Is it possible to have a threesome with

That's at a glance not how the implementation of poly romances looks like and I really hope it actually isn't that way

So it's cool with Larin that the male love interests are himbos and you can have sex with a bear but a threesome with the two best women is taboo? I sense hypocrisy, double standards and self-righteous bigotry.

I think, what Silver meant was, that polyarmoury is not about having threesomes necessarily. It could be, that you are in a relationship with Shadowheart and she or you have another relationship with Karlach or Halsin or someone else. It does not necessarily mean, that you can have a threesome, that's a different thing.

Shadowheart seems to be an "only one" type of believer. Maybe this is just specific to my playthrough, but trying to romance both her and Lae'zel caused Shadowheart to break it off because she didn't want to be the "second lover" or something along those lines. So I think if you want her you have to have only her.

It also may have just been my combination that triggered that and she might be okay with someone else. Not entirely sure.

Honestly I was only hoping for this option to help my indecision vis-a-vis Karlach and Shart. I’ve been putting off the Goblin Leader quest because I can’t decide.

Yes. Especially since SH is seemingly not actually interested in more than one person. You'd get a threesome with two people not interested in each other just to please you. That's one thing, but in a game where companions usually merrily tell you to f*ck yourself, it's off-putting.

I'm not worried about sex scenes but I am disappointed that after making a point that the game allows for polyamory, they appear to have only made it possible if you are in a relationship with male companions and not female ones.

well there goes that dream...sailing away...lol

Do we actually know yet what Karlach thinks of it? It looks like a no from SH, but otherwise... well, there's always mods. Just probably not out yet

It is spiteful hypocritical discrimination against poly gynosexauls.

My two cents.

I think i might have seen this scene on yt. didn't she also say she wants you all to herself after she fixed her issue?

If that's the case that's really shitty tbh.. and yet these days i wouldn't even be surprised. lots of double standards

Poly gynosexuals, or cishet men with a fetish directed at lesbians? Either way, doesn't get my pity. A game can't have everything, let alone threesomes you can mod in. The less time Larian spends on poorly rendered sex scenes, the better in my opinion. They're very bad at it.

Assuming people's genders, sexualities and calling it a fetish to try to shame them is what fascists do. Way to go trying erase pansexuality and expose your misandry Silver.

Ladies and Gentleman: the representative for "this game has poly relationships, therefore no woman is allowed to say no to me"

So it is fine to have all the characters be pansexual so no one can say no to a queer player but not all be poly? Your fantasies in a fantasy game are no more valid or superior to mine. You are such a bigot that you can't delineate fantasy from reality? Would you feel better if I told you a was a poly lesbian or a sub that wanted Shadowheart and Karlach to spit roast me with strap ons?

What is your problem?

Red Queen:

Oh, me? I don't think game developers hate my guts if I can't get everything I want. Playersexuality is a dubious concept. I'm not offended if it either exists or doesn't exist, though. Nor, do I call them every word I can squeeze out of the dictionary.

Is this what you are talking about?

Regardless of the author any fantasy where only one gender or type of person can use magic is classist, sexist and ethnocentric.

I am not a misogynist, and I am not a feminist. I am a gender egalitarian. Educated yourselves.
