I wanna know why people aren't asking the real questions......Is it ok for a druid to shapeshift into a bear then do it with a real bear? Is it ok for 2 druids to shapeshift into bears then do it? Is it ok for one druid to shapeshift into a bear and the other a wolf and do it? Is it ok for one druid to shapeshift into a herbivore like a deer and another shapeshift into a carnivore like a wolf? These are the REAL questions!
I'd submit that whether something's "ok" or not is neither here nor there. The game is for roleplay not moral judgement.
I'd say the real question is does anyone
want to be able to shapeshift into a wildshape form themselves during a romance scene with Halsin? Or I guess anyone else?
Though while it's a totally valid question, I kind of don't want to know the answer
Fair enough> My overall view on all this is just there is no way for Larian to make it so it fits everyone's world view so them giving us the options and we should just pick what is right for us is the best path.
I just when down a philosophical rabbit hole while reading all the comments in this post
You are right to want to ponder the deeper questions here as opposed to saying whether the scene was "right" or "wrong."
These are important questions to ask! Why is it that certain things make us feel a certain way, especially collectively, and what can be tweaked in those things to evoke a less or more severe response?
This kind of scene has never been done in a mainstream game. Violence, torture, terrorism, sex, other forms of "play," general abuse, and broad assholery have been done in video games before in the mainstream I think, but not this. So is it just because this was a first or is there something more fundamental to the reactions?
