I gotta be honest, I’m not interested in Baldur’s Gate. While I know that I’m being a petty little butthead, having everyone who knows I play DND (under duress, mostly) and Dragon Age recommend it makes me not want to engage with it out of spite. A couple of friends have assumed I am playing it for sursies and that has really steamed my beans.

I’d probably enjoy it! (Except for the puzzles. I don’t want puzzles) I’m just irrationally irritated because the only new gaming experience I want is wiping my memory to play Origins again.

I am hissing and spitting like a small feral kitten.

#I’ll probably play it eventually #but no one was talking about compelling storytelling #and I was seeing primarily stuff about the vampire elf #lumping him w Fenris and Zevran #and it just steams my beans!!!#it boils my cabbage!!!#ik the comparisons are obvious and I’m just being a hater #but it feels like booktok marketing!!!#I don’t even know what the plot is!!!!!!!!!#everyone talks about the tactics and how you can do a bunch of stuff and someone spent 100 hrs in act 1 #(which is also a con for me bc i don’t want too many options!!!! it gives me brain worms!!!)#ARE ANY OF THE CHARACTERS GOING TO EMOTIONALLY DESTROY ME LIKE ALISTAIR DYING FOR ME?!?!?!#I’m just being an old man #the real journal entry is in the tags #i know it’s an objectively well-made game and I’m glad people in my circles are enjoying themselves
