If you found the companions in Baldur's Gate 3 to be a little too horny, well, it turns out that was due to a bug.

Relationships are a big part of the game's appeal, but there's no denying that companions come on a little too strong right from the off.

Speaking to TheGamer, game director Swen Vincke admitted that romances were bugged at the game's launch and have since been tweaked.

Yeah I just had a scene where wyll asked me to dance and I was ready to dunk on him with my skillz but instead they danced and make out and the game didn't even ask me if I wanted to

This is the classic mass effect dialogue option meme where you pick a mellow option and then the MC lashes out.

A: "No." B: "that's a great idea"

You pick a. Then: "Why would you ever suggest that idea, that's horrible, I want you out of my group!"

Okay I just spent a while watching some of their videos <.<; Thanks(?) for sharing... I think... 🤔

Ugh, I hate bad PC writing. It's bad enough when it's "I agree 100%," "I agree 100% and wanna s your d," and "You're the stupidest, ugliest, evilest piece of absolute crap I have ever seen in my life and I'd kill you myself if it wouldn't get your blood in the carpet" but then some games just insist on somehow making it non-obvious which is which >:|

You might have missed a lot of signals over the years if you didn't grok that his hips weren't lying.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean I wanted to be water brothers with him!

HAHA gross but I love all the John Carter stories, I'm going to read that book for the different take on mars.
