"Reportedly" ? How hard would it be to verify this claim ? Now that's some investigative journalism !

[–] Swarfega@lemm.ee 49 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Daily Mail is a trash newspaper in the UK. It should completely be ignored as being factual.

[–] Pregnenolone@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

It’s a trash newspaper everywhere

[–] Hyperreality@kbin.social 34 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

They went blind while researching the game, so were unable to verify it definitively.

Is it because female body types in this game are smaller than males but the penis size remains the same, so they only appear larger?

[–] Primarily0617@kbin.social 60 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

on the feminine body models they get measured in girl inches

[–] Cybersteel@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Yes. A fat person penis will look smaller despite being the same size as another who is normal.

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 years ago

Or is it because the devs are (secretly?) huge fans of futa?

[–] GreenMario@lemm.ee 63 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lol can't handle the tiefling barbarian Futa cock, huh? Pathetic.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 years ago

Whoa. I thought you just described my lady, but she’s a futa Tiefling Druid.

[–] FrankTheHealer@lemmy.world 55 points 2 years ago

I hate that I can't tell if this is a real headline.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 54 points 2 years ago

Republicans always roll 1 on perception checks.

[–] Madbrad200@lemmy.world 44 points 2 years ago

It's genuinely hilarious that I wasn't sure if this was a real headline or not. It really does seem like the type of shit they'd write

[–] ArmokGoB@lemmy.world 38 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Can't play this game soon enough.

[–] xpinchx@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

It's really good.

TIL you can hang dong in Baldur's Gate 3.

[–] BloodyFable@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago

There's 5 different types of dong to hang

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (3 children)

To be fair, there are only two female genital options in BG3. Both called "vulva", and the only difference is one has public hair while the other does not. If it were even remotely "woke", not only would the options be more than "innies", but they'd be more representative of realistic variance. /my2¢

[–] rambaroo@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I honestly wish game devs would put their effort somewhere else. I hardly ever see my character naked. Having genital options just feels like a sales gimmick for teenagers

Hey game dev, hope you're okay missing your son's first steps coz we're busy crunching out those vulva options for our fantasy rpg.

Baldurs Gate, you had my curiosity ... but now you have my attention.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

DailyMail get don't mad about optional shit in a video game challenge (IMPOSSIBLE). Seriously, I turned the nudity off. Its one of the first things it asks you about.

[–] chetradley@lemm.ee 29 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The image appears to be faked using Daily Mail's actual review of the game.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Foiled again, nobody is immune to propoganda. Thank you, insightful lemming for stemming the tide of disinformation.

DeathSantis bans Baldur’s Gate 3 in Florida

[–] Roundcat@kbin.social 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This reads like a parody article.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 years ago

The headline is made up, but it's impossible to tell whether it's a joke or designed to manufacture outrage.

[–] platysalty@kbin.social 15 points 2 years ago

If you've messed around with Skyrim, uh, mods, you'll know that these sizes bug out all the time. Probably less about being woke and more "I put 5 as a value for penis size, but 5 means different things in the male and female models"

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (3 children)

How and why did someone even figure this out?

[–] Overzeetop@sopuli.xyz 20 points 2 years ago

I guarantee they were “thinking of the children” while fondling their character’s options.

[–] Borkingheck@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It has been well known for a while that BG allows modification to genitalia. It isn't woke bashing enough to say, BG allows someone to make a trans character. Their base doesn't give a fuck about someone playing a computer game but add in the extra feminist shtick about larger penis size and boy howdy, that's some wedge issue cultural war bullshit to flog clicks.

[–] Hyperreality@kbin.social 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's some wedge issue culture war bullshit that'll ultimately help sell more copies of Baldur's Gate.

[–] orbitz@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think it's awesome that we can create characters from marginalized people in current society, when people get used to something it becomes normal and accepted. It's a good thing, not some wedge issue. We need to be more accepting of people that do nothing but be themselves as long as it's not trying to push down others.

Speaking only for myself, I made sure to look at all the races naked when creating my character.

Does the Dragonborn have an option for a cloaca?

I literally see comments in steam discussions about random games with the title "is this game woke?"

Fucking propaganda man... It's so annoying.

Tell me you're a brainwashed Reich wing media consumer without telling me you're a brainwashed Reich wing media consumer. I just roll my eyes and move on.

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 8 points 2 years ago

Seriously. And they have the gall to call US the snowflakes. Choke on my half-orc girl cock, losers.
