I think there is a need to involve statistics\the group to see the scale of the case and the categorical attitude of this group about it. Maybe it looks like an appeal to the group to make your opinion stronger, sort of.
But it's a statement of what it really is, what can I say.
A lot of people didn't like it? Yes.

5 thousand - it's not much, probably.
Besides, not many people play this way, as many as massacre grove and take Minathra. It's no secret that 70% of players play good path, Larian himself admitted that “they were not afraid to make content that no one will see” about evil. Although I have a personal observation that something spooked them after all.
I wanted to vote “both” because the context of how sloppy everything was spoils the whole thing. Especially since people comfortably chose “gentle” with this character, it was the right thing to do.

If you have a neck zone trigger and not a kink, are you not allowed to capture Baldur's Gate with a man in the path of evil?
It's specifically about fetish\kink, script says that Tav enjoyed it while being strangled :3

5k That's just the people who follow the content creator, who take the time to go to the ‘community’ tab on YouTube. Most people either didn't say anything or emailed Larian quietly.
People in general don't like to, you know, waste their nerves.
I'm sure not everyone even has the time or inclination to post here.

Yes, among other things this:

Have Larian add opitions discussion that Tav is worried about that wisdom check, especially if it served to break up, there was no problem with that.

Intimacy and consent it's best to leave it alone as it was on release.

It's wild that I'm writing about this at all, to write a romantic scene with words of pleasure and then on 14 Feb be sad and angry about the same thing.

My personal acquaintances couldn't generally write a word, let alone participate in this debate where someone wants a character to do abuse,
sexually assaulting,
laughing while doing it, towards all player characters, because "that's the narrative", but now suddenly at least on opition. laugh
Well, the narrative was only in the fanon, interpretations, I don't know what anyone was guided by, not considering that in the game's story everyone enjoyed it with consent.

That's right.
