Baldur's Gate 3 is 'romance for games 101,' former Dragon Age writer says - eviltoast

Love and romance have become an integral part of Baldur’s Gate 3, but former Dragon Age and BG2 writer David Gaider says BG3’s romance is “too overt.”

    Everyone in this game was mad horny for me from the get go. Yes, I know it was a bug, but that was the game we’ve had for the majority of release right now, and the version of things most players experienced. Give it a month and another play through, and maybe we can talk, but so far, this game’s version of “romance” is just overt horniness.

      It was really weird having people in my camp I never talk to or have in my party fawning over me. Just started my second run so we’ll see how different it is without the bug

        Oh for sure. Curious to see if there’s a more nuanced progression in future runs. Definitely felt strange having multiple people trying to hop bones in early game, especially playing as a Dragonborn who’s been fairly stoic.
