In 10 years people will roll their eyes at BG3 for making every publisher add badly made sex plots in their game the same way Mass Effect formularized romances are seen today.


Oh no doubt, but in case you can't tell, the people rolling their eyes are in the minority. Just because you have an issue with Mass Effect romances doesn't change the fact that its impact has been found in almost every rpg game featuring romance going forward (including bg3)

And just because you and six other people on this thread have an issue with BG3 exploration of sexuality doesn't change the fact that thousands resonated with this exploration.

So will people have an issue with BG3 pushing the envelope? Most certainly, but as the saying goes "You can't please everyone."

'Where where you when the dong slider was added to video games!?' LMAO

Listen, you like the game and that's fine. No one can take that away from you but some of you guys really need to relax and stop treating it as a second coming of Jesus.

Revolutionary lol, renaissance lmao.


You can disagree and laugh if you want, but there's a reason it won the golden joysticks and is the front runner for game of the year at the game awards. I definitely don't believe it's any sort of second coming, (it's essentially a bioware game for the new generation) but I do believe in regards to exploring sexuality, it has push the envelope further than any "mainstream" game to date.
