Collapsed for length!

Re: Transcript by OP

so I restarted Baldur's Gate 3 recently after playing it some years ago but never finishing

and the way that companions and romances are written is hugely off-putting to me. I HATE that the path to a relationship has to be 'hook up/fuck them in Act 1 BEFORE any actual backstory or character building happens, THEN you actually date or get to know them in Act 2'.

it's so incredibly awkward I cannot stand it. I'm fine with SOME characters doing this as part of character writing (that makes sense! different people place different value or importance on fucking, sex should be nbd to some people and a huge thing for others), but to have LITERALLY EVERY COMPANION, people who are SUPPOSEDLY from different backgrounds and cultures (including literal space aliens) find my extremely milquetoast character hugely fuckable within like days of meeting them is just a total immersion breaker.

I actually think worse of people who like this as a roleplaying game or think the character writing is good.

I'm ambivalent when it comes to remakes of movies or TV shows, but I will always support remakes of video games.

They're a media that was 100% constrained by the technology and the storage format of their time, and there's nothing that's more of a bummer than reading interviews with video game devs talking about things they wanted to put into a particular game but quite literally couldn't either because it wasn't possible with the technology they had at the time or they couldn't fit it onto the disc.

If a remake means they get to make the game according to their original vision for it? Worth it.

I don't care if it make me a "bad" fan, or a bad person. I simply have no interest in Wakanda and its related shenanigans in Marvel's Cinematic Universe, and you cannot make me care.

I prefer games with an endless mode, or at least a newgame+.

If the game runs its length and just... ends, I always end up putting off finishing it.

It's been more than twenty years and this is still one of the best father/daughter relationships I've ever seen. The older I get, the more sad realizations I have about my own parents, especially my dad. It's become the hardest part of rewatching this show. I will never have a parent who loves and supports me like this. It's hard to explain to other people why a teenage girl detective show is making me cry so much.

There's a recc'er who has been going for over 20 years, posting a multi-fandom rec list every month. I absolutely love their taste, we share most fandoms, the ones we don't they tend to convince me to join - they are the Gardner Dozois of fanfic for me.

But last month most of the entries on the rec list were for Heated Rivalry. I'm glad they've found a new fandom, and they owe me NOTHING, but still...

Ew indeed

...link?

Yep! It's fun to enjoy the new gameplay and fanworks and they don't change the story a lot (unless it's FFVIIR which is more compislop but they called it a remake to sell)

So the secret is you’re bitter they like something you don’t? Or you’re bitter they recced stuff in the current popular fandom? Something else? You cut the secret off right when you got to the secret part.

I'm pretty sure I know exactly who you're referring to... and I had exactly the same reaction.

Who's trying to make you?
