This isn't a small indy company were dealing with here. For Sven to say it so casually during a PfH but no official indication is just strange.
They might be hoping to do the EA but are unsure if they can and so are waiting until they know for sure.

It's not even him so casually saying it. Not every fan could watch that PFH I bet. So they've read "3rd of August is new release date" and 100% didn't know about even the possibility of 72 hours early play being revoked.
That's why Larian needs to make an official statement. One way or the other, but it has to be clear and not ambiguous.

Plus someone working for them confirmed that 72 hour early access was still going to be a thing in chat during the PFH, so we're getting conflicting messages. I get that mistakes happen, but it's been several days, they should have been able to clear things up by now.

Larian should be clear when EA people are getting access so that people can plan their schedules, request time off work, etc. That's it.

As far as I'm concerned, our 72 hr early access to Act one was pushed up 28 days to include the entire game. On Aug 3rd,

(My wife is already making preparations for feeding and bathing while I stick to my chair for a week straight, I believe she is even looking for hirelings to help with this task)

I would still like some answers to the following questions I had:

Can I change the color of my genitals ?

Will I be able to have multiple colors I can add to my genitals?

Can I pierce my genitals?

Will I be able to manscape my genitals?

Will I be able to run around naked as a monk , and will I be able to see my colored Genitals?

Lastly, in all seriousness, If I play a Deep gnome can I give myself half orc Genitals? and likewise if I'm a half orc can I give myself Deep gnome genitals?

I already have a great 1st run planned, a streaking half orc barbarian with pierced genitals,

:)~

DRAGON FIRE-AND DOOM Dragons? Splendid things, lad-so long as ye look upon them only in tapestries, or in the masks worn at revels, or from about three realms off...

This is not Cyberpunk! You can have a penis or a vulva, which can be specified independently of your body type. Beyond that I'm afraid you'll just have to live with the genitals you're dealt ... or wait for the probably inevitable mods grin.

I think the corect answer is: Yes ...

Since your genitals will mimic color of your skin and you can change color of your skin ... technicaly you can change color of your genitals! :P

Lets us play Githyanki as racist as they trully are! frown

Wasting time, money and work in genitals is the least needed in a game like this. Change my mind.

Making genital models would take a trivial amount of time for any good 3D artist. Not that it should be done but hey, the cost of doing it would be pretty much null. 🤷

I would say that there a plenty of things less needed than genitals. Such as:
A schoolbook written entirely with a perfectly circular letter o rotated in different degrees to represent characters of the latin alphabet, but is a translation of Kanji representations of the hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt.

An empty shell casing from a proton shotgun built in a future version of earth from the Last of Us part II lore, but transported and retrofitted to be used in traditional Kree weaponry, before causing a misfire and being left out in space for 1.24 million years before a passing meteor collided with it and dragged it to the underdark where it was eaten by a small rat that eventually was infected by a myconid (crazy coincidence) and was finally crapped out and left in the far corner of a tiny cliff that the player has no way of accessing.

A used earbud.

But I'm just throwing out possibilities that I think would be more useless, you may think those would all be super helpful and increase the realism and accuracy of cutscenes more than genitalia for sex.

No 72 hour head start... Biggest part of me accepts this as it is. The small childish part is insanely unhappy. Meh, they better don't crunch their developers then I'm fine I guess.

I really hoped to be able to play at the end of this month, cause "this month" is so much closer than "next month" and my dumb brain can be tricked like that. But still, happy it comes out pretty much as soon as August starts!
