If you're against this you're a Baldur's Gatekeeper.

(I don't know anything about Baldur's Gate.)

Dungeons and dragons videogame

Okay, I did know that about Baldur's Gate.

I also know it's horny, had a surprisingly high budget for an RPG, and gets medieval armor wrong.

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

It's very well made. Also the characters are certainly horny but my ace playthrough is going great and all the NPCs still like me

Unless it's hardcore full-frontal from start to finish it won't accurately capture the spirit of the game. They've only got an hour per episode to pack with weird horniness.

Here's some more slop you mindless drones.

The reason I liked Baldurs Gate? The brand, obviously brainworms

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

I'd argue that the brand of D&D definitely got a lot of people to buy it that wouldn't have bought Divinity Original Sin 3.

Whatever, just another video game tv series most will forget.

wasn't there a d&d movie recently?

[–] Surreal@programming.dev 13 points 2 years ago

And it was amazing

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

Karlach's facial expression here is how I feel about this.

Somebody doesn't understand the allure of Baldurs Gate 🤔

Which ensures it'll be fast tracked and on the service by March.

Could we not though, not counting EA I'm like 60 hours in and haven't cleared act 2 - and already have plans for a second run. I don't have TIME for a BG show.

[–] FumpyAer@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

Netflix has done a choose your own adventure before. Would be interesting to see a BG3 one.

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Run-time will be split 50/50 between a live-action bisexual harem anime and random comedy violence on goblins.

Surprisingly from me, pass

[–] Commiejones@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

Put me down for $20 they do make it, $50 for it is hot trash, and $10 for they make a second season

Hey - if Larian gets some of that Netflix munny it’ll probably make another awesome game in 4-6 years. I’m down for that. And there’s still that very slim possibility it’s actually good. I’m going to choose to be cautiously optimistic.

[–] Liberalism@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

Netflix has a reasonable track record with these things, maybe I'll even watch it if they show hog.

Just don't.

Did you think three was where it would end?

There’ll be a sword coast ride at Disneyland before this is over!
