Might I suggest we don’t get into another tangent about the actual writing/writers of the game or any analysis of it? That took this thread off topic for a while when we’re really trying to focus on the actual implementation of things within the game. Given Larian’s new video thanking fans of BG3, it seems like they’re still pretty set in stone on their decision to completely move on from the game once there’s another patch or two out over the coming months. Regrettable that we’re not even gonna get a definitive edition to address more of the game’s outstanding issues, but I guess Larian has decided it’s just too much of a resource sink to be worth it when the general playerbase thinks the game is good enough as is.
I’m really bummed we’re unlikely to get any new dialogue or any changes of substance beyond what we know is in patch 7, but it looks like Larian has already moved ahead enough that it’s too late to change their minds. Wish they’d have at least given some more attention to Minthara before putting a bow on the game’s narrative (I know the patch notes for patch 7 say she has new dialogue after killing Orin, but I feel like that would be the perfect place to insert a romance scene similar to the one Astarion gets after finally killing Cazador, as both of them are now free of their links to the past).
