Although, I thought I was on the right track to progress the game, I ended it accidently. So I'm wondering if I missed some que at some point, or made the wrong decision. I honestly don't know. I mean, I don't think I made it through Act II. So, without spoiling anything, I'd just like to warn my fellow players, that everyone saying there are thousands of possible endings, might indeed be true.

So, think hard about choices made. The ending I received was very... anti-climatic. I didn't want to reload and backtrack, or make different choices. So I started anew. Pay attention to your companions, even if they're obnoxious, and overly horny.

I think this is the most RPG game in the history of RPGs....

Yeah, this is just plainly untrue. All it takes is getting their approval anywhere beyond medium (for some even that's not required) and doing their specific personal quest objectives and they are down to fuck IMMEDIATELY. Ironically in my playthrough, despite not once giving them any signals I'm down, the only companion who didn't try to bone down with me was Karlach, the most openly horny one.

I think much of this stuff is still a little bit broken. I barely began a 3rd run through after finishing twice, and those two other times I only got easy, random sex with Lae'zel for my masculinity and Wyll because... IDK. I barely even talked to that dude and suddenly I catch him dancing and he wants to bang.

The people I want to fuck don't give me the time of day, and their approval was maxed out. In the carnival, there's a thing that you can use to find out how close a companion feels about you. I took gale and he was apparently down to clown, but I never actually got any options that led to an encounter.

Plus, between the first two runs, what scenes played and when were totally different. Even without changing much about how I chose things or the order I did them, even minor things like when Gale decides to eat a magic item or when Lae'zel and Shadowhart would argue happened seemingly at random.

At this point, I believe both sides of the horniess argument are true. Some people got stonewalled, others got the pansexual harem.
