well to be fair BG2 was not done by modern Bioware

Meanwhile, in Japanese ((((games))))

>WRPGs
Are you somehow implying there are good ones in jrpgs or just complaining about the quality of romantic subplots in RPGs in general? It better not be the former, user.

Viconia good>Jaheira>Viconia evil>Aerie

Kinda agree, but I chose Aerie first on my first playthrough.

same but i think it was because i was 12

Does Kingmaker have romance?
Is it okay?
Want to play it. Hopefully it goes on sell soon.

there is romance the thiefing are ok i did not tried the rest

Yup, and thirsty of blondes my man.
Glad the taste ages like wine.

Aerie is the kinda girl that acts all innocent, but you know she sucks mad dick on the low

>if we live I'm going to empty your balls on a daily basis

what did she mean by this?

I'm sorry but I think that user meant that Aerie is a basic bitch choice that only a 12 year old would seriously consider

yeah she looks like my crush from middle school
>Wait until this evening,and you'll see that I'm anything but innocent!

I was 11 on my first playthrough

Anyone have the really good Pillars of Eternity 2 romances?

Never seen a game handle a main romance plot well, let alone multiple subplots. I just try my best to avoid them now.

The romance subplots in BG2 were an incredibly minor bit of side content. They were just an amusing little aside that were there more for novelty purposes or getting a little more XP. The problem is the novelty resonated so strongly with players that when they talked about the game that was all they fucking talked about. Most of the game's word of mouth dedicated to "Wow dude you can fuck the elf chick" or whatever.

Come modern WRPGs who profess to "trying to recapture the magic of BG2" and they make the romance shit the front and center biggest selling point. It's splattered all over the marketing, eats up all the development time, and probably has stupid mechanics and convoluted bullshit to go along with it. Then people play these games and are confused "huh... why isn't this like muh BG2?" But they never fucking learn do they?

As much as everyone loves to hate virgins, ability to write romance is not relevant to having sex.
Shitty writing does not improve by life experience.

Actually many of them have. The problem is that the people they fuck are as equally insane and stupid as themselves.

Very interesting

Looks good.

You deserve it for being a faggot not romancing Viconia, the only non-shitty BG waifu.

jaheira a qt

>Multiple heroines
>First girl is canon
she is is shit

>when they talked about the game that was all they fucking talked about
Do you come from some extremely autistic alternate reality?

they are all shit with not good ending every companion do have like two dialogues .. i honestly do not understand why they even bothered? the only thing i liked about the game was ost otherwise the combat was easy so even monkey would be abble to play it

it is true in some cases, I remember some threads on Yea Forums where people only talked about waifus

have sex

It's pretty much a Bioware thing only

IRL romance is dogshit so maybe it's for the better

I never played 2 i only played the first one. It was honestly just okay. I'm not sure if it is because it was my first crpg but it just didn't enthrall me. I finished it but i never got into the story.
Gameplay was okay.
Maybe I'll try Divinity Original sin 2 or Kingmaker.

kino, japan does it again

both Divinity and Kingmaker are better in my opinion i really wanted to like POE 2 as i find the setting interesting but it was big let down for me

>>Op subplots on Yea Forums
CRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINGEEEEEEEEE

How so?

the writing is mediocre at best the main story is really short companions are shallow and combat is really easy with no challenge at all
now it was not all that bad for example i liked the setting and atmosphere + i really liked the ost overall it was just ok but definetly not something i would want to replay
