One side wants original, more complex characters, the other wants "cruel, selfish, racist, arrogant and a mass murderer". Though judging from the nothing burger arguments you made earlier, maybe you agree with them? That "Aerie is a childish whinny girl, Jaheira is a self-righteous harper and Sarevok is always a puppy dog."

I... don't read every single post here unfortunately. So I apologize that I couldn't care less.

That argument I was made is to state that people has different perception of what a character should be.

You think Aerie is not childish whinny girl and Jaheira is not self-righteous, that is valid - what I was saying is that Aerie being childish etc is *also* valid.

I hope this is not too complex to understand.

And what exact development did we get? Can you tell the difference between development and sudden retcon?

You humor me 10th, you will humor me 11th and so on.

So, which one is the same with the one we got in BG3? None of them, also *all* of them.

You seems to be very disturbed by this changes, all I can offer is patting you in the back for this dark time you are having.

No thank you, we're good, get that woman out of our game please.

I take it that you agree that it's all comes down too "I don't like the writing"? (Since it actually is, regardless of the moot arguments you are having with other member of the forum, which opinions also moot, and yes, also mine is moot!).

I think the Season 8 GoT was fine. If it was up to me, I'd make Robert Baratheon sailing over the Island where Danny was in Season 1 and chop her head twice.

But you see, this is an ideal world, *my* ideal world. But I don't live in it. I live in a world where the series ends with Dany become a Hitleress.




I am beginning to think this thread will become self-help thread to help people cope with the adjustment syndrome they're having since the lore changes finally hit them hard with the new game..
