    Not pictured: Sarah and your character being the most obnoxiously affectionate couple

    Has anyone here ever walked up to their partner and just blurted out “can I tell you something? Waking up with you every day is like a dream come true” completely out of the blue? Cause that ain’t me

    This is of course after “flirting” with her for a while. Is outright saying “I love you” even flirting? And why did it take three separate instances of outright saying “I love you” for Sarah to get the hint that maybe my character has feelings for her?

    And while I’m ranting, why couldn’t I invite my parents to our wedding? We brought in her mom who she hasn’t seen in 20 years, but my parents literally live 5 minutes away from the lodge and I couldn’t invite them? “They don’t have a ship” I HAVE A SHIP

      The answer to your questions, and so many more, is: because it’s Starfield.

        Fr, I should have waited for starfield before playing bg3. I’ve become spoiled.

        Do not, my friends, become addicted to good writing. It will take hold of you, and you will resent its absence.

          I did the same as you. It’s a shame that we’ve had our standards lowered to the point where we feel like we’re being spoiled, if the game is presented without plot-gape.

            Agreed. The amount of reactivity is truly stunning as well. Even if the broad strokes don’t change much, it really helps the immersion when you get a voice line acknowledging the way you did or didn’t do something.

            Oh well, on the plus side update 3 is soon so I can do a durge + Minthara run.
