I have no idea how to achieve communism in this game because all the other people in this party are libs or evil. The justice lady got so pissed when I banned the stupid little brownshirts running around and causing problems.

hide your powerlevel until you pass the constitutional changes, members of a conservative nationalist party tend not to react well to shouting about minority rights and communism

. Absolutely bizarre that one goofy post got a loving week probe. I thought Games was supposed to be a fun, chill place, but it's worse than Reddit sometimes.

lmfao no. it’s a place to buy up every $100 ultimate edition triple A activision-ea slop and complain about how you hate games and politics, ugh I’m so above all that pleb nonsense like having fun

but yeah that’s loving absurd even by Games-standards. just mentioning “chunli is democrat voter” causes everyone to fly off the handle

like, I like mr hootings Fortnite posts itt even though I’m not a fortnit player because I like when people are passionate about things. plus it’s funny since eventually someone melts down over them and posts something inane

I gotta figure out how to budget the early game better since I went super deep into the red when deciding what to fund and not fund and I'm certain that I'm hosed now

There's a naval combat mode (pretty fun imo) and some empire management (okay, reptitive). At least from what I played in the Beta

Another new PoI teaser.

It kinda has the shape of The Citadel or Brutal Bastion. I think most of a biome is going to be changed. My speculation is the farm area or the snow area due to the other areas still being ~story important~.

3 and a half more days until the new season. Getting hyped.

Edit: another new shot of the interior of one of the new poi

One of the camera modes for this game is a view through a smartphone like you are recording while running and jumping. It is super shakey

I had an orc general start hitting on my main character right as we were getting ready to throw down in a fight to the death. I refuse to ever talk to Halsin because all the dialogue is just him being thirsty for you. This game is so horny it's starting to feel like a hentai visual novel dating simulator and makes pretty much all the companion quests and stories complete garbage.

It's pretty smart because I remember players being mad in dragon age and mass effect games that it was too hard to virtually score with your chosen love option sometimes.

BG3 gave players the ultimate fantasy of being the person in the group every single other person wants to bone.

Now players can get pretend laid early on and focus on dialogue options that aren't just fishing for it.

This is just a sign SA is getting really old. That post is a common gimmick on TikTok or Twitter, making goofy jokes about the political alignment of a games characters.

I think it’s more a sign of some posters mellowing out with age in regards to pop culture and others determined to remain the same self-serious humorless dorks they were in their early twenties. The same nerds who got mad at that street fighter post were the same nerds who swore a blood oath against Garth Ennis for writing an issue of The Punisher where he beat up Wolverine, Spider-Man, and Daredevil.

In BG3 if you kill a merchant, you can take some of their gold and also the most best items you sold to them from their corpse

however

if you knock out a merchant, you can loot absolutely all their poo poo, including things you just sold, and sell it all to someone new

I did this one time only, with the goblin merchant, because tbh there wasn’t a lot I wanted to spend gold on and selling scrolls I was never going to use was incredibly lucrative

If you knock someone out in one shot from stealth, will they be aggro to you after they wake up

if the street fighter thing was funny it would not have gotten probated probably. you will notice many people around the forums referencing political things in funny ways and they get empty quoted and nobody goes 'ugh politics'. if you dont get that and think its about goons being old or something you need to detox
