Not the only companion that explicitly has a bisexual past.

Leap of Faith fits that bill, and is even a completed story - a rarity when it comes to AVNs. It has some darker elements, but those have to do with the mental health issues one of the characters is dealing with (depression, primarily, but it’s also treated in a tactful way and everyone makes it okay to the end of the…

About the “steamiest” Starfield gets is when you sleep in a bed and your in-game spouse is your active companion...and sometimes they’ll say something a bit cheeky like “One of the nights we need to actually get some sleep when we go to bed” or some such.

So ignore it, and enjoy all the blood and dismemberment and stabbing and emotional manipulation and depictions of torture that are so clearly the natural order of things.

No one is using “they put hard work into making it” to try and shut down anyone criticizing the game for any reason.

Of course, they should listen to the likes of you, who treat things that aren’t sufficiently different for your tastes as being the result of the developers and artists and such being “lazy as hell.”

Yep, we got confirmation in in February of 2021 that Hardsuit Labs had been pulled from the project and that a new team was working on it.

The “consent be damned” implies that he ignores you when you say no.

Even when comparing games with similar structures, Starfield is amusingly light on dealing with combat encounter/areas in ways that aren’t “shoot everything that moves with deadly bullets.”

The funniest part about it, to me, is that what we saw in the showcase is the entire scene for that, and outside of the whole bear thing it’s tamer scene compared to quite a few others (both in visuals, and the situation itself).

The one I’d fully recommend right now is an AVN called Leap of Faith. It’s your typical AVN in overall design, and is mostly M/F, but is also just a positive vibes story overall.

My issue with the Karlach story is that they go big on dangling the “find the infernal iron to try and fix things so she won’t burn up if she stays in Faerun” carrot in front of the player.

I’ve been reading Kotaku for over a decade...possibly closer to fifteen years at this point. 

If only your comment was at all applicable even not counting BG3 articles, kid.

Not sure I at all buy the claim that it only really gets going when you complete the main quest...

There’s 18 articles so far today. Just two of them are about Baldur’s Gate 3, and of those only this one is on the topic of sex. You then have to go alllllll the way back to August 16th to find the most recent one before that on the topic (from any game), and that one is the article about speed-running to the first…

He also, even after taking great care of you, is willing to open up the relationship if that’s your jam.

Really well done atmosphere, solid soundtrack, absolutely undercooked game systems.

Pssst...
