Polyamory / poly relationships?
Just curious if that was a thing in the game w/ any of the characters. I know probably not, the extra relationship complexity isn't something a lot of games are willing to tackle. But given the scale of this game, and how some races (eg. wood elves) are explicitly often poly, figured I'd ask. 'cause who knows, hope springs eternal and all that.

That at least leaves open hope, thank you :) (I'm waiting for release day to play it, prepurchased it but wanna get the full experience in the first blast - didn't know if folk had run across it in the early parts of the story)

You're always welcome to not engage in any kind of romance style that isn't for you, in games and in real life. For my part I hope the game includes the things you enjoy, in addition to the things others enjoy.

Its also not call of duty, its a roleplaying game. Relationships in Role Playing games are as much part of the core of RPGs as spending half the game in a tavern. You've been playing too much Diablo if you have an issue with that.

We have no clue, could lead to interesting situations we'll have to see.

People that get really invested in courtships/relationships in video games are so damn cringeworthy in my opinion. On the other hand, it's also incredibly sad to think that these people lack such social interactions in their lives that they feel that they can only find it in videogames. Log off and develop some interests that get you socialising irl.

I mean, here you are on a Steam forum. :steamhappy:
A related question, can you cheat on a character in BG3?

That might be a nice idea if you're ever faced with the idea of deciding whether or not to do something like this in real life, because when in doubt, I trust larian more for help than a forum on the internet. Anyone who writes such well thought-out dialogues usually thinks very hard about what they are writing 😁 I thought so too at doki-doki Club. but they all killed themselves so rather less suited for that kind of tricky decisions...

Lol bored and killing time at work is hardly the same as getting emotionally invested in videogame characters.

I'm not sure about this specifically, but the Larians have to work on all this. After all, the original BG is ahead of almost all modern RPGs in this regard

I'm not sure, but I am confident that Astarion would absolutely be 100% down.
