Yeah, this whole millennial twitter humour thing they got going for this character doesn't really work for me.
One more reason to side with the "paladins of Tyr" I suppose.
I am always amused when I see people describing this sort of thing as "millenial twitter humor."
You know millenials and twitter did not invent fourth wall breaks, right? That the original series included numerous wall-breaks and pop culture references well before twitter existed - like a cheeky reference to the Blair Witch Project. Or blatant references to the DnD cartoon where they joked that all the characters from it were killed horribly. Or an entire extended quest sequence in ToB where you meet some low-level adventurers, send them on a quest, they try attacking you for your loot and then "reload" when they fail to kill you? And these were super easy to run across, hardly a well-hidden easter egg. Frankly I am willing to bet they had way more outright wall-breaking moments and direct references to other media than BG3 does in general. I think you'd have a hard time blaming that on millenials, given that the oldest millenials were 19 at the time the game came out.
