What's the verdict?
Buggy, buy it after patches
Beamdog tormenting grognards with gender identity and single mom stories

I was hoping codex would talk about the game itself rather than one tranny in the corner of the map but I guess that shows how new I am.
>>332846518
I didn't buy it and the patch fucked my BG:EE in the ass
the UI is fucking ugly
missing text in dialogues and menus
random EXP bugs
random crashes
holy shit

As a tranny, it pisses me off that there isn't an option to be rude to the trans character or call them out on special snowflakeness. Trannies in the middle ages were treated just as shittily as they are now, seems unrealistic as fuck
>>332848513
>as a tranny
here we go
>>332848513
Well there's literally a belt of sex changing in Baldur's Gate and homosexuality in the middle ages and antiquity are very different from modern times. At least you can kill xer without a rep penalty
It's pretty good. Also that tranny in the corner, that single screenshot is kinda dishonest. You talk to her/him/whatever and at first she talks about Tempus, you can ask about the weird name, Tempus or if she's selling stuff. If you ask about the name you get the story... it's really fucking nothing.
I didn't even notice the fucking guard standing off in the corner until the autists at Codex sperged out about it.
The game is actually pretty fucking good.

Are you using mods? The new patch broke mods which is why your dialogue is fucked.
>>332849321
none
I got the missing text when starting a new game (wanted to try the shaman)
the exp bug is in my barely 3 day old save file
Fuck I've been trying to finish the trilogy for over a fucking decade but just can't commit. Barely finished the first game and expansion a couple years ago.

It's like you're really playing a Bioware/Obsidian game

You'll really like the second game it's a big step up.
Are there lots of opportunities to be a prick in SoD? I heard you couldget the big baddie to join your partyor something like that
>>332849232
Any complaints?
>>332852928
Just some weirdness with the interface sometimes. The voice acting is pretty good, battles are fun. The Advanced AI seems to be turned on by default on everyone, including yourself. It's an easy fix for those who like total control but can be annoying to deal with. It also seems a bit unoptimized as it can cause some load lag when everyone in a battle is loading the AI at the start. Not much, but it's there.
Overall so far it's pretty fun and the dialogue/writing is actually not bad. I just met the Shining Lady and had an interesting conversation but I won't go into more here.

Should I nab the EE for 5 bucks?
>>332854145
There's no reason not to anymore.
Is there anyway to turn off that black outline on everything? I am enjoying the new Health bars and map systems and the UI isn't the worst but damn is that black outline on characters annoying.
>>332854379
Does the EE support unfinished business?
>>332854492
I know you can turn off the black outlines and the journal notifications.
>>332854145
gog has it and the 2nd one for $3
>>332854787
Might as well buy it then even if it's bugged to shit.
>>332854783
It did before the 2.0 patch and I haven't tried to install it yet. It might be okay, but I can't really test it as I got SoD on Steam and they did some weirdness with how it installs on Steam so most mods are broke for Steam users right now until the next version of WeiDU.
>>332855715
Codex approved mod that lets you verbally bully trannies when?
>>332856304
can kill and take his shit with no rep loss
>>332857673
Are the new party members any good? Is the single mother cute?
>>332858591
She's kinda bitchy. It's funny watching her yell at all the refugees clogging Baldur's Gate though.
>>332859505
Bitchy in a BG2 Jaheira way?can you cuck khalid?
>>332859968
Kinda got that feel from her but I'm not that far into it, she only now joined my party. In the first part, when you're in Baldur's Gate she simply follows you around while you gather a party to do stuff.
