I've not played the game. I assume the issue is that gay people do in fact, exist in a game?

The character create has you choose your pronouns and one of the options is they/them
You can also pick your genitalia independently of your body type.
pick your genitalia
Pardon?
Is this actually a hentai game?
There's an option when you first start the game to enable "cinematic nudity".
If you toggle it on, there are some scenes where the protagonist is naked and a handful of sex scenes that you have to go out of your way to encounter.
All the genitalia option during character creation does is pick what's on display during these scenes.
Ah, I see, what queer propaganda will be next? Picking your character's name?!
😍🐻

the nightsongs gay romance is goals honestly. i want a muscular and rough 8ft tall immortal angel lady to talk about how shes gonna fuck the shit out of me in front of everyone i know
I love how she's instantly just like "I gotta fuck my gf"
I think I have to get this game
The best part about rainbows is how fucking stupid chuds look when they get mad about them. 🌈 Sorry buddy, the sky is calling you gay. Go join the frogs 🐸 and pucker up.
"god's not gonna flood the planet and he proved it by calling you gay lmao"
Must be a Chinese bot, 8 is a lucky number for them
88 is also a Nazi symbol
that's the joke
Gamers are literally the worst people ever.
I think they have a list of 14 complaints about this game
It is sort of weird that it takes 3 romantic suggestions to be able to turn down Gale but at the same time the one scenr you see people griping about (the magic scene) which asks you if you want to imagine kissing him also asks if you want to show him an image of you ripping off his head. It's clear they are uncomfortable with their just being options listed for gay romance.
I played a woman and Gale gave me huge creep vibes. I kept politely turning him down, until he isolates me on some grass field to tell me he loves me?? Fuck off dude. I've clearly shown you I'm not interested.
Next time we interact he says he's "glad to be with me, though this wasn't the way he imagined"???? Can you shut the fuck up please you incel friendzone loser.
The only time he doesnt talk about how sad he is I won't fuck him is when he talks about his ex girlfriend.
I didn't know people were mad about gay sex scenes tho.
Gale is definitely the worst companion, I was given the option to fully turn him down at the Act 1 party though
I turned him down too. Maybe some code got messed up, and he kept pursuing me?
My internal canon was basically me going "Nah dude, I'm going to fuck Karlach. The big buff woman with a nice attitude that doesn't make one nice comment into a whole thing"
this is why i only fuck druids in bear form
Its not gay if im a bear
a hex-bear
When you want to call yourself lolifan1488 and the name is already taken
probably just a nazi that's too scared to fully reveal themselves (1488) so they only reveal themselves partially (88) to keep it ambiguous lel
they're nowhere to be found when stuff like religious, traditionalist propaganda is "shoved down peoples' throat"
i'm still getting baldur's gate 3 ~~just probably once it's in a sale~~
Being born in the late 80s is a minefield of "around my age or Nazi?" when it comes to user names and emails.
well also look out for reich-wing rhetoric ~~and/or hostile tone~~ in their speech. if you find any - nazi.
Based on my experience about 60 hours in, you would need to explicitly choose to be gay to see really any gay romance in this game. Seems like this guy's version of having gay propaganda shoved down your throat is simply the presence of the choice to be gay
Why do all these homosexuals keep sucking my cock?
Reminds me of the reactionary outrage around the Sims 4 gender options. All the fine-tuning gender settings are hidden in another menu past the basic male/female toggle, but that didn't stop chuds from clicking on it and getting mad because they saw a bunch of completely optional settings for different kinds of gender expression.
They are mad about the different colored hair. Thats “gay propaganda” for them.
wait you can't be bisexual in bg3?
i fucked like all my companions and then cut it down to minthara and astarion when they got too needy (problematic evil lady in skin tight black armor, and sassy gay vampire boy)
why is this game so fucking horny lmao
It's staying true to actual DnD.
lmao wait are you serious?
(i never got to play dnd in my life)
Play D&D long enough and you'll inevitably have a campaign that features some level of erotic roleplay, usually in orgy form.
You'll also learn why good DMs tend to just fade-to-black that sort of thing, because unless everyone playing is really into that sort of thing it's going to get cringey very quickly.
I'm really into that sort of thing and i still only want to play these parts via DMs with the few players i can comfortably do this with.
To be clear, I'm also really into that sort of thing, and I absolutely would never do it sitting at a table or over a Zoom call or whatever with a group. If you were running a campaign with your polycule, sure, go nuts, but otherwise it's just squick all around.
There is no limit to what you can do really. It's up to the DM to build narrative around your decisions. If there is some character you want to try and bang, you can try to bang them. It is pretty much a rite of passage in any DnD game that someone has sex whilst all the other players sit around and sremoved at them laying on the moves. Lol at the auto-filter removing one of my words. That isn't a bad word you fools!

Steal it
I could, but:
- achievements
- not having to worry about backing up + restoring saves
- increasing my games counter and watching the playtime go up
🥺🥺🥺
you forgot one: updates
this game is going to have a ton of updates and sometimes that's a pain in the ass to deal with when pirating
Most low IQ bullshit I've read all day. Nothing I don't expect from normies though.
