Baldur’s Gate 3 is the latest game to take the internet by storm, wracking up over 800,000 concurrent players on Steam just days after launch. While Baldur’s Gate 3’s quality speaks for itself, part of that attention has invariably been driven by the game’s romance options, namely how outright horny everyone seems to be. It’s refreshing to see a game so unabashedly afraid of talking about and using sex, especially in such a choice-driven format. Baldur’s Gate 3 is the latest in a line of games released this year, showing that video games might finally be coming to grips, at least a bit, with their sexlessness.
