[QUOTE="TheSword, post: 9104640, member: 6879661"] Who’s saying the game shouldn’t exist? I’m saying that 95% of the game is amazing and I’d just be a lot happier if I could enjoy it without dialogues continually flirting with my PC. Like many people, I find imaginary pseudo romances weird and distracting and while I don’t mind the odd one in games, bG3 has dialed it up to 250% and then applied to soooooo many NPCs. It would have been better to have a few characters for which that can progress rather than seemingly making it a core design goal for the game to have everyone want to bump uglies. What kind of team has every single person trying to bang their boss? The problem is a social meter which has ‘leave the party’ when it drops too low and ‘sexual relationship’ when it gets high… as if they are the only two scales and the end goal of every companion. In the original BGs you had to really work to maintain the relationships in the game and progressing one shut down others… you know, like it of course would. That’s not censorship. I paid my £50 like everyone else did and I’m allowed to complain where I think they got the balance wrong. I just think it’s a shame and could have been done better. … apart from the bear… the bear sex is just totally f’d up on so many levels. [/QUOTE]
