      That’s not what sort of means. Sort of means that they did not use them fully, and that’s just not true when there’s not only several of them, but they are a major plot point.

      Would you say “there’s violence (sort of)”? No, there’s lots of violence, no “sort of” involved.

        But the statement was in response to using mindflayers as the main antagonist. Or the big bad. Which we both agree, they were not. So whilst they were a big part of the plot they were not the main bad guy and so…

        To circle back

        They were used in bg3 (sort of)

        Edit: also sort of doesnt mean “they didnt use them fully” it means they weren’t the big bad but they were very closely linked. The big bad was the netherbrain alongsode gortash. Not the mind flayers. You can look that up.

        Wgen the final boss is a mindflayer(s) then come back to me and let me know. Until then, dont tell me what i meant when i said sort of…
