Yep. It did depend on the companion a bit, IIRC Shadowheart and Astarion's romances wouldn't be triggered unless the PC picked the flirty dialogue. But then there were some companions who would pursue the player. I hated how I couldn't just be Gale's Bro, and Halsin is just plain creepy.

So are we just going to keep posting this every month until society collapses and most of us die within 10-20 years?

I think the thing we're getting hung up on here is the language. Are these teenage edgelords really rebellious? Regrettably, I was one of those kids in high school, and so were most of my friends. I guess you could argue that we rebelling against the school and societies authority, but the reality was we were the biggest bunch of loser bullies in the school.

Unfortunately, few of them grew out of this phase, and now they're just the lamest group of adult men sharing edgy memes on discord.

Exactly this. I liked witcher 3 but I can never bring myself to replay it because of the time commitment. I replayed Witcher 2 a dozen times and its a tight 30 hours.

Ask me any other day and my answer will be different, just highlighting a few GOATs this tread is neglecting.

1: Raging Bull

2: Citizen Kane

3: Dr. Strangelove

Picard starts every day by broadcasting "Space.... The final frontier" to the crew

Well then.

When they come for you, remember to save a bullet for yourself.

Look, I've been DMing for going on 20 years, and I like to think most of my players have had a good time. D&D isn't about adhiring strictly to the rules, it's about forging an entertaining adventure with your group. 90% of the time, I use the numbers I roll, but sometimes fudging those die can serve to make the game more enjoyable.

Is a boss battle not quite packing the oomph I intended it to? Maybe give the baddie a few good licks in to keep the players on their toes. Has someone been having a really rough time with an encounter and seems frustrated? Maybe just ignore that crit I just rolled. As long as you're not killing players, there's no harm in fudging the dice every once in a while.

Iirc he hit that Uruk 2-3 times in the chest, probably the heart. That motherfucker just kept going and yeeted himself into the grate when his body was giving out.

I still enjoyed the first game but wasn't one of the lead devs on KCD a capital G Gamer? I remember some... interesting tweets from him. Was he booted or did he change his ways?

Edit: Derp, should have just read the article before commenting. Fascism eats its own yet again.

Man, I would be such an easy mark for Tar-Mairon to corrupt.

Is he? The two have many shared interest sure, and maybe he has some dirt on Musk. I feel like if Putin was the "grand puppet master" he's often made out to be then the war in Ukraine would be going much better for him. The article above seems to indicate that Putins influence has waned considerably since 2016.
