What a Time to Be Alive

No spoilers

Butch:

Oh my.....

Apparently, in BG3, you have to customize all parts of your character....ALL PARTS...if you get my meaning, because they "appear in the game."  The devs noted that the....parts...of a dragonborn "have to be different for obvious reasons." 

Femmy, they have armored lizard parts in this game.  

Let that sink in. 

Other than that, I got nothing.  As I was sitting down to play, I sold a playbill, so that had to be taken care of, and then I got tired and fell asleep. 

It's going to be one of those days, isn't it? 

Feminina:

Absolutely, since it wasn't my night to play and I also have nothing.

Other than a lengthy morning meeting.

Butch:

Sigh. 

Maybe something ridiculous will list on freecycle. 

Or you can share your thoughts on Dragonborn parts. 

Feminina:

See, Cyberpunk made a big deal about letting you customize parts, but then they never showed up so it felt kind of pointless. I guess BG3 learned from our complaints about that. 

Possibly. I'll believe it when I see it. I admit it's more promising, though.

Butch:

According to the hype, BG3, in typical irreverent Larian fashion, has, as something everyone can equip, underwear.  Armor, boots, rings, underwear.  It tracks.  Thus, they were wondering what would be there if you, well, unequipped the underwear.  They thought it would be silly if there was, like, burlap underwear under the underwear, so they went with the more.....realistic option. 

Feminina:

Oh man, I hope there's magic underwear you can find and equip. There were a couple of things like that in Divinity, I think, but if you took them off you had burlap underwear under them, which, sure, is silly.

If that means your carefully customized parts only show up 'in-game' on the inventory screen when you take off all your clothes, that's a bit of a cheat, but I'll allow it since it's more than anyone else will do. 

Butch:

Hey, considering you can equip....or unequip...all of your party members in a BG game....

Just saying. 

Yes, there is, they say, a lot of magic underwear. 

We're going to LOVE this game. 

Feminina:

You know someone's going to play through the entire game with a fully nude party just to prove it can be done. 

Possibly me. 

Nah, not me. I like magic gear too much. But I salute that person. 

Butch:

Oh, I have a feeling this game will end the careers of many a youtuber. 

Which makes it EVEN BETTER!!!!!!!!!

"What does this slider do?"  BANNED!

"What if I equip this instead..." BANNED!

"I get to strip an armored lizard!"  BAN- Uh, wait, people do that?  "It's Femmy dude."  Oh. BANNED! 

Feminina:

Oh, you know I don't have a YouTube channel. I can't screech nearly that continuously.

Butch:

You:  Hi! I finally want a youtube channel. 

Them: Can you screech?

You: Sure can!  I've been practicing!

Them:  Let's hear it. 

You:  LETSGO!!!!WHAT????DUDE!!!LETSGOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Them: Nicely done!  What experience do you have?

You: Best damn blog ever!  Play First, Talk Later!

Them:  Oh.....are you the one who.....undressed the lizards? 

You: ............perhaps? 

Them: We're closed.  Try twitch.  

Feminina:

Me: Look, if being interested only in humans is what it will take to get you to buy this full-size sedan with financing...wait, sorry, I was confusing myself with a car dealer.

Butch:

Hey, youtube is so into advertising that just might work.....

(Nice call back, by the way)

Ironically, my kid just got home and turned on youtube. 

I told him I didn't want to hear that shit, so he turned on anime. 

Checkmate, Meatball.  Checkmate. 

Feminina:

Nicely played, Meatball.

Now get out of here with that nonsense!

Butch:

He has an ipad.  He has a TV downstairs. 

And yet...here he is. 

I just remember spending most of my childhood trying to be alone, not with my parents. 

Of course, I have spent most of my adulthood trying to be alone. 

I see a pattern. 

Feminina:

Someday, your kids will be following their own children around trying to hang out with them, and those children will say "hey, can I go hang out in Grandpa's basement, not seeing or talking to him? It's how we show our love."

And you will feel seen.

Butch:

My yurt won't have a basement.  They're on their damn own. 

Feminina:

"Can I go hang out in the woods half a mile from Grandpa's yurt, not seeing or talking to him?"

Yes. Yes, you can.

Butch:

Yes.  THAT.  

All the THAT. 

We gotta play tonight.
