There's a whole month where you can talk about Baldur's Gate without even mentioning Starfield.

No idea how this is supposed to be some kind of statement.

Baldur's Gate is like a wealthy port city. It would be everything that reactionary fash types hate because it's too decadent and cosmopolitan.

Baldur's gate isn't that luxurious. Like at least half of the population is monsters. There's giant spiders in the graveyard, the sewers are clogged with beholders, and there's vampires everywhere!

actually I think you're referring to Athkatla from Baldur's Gate 2. baldur's gate itself does have the best sewers and underground ruins ever

the wizard police there are gentrifiers trying to get rid of that stuff

Starfield is only gonna have 4 romanceable characters, huh? That's low, but fine depending on how the romance story presented. Though I haven't heard anything about whether or not every character is available for any gender of the player character or if it's specific gender/sexual attraction.

Within 24 hours of Starfield's release there will be hundreds of mods catering to every fetish imaginable so the base game's dating availability is not going to matter.


You want non-gender-specific dating sims.

I want a fully nude Garfield with a mudcrab for a face and a huge hairy dick.

do bethesda games even have romances I know you can marry anyone at any time in skyrim like you're Henry viii or something but I wouldn't really say that counts

Yea, making a new engine would get in the way of Skyrim rereleases.

You can only romance your coworkers because it's made by gamers for gamers
