My oh my ...
One left you people unchecked for just a few hours and you go soooo wild.
Im proud of you all.
There are people who would REALLY love to play BG3, but they won't because the game has sexual content even available to them. I also know people who would never let their teens even consider a game that has any potential sex scenes in it.
This is probably the only true argumend i found it all this, directly related to actual topic.
But you could also say that there are many people who would love to play BG3 ...
... if there wasnt naked organs ... like opened skull, or intestines on the ground.
... if there wasnt refugess in Druids groove ... i dunno where you are from, but the word "refugees" was a big topic in center Europe before Corona, so some people can still take it personaly.
... if there wasnt all the violence in general ... starting from fight, ending with torturing the prisoners.
... if there wasnt presentation of extraterrestrial life forms ... it might seem funny to some, but i actualy heared about people who claims they were abducked by Aliens and since it was traumatical experience for them, they therefore demands to cancel all stuff that popularize aliens.
... and im sure we would be able to find many more examples of things that "could" be trigger for someone.
In the end, the important part is that, if we remove all those potential triggers ... we would get the game, where our heroes are sitting by the (not lighted!) fire with everyone other, and dont interact at all ...
It reminds me a joke i write on Facebook some time back.
Backstory: We were discuising DnD races and wich one would we pick for out first Baldur's Gate 3 gameplay in EA, estimately about a week after it was released.
I was posting there picture of my Dwarf female warrior, with her magnificent beard and i was praising Larian with words "finaly im able to create proper Female Dwarf", since i do believe that both Dwarf genders should have some facial hair ...
I was told by multiple people that im acting offensive, since there are actualy womans "somewhere in the world" who suffers from hormonal instability that cause them to actualy grow beards. Then, after some discusion this "joke" was born:
I decide to create Female Dwarf warrior ...
But then i was told that create Females with facial hair is unsensitive from me ...
And i was ashamed of myself.
So i decided to create Halfling ...
But then i remembered that there are midgets ... who might take it personaly ...
And i was ashamed of myself.
So i decided to create a Tiefling ...
But then i noticed, they have tail ... and remembered that there are people who have rotated several links at the end of the spine ...
And i was ashamed of myself.
So i decided to create a Half-Elf ...
But there are lot of people who have mixed blood of two ethnicities ...
And i was ashamed of myself.
So i decided to create an Elf ...
Believe or not, after some research i did find out that some people actualy have health problems that cause something like pointed ears ...
And i was ashamed of myself.
So i decided to create a Drow ...
But then i realized that basicaly they are just Elves with dark skin ...
And i was ashamed of myself.
So i decided to create a boring Human.
Nobody had problem with my character and i was finaly able to play.
But then i read Larian article, where they say they are unhappy with players who created boring vault dweller.
And i was ashamed of myself.
So i decided to unsinstal Baldur's Gate 3 ...
Now everyone is happy. Except me.
