I just had to turn down a prancing Wyll. I tried to let him down easy, but he wasn’t getting the hint.

Is this what it’s like to be a woman? Dudes come prancing up to you out of nowhere like it’s their best move, then get bitchy when you don’t drop your pants for a two step?

I know I risk summoning the worst of the Internet with this question. I’m still curious if anyone’s experienced similar in the game. Maybe I’m way off thinking there’s some empathy lessons in here. It’s obviously not the message of the game, but maybe one of the messages.

    The game was much hornier at release. It’s been tamed down with the patches.

    I’ve watched dudes in real life be much more forward that than Gale.

    I had a friend tell someone “No one at this table is doing anything with your dick tonight. You are wasting your time here, move on” that was finally what got him to work on the next group. I swear she’s going to end up being punched in the face by someone.

    the tadpole must be applying pressure to the horniness-switch in everyone’s head, the Camp Horny Jail -experience can’t be explained otherwise.

    Gale ropes you into his weird romance if you just try to be nice. He’s the only one who actually skeeves me out.

    Wyll comes on strong, but I don’t feel like it’s weird per se, just him not getting the subtle hints.

    Astarion I love, and he reacts in such an Astarion way when you turn him down.

    If you reject Shadowheart, it’s like kicking a puppy.

    Rejecting Lae’zel is pretty easy, since she’s pretty upfront that she just wants to smash at first.

    Karlach is way too cool about being turned down for someone so hotheaded. I love her and her big, flaming, mechanical heart.

      The half ton of rothé hits on you no matter what too. Like the second conversation with him after he becomes a permanent companion he starts dropping hints in every conversation til you call him names.

    They had major bugs in the relationship system in earlier versions of BG3. Depending on which version you are on, or which version you started your current game in, you might be seeing those bugs at work.
