        Nah, Rogan can’t stop eating and RFK was eating roadkill to satiate his worm. The telepathic brainworms don’t eat the brains. They take them over. Stick their tendrils in deeply. Synaptic activity looks like a Christmas tree. Builds quite the appetite.

      Whoaaa whoa now, I like that game. Let’s not compare the two. The Mind Flayers at least LIKE brains instead of totally lacking them.

        What game, singular? You’re not saying you think that BG3 is the game to spawn illithid as a concept, right?

          It’s times like this where I legitimately wonder if I read things correctly.

            Eh, y’all can suck on your own downvotes. 🤣 D&D is not a “game” in and of itself; though one could describe “playing a game of D&D”, that would be a fairly awkward/unusual way to phrase it. BG3 is, without question, the single most famous permutation of this IP (and the corollary “illithid”/“mind flayer”) to date. Thafuq else could you mean, son? 🤌🏽
