Thread 718658787

All of companions in this game are primarily made to romantically/sexually appeal to normie women, dykes, and fags.
It's a shitty dating sim cast, not a fantasy adventure party.

fuck this tumblr fanfiction of a game.

>>718658787 (OP)
Make your own party of faceless mooks that you can micro however you like

/v/ pretending this game wasn't woke was the funniest 4chan storyline of 2023.
It was a combination of tumblrtards that didn't want to admit the game they liked was wokeslop and /pol/tards that didn't want to admit that a woke game succeeded.

It's woke and it flopped.
Prove me wrong with an official sales report.

I regret so much buying this.

>>718658787 (OP)
the highest proof of why this game is so woke is that they didnt simply add a toggle to turn the game dialogue hetero or homo, depending on your choice. Nono, you HAD to read those homoerotic advances, everyone just HAS to be a homo. You are not allowed to play a fantasy game with normal hetero people in it, not even as an option.

>>718658998
why don't you accept numbers that obviously show the game success like the number of steam reviews or using the number of people that finished the game to extrapolate the sales with the % of owned achievement?

25m lifetime sales is pretty much the minimum for this.
next Larian RPG will be fucking amazing, they have so much fuel and no overbearing IP owner.

No need, they manage that on their own

>>718661169
Exactly. That's why BG3 fans are making these threads: to make haters look retarded and get people talking about it. It's working because people keep replying

>>718661238
Well, several Larian devs are on the record giving figures for sales. Swen said it did twice DOS2, which means 15m +. Larian doesn't really need to publish figures since it's not publicly traded, but I'm sure it will eventually happen sometime in the future. It'll come down like a thunderstrike on the jeet and he'll shit up the board even harder than he ever did over it, sadly.

>>718658787 (OP)
It's a good game but yeah, the companions are pretty weak.

>>718661238
The pajeet is retarded and his question is retarded. The sales numbers and revenue are one google search away. Typical retarded pajeet

This isn't a report though, it's something you can claim to be a mistake under scrutiny.
>Swen said it did twice DOS2
There isn't a report for DOS2 either, so the 15m number is taken out of your ass.
>Larian doesn't really need to publish figures since it's not publicly traded
30% ownership by Tencent places an obligation on them to make a report for them, so why not make it public?

Those are not bg3 revenue numbers, it's company in general, and it can be Larry throwing money at the studio to try and force behaviours for all people here care.
>>718661562
Okay, so officially releasing sales isn't a problem then?

You will never ever post a gameplay webm.

>>718661614

So you trust Larian's internal reporting over independently published financial reports used by multinationals across the globe? You are one retarded stinky pajeet

>>718661696
>Okay, so officially releasing sales isn't a problem then?
Where did you get your idea that they don't publish sales because of a problem? they just don't want to, same reason they didn't release the DOS2 sales.

>>718661768
Yes, I will trust something they will have to take responsibility for in front of their tax services and government rather than some random woke shill wants the reality to be.

>>718661696
You can read the statement and see where the revenue is coming from you fucking retard

Yeah, right, this is the reason.

Swen said it sold 7.5 million copies. https://www.eurogamer.net/larian-on-signing-baldurs-gate-3-approaching-a-new-era-and-games-youve-never-heard-about
>30% ownership by Tencent places an obligation on them to make a report for them, so why not make it public?
You kinda answered your own question. Only Tencent owns shares in Larian, so the report doesn't need to go public. It's not publicly traded, it's preference shares sold to just one investor.
>Okay, when
Dunno, but it's an inevitability. They're not gonna pass up on the opportunity to announce "BG3 sold 30 million copies".

Dismissed.

>>718661098
The ingame reason is being partially lobotmised by the parasite did a reset but really it’s just the Metroid or DMC gameplay argument of “if they were started as strong as they were before there’s no game”, although Gale is definitely a bizarre entry out of all the companions, Asterian despite being 240 years old makes sense starting so shitty considering he spent probably a good 220 of those years locked in a box while being fed only rats.
Still wish we had a dwarf or Dragonborn companion

BG3 isn't listed there specifically as a separate item.
It's just blurry enough to make anything fit.

nta but "the revenue of this game studio isn't coming from the sales of said game but from a random 3rd party showering the studio with money " is nuclear level cope

>>718658787 (OP)
it's always been a gay dating sim parading as an RPG - they just wanted diversity shekels, and got their GOTY because of DEI being worshipped at the time.

Play Rogue Trader if you want a proper CRPG, BG3 is bullshit.

Why not? Success breeds success, flaunting your amazing sales will give you more sales, Tencent knows this, hasbro knows this.
The only reason not to do so is to hide a flop.

Ah, so never lmao, since they already passed the opportunity to say "it sold 20 million copies".

I mean, Swen already said it sold 15 million, so cope and seethe.

>>718662136

Sales report for the game or gtfo.

>>718662234
>How is that any different from a "report", then?
Official written statement comes with actual responsibility.
>Larian is not publicly traded, there is no need to flaunt success.
Are you retarded? Big numbers attract more numbers. Big sales attract more sales.
It's the same shit as with MMO's player count reports keep players and get in new ones if they're high, and kill the game when they're low, that's why blizzard stopped doing them.
>I mean, Swen already said it sold 15 million, so cope and seethe.
No, he said "double dos2", which also doesn't have a sales report.

You pick one wrong conversation option and the next thing you know a mind flayer is asking consent to shove all of it's face tentacles up your ass

>>718662192
Retarded pajeet.

>>718662192
I don't need an official report, the game is a big success everywhere you look :

-Lots of Steam reviews
-Lots of Youtube views both for the music and for the game in general
-Lots of mods on Nexus and Io
-A very high revenue directly sited as being the result of bg3 sales.
-Larian opened an entirely new studio after the release of BG3, that would be impossible if bg3 was a flop.

you are just a delusional retard who decided that "no official report = flop" was a universal truth for no fucking reason.

I wouldn't say they were made with some purpose like that, they were simply written by incompetent danger hair without any life experience outside of their campus.

BioWare didn't open a new studio after veilguard they even fired half the staff , because it was an actual flop and not your schizophrenia.

It's that simple! All the sex scenes and romance are optional and every character is killable (though some are increadably difficult).

>>718663372
Show me the USAID report. I need the official statement from USAID. I will be assuming the revenue came from sales until I see the report

I've grown to really like these threads
Even when you're at your lowest point life, and you feel like you've accomplished nothing, always remember: at least you're not mentally ill enough to repeatedly spam the same screenshots and posts over and over again on 4chan in a crusade against some random video game that came out 3 years prior
It's oddly comforting, innit

>>718663421
If it works for you, you could've just played it normally from the beginning. BG3 doesn't really have a story, the things just happen and your character has to make an actual effort to become a part of it. It doesn't seem like any writer had any motivation working on the game after act 1 at all.

>add evil goth girl as companion
>actually she’s not evil but sweet girl underneath and her adoptive-family made her evil

It’s that easy

>>718663593
The story is first removing the tadpole from your brain, then stopping the evil Ketheric Thorme and then either siding with or destroying the illithids in the final act.

>>718663372
if you believe the stats then you can get the sales....
You have the number of people that finished the game and on steam you have the % of people with the "finished the game" achievement.
Using that you can get the number of sales at the time the stats were released.
It was 15M last time i checked.

>>718663269
>these are still sales...
I dunno, looks like "activations" to me.
>because if was a internet lolcow you disingenuous fuck
It had views BEFORE it became a lolcow and the exact same fucking argument was used for it by shills, and the exact same argument is being used for gta6 as well.
>these mods aren't even on the website I talked about
And that sure doesn't contribute to your case, because cosmetic mods are not content mods.
>where else would the revenue come from
Larry throwing money at it.
>BioWare didn't open a new studio
Well of course, they were an animated corpse since Dragon Age 2. Necromancer just lifted his spell.

>>718662474
This is the nail in the coffin. How people could still think this game was a failure is beyond me

>>718662604

Half Life - Guy banned from /vr/ and /v/ roughly thirty times.
Ace Combat / Project Wingman - Guy that wants to play sims and can’t comprehend an arcade style jet game.
Many more I’m not listing them all.

>>718663649
You don't remove it though, so you've just made up these supposed later steps on the fly. It's like they stopped paying their writers after the first act, or simply fired them and got some activists for free to write about the benevolent refugees and the importance of protecting the squatters.

you have to own the game to buy the game.

if you don't accept these data then what stop you form also saying that they are lying on a sales report? you could just say that they gave the keys...
you logic is circular no matter what data or fact people throw at you, you always deflect by a different version of "it's fake".
if in 6 month they announce 20M sales you will just claim that they are still lying and demand bank statement or some other retarded demand.

This conversation is the perfect example, you got btfo by the revenue statement so instead of accepting that you were wrong you just invent a mysterious 3rd party that secretly donate 100s of million of $ to larian.

>>718663817

>then what stop you form also saying that they are lying on a sales report?
With a sales report they bear responsibility before their government who will investigate them for tax fraud if they reported lower numbers prior to the public one.

If it's going to be written and by an official account, then I will accept it, and officially congratulate the left on having exactly ONE woke success in 15 years.

>With a sales report they bear responsibility before their government who will investigate them for tax fraud if they reported lower numbers prior to the public one.
no retard a sales report doesn't engage you to anything, REVENUE DOES and you already got btfo in that department.

>>718665168
Revenue is more detailed with actual tax reports, so if the fat larry bux doesn't align with the publicly reported sales they are going to get raped.

>>718665401
KEK stop talking out of you ass.
"fat larry" is this really you final cope?
Even if(massive if) your "fat larry " was real, they can just release sales that match the fat larry"s money.

>>718667651

I don't give a fuck about Larian; their finance firm released the numbers
So anyway: where's your report proving these numbers wrong? Show me your report bro

>>718667651
Where. Is. Your. Report. Proving. The. Numbers. Wrong. >>718667067
I'm still waiting, faggot.

>>718667914
They released obscure numbers that do not suggest in any way how much of the revenue came from *sales* of BG3.
The burden of proof is still on their side, and the fact of obfuscation along with refusal to release the sales numbers when they have to report them to Tencent is proof of them hiding a flop, right until the moment of them bragging about the numbers officially.

>>718668095
Burden of proof is still on you, and you will not be able to shift it >>718668119

>>718668119
>that do not suggest in any way how much of the revenue came from *sales* of BG3.
This seems pretty clear to me >>718662474
In any case, the burden of proof is on you.
Show me a report proving the numbers wrong and I'll accept it.
Should be easy.

>>718668119
the fact that you argument is :
the report is "revenue form bg3 : $500M"
instead of "revenue from the sales of bg3: $500M"
is fucking hilariously, I hope you are baiting because you are really good at it.

>>718668319
>This seems pretty clear to me
Point to the word "sales", please.
I'm not interested in "donations", which this encompasses.
>In any case, the burden of proof is on you.
No, it is not. It will remain on your side right up to the point of Larian releasing an official sales report, clearly stating how many copies were sold.

>>718668610
When a company claims revenue FROM some product designed to be sold, it means the revenue is from that product being sold.
You are retardedly claiming this isn't the case so the burden of proof is on you.
So, show me a report from a firm as legit as Larian's proving that the revenue isn't from sales, and I'll admit defeat.
Show me the report.
Come on anon, should be easy.

>>718663762
because resetting the router or using a proxy service is a lot easier than making 5000 accounts for a schizo

>>718668507
Yes, because "revenue" can be
>sales: 100m
>donations: 200m
>other:200m
While the only metric of the actual success here is the sales.

>>718668610
>donations
Larian isn't filed as a charity so any donations they receive wouldn't fall under revenue—try again.
Or: show me a legit report proving the numbers wrong >>718668645
Burden of proof is on you.

>>718668770
>>donations: 200m
>>other:200m
cool but you don't have any proof of that , so you are wrong by default, just admit it.

>>718668770
>>donations: 200m
Proof?

>>718668645
Revenue encompasses more than just sales.
You are being a retard employing the "prove to me there is no god" russel's teapot kind of argument. It is your job to provide proof and it is my job to poke holes in it to disprove it, which is what we're doing. The burden of proof is still on your, because it's your claim bg3 is a success, which is being challenged.

>>718668796
Kickstarter falls under donations, behind the scenes shit falls under there as well.
There is also "investment".

>>718668946
>poke holes
there is no hole that why you invent "fat larry" with no proof

>>718668928
it is an example, retard.

>>718658787 (OP)
BG3 is successful because it had no woke in it and avoided all of them.

>>718668946

>>718669101
>doubles down on reading comprehension issue.

>>718669113
Show me the actual numbers then and show me proof for them

>>718669174
you claim that the revenue from bg3 is from "donation" and "other" with no explanation or proof of anything. you have nothing, cope more.

>>718669163
Kickstarter is a donation to the development of the game, as an example.
It will still be listed as a "FROM TITLE".
And this wording opens up a venue for someone who wants to force behaviors to skew the numbers, which is why they would want to hide the sales.

>>718669232
>>718669310
Lack of proof of success is proof of a flop.
Obfuscation is proof of lack of proof of success.

>>718669364

Why the FUCK would "Revenue from BG3" mean "Revenue NOT from sales of BG3".
You're just assuming and asspulling
PROOF.

>>718669503
>Lack of proof of success is proof of a flop.
the revenue is proof...
that why you invent bullshit to try (and fail) to disprove it.

>>718669503
Lack of proof of failure is proof of success.
Obfuscation of lack of proof of failure is proof of lack of proof of failure.

you are actually retarded.

>>718670260

Prove that the sales report is need.
Prove that the numbers are inflated by Larian Fink himself.
I need a report as legitimate or more legitimate provided by Larian's finance firm.

>>718670268
The point I have made is this obfuscation leaves this possibility and there is every motive for this to happen.
And as long as there is no sales report, it's a confirmation of obfuscation and fabrication of a fake success story.
And it will remain this way right until the moment sales report is released.

>>718670260
>Sales report or gtfo.
no matter how many time you repeat it , no sales report= flop '" is not a good argument.

Prove this. What's your evidence for it?

You're not a private company, you're 30% owned by Tencent.
And you made the game in collaboration with WOTC and they are not a private company either.

This.

Bullshit. Valve doesn't give sales figures and we all know they're successful.

>>718670835
>You're not a private company, you're 30% owned by Tencent.
Larian is a private company.... Tencent having 30% doesn't change that.
do you even know what being private vs public mean?

This was a thread about companions, not fucking revenue, why the fuck you care about it so much?
Offtopic shit like this should be bannable, holy shit

Still waiting on proof that the figures are faked . . .

>>718670926
>Larian is a private company.... Tencent having 30% doesn't change that.
Holy fucking cope
>>718670910
Valve is *actually* a full private company though.

You will not get your one woke success story without a sales report.

Larian: 1 finance report
Schizo: 0 finance reports
Where's the report bro?

>>718670890
what? a sales doesn't count of the player didn't beat act 1 or played less that 50 hours. that your argument you fucking retard?
Do you even know that most game have a completion rate of like 20%?
This" less than 50 hours" people are perfectly normal and you can find them in any steam reviews of a long game.
Like I said you have no argument.

very brave of you

> Appeals to normies.
> No normie knows what D&D or BG3 is.
I think normies used to have more varied tastes. Like, everyone used to play Ages of Empires and Warcraft and shit. Nowadays, everyone just plays Fortnite, COD, some sports game, mobile games, or Roblox. A game like BG3 would have been huge among normies in the 2000s.

If Tencent didn't invest in Larian BG3 actually would have been MORE woke. As it stands, thanks to China, BG3 wasn't very woke at all.

>>718671812
Valve didn't release anything woke in the entirety of it's existence, so I don't care.
What I do care about is Larian hiding the sales report of the ultrawoke game that is supposed to be the breakout success story that rivals Elden Ring and Black Myth Wukong.

>>718672007
>Valve didn't release anything woke in the entirety of it's existence
Deadlock.
Also https://store.steampowered.com/sale/lgbtq-sale/
So yeah, you're wrong.
Valve is a CCP puppet.

>>718671880
>doubling down on retardation
They have to report their sales to Tencent, so the report exists, and the decision to not make it public is conscious.
Therefore the sales are being actively hidden, therefore it's a flop.

>>718671995
It's a roleplaying game. I think being woke or whatever the hell you want is fine. There should be some kind of racist mode. I mean, it's a roleplaying game after all.

>>718672096
maybe they just down want to , did you even think of that? why must everything be a conspiracy with people like you?

Sex is one of the only themes the writers experienced themselves and can dress up to put into a fantasy setting.

>>718678590
Sure, but we were talking about the lone nonfunctional autistics like the BG3 guy in this thread. He’s not sharty here to do an epic raid, he’s just retarded and delusional.

I learned so much about this game from this thread
Especially the gameplay

>>718678956
I would classify the threat of a single autist with an axe to 4chan to be a negligible one.
Like, what is he gonna do? Cut the internet line from the 4chan servers with his axe to knock down the site.
