But...they are inverted by default? 

She still has a long way of development to go at that point. I don’t think that she’ll go the whole way without romancing her, but even as a friend her more grating characteristics smooth out plenty if you stick with her. 

But I have a hard time seeing Lae’zel as breaking out of her superiority and aggression complex.

They all start out as they do for a reason. There’s a lot of character development to be had, and a lot of reasons that make their behaviour understandable. 

I sincerely hope that Larian will dabble with the Planescape setting at some point. They could even make it a semi-sequel to BG3, featuring some familiar characters in support roles. Of course they’d have to decide a “canon” ending for BG3 to do that sensibly... 

Even then, a lot of BG3 players have complained that the Tav voice options don’t reflect the personality they wanted to have, for instance no gruff voices for Dwarves or Half-Orcs. 

The engine being stretched to its limits is a big reason why Cyberpunk 2077 had so many issues. And running an in-house engine is a massive investment of resources for the still relatively small studio. I was amazed that they decided to make one even back in The Witcher 2 days, let alone that they managed to keep it…

Although Miles takes Hobie for a rival at start, it’s pretty clear from Gwen’s point of view that she’s had no other romantic interests. 

And trolling is trolling. Sorry for mistaking your for someone genuinely ignorant and trying to help. 

If a game is competitive, then hacking is bad. If it’s a single player game then you aren’t damaging anyone else’s enjoyment with your mods. And this game has been made mod-friendly because the devs like fans who create their own content and increase the game’s lifespan. 

If there’s no percentage for the chance of hitting shown, you’re not targeting a character. You an alternatively click on the enemy portraits in the top of the screen if the camera angle makes it too much of a pain to click on the character itself. Though the tactical view (toggled by pressing O) also helps. 

The weapon definitely blinds undead enemies but I could swear it did nothing to stop the Shadow Curse on my playthrough. I mostly have it on Shadowheart but I did switch it to my Tav out of curiosity for a bit and it didn’t seem to double as a torch as far as the Curse was concerned.

I’ve been told players who used the heterochromia option in the character creator and then let Volo go poking around in their eye socket no longer had two distinct eye colors after the bard was done messing around in there.

Does it? I didn’t actually notice the Blood of Lathandrel doing anything. Shadowheart has natural immunity, though.

Yes, I am aware, nothing what you say contradicst my post. Though pre-Christian elements in the Arthurian mythos actually increased over the centuries, as people found the exotic and fascinating.

The framing device itself wasn’t the problem. The problem was that it didn’t end up tying satisfyingly to the main narrative and didn’t have any sort of conclusion of its own. The ending was incredibly haphazard when it came to tying into the the situation of the framing device and there isn’t even an epilogue of old…

While I’d love to see more of Nimona, I can’t imagine any storyline other than figuring out Nimona’s own backstory, and I think that should be left purely in the realm of conjecture. 

The book is set in the late 5th or early 6th century, since St. Samson is a character (and not much of a saint). The familiar Arthurian characters and their Norman names are a visible anachronism which Cornwell freely admits, but overall the book tried to portray the post-Roman Britain accurately at least in the first…

It would have been fine if it had contributed something to the ending, a some sort of satisfying conclusion for the elderly Derfel storyline. Instead the ending didn’t even return to the framing device and gave very little justification for how that situation even came to pass in the first place. 

Hey, WTF, why didn’t I hear a word of this show coming out before this? I read the books ages ago and the first two of the trilogy are excellent. A pity that the quality dips a fair bit in the last one, but overall the books are still an excellent read. I hope that the show manages to live up to the source material.
