Is clearly just a joke, in any other contest it would be funny. The problem is everything we hear about the game is related to sex to the point I wonder if the game offers anything else but disgusting sex fetishes.
As I mentioned in another comment, I think this was done on purpose by journalists, once the game turns out to be a success they will just claim that gay sex sells
I mean in this case, that ogress is a hambeast not a manbeast.
But yeah, the volume of gross out sex jokes is getting pretty far past the "silly goofy fun" zone into the "weird guy keeps half-joking about his sexual fantasies with his uncomfortable friends" zone
Reminds me of a D&D campaign that got the DM banned from the group, where every session inevitably devolved into "avoid tentacle rape".
I just got up to this part and yeah it was like a "wtf" moment but then quickly turned into a "Lol".
It does seems the journalists really did hype all the sex stuff. I'm only five hours in but so far this was the only explicitly sexual thing. The rest has really only been innuendo and that has pretty much only been confined to the flamboyant vampire.
Obviously this might all change as I get further in but so far it hasn't hurt the story.
That's exactly what I guessed. I played the beta and outside of something like a dream sequence at the start it had nothing sexual about it.
That ogre is wearing a bra.
I know, my comment was more about the journalists hyping sex stuff for the game instead of story, choices or DnD rules implementation rather then this specific scene.
It's decent for the 3rd in the series but still a downgrade from Divinity Original Sin 2.
It's dos 3 wearing a skinsuit of baldur's gate
Is the story in anyway connected to BG1,2? That saga ended with Throne of Bhaal and it was a good conclusion to the saga.
So far not yet. But I'm still only 5 hours in. Haven't even made it to Baldurs Gate yet.
Only the first game took place in Baldur's Gate, the second was set in and around Athkatla, so if you never actually end up there it won't be anything new.
