This thread is frustrating. Everyone seems more interested in nitpicking the specifics of what OP is saying and are ignoring that a forum sends you your password (not an automatically generated one) in an email on registration.

Its weird how there seems to be a group dedicated to creating and subsequently reporting on imagined faults within Larian. There have been a few articles and now that guy who used an out of date screenshot to make an unfounded claim.

They aren't perfect, and there are a fair number of things issues in BG3.

Like that it has a number of the same issues as their previous game, Divinity Original Sin 2. Suggesting that they didn't see those issues as issues, or didn't see a need to change their process to correct them.

imagined faults

Sending passwords in plaintext in emails is not an imaginary problem.

Nope, but using that to claim that they're storing the passwords in plain text is.

I see it as a non issue because Larian has a previous post up, in a timeframe window of acceptable lack of visible action, about them finding a solution to that problem.

If nothing has been announced in a month or so, then it starts becoming a problem again.
