Fucking wut. I've never historically liked turn based or isometric games and BG3 is engrossing as fuck. This person needs to step out of their comfort zone and take it for what it is, or just accept it's not for them instead of shitting on it.

Don't have high hopes from the trailer to be honest but definitely want this to be good.

Sean Carroll's latest episode is a discussion on the self with Brian Lowery. Brian asserts that the self is a purely social construct.

Here's the summary of his book from the Amazon listing:

Social psychologist and Stanford professor Brian Lowery presents a provocative, powerful theory of identity, arguing that there is no essential "self"—our selves are social creations of those with whom we interact —exploring what that means for who we can be and who we allow others to be.
