    Not sure if thats a parody of Gamers complaining about “ugly” women or if they are serious and also stupid on the same level

      Pretty sure that’s a parody, in response to where folks edit women in the same manner, like this shit: https://knowyourmeme.com/editorials/guides/what-is-the-hire-fans-lol-meme-the-viral-dei-copypasta-being-used-to-criticize-the-witcher-4-haters-explained

        Original Chuddish: “Hire fans lol”

        Translated to English: “I’ve never once seen a real woman from up close (they always run away and call me a freak)”

        Am I alone in finding the “fan” image for Ciri even more off-putting than the original one, even if Ciri was doing something where attractiveness was relevant? People who wear that much makeup end up in the uncanny valley for me.

          She looks weird and vacant, like a literal sex doll. But I suppose that’s what they want

    I actually thought this kind of degenerate nonsense was someone joking but today I saw a mod for Baldur’s Gate 3 to make Gortash “handsome,” so I’m obviously out of touch.

      Gortash actually is supposed to be younger and more attractive, according to the narrator at several points.

        my problem goes deeper than you might initially expect. i have made many many characters for this game. however, none of them have finished it

          I sympathise with you here, and I won’t urge you to finish it (because I know it’s not that simple), but I do hope that you are able to some day, because the ending of the game is one of the things that is dear to my heart in the game (I am curious at what the furthest you’ve gotten in it is). It’s not even that the ending is good — the reason I love it is because of how it hurts: it hurts because it means the game is finally over, and it also hurts because the characters in the game don’t get the closure of an ending. Disco Elysium actually feels tremendously hopeful to me, but it’s a weary, desperate kind of hope, because Revachol is sick and struggling; Martinaise, depressing shit hole that it is, reminds me of home — I say this with equal parts bitterness and affection. You would probably take away something different from the ending than I did, which is why I hope that you are able to experience it some day.

        yeah i have been having that problem too. i kept making new characters and reloading saves to see what would happen. i know it ends up making the experience worse but i just can’t help myself. i need to know. i also need to have all the fun stat boosting items and then i find myself optimizing the fun out of the game.

    A male protagonist should always look like he either just fucked a bear, or got fucked by a bear. The one on the left meets both of these criteria and is passable.

      Get up now, grab one from the dresser and tie a full Windsor, one try, no YouTube tutorials.

      See why the skill check?

      Harry is someone that already exists and has relationships in the world, usually those sorts or RPGs don’t let you customize much. It’s like Geralt or Link. But you do get to develop your personality more through dialogue.

      As for the tie skill check, the rest of the game is better about saving skill checks for more difficult tasks. It’s just there at the start to reinforce how much of a mess your character is. You can come back later when the negative modifiers clear and it’s easier.
