You can't kill Teifling children

[shivelybanetek]

I have owned BG 3 for about 3 months and am already getting impatient for the full release, ( I have no idea how you people who have owned BG 3 pre-release for a year or more deal with it ) anyways I tried killing some tieflings before the whole battle of the grove. They just kept walking around even with showing zero HP.. Ok I understand , its kinda like killing a dog or a cat, developers don't like it and I'm fine with that BUT how come you can kill Goblin children? There is a part in the game where you can. Why the unfairness ..

I think everything should be fair game, but should come with realistic consequences...

Foulbloods are no better than goblin scum in my book.

Yeah, when I saw Halsin slaughtering the goblin kids, I thought something's not quite right here.

Another playthrough, and yep, those children are too far gone alright.

Meanwhile, the tiefling kids can start a genocide if you let them.

What's Larian doing? Seems like they're trying to coax me into going all murder-hobo on all children.

[KeepCleaving]

Yeah this is a long time dilemma in games, if you should be able to kill children. I remember only 1 developer discussing it tho, and it was Fable's creator Peter Molyneiux (not looking up how to spell his last name proper lol).

Games need more dungeons full of hostile children.

Nothing to deal with. Bought. Played. Forgot about. Occasionally check forums to pass time.

Much approve of having the option to kill all kids (or none). Tried to kill the tiefling brat -Mol or something- repeatedly and was quite disappointed :(

Well you see, goblins aren't human so they get no rights. Tieflings are at least half-human, so they get half rights. It's pretty simple really.

[Rusted Metal]

Indeed i believe we should be able to kill children, especially considering Mol can try and get us killed by lying to the guards but we can't kill her.

Modders will undoubtedly make it possible but i would like proper official support that way out comes can happen due to killing children, if it's a mod obviously it isn't accounted for therefore you won't see any outcomes

I prefer a game that embraces darker themes.

lol. Good one.

[Levethix]

The game can be modded. So if it isn't possible on release you can make a mod that will let you do so.

show's the games racism in the game itself. kind of funny. how racism is a theme in the games themselves and they're also treated racist by the developers

Viva~Pinata is an excellent example of this.

Usually children can't be killed in games because of age rating. It's probably the only thing rating boards see as more evil than nudity and sex.

As for why goblin children can be killed probably has to do with them not being "human" enough.

bumping this for anyone who had a rumor of being a kiddy didler by MOL at the Grove and can't move more than a few feet without getting interrogated by guards and rolling a perfect 20 to not go to join or get attacked -

we need to get revenge on the little SHID
