Which is fine, but it makes it uninteresting to me

Also, I really question a game whose designers specifically built a genitalia size option into the game.
Thatāsā¦ kind of creepy?

As a sidenote, I loved Wasteland 3. I love any game that is actively trying to corrupt me and turn me into a villain. That has been one of the only two "apocalypse game experience"s that made me genuinely understand how good people can turn bad in Mad Max wastelandsā¦
Plus! When you actually clean up Colorado and become the new law enforcement agency you get the full cop-RP experience bc everyone lowkey hates you

I thoroughly enjoyed both Pillars games on multiple playthroughs but just havenāt been able to get into Baldurās 3. Tyranny is a good one as well, as long as you donāt mind that youāre one of the bad guys and your associates are worse.

IIRC it really doesnāt effect anything ingame, so itās just a personal preference thing.

I really enjoyed Wasteland 3, but I got near the end and had to deal with some big boss that I couldnāt pass (itās been too long, I donāt remember what) and I tried over and over and finally gave up because there was also no real way for me to level up anymore or anything.

Doesnāt that make it creepier though? āWeāre going to make it so you can have a guy with a huge dingus if you want. Or a microscopic one. It has no effect on gameplay whatsoever, but weāve spent time and effort putting it into the game for you anyway.ā

Tyranny is great for multiple playthroughs as well because of all the different paths to completing the game. It also has my favorite magic management system of any of the wizard-y RPGs so if youāre into that sort of thing.

I mean, your character wears underwear as a default so it shouldnāt be noticeable unless you seek it out. I guess they wanted to give players plenty of choices.

Iām sorry, that also makes it creepy to me.
To be clear, Iām not talking about the players here. What Iām talking about is that someone in that company decided to spend money and time and effort on a pointless āfeatureā which enables you to change the size of your characterās junk and itās creepy.

I kinda understand the logic, but I think itās kind of appealing to the lowest common denominator or grossly, grossly over discussed in every single review Iāve penned through. Iām not even going to aim for the low hanging fruit (har har) here and claim itās for perverts. I donāt think thatās totally true (it just super helped the modding community).
There are a few universal gag tropes: the frustrated DM. The mage who shoots magic missiles at the darkness, and finally the character that rolls to seduce every encounter.
Congrats to that exactly one type of player, here is your game

Oh please nobody think im taking a moral highground; I nuked the NCR, Caesars Legion, and killed Mr House. I am not judging.

I let Raedric keep his wretched life and lynched his hobo brother out in the countryside and I kind of regret itā¦

Is this like the BIG-TRUCK thing? If you enhance your characters ājunkā youāre compensating?

Who knows? I seem to remember a game a long time ago (it might have even been a Tomb Raider game?) where it got out that there was a way to change a female characterās breast size. There was a big outcry.
I guess they avoided calls of sexism by making this āsizeā thing apply to both male and female genitalia in BG3, but itās still really freakinā creepy if you ask me.

This is a great example of what I was whining about from a company that I used to adore
