Baldur's Gate 3 Character Customization options (male/female & anything in-between)

CG writes: With Larian’s game offering characters based on real people, the options compared to some other RPGs are quite limited. However, there are quite a few options to tinker with, so if you’re desiring a non-binary female looking character complete with beard and mustache then knock yourselves out.

There is nothing in between.

Daeloki264d ago

Imagine being upset by a feature that nobody is forcing you to use. A feature that is based on something that is real, but will in no way actually impact yourself. And you could have easily just scrolled past and keep your bigotry to yourself.

Becuzisaid264d ago

Imagine being so angered by the truth.

It's best to not feed the wildlife.

anast263d ago (Edited 263d ago )

The character creation looks insane. I haven't decided the Tiefling, Drow or Orc.

Daeloki263d ago

Agreed it looks amazing! Hopefully they'll add more playable races along the way too. And it's a great tool for making character art if you're playing DnD too!

As for feeding the wildfire, I know, but sometimes it's good to at least call it out for what it is :)

I am more into VTM TTRPG, but I have been thinking about getting into some DnD 5e.

I agree. I think I would have done the same. xD

Daeloki263d ago

"I am more into VTM TTRPG, but I have been thinking about getting into some DnD 5e."

It's the other way around for me, I've been wanting to get into VTM but my friends (and me admittedly) are more DnD oriented, although we do play the occasional Call of Cthulhu or Deadlands to keep things fresh.

Fascinating
If anyone is interested, I will never beat X-COM on the hardest difficulty

Michiel198912d ago

I can't really remember if I tried xcom 1 on the hardest difficulty but I gave xcom 2 on the hardest difficulty and ironman plenty of shots and it just seemed impossible. I don't often give up, but that game beat me.

anast12d ago

No real examples on why honor mode was too difficult. What I mean by this is there was no mention of the builds and gear he/she was using or classes and races.

Nittdarko12d ago

I mean I understand, after 14 attempts (non cheese) me and 2 friends finally beat it, It's really not for your everyday party adventurers

Don't get me wrong, a casual player could easily google (BG3 cheese builds) and Moon druid or Tavern brawler their way to victory with some ease, but going in playing it blind or telling yourself not to break the game and play normally is never going to end well at all.

Funny as well because Divinity Original Sin 2's honor mode was a fraction of the difficulty of BG3.

Popsicle12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

I won’t either. I am a dirty save scummer who definitely lacks honor on my dice rolls and checks. Not turning TAV into a squid just because I wanted a few parasites burrowed into his brain. Lol

Even Though Larian Is Done With Baldur's Gate 3, I Believe The Game Deserves DLC

Danish from eXputer: "DLC for Baldur's Gate 3 could resolve some unanswered questions and offer more sought-after content for what is otherwise one of the greatest RPGs in recent memory."

Leeroyw16d ago

They made their point on DLC. Respect that.

FACTUAL evidence16d ago

See this is what damn near killed gaming in the first place, DLC! I respect a good game that’s already heavily content driven. Whatever happened to having a good game, playing it from start to finish, and then enjoying it for what it was and waiting for a sequel with a whole new outlook? I hate the fact that there are people out there willing to get nickeled and dimed by developers then complain about how we get pelted with unnecessary dlc.

I feel more devs need to do what they are doing. Tbh, I couldn’t care less if dlc was gone completely. I could go as far as saying dlc ruins game preservation as well. Not going to go too deep into that but basically Baldur’s Gate devs gets my thumb of approval.
