Much like with Baldur's Gate 3, hardened RPG fans are particularly infatuated with one very NSFW quality of Larian Studios' upcoming game, Divinity – its, uh, sex.
"Very important findings," writes Douse. In the attached screencap, an unnamed developer's message can be seen, reading, "Never noticed our two most replayed moments were the sexy times in xcal trailer." By "xcal," the dev likely means "Excalibur" – the codename Larian gave one of the two projects it's working on (apparently, Divinity). It's amusing, to say the least, seeing devs' private reactions to the community's unbridled horniness.
Divinty's freaky announcement is a great reminder that this is next game from the team that let you have sex with a bear
Larian Studios dev hints there will be sex scenes in Divinity, just in case the RPG's reveal trailer didn't give it away

It's certainly not the first time, however. Remember Baldur's Gate 3 and the whole bear sex fiasco? Or Larian's acknowledgment of player-created mods like, uh, Withers Big Naturals (if you know, you know – if you don't, be grateful). I'm happy to see that neither the studio nor its games' fans have changed one bit when it comes to Divinity, and honestly, I just knew those scenes would be the most rewatched moments the first time I saw the trailer.
Douse previously said Larian's admittedly graphic trailer "isn't about trying to shock" viewers, but rather "about trying to match their powers of comprehension so that it resonates" – and I'd say that checks out. Sure, there's gore and lizard sex, but that's clearly nothing this community can't handle. As the dev put it at the time, "We know people are capable of appreciating a three-dimensional world." Capable indeed.
