Baldur's Gate 3

Too much of NSFW content
Gosh, the game is brilliant. I feel vibes of original BG, Planescape Torment, Pool of Radiance and other beloved (and well-forgotten) games of my youth.

BUT... seriously, guys, WTF?!

Why is my epic RPG journey is full of porn, gore and violence for no ducking reason? I can disable some scenery and duck display, but I still feel that weird vibe: everyone duck each other here and there (even damn ogres and bears), human entrails are lying around at crossroads, a child eating mother's corpse etc.

I understand that old-school games were spicy sometimes, but what I see here is blatant speculation. I'm not a moralist, but I strongly want to disable that content because it disgusts me and spoils my RPG journey.

It silly: I tell my 13yo "hey dude the game I bought last week was probably the best RPG I played since 2000, but you shouldn't play it really because it may be... a traumatic experience".

If other people enjoy that content - fine, I'm not asking to spoil it for them. Just give shy nerds like me more settings to turn these things off.

Uhhh so this is a rated M for Mature game. If you have an issue with that, play a different game. The thing is this is probably the most realistic game I've seen in a long time. If you don't want to play a realistic RPG, then play the Sims.

Few things to note
- You can turn off nudity and such in the settings of the game.

- Most, if not all origin characters have a romance option tied to their quest-line. If you don't want to see any of it then i highly suggest not to go down those dialogue paths.

- as for any other "Porn" scenes, the only one i have come across after finishing my first play though is a bugbear railing an ogre.(which they stop immediately and you cant see anything, it's just a funny encounter) also this is the only time i have encountered sexual themes without having to navigate dialogue options which helps serve as a sort of consent for players, like you, who might not want to see such things.

- There really isn't much you can do about the blood and gore within the game. It was made to bring D&D to a more "physical" media platform. maybe once modding becomes stable with the full release and hotfixes, maybe then you can play it without being uncomfortable.

-Happy gaming

It's content for adults and in a specific manner. I truly cannot comprehend why there's a need to transform a good game into something akin to a Barbie Teletubbies experience.
There are plenty of games that have been adapted for children. Let your 13-year-old play those. And if it doesn't personally appeal to you, no one is forcing you to play it. Wanting to constantly change everything is really, really pitiful.

Thats why the game is rated as 18+. You would be bad parent if you would let your son play it.

I do agree that I didn't realize this game was so XXX focussed either, I thought it was more like 'romance' in the game. I am cool with XXX, I will go with the flow :)

Its not a game for kids.

In the character creator we can customize our genitals and in the prologue we can rip out someone's brain.

Clearly not something recommended for young folks.

The game was advertised as such so why does it come as a surprise?

I don't know what I did wrong but the only NSFW Content I saw was a Pg13 scene that implied a pity #$(* from the Frog Princess.

I think its a little overblown. Like hearing someone complaining about a Fredericks of Hollywood catalogue when you have a stack of Hustler mags (I was in the U.S. Navy in the 80s & 90s and someone actually did this. )

Sunshine you have no idea. I should have thrown one down and sent him into a catonic shock.

Did you even check the rating of the game? Its rated M. Which stands for mature audience and means its made for adults. The rating alone already implies to the buyer what content is in the game. If this game was made for teens, it would have been rated T.

Keep this game away from your kids, if you don't want them to get nightmares. It contains gore, sexual content, foul speech, and mature humor (that you are even struggling to get yourself, it seems).

And there are options to disable romance with companions via mods. A quick Google search helps.

I don´t understand your point, guys. I clearly know what the game rating is, so what?

You may enjoy some aspects of the game, I don't. I share MY feedback, and you come to this thread to express your *precious* opinion on my feedback. For what reason?

I am the player/customer and I share my feedback, in a hope devs/authors read it. You may disagree, but why in the world you tell me what's right and what's wrong? That's silly.

I want to play MY dnd game the way I like, not the way you tell me.

This game has bestiality in it and that's pretty messed up, and if you support that you need to get help.

Then don't play it at work then?

whining about how they just wanted to give feedback and then getting opinionated comments have you never used a form before that is literally how it works if you don't want feedback on your comment don't comment

Where?
I asked for a few more ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ settings, nothing more.
If you can't read, how do you write?)
