I spent about 15 hours on this already, and luckily for me, I only ran into one major bug (froze but thankfully game autosaved a lot) and one light one (two enemies in one spot). We played online two people with two characters each and it was fun and worked great, we only controlled our own characters. Sounds like maybe it's more optimized for online than couch co-op, but who wants to buy two copies of the game if you don't have to?

Music is improved, couldn't play a lot of the first one because it kept making my partner pass out, too sleepy vibe. No issues like that here, soundtrack is nice.

I suppose it is really similar to the first, except the new taller models and stuff. The dead heroes thing seems new to and possibly neat, but I could be wrong. I see it more as a story sequel than a game sequel currently. I was happy buying it early, but for others, I'd probably recommend getting it on more of a sale.

I would say...this is cool for communication in general, but it doesn't seem to help at all with flirting. Even the comments seem kind of like how I feel after watching.

Sure, knowing is important, but how do you get to the knowing part? How do you understand that it even is flirting, how do you "get on the same wavelength"? How do you communicate subtly without being misunderstood? How can you be confident that your message was received, what are the signs?

Video is a good first note: consent in communication is key, but it doesn't really offer much more.

Finds it just as I say this...whoops https://github.com/Norbyte/bg3se I think this is it, if it works let me know and I'll edit my og reply to for future sake because yeah much nicer to get something from github than some random link.

Just got it from this link from the nexus comments so I don't know, I heard mention of script extender many places but didn't see any kind of link until that comment

I guess I was asking broadly because last I heard anything about it was shortly after release when there was so many missing compatibilities, lots of things broken and unfinished, and everyone was hands down saying don't touch it with a ten foot pole. It sounds like it has gotten a little better, enough for some people to be fine with it, but by the majority of the replies it sounds like it still isn't "done" or is never going to be. All your information was helpful and I haven't read elsewhere so thanks!

Unsure if I count, non binary but biological women and I have had this terribly bad for all my life

Oh and I think you need to have 3 or less people in the party when you make the size change. Not 100%, but I remember doing it so it may have been necessary.

I found this in the comments of the Party Limit Begone mod by the way.

It seemed all the mods for it wouldn't do what I wanted. Got it working with this https://www.mediafire.com/file/4o3imoykr1pfamf/bg3-console-release.zip/file (goes in bin).

Which gives you a console, and then typing these commands while in camp let me recruit more people.

SetMaxPartySizeOverride(6)

Osi.PROC_CheckPartyFull()

Replace 6 with preferred party size. I'm playing 2 player with my partner and now we each can take 2 people with each of us, which was my aim. Works great. Doesn't feel op, though we considered switching to tactician we ended up staying balanced. We still get plenty of close calls.

Crashed once so far, when doing a Gale thing and he wasn't #1 slot in my party, so when I reloaded I temp left my 2nd party member at camp and then reinvited them after the dialogue. So it seems you only have to do it once and the limit is saved, because I didn't have to put the code in again.

I've been having major issues with my 4k monitor so that's great to know.

Ah damn, if there's still a good chunk of games unsupported, its definitely not there yet

Can't deal with the complexity of linux for simple things but I do think it's far superior, just not for me. So yeah I should have said vs other windows
