that.
It's almost as if all games today have to go through a set of checkboxes to appeal to as wide an audience as possible, but sadly that unevitably leads to a decrease in quality at the expense of roleplay-immersion and storytelling.
Some people in this thread seem to think that promoting sex scenes is somehow a rebellious or minority opinion somehow, when in fact it's basically in every video game now. Larian would actually be brave not to include them the same way it would be brave for them to have a silent protagonist or to stick with oldschool pirnciples or roleplaying.

I don't care about having sex-scenes, Baldurs Gate should never revolve around a dumb romance plot.


I don't think that anyone is saying that an M-rated game is obligated or made better by including sex-scenes; Hell, I am not even saying that Game of Thrones is better by including sex-scenes or nudity; However, the OP coming here to complain about them is to me the same thing as them purchasing an adult film and then complaining to the store that it had nudity.

I don't know, maybe next time the OP should look at the rating before purchasing.

Again, it doesn't help that we don't know how old the OP's child is, my niece started playing video games at 4-years old (I mean it was Castle Crashers, but still counts), so I don't know if this was just a child child (4-12), a teen child (13-17), or an adult child (18+).
