NPC Flirt Packs V0.8 Released!

From the people who brought you Kelsey and Dungeon-Be-Gone, I am proud to announce the initial release of the NPC Flirt Packs for Baldur's Gate 2, available for immediate download at http://www.forgottenwars.net/npcflirt .

Using a concept originally developed for the Kelsey NPC add-on, V0.8 of the Flirt Packs add new romance interludes for Aerie and Jaheira to both the Shadows of Amn and Throne of Bhaal portion of the game. Flirt packs for Viconia and Anomen are under development and will be added in subsequent releases.

It doesn't make sense that the BG2 romance NPCs call all of the shots in the relationship, right down to when it is and is not appropriate to show a little affection. Besides, who among you can say that you've never felt Aerie, Anomen, Jaheira, or Viconia just needed a hug?

Features include:

- Both PC and NPC-initiated flirts and new conversations

- Context-sensitive flirting (new flirts and different responses open up as the romance progresses)

- New epilogues in TOB (three for Jaheira in V0.8, more to come for other NPCs in future versions)

- Optional romance conflict modules for Westley Weimer's Solaufein romance

- Compatible with most mods

- Warm fuzzies all around

Discussion and support forums for the Flirt Packs are available at http://forums.forgottenwars.net

At a mere 300k, ask yourself... can you afford NOT to flirt with Aerie and Jaheira?

I trust you're going to reproduce your initial post in the BG Reference Crossroads sticky thread?

Is it just me, or does the idea of a flirt pack for Anomen fill anyone else with dread? "Good evening. Would you like to visit my tent and see my collection of wood carvings, all in my own image?"

LOL.

Gives me another reason to play BG2 again.

Fable, you may have inadvertently activated User.

I foresee more Anomen bashing coming up.

Heh. Anomen is actually a bit of a tough case. Even moreso than the shy Aerie and the conflicted Jaheira, it's really hard to get a read on what his early flirting would be like... and then there's that whole personality branching thing...

...so you see why I got Aerie and Jaheira out the door first.

Yes, that makes sense. I suspect (just my POV) that an Anomen pre-epiphany would be gentlemanly, attentive, slightly pompous, and full of himself--essentially the same figure presented in his dialog bits, only oriented towards someone he's personally interested in. But after he changed, now, that would be difficult. I thing he might almost be tentative, backing off, remembering what he'd said earlier and being mortified by it. At least, for a while.
