I don't want to just say good because in the context of a beej that would sound like a comment on quality. "Good blow job" just sounds nice and less like a morally correct one.
I could have sworn it was just tav getting on top of her and then it fades to black. I was disappointed based on how everyone kept talking about sex scenes lol
I could have sworn I swept the leg or something but I can't remember. Maybe I still have a save file for it, hmm
Edit: tried it again, no blowie lol. Either there's a followup or it's one of the earlier scenes (which I apparently missed)
I had no idea I could recruit Minthara until after I killed her and looted her...underwear? WTF? Oh no.
I never saw her as anything more than an an evil minion. I feel like I missed out.
There's a way to keep her on a good playthrough, but it's like an "approved glitch" by Larian. When you're killing the 3 Goblin Leaders, knock her out instead, but be sure to not long rest before you kill the other 2 leaders. Next time you long rest her body should disappear, and she'll be back in the Moonrise Tower Prison, ready for rescuing and recruiting as a companion 😎
It's a glitch in the sense that on a good playthrough you aren't reallyyyy supposed to have her as a companion. If you want to have her as a companion, you go evil and sack the grove. Otherwise, you kill her
It's funny because if you recruit her, Halsin won't have a tent anymore. He just kind of hangs out on the edge of the map. Made me laugh to see him just sitting on the floor.
She does have a good redemption arc it feels like (being still on my first playthrough, playing good and having knocked her down and collected in moonrise)
She does, but you can tell Larian really didn’t expect you to have both her and Halsin from the way he just becomes sort of homeless and Thaniel hangs out with Minty
Are you sure it’s a glitch though? When I did it and walked into moonrise playing a spy there was a whole scene where she is in front of Kethric and that 1/2 orc lady and she’s sentenced to get reeducated(possibly not that) plus the goblins were there because I got that mace and teleported out of there without killing all the goblins. Then, you can go where she’s getting reeducated and tell the 2 that are doing it that you’ll take over and then free her.
Well. I knocked her out. Then saved her from being reeducated or something like that at moonrise and she joined my party to kill Kethric. She’s actually pretty anti absolute when she’s around the artifact. I believe it was right at the beginning of act 3. I can’t remember all she said she definitely wanted to hook up but I had turned her down because my tav is with Astarion. I did save and said yes. But, that night nothing happened. The same thing happened when I told Helsin yes. The first hook up didn’t happen until the next night.
This isn’t fully true. Just last week I knocked her out and rested and she was actually at her normal table completely naked 😂.
I had killed all the goblins though and rescued Halsin by this point so I don’t think she could have even tried to march on the grove.
Don’t worry too much, she’s typically meant for evil playthroughs and a substitute for Halsin if you go down that route. However, as people said there’s exploits to get around it.
My first playthrough I am in a relationship with Lae'zel because I saw her and was like "I can fix her" which makes sense because my bard is currently on a chaotic path to saving the world and only killing some innocent people. But next run. I'm burning the world and I shall quench my thirst in the loins on Minthy
The scene in which you she literally sits on your face and you eat her out occurs in the ruined chapel at the first camp and when she proposes fucking to you she mentions that all the slaughter of innocents got her horny
Unless you can eat her out again later in the game. I haven't seen her content past act 2 yet
Astarion’s. I was expecting a fade to black. So to see my Tav slammed against a tree with full butt and boob (minus the nipples) had me shook. Really hilarious looking back at lmfao.
The controversy with GTA was that video games were largely seen and marketed as a kids thing. Besides maybe live service MMOs, they were seen as kids toys. So of course it got pulled because everyone assumed only children were playing and being exposed to sex. Now of course the market has flipped and it’s demographics are considered adults with a very niche market for kids
GTA was pulled due to the existence of easily-accessible content which had not been rated by the ESRB or any country-specific bodies. Said content, due to the (still-present) prudish nature of society which views nudity and sex as more egregious than violence, could easily have changed the rating or even gotten it banned in certain regions.
BG3, on the other hand, had everything exposed - figuratively and literally.
Funny meme but also lmfao ya. Hot coffee mod WAS a thing. Jack Thompson, the lawyer who tried to sue the devs of grand theft auto for the hot coffee mod.
in 2006 fox ran a hit piece on mass effect for having a lesbian blue alien sex scene. Despite the fact that in context the asari arent women or men so its not technically lesbian. The backlash caused by this lead to congressional discussions on the topic, and ultimately bioware pulled jack's lesbian romance option from mass effect 2 because of it... despite her character seemingly being aggressively bi sexual.
I fucked a goth girl, cheated on her with a bear, then had a 4 some with two drow siblings and the goth girl, then had sex with a demon mommy, then had sex with another demons sex slave... all in a single playthrough of bg3. I even almost had weird alien sex with a tentacle monster on accident.
Small correction, the Asari are actually mono-gender, not agender. They are all considered women/female, so it would technically be a lesbian relationship.
Also, Jack doesn't just seem bisexual, she IS canonically bi. She mentions having girlfriends and boyfriends previously, which makes the lack of romance for female characters even weirder.
Ugh, I’m gonna be a pedant but this is actually really important when it comes to understanding free speech rights 🤓
BG3’s sex scenes aren’t interactive, which was the entire point of the criticism against “Hot Coffee”; not whether there is nudity or even a sex scene.
I get it’s a meme, but maybe I’m sensitive that the current American Supreme Court will actually *overturn* that ruling because the ESRB being allowed to self regulate *also* allows libraries to carry copies of “The Diary of Anne Frank” without being labeled as “pornography vendors”.
If there were dedicated button presses for grabbing Minthara’s hair while you get sloppy toppy then that would be the same category as San Andreas.
I knew the game had lots of romances but even I was caught off guard by Lae'Zel.
"I know we've camped twice. We haven't even had s'mores yet but I wanna jump your bones and lick you down...smell you all over...rahhhh..."
Almost 300 hours in and I have yet to trigger a sex scene. It astounds me that alot of people assume the game is inherently sexual, when in reality, unless you're TRYING for a s3x scene and really hitting in your companions, you wont see one...
Also, fuck, just realized that explains why I haven't seen a sex scene IRL, either...
There was a specific fear that violent video games, especially Grand Theft Auto, was causing everyone to become a violent generation of miscreants by encouraging them to accept hookers as ok and endorsing people killing cops. A major figure in this was former attorney Jack Thompson who would file friend of the court briefs in criminal cases to say that the crime only happened because the criminal played Doom or GTA, and/or listened to rap music. He was ultimately disbarred because he was improperly practicing law outside of Florida (where he was licensed), went out of his way to embarrass other parties, and lied to judges
Maybe times are changing in games to compensate for the lack of eroticism in movies. Hollywood essentially got rid of it in the last decade because they confused it with being sexist.
It is a pretty horny game isn’t it?
Ya there’s so many options when you choose tiefling!
What options? I didn't know race influenced something in that theme
The horns on their head.
OH
You sweet dirty little mind
For my defense I am stupid
Defendant’s argument is rock solid. Case dismissed.
One of the main reasons I romanced Wyll..... *Wink*
Don’t feel bad man, joke went right over my head too.
You know what else goes over your head? Horns. :)
Also thought you were going to say “My Mom!” There
*Mommy
Was hoping for “Minthara’s legs”.
Was thinking about editing to put (I’m a tiefling) after I commented actually.
Minthara… oh, right.
You woulda caught it if you woulda had horns :)
Mine too
I'd argue that dragonborn make up for lack of options with the sheer volume of each choice.
Do the horns get in the way of the face sitting?
Or dragonborn!
Larian knows its player base and spared no expense.
Literally everyone in the game is hot. I dare you to try to find someone that is ugly (other then the bartender).
Balthazar
Alright, you got me there
Okay hear me out…
Ethel.
Are we talking pre or post transformation?
Post, though I'm sure pre-transformation there's someone out there in this community who would see her as a grade A gilf
Wulbren
Pregnant Ethel
Male Gith'yanki. Meth head tweaker aesthetic if you like that sort of thing.
Laezel
False.
The most true. She looks like a toad and acts like a bitch
But like a hot toad. And like, hot bitchy
You've met Shart, right? Talking the Bitch category.
False. Have you ever even tried doing her companion missions.
This is the first game that made me yell: “get in here quickly, she’s blowing him!!”
Shoutout to Minthy being the only companion who gives you head
Halsin will also!
I like the idea that's why they were originally intended to be mutually exclusive. So you could have an evil gobbie or a lawful one.
thanks i'm literally sobbing
Throbbing*
*unzipping*
I don't know if I'd call Halsin lawful. Probably more Neutral Good than anything
I don't want to just say good because in the context of a beej that would sound like a comment on quality. "Good blow job" just sounds nice and less like a morally correct one.
A righteous blow job
Fair enough!
Bro goes chaotic good as a bear lol
Minthy is lawful evil
well yeah, shes a paladin. Gotta be lawful out the gate.
Gobbie noticed Kiwi spotted
Lawful being Minthara, RIGHT?!
Who...?
Did... did you never meet Halsin? How far are you?
No I do know him. He's my least favorite companion
archdruid of the emerald grove halsin
Honestly pretty out of character for a House Baenre
Has to be her kink. She does it for herself - not you.
Honestly, respect.
Lae'zel does if you get her to submit to you
oh dang? Well time to restart then. got 3 play through i gotta do still...
HUH?! I GOTTA DO IT
I don’t remember that part, are there multiple sex scenes?
It's the first one, you don't see much of it but it shows her going down there. But I might be misremembering lol
I could have sworn it was just tav getting on top of her and then it fades to black. I was disappointed based on how everyone kept talking about sex scenes lol
I think that's when you go along instead of having her submit. Lol the scenes are nice but some cut to black quicker than others lol
I could have sworn I swept the leg or something but I can't remember. Maybe I still have a save file for it, hmm Edit: tried it again, no blowie lol. Either there's a followup or it's one of the earlier scenes (which I apparently missed)
I think Karlach does too in act 3
Time to go Dark Side!
I had no idea I could recruit Minthara until after I killed her and looted her...underwear? WTF? Oh no. I never saw her as anything more than an an evil minion. I feel like I missed out.

Next time you long rest her body should disappear, and she'll be back in the Moonrise Tower Prison, ready for rescuing and recruiting as a companion 😎
Oh, I just killed the other 2 and knocked her out, I guess the other order makes it a glitch but if you leave her last it seems more reasonable.
It's a glitch in the sense that on a good playthrough you aren't reallyyyy supposed to have her as a companion. If you want to have her as a companion, you go evil and sack the grove. Otherwise, you kill her
It's funny because if you recruit her, Halsin won't have a tent anymore. He just kind of hangs out on the edge of the map. Made me laugh to see him just sitting on the floor.
It's even funnier because Thaniel doesn't move so he's basically hanging out with minthara
That cracked me up.
She does have a good redemption arc it feels like (being still on my first playthrough, playing good and having knocked her down and collected in moonrise)
She does, but you can tell Larian really didn’t expect you to have both her and Halsin from the way he just becomes sort of homeless and Thaniel hangs out with Minty

Then, you can go where she’s getting reeducated and tell the 2 that are doing it that you’ll take over and then free her.
Hm not sure how I did it this last time. But whatever it was I was able to get her in my party lol.
but no head if you go this route 😔 gotta commit genocide if you want minthy to give it up
Not true. When I got to the third act(maybe sooner) she was wanting to hook up and I played as more neutralish
I thought she only had a sex scene after the goblin party (where she literally gives head). You got it in act 3??
Well. I knocked her out. Then saved her from being reeducated or something like that at moonrise and she joined my party to kill Kethric. She’s actually pretty anti absolute when she’s around the artifact. I believe it was right at the beginning of act 3.

The same thing happened when I told Helsin yes. The first hook up didn’t happen until the next night.
This isn’t necessary any more. If you knock her out at any point she’ll disappear after a long rest and appear at Moonrise.
This isn’t fully true. Just last week I knocked her out and rested and she was actually at her normal table completely naked 😂. I had killed all the goblins though and rescued Halsin by this point so I don’t think she could have even tried to march on the grove.
The runs where I kill her someone always wears her clothes, everyone looks so good in them. Everyone.
Astarion in the spider armour is such a good look
I had the *exact* same experience my first play through hahaha. “Who tf is Minthara and why do I have her underwear… oh…”
Don’t worry too much, she’s typically meant for evil playthroughs and a substitute for Halsin if you go down that route. However, as people said there’s exploits to get around it.
Same
Few hours? Sex speedrun in [2mins](https://youtu.be/pYsQu3GjdME?si=rdO_gIL1XzD29aNE)
WE BANG
Is that footage sped up or does PC have a setting to move gameplay faster?
It’s PC and speedrunners exploit glitches to move faster or even completely break the game and “teleport”
*a hot Drow chick
I mean you can have a frog chick using you for cardio within a few minutes of starting the game Or uh so a friend told me
Lae’zel was actually patched to be less horny. Now it takes about five minutes.
Haha I was going to ask really?
No mention of the bear?
The squirrel cracked me up.
My first playthrough I am in a relationship with Lae'zel because I saw her and was like "I can fix her" which makes sense because my bard is currently on a chaotic path to saving the world and only killing some innocent people. But next run. I'm burning the world and I shall quench my thirst in the loins on Minthy
Pfft, this meme lies, there’s no way I could ever massacre refugees for a nosefull of drow taint
You don’t have to my friend. Just knock her ass out when killing the goblin leaders and she’s grateful in act 2
Yeah but to get her taint on ur face you gotta go to genocide city
I'd do more for her
No you don’t. I’m playing neutral and didn’t kill the grove and she wanted my tav pretty soon after I started act 3.
The scene in which you she literally sits on your face and you eat her out occurs in the ruined chapel at the first camp and when she proposes fucking to you she mentions that all the slaughter of innocents got her horny Unless you can eat her out again later in the game. I haven't seen her content past act 2 yet
Yeah. I’ll have to check with my noncommittal character lol
I turned off nudity in this game and thought I was safe. Let me tell you, I was still *scandalized* at the first romance scene I triggered, lmfao
Which one was it?
Astarion’s. I was expecting a fade to black. So to see my Tav slammed against a tree with full butt and boob (minus the nipples) had me shook. Really hilarious looking back at lmfao.

BG3, on the other hand, had everything exposed - figuratively and literally.
Also I think it's important that BG3 isn't really being sold "in stores", for the most part, a pales in comparison to a lot of stuff on Steam.
Funny meme but also lmfao ya. Hot coffee mod WAS a thing. Jack Thompson, the lawyer who tried to sue the devs of grand theft auto for the hot coffee mod.

I even almost had weird alien sex with a tentacle monster on accident.
If Fox understood back in 2006 that the character in question was actually non-binary, I don't think it would have made their piece any kinder.
Small correction, the Asari are actually mono-gender, not agender. They are all considered women/female, so it would technically be a lesbian relationship. Also, Jack doesn't just seem bisexual, she IS canonically bi. She mentions having girlfriends and boyfriends previously, which makes the lack of romance for female characters even weirder.
is... is this the good timeline?
Is this maybe an American vs European game issue?
Ugh, I’m gonna be a pedant but this is actually really important when it comes to understanding free speech rights 🤓 BG3’s sex scenes aren’t interactive, which was the entire point of the criticism against “Hot Coffee”; not whether there is nudity or even a sex scene.

A drow chick sitting on your face seems pretty tame compared to bestiality.
Unpopular opinion, BG3 lacks sex. I mean only one sex scene per character? Are you kidding me? Where are the mods
You can start with the ones on nexus and go from there...
Haha.
I knew the game had lots of romances but even I was caught off guard by Lae'Zel. "I know we've camped twice. We haven't even had s'mores yet but I wanna jump your bones and lick you down...smell you all over...rahhhh..."
And don’t forget you scent mixed with blood is turning me on
I was a gnome in my Durge playthrough and romanced minthara, watching her walk up to me on the changing table like I made a big boy stinky, killed me.
Progress
Changing for the better I see. Excellent.
You can do what
Indecency? In a GTA game? How could they!
And it's the best scene IMHO.
Correction: the game rewards you commiting genocide with a drow chick sitting on your face.
And all you gotta do is murder some refugees
been a while since I’ve heard / seen the term chick. it’s weird
And I did it too. And it was worth the killings.
GTA walked so we could run.
And wait until we talk about the bear 👀💀
Did the minthara thing on my second run. I dont remember this. I do remember her giving my guy a bj.
I can't remember San Andreas being pulled, it might have been in the USA.
Don't forget that Mass Effect 1 had Fox News calling the Xbox 360 the "SexBox"
Don’t forget you have to kill kids first😀
Almost 300 hours in and I have yet to trigger a sex scene. It astounds me that alot of people assume the game is inherently sexual, when in reality, unless you're TRYING for a s3x scene and really hitting in your companions, you wont see one... Also, fuck, just realized that explains why I haven't seen a sex scene IRL, either...
Idk you literally just have to let lae'zel bully one tiefling and she'll immediately "want to taste you"
Average redditor moment
This is the first I’ve heard you could have her sit on your face
Progress!
I feel like im playing a different bg3 lol
Was there less ratings before? Maybe sexual content warnings didn't exist back then, so people had somwhat the right to be surprised.
There was a specific fear that violent video games, especially Grand Theft Auto, was causing everyone to become a violent generation of miscreants by encouraging them to accept hookers as ok and endorsing people killing cops.

I don't think this is nearly as big a thing as you think it is
