Back in the early pandemic days I played through all of BG 1 and 2 on the switch with a completely fresh character. I loved the scale of the games, how it gradually grew from personal coming of age quest up through a continent-ending plot to resurrect the dead god of murder.

Ever since it was announced I've wondered if BG 3 has anything to do with the previous games. Does the actual plot involve the Bhaalspawn? Or the events of the previous games in a major way, like the iron crisis, Jon Irenicus, the vampires in Amn, etc? No major spoilers, please, since I'm probably going to grab the game anyway, but I want to temper my expectations if it's not a true third installment that follows on the themes of the first two (divinity, the value of a soul, what it means to control your destiny, the danger in being friends with someone immensely powerful, etc).

Thanks!

Not entirely sure if this is a Liftoff issue or something else, but when browsing posts after opening the app, the app refreshes and scrolls back to the top of the page seemingly at random. It makes using the app difficult, since it does so without prompting in the middle of reading througu the posts.

You begin to scream as your newborn eyes open to the hospital room, your memory already fading as you repeat this life once again - you had been in that darkness so many times before, but you don't know which way the number is ticking.

Trying to get into Lemmy (and the Fediverse in general) now that the Enshittification of Reddit and Twitter are in full force. My home instance (for this account, anyway) is Lemmy.World, and I'm mostly using Liftoff (though I play around with others to help get a feel for different UIs).

I'm loving Liftoff, but I have one or two suggestions for future releases. The trick is that I'm not actually sure if what I have in mind is a request for Lemmy in general, the Lemmy.World instance, or the Liftoff app.

Does anyone have any general guidelines/pointers on what aspects of the overall experience are dictated by the platform, the instance, and the app?
