The medic held his jugular shut with his fingers. Clint said about skating off the ice, "My mom was watching, and I didn't want her to see me die."

Cute, thanks

I didn't get that vibe from you. I was just saying that thinking about it too rigorously just makes being an ally more difficult than it needs to be.

I'll bite. Show me the Old Testament RPG where a dead mother figure is standing in a coffin in an assassin cult, and I'll concede. Here's your chance.

Prompt?

Not my pig, not my farm. Imma let the queers be queer and just try my best.

I thought you said the only thing that influenced BG3 was BG1 and BG2. Now I have to read books?

Those are things in both games, numb nuts.

Or what about the mother figure in the dark cult of assassins?

You admitted that you don't have a point. Lol. I'm going to go play a rogue/fighter/wizard and fight dragons and have my choices impact the outcome and be a dragonborn and have mods.

Why is BG3 not BioWare if it evolved on its own merits? You don't even have a point you're trying to make. You just want to tell me that I'm wrong. In order for me to be wrong, one of the most influential games ever would have to have zero influence on the development, funding, or reception of Baldur's Gate 3. You don't have any argument because I literally can't be wrong about it.

• If Larian tried to make a game that wasn't Skyrim, it's still a positive impact that Skyrim had.
• If Larian wanted to make one of the best RPGs, then they'd have to make it better than Skyrim. Net impact, good.
• If Larian wanted to make a business case for why they deserved $100M to develop, then they pointed to the success that Skyrim had as validation.

If you think that no one in the 6 years of development compared the game to Skyrim in any way whatsoever or any game inspired by Skyrim, then you have an opinion so dumb that it's not worth talking to you.

I believe so, but I am not an expert. I just know about synonyms for lesbians (lesbonyms if you will)

Skyrim is a triple A RPG. I haven't made one change to my argument. My argument is not even my argument. It's the "Standing on the shoulders of giants" metaphor. If you like what you see today, then you have to give credit to the works that impacted the current environment.
