Opt of out hetero content

[xagon2014]

I have enjoyed the game so far but I have come to a point where an apparent female NPC has made sexual advances towards my male main character. Why does Larian push this kind of conservative agenda on me? It almost feels like they only pander to cisgender heterosexual people. Are they trying to score points with the church? I don't get it. Also, during character creation you can chose men with penises and women with vaginas. I don't hold a grudge against such people. I do have some hetero friends, in fact. But the devs should realize that not everybody necessarily wants them in their games. I say we need a patch, or least an option to remove all hetero content from the game.

Just like in real life you are free to just say no thank you to those aspects and invites which are not to your liking. Don't need a patch for that, just stand your own ground.

But, it's just a checkbox!

I cannot believe Arland responded to this like a serious post. It's satire.

Yh game is not gay enough. Including gay people means excluding straight people. Otherwise how would LGBT feel included of it isn't all about them?

Because its normal

I know what you mean. Like, I don't have a problem with straight people. Some of my best friends are straight. But I just don't like to see it, you know? And I wouldn't want children to be exposed to that sort of lifestyle.

Can I opt out of romance in general? So I can play the Sigma male lifestyle and be Kenough?

[Deskath]

Id like if Larian added a psych evaluation test in the character creation, so only normal and stable people would play the game. It would spare mods time to shuffle threads like this -_-

[Selliato]

Yeah to be sure I kill every NPC that want heterosexual romance.
Not that unnatural nonsense on my watch.

Maybe the game isn't made for you. Try Diablo 4.

"After the 2 GB patch implementing the psych evaluation test, BG3 went from 850.000 concurrent players to 0 in less than a day"

Exactly. A normal relationship is between a man and a man or between a woman and a woman.

So you're saying 95% of the people in the world are conservative? I think you need to stop playing games and take a look at the real world before complaining. Of course, I know you're just trolling, but at least try to put some effort into it.

I don't care one way or another if a game wants to incorporate gay characters. However, it destroys my immersion to have every single fricking one of them ready to swing any way they need to for your main. I'd like to see character romance be something you can toggle off, because having everybody in the party hit on you at the drop of a hat is cringy and just so massively ridiculous it completely ruins the flow of the game. I don't even want to talk to NPCs because its like a bad romance novel. Hell, most of the porn games require more work to get into someone's pants, and have better dialogue on the way there, which is pretty sad given that their writing is horrible.

Yup, and yet they still try to rub it in our faces, smh. We get that you're straight, do you have to be so loud about it?
