My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.

I had a convo with gale at the celebration post goblin camp and he was all about inviting me to see some magic trick and I was like cool, sure why not
then I speak to asterion and he's like "so your'e gonna fuck gale huh? Good on ya man"
I was like, what?
the romance in this game is definitely forced and overly aggressive
Yeah I just had a scene where wyll asked me to dance and I was ready to dunk on him with my skillz but instead they danced and make out and the game didn't even ask me if I wanted to
This is the classic mass effect dialogue option meme where you pick a mellow option and then the MC lashes out.
A: "No." B: "that's a great idea"
You pick a. Then: "Why would you ever suggest that idea, that's horrible, I want you out of my group!"
One of my favorite youtube channels did a riff on this

Okay I just spent a while watching some of their videos <.<; Thanks(?) for sharing... I think... 🤔
Ugh, I hate bad PC writing. It's bad enough when it's "I agree 100%," "I agree 100% and wanna s your d," and "You're the stupidest, ugliest, evilest piece of absolute crap I have ever seen in my life and I'd kill you myself if it wouldn't get your blood in the carpet" but then some games just insist on somehow making it non-obvious which is which >:|
You might have missed a lot of signals over the years if you didn't grok that his hips weren't lying.
Yeah, but that doesn't mean I wanted to be water brothers with him!
HAHA gross but I love all the John Carter stories, I'm going to read that book for the different take on mars.
"hi lae'zel we just met --"
"i want your moisture"
ohhhhkay
I literally took all the options that piss her off short of killing her and she still tried coming onto my PC.
I really hope that has been fixed.
I mean, being a combative dick to her is pretty much her aphrodisiac.
Any other character I'd agree with you, but I wouldn't be surprised if Lae'zel is into that.
Yup, sounds pretty much in character.
Spoiler
I mean she literally has you fight her as a romantic encounter, initiative roll and all.
Bae'zel fucking me after I slaughtered the whole goblin camp was totally ok for her character.
The article said it was a bug remember
they've been tweaked? I started playing last week and I still feel like everyone is desperate for what's in my pants
Maybe you just know how to charm people?
There’s been at least one patch and one hotfix in the past week, one of them might have done it
I think I have this same bug [humps comment button]
I thought it was a feature.
How do I keep the bug? I like the horniness! There should be a switch in the options to enable extra horny.
God I wish I loved this game as much as I love the headlines it makes, but my max CHA archfey warlock failing every other persuasion roll just left a bad taste in my mouth.
Have you tried having better luck?
Yes, but on the way I tripped over a black cat and fell under a ladder onto a mirror, which then broke.
It took me til halfway through Act 2 to realize you're supposed to click on roll bonuses like Guidance before rolling in order for them to be added to your total
The fact that you didn't know this means you were not getting the guidance bonuses from the deity.
If that happened to me in tabletop, I'd probably go knock over some tables at their respective chapel
(Take it as in-lore and with good humor lol)
To be fair, even with the bonuses, and karmic dice enabled, you can still end up rolling a 1 multiple times in a row.
That's why I save on the roll screen before I toss the die. Go through inspiration/tools first. Then reload if I get fucked over. Because it just sucks failing a DC10 when you can only fail on a 1, since the game does not let you just take a 10.
Disable karmic dice and save scum before you roll.
The save scumming is what pulled me out of the game. :( Felt like I was meta gaming and I didn't want to do that in a D&D game.
My wife, a player since the early betas, was shocked that in the first 10 hours of playing after release I had already banged laezel despite my lack of interest in the romance aspect of the game.
This makes that make way more sense.
Aaaw, but I liked getting jumped by everybody immediately. Made those charisma points feel earned.
I've been watching a friend play and absolutely noticed that the romance stuff is a lot slower. everyone wanted to jump my wizard bones about 18 hours in, though it's very easy to just not flirt with them. Meanwhile she's 28 hours in and Shadowheart (who was trying to get me in bed with her in the first 10 hours of my play through) still hasn't propositioned her.
Sexlexia
I am pretty sure gale is still bugged. You can gain approval from him several times in a single conversation and he isn't even present for it. Everyone else has to be in your party in order to gain approval but gale apparently sees all.
It's almost a funny character trait that he is a horny dude. In one conversation you talk about him needing friends and if you say that you can be his friend he immediately hits on you. Buddy, if you didn't hit on everyone all the time then maybe you had more friends.

Haynow, some critters respond well to that!
Seems better than Gandhi's nukes.
Yeah it felt like at that moment everyone was corrupted by Slaanesh. Was awkward just tryna forward my companion quests.
And here I thought I was just really good at character creation.
there goes my shot with the lizardwoman
Funny, because the only character I'm trying to bone doesn't have any romantic dialogue, despite max approval.
C'mon Karlach, do something!
If people liked it, it would have been a feature. 😉
I need more bugs..
Yeah, me too.
