Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Astarion and Shadowheart Poly interactions

Of course, it wasn't Larian's intention to send such a message, but I can see why many people do find it very problematic that all three companions who are fine with poly are r*pe victims. Of course, it doesn't mean that such victims can't be poly. But many people can't help but interpret it as tone-deaf writing. Shouldn't companions who have no sexual trauma be happy with poly as well? Karlach has no sex trauma but she is visibly unhappy with Halsin's proposition. A lot of people who identify themselves as poly are not happy with this representation. It's not my personal complain, but I think Larian should be aware of the fact they needed to pay much more attention to this sensitive topic and maybe should have written it better, because they triggered a lot of people by this. These topics are very sensitive ones and not a joke.
