Is this really where the forums are at now? People cosplaying as gaming hipsters and pretending BG3 was just "mid" instead of obviously being the best CRPG in the last 20 years? Cool. No wonder so many of you sound permanently miserable - you must be a riot at parties.

"Hey guys, did you hear about this breakthrough that could cure cancer?"
"Meh. Overrated."

"Hey, have you seen that new movie that's supposed to be incredible in IMAX?"
"Movies are trash. I'm too cool to enjoy things."

Hits every good game. Cynicism is ratched to 11. Fun must be squashed.

Huh? You must have done something or said something wrong, because it's pretty easy to get the "we live together in a cabin in the woods" relationship ending.

Also I am seeing a recurring theme - people murdering characters then complaining about not getting into the game. You're literally killing content lol. Astarion alone has a massive amount of content tied to him.
In my first playthrough I staked/killed Asterion when he tried to bite me and it's all still available to do. You just meet the Vampire hunters as a third party and they tell you do go save the people.

I also let Wyll die because I refused to help his demon master in Act 2. I don't think it changed much of anything outside of some extra dialog.

Letting Gale die in the portal skips the most I found when doing Dark Urge, but that game bugged out in act 2 after a patch, so never got to act 3 to see if there was anything with Mystra. I don't remember seeing Elminster, but that playthrough was a long time ago.

It’s a masterpiece game with annoying characters that turned some people off on playing it. No one said it was mid.

Hey consoomer, don’t get your panties all wadded just because some folks didn’t glorify your favorite game. I don’t think anyone claimed it was “mid.” It’ll be ok man, people can have their own experiences.

Laughable given his larping in the monsters and memories thread
