So I am playing through this for the first time (kind of late to the party, I know) and I have to say.... all the lesser races (goblins, orcs, ogres, trolls) all seem to be barbaric, cruel, senselessly violent and aggro and I have to say.... I think this is pretty refreshing and dare I say it, based. I'm so tired of the weepy faggot "humanized" orcs in shit like Warcraft and all the subversive crap. I hope BG3 never relents lol.

>>714762035 (OP)
It's based on an alignment system so goblins, drow, ogre etc are a natural evil race. Warcraft doesn't follow this.

>>714762035 (OP)
its woke slop.

nig is a prince
nig is a duke
no white male warrior
weird lesbo romance as part of the story
evil white male dad opposes her

>>714762131
>Warcraft doesn't follow this.
The Horde should have just been the evil faction.

>>714762290
I intend to kill the nig asap. He mentioned he hates Karlach, so I am assuming when those two meet, I will turn on him and get rid of him.
>no white male warrior
That's what your character is supposed to be.

>>714763163
He doesn't hate Karlach. He was just contracted to kill her for a petty archdevil.

>>714762035 (OP)
It's a pretty sneaky way to get away with the wokest RPG in a long time
>Everyone is gay and diverse, especially the heroes
>Uhhh.... but you can kill them all! So it can't be woke!

>>714762035 (OP)
guys, how much you wanna bet he will delete this woke game halfway through because he wont be able to cope with the cringe reddit dialogues?

>>714764259
The only woke aspect that bothered me was all the god damn niggers. Seriously there are so many fucking niggers in the game. Otherwise it's passable. But holy shit the niggers.

>>714764084
Ok. He mentioned he was going to kill her so I assumed it was some beef or something.

Basedmods has a nig removal mod

>>714764425
>there are so many fucking niggers in the game.

No there aren't. What niggers are you talking about?

>>714762035 (OP)
too woke for me, and the combat was too boring and braindead. Very dissapointing.

Not being racist or anything, but blacks don't belong in fantasy RPGs. They kind of ruin it.

The only blacks I find palatable in fantasy RPGs are something like the Redguards from TES. They are their own separate group from the humans and are a Moorish/North African analog, so it is congruous with the "medieval fantasy" era.

>>714764952
>blacks don't belong in fantasy RPGs

Why Blacks specifically? Are you okay with other non-whites being in the game?

>>714764952
>>714765018
pretty much anything that isnt white and heterosexual is a no-go for me.
i am suffering very heavily for nigger and jew fatigue.

my fatigue is so bad right now, i cant even watch Mad Men - no niggers in it, but half of each episode is about jews and kike imaginary problems, its disgusting.

>>714765018
Sort of. If we meet an asian looking character and he's from some vague "eastern lands" I am fine with it.

What I am not fine with is when blacks are fully integrated into a medieval setting. No one mentions it and their society is totally diverse and this is portrayed as normal. It's just out of place and subversive. Total immersion kill.

>>714765162
blacks are generally disgusting to look at, its not just immersion breaking, it just doesnt feel good when i hate to look at a black person, i only want to look at whites and asians.

>>714765162
>If we meet an asian looking character and he's from some vague "eastern lands" I am fine with it.

In BG3, you come across random Asian looking people, and it's like some attempt at appeasing all races. This bitch is 100% Asian. I'm fine with this shit as long as you can kill them. Also, the character tends to be unimportant.

https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Zarys

>>714765292
>I'm fine with this shit as long as you can kill them.
im not, i just dont want to have to look at them at all, they just shouldnt exist in the game to begin with.

>>714765359
>i just dont want to have to look at them at all

No, I completely understand. Why did you think I posted this bitch? I was like "Why is there a random Asian woman in this Fantasy setting?". If it bothers you so much then don't play. I didn't make the game.

>>714762035 (OP)
i remember when somebody set up a bot to spam bg3 threads for like a year straight, shit was crazy.

>>714762035 (OP)
>So I am playing
No you are not. Kill yourself, shill.

>>714765158
>anything that isnt white and heterosexual is a no-go for me.

Well, I don't agree. I liked Baldur's Gate 3 a lot; Mainly because everything is optional. Like, let's say the game has a Black character. I don't like this character before even speaking to him, but I have the option to not speak to him at all, and that's what BG3 is like.
I'm sure there's non-whites of every race on 4chan, but you don't have to speak to them. If someone played video games that only had Whites, they'd still have to suffer 4chan. That's why a bit of exposure via games isn't bad.

>dude, this modern dnd slop for normalfags is actually... le based!!!
Reddit is that way. This is DnD after it was declared all races are epic wholesome chungus and just like le people because racism is le bad. If you want an actual "based" rpg, just play battle brothers.
Also no idea why shill this "girl gamurrr xD" slop long after the viral marketing campaign ended.

>>714765653
Nah, for real. I played a 2 hour trial of the game and by the end I was like "shit, I kind of want to play more". I'm like 5-6 hours into the game now.

I genuinely do like that, so far, the goblins and ogres are full on blood thirsty psychos (even in their dialogue). I was fully expecting them to be nice and delicate and the mean ole' humans were just nasty towards them. But no these do seem to be the classic tropes, real goblins, real ogres. The human/humanoid characters are being terrorized by them. I kind of love it so far.

>>714763163
>I intend to kill the nig asap.
I like his Patron though so I kept him.

>>714766181
>This is DnD after it was declared all races are epic wholesome chungus and just like le people because racism is le bad.
No there definitely seems to be evil races in BG3, which is why I made this thread. I think this is pretty refreshing.

>>714765535
Half the threads of /v/ are clearly bots these days anyway. This whole board is fucking dead, so hard to find actual threads to discuss stuff between all the tiktok posters and waifufag shit.

>>714765653
>shill
The devs have already been working on another game for maybe 3+ years. kek the game itself released like 2 years ago

>>714766309
No, you are definitely just fucking stupid

>>714766414
I think you're stupid. And I think your dad is stupid too.

>>714766391
Will the troon retard get triggered by Larian's next game too?

>>714766524
Obviously.

I am enjoying the game but it doesn't feel real to me in the way BG1/BG2 did. I think it's indicative of modern D&D, and thus of modern young people and how they interact with fantasy. Fantasy when I was a kid was about believable worlds that you soak up as you go along. The fun came from the world feeling real and "thick." The best way I can describe it is that it felt like a pyramid: broad base, middle section, and then the really cool stuff on top feels justified.

BG3 feels like an inverted pyramid. Every character you meet is the kind of character people made fun of in tabletop RP when I was a kid. Every location and quest has this "unearned" unreality to it, it's too quirky, too fantastical, too self-aware, against too small a backdrop of "basic" plausibility. My party is full of the most wacky and outrageous characters Faerun has ever seen. Everybody is so unique that they shine like a rainbow-colored sun.

It's still very fun and well-written, and I know this is just how Larian writes games, but I do see it as a sign that something has been lost in fantasy and tabletop RPGs. When I watch the occasional Youtube video with zoomers playing games, everything is like "the half-demon half-dragon sneed is working for an arch-lich duke of a town of goblin lesbians who worship a ..." It's just too much. It feels more like people are looking for occasions to bring their Marvel movie character's distinctiveness to the fore than having adventures in a real (albeit fantastical) world with real stakes. The "weight" is lost. Back in the day when people described their D&D adventures, you got the sense that the big bombastic war they fought with some lich was after hundreds of hours of buildup playing as a regular party. Now they START with the story about how they fought an intergalactic war against the Mind Flayers and saved the world by putting the lesbian dragon queen back on the throne.

The dewoke mod is pretty good, however the male Aylin is way gayer than what it replaces, I wish there was a way to disable that shit.

>>714766570
If they called the game Divinity OS3 instead of BG3 it would have still sold the same.

>>714766614
>I wish there was a way to disable that shit.

You can just let Shadowheart kill her at the end of Gauntlet of Shar if you don't like her.

>>714765158
Nobody's forcing you to play or watch anything you don't like, anon. If Mad Men's bothering you that much, maybe take a break and go rewatch something that still gives you that classic feeling without the baggage. Plenty of old shows and games still out there untouched by modern nonsense. Getting mad every time you turn on the TV probably ain’t doing you any favors either.

>>714762290
>ignore trapped demoness in mindflayer colony resulting in the death of both the nig and a woman that dares talk down on me
>ignore duke nig, resulting in his death
>always let shart do the deed, lesbo deserves death
>come back to inn to spit on her corpse one last time, slayer form? don't mind if I do
yep it's gaming time

They dropped the ball so hard on the races they had and didn't use for party members. Alfira is the obvious one, especially since a Bard in the party would finally be new (instead of the obvious Mage, Fighter, Cleric etc). I would also love a Halfling, Gnome or Dwarf party member and they had several throughout the game they could have used and would work.

>>714766701
I don't care about the character, I just think the modded male version they replaced her with feels infinitely more gay than the original female lesbian character.

>>714766570
An example of this: When you finally get to the Underdark in BG2 it's like "wow, I'm going to the UNDERDARK?" Seeing all these exotic races feels like a reward: you are finally a heavy-hitter, you DESERVE to see Deep Gnomes and Drow, but you still feel like a fish out of water in a world that you weren't meant to survive in. In BG3, you just stumble into it and do fine in it. Nevertheless, the Underdark in BG3 is really cool and I enjoy it.

Another example: People in BG1/BG2 wouldn't even know what a Gith or Mind Flayer is. Faerun doesn't deal with extradimensional invasions every five seconds. But in BG3 the game leads with them. That was kind of jarring. But again, I'm enjoying it anyway.

One of the reasons Planescape was so fun is that it plops you into the extreme, non-Faerun side of the Forgotten Realms right off the bat, and you DO collect a party of misfits, exactly the kinds of weird characters (succubi, modrons, githzerai) that exist in Sigil. But it felt earned because it was against a backdrop of games set in Faerun. BG3 feels like PS:T-tier weirdness smack in the middle of Faerun from level 1.

But I think it's implied that your character is not really "level 1." You sort of start the game with Level 12+ Interestingness, implied. That justifies your ability to attract Planescape-tier companions to an extent.

>>714766685
Yeah agreed, it feels more like Divinity.

I don't elf but daddy Halsin is hot.

>>714762035 (OP)
I still remember how they made the party less hostile or sketchy to appease redditors, hence why Wyll got a complete rewrite from something that had more potential of being interesting to a boring as fuck good goy bullied by a devil, because Larian couldn't accept the black was just going to be less popular simply because he's black.

>>714767423
What was he like originally?

>>714763163
>That's what your character is supposed to be.
Clearly not, since Larian made the default custom character a black woman with an afro, and used said character for trailers and such, while complaining most players played a white guy.

>>714767213
>Yeah agreed, it feels more like Divinity.
I really hope the rumours are true and they're going Sci-fi for the next project. Whilst I loved Divinity and BG3 I'm a little exhausted with traditional D&D/fantasy stuff.

>>714766309
Retard.
>>714766524
Why would a troon get triggered over a game made by troon lovers?

>>714767459
Basically came across like he cared less about actually being heroic, and just being lauded as one. His eye was also taken by a goblin so he wanted to always gut them. Him and Mizora as well seemed to be on better terms. He was still weaker then the rest of the party but it had more potential to do something interesting imo.
Also Shadowheart was more of a bitch (I swear she could show up in camp in a trance, ready to kill you for the artifact unless you offered her to join) and Gale more condescending and sketchy. If you refused to give him a magic item he'd just tell you he dealt with it himself, and could only find out using the tadpole he made a deal with Raphael in secret about it.
Those were taken out because people complained the party had too many evil people or assholes (which was a fair point in a way especially since Karlach wasn't a companion till release).

>>714767975
>Why would a troon get triggered over a game made by troon lovers?
Its usually because it's not on a Nintendo console.

>>714768021
Damn, that's awesome. Shame they changed it. I romanced Shart and was disappointed at how much of a pushover she is. Before I finished random goblin genocide quests in the first act she was already in love with me and I was like "huh?"

>>714767665
>you get a white male male wizard, a white male rogue, and a white female cleric
They left "white male warrior" for you, the MC, with a wink and a nod, anon

>>714766894
I'm pretty sure people found in the files there was meant to be a female gnome lycanthrope companion. And Minsc listed as an origin, that he was meant to be one of the ones on the ship at the start who'd join you or you could play as.

>>714767975
You didn't even play BG3, but your angry. It's funny.

>>714768090
People did have a point in that the party was just dickheads and evil people, but neutering the existing party members was not the right call imo.
Larian responding to player feedback is great, to a point. I feel like sometimes they're too eager to please everyone at the cost of the vision they had in mind.

>>714768138
>I'm pretty sure people found in the files there was meant to be a female gnome lycanthrope companion
Yeah that goes all the way back to Early Access builds. Helia. She has a ton of voiced lines too, probably would have been fun.

>>714768134
Except by default, Tav is a negress and Durge is a scalie, and that's how they were marketed.
That is clearly what Larian envisions them as by default.

>>714768328
I think you just want to be angry about something

What did we think about Jaheira in the game?

>>714768438
She was my favorite in BG2 because I like cunty women so I was excited to see her.

>>714768424
I just know that's how developers think. Unless it's an obviously randomised character when you open the character creator, that is what they consider the default version of the character. Tav by default is a black woman. Durge by default is a white dragonborn. V in Cyberpunk is a mutt woman.

>>714768438
Mad I couldn't fuck her again.

>>714762035 (OP)
Yeah for all the cries of "woke", the game is surprisingly bereft of the wholesome quirk chungus faggotry the modern "no evil races" fantasy community is infested with. Goblins, drow, Duergar, and ogres are universally kill on sight.

>>714768438

>>714768438
She was great, I actually thought the voice actor did a great job too.

>>714768438
At the point where you get her as a companion I was already running with Shart/Foggy/Ast so I never bothered to use her.
The only time I did end up using her was on my Bhaalist Durge playthrough. Having to kill her after I accepted my place as his Chosen was pretty neat, even if I did 1-turn her entire party.

>>714765158
>i cant even watch Mad Men - no niggers in it, but half of each episode is about jews and kike imaginary problems, its disgusting.
anon the only reason to watch Mad Men is Christina Hendricks in a tight dress, you can skip everything else, she's literally the entire show.

>>714762035 (OP)
It is weird how the game seems to want you to talk to and control the goblins though, I just sneak up and kill them all, why would I let them roam free and kill more people? They're evil and better off dead.

>>714768438
sexy granny

>>714768438
killed her at first encounter

>>714769572
>It is weird how the game seems to want you to talk to and control the goblins though

It doesn't. If you pass every dialogue check and reach Halsin without a fight, he'll just tell you to kill the leaders. Working with the goblins is the evil path, and it's one of two choices.

>>714769572
because you'll see some funny shit, like the one goblin roasting a dwarf

>>714762035 (OP)
larian managed to make bg3 more cringe and reddit than i thought was even possible, its a fantastic parody of BG2, 10/10 will never install it again.

>>714769572
Yeah it's a bit of a weird option, but I guess given the situation Tav and the crew are in (implanted with mindflayer parasites with some implied connection to whatever the Absolute is), they might be desperate enough to work with the goblins for help.
Once it's clear they can't help remove the parasites however, there's no reason to leave the goblins alive unless you want roleplay as a huge dick. Even siding with Minty and purging the grove still leaves the goblins hostile to you.

>>714768438
Hotter then Lae'zel and Shadowheart.

>>714762131
Drow aren't naturally evil, half of them are just brainwashed by Sharshit. The other ones are pure evil tho.

>>714762290
You can very amazingly humiliate and kill those 2 niggers (NIGGERS, not nig) in various and creative way.
You can betray and/or kill the lesbians in several way a part of the story and at any time you want.
White male dad did nothing wrong and you can easily explore his backstory and empathise with him heavily.
Remember, you were offered these choices several times and you declined them. You are, indeed, a FAGGOT

You don't have to waste any time, you pick the option to humilliate them first, then kill them, it's pretty simple.
Nigger companions make up not even 1% of the game.

Yes, you have to make a decision about every main NPC involved in the story, it's literally the "role playing" part of RPG.
