I thought Astarion was hitting on me... Turns out he wanted to suck me off, just not in the way I was hoping.
My pansexual ass actually only had the scenes with Lae'zel and Wyll. Those were the only two that just happened on their own. The rest I've had to work at, and nobody likes me! 😭
Not all the companions are willing to accept a poly relationship, and if you lock in on one who isn't (like Wyll) everyone else backs off.
(Imagine my surprise when things got serious with Astarion in act 2 and Gale, who I'd never flirted with - I never even got that one scene that starts with the Mystra image - suddenly demanded I choose between them. Awkward.)
And Astarion is just hard to please in general if your character doesn't find chaos and a little death on the side fun.
I am currently wondering which companion(s) I can take into a particular optional encounter toward the beginning of act 3. Even the ones I've romanced don't have an option to ask. Unlikely to make any other friends on this dude given I am the Dark Urge and playing full evil. But... The Dark Urge should be able to satisfy this dark urge too.
Once you get the second romantic scene where you cana sk companions for a kiss, you are blocked for any other origin companion, although some don't mind sharing you with non origin ones like halsin.
I was monogamous with Shadowheart and it hurt having to tell literally everyone to put it back in their pants
Ugh, same! Personally I am cackling at all the queer relationships but good GAWD my companions be a horny bunch. At least Shadowheart likes to cuddle.
Lae'zel: Did you just let a kid get murdered. That's hot, let's bone right now.
Had me falling out of my chair cackling
Hopefully memes about bg3 are allowed
Are you at the Bard's college?
No, I'm at the mages guild in Winterhold.
Nope, just your average warlock
Well, I was thinking of getting the game but if it's horny I might pass, as I'm as a Sex indifferent Ace, and find pushing thay sort of content sours the taste (and not in the fun Toxic Waste Hazardously Sour Candy sorta way either)
Edit: spelling and a word
When is the Ultrakill-style mod releasing?
Do not give me the ability to start slam-storing or fist-parrying my way through Faerun
Isn't horny normal for every ttrpg/pnp?
Sexing companions in CRPGs isn't actually that old. The oldest one with any kind of sex I can recall is Fallout 2. And they're both basically joke scenes (you can get an std as a porn actor and be a submissive to a super mutant). But actually getting with companions started with KOTOR or Mass Effect 2 or around that time, anyway.
