Some early lower priority camp scenes can also be missed if higher priority ones are queued. To advance companion quests or romances, make sure to long rest often.>Q: Can I recruit Minthara without going down the evil path?>A: If you knock her out in Act 1, yes. You do miss out on the sex scene, but otherwise the romance remains the same.>Q: Underdark or Mountain Pass?>A: Either, or both. It's recommended to clear both on higher difficulties for the experience and loot. Both connect to the same Act 2 map.>Q: Is The Dark Urge essentially "Tav+"?>A: Yes. You get additional content, BUT there are points where if you've chosen to resist the Urge and/or don't complete quests the "right" way, you'll have to pass additional checks to avoid losing companions.>Q: Are there any consequences to consuming tadpoles?>A: No, for the most part. However if you've consumed any tadpoles, there will later be a DC21 Wisdom check to reject the Astral-Touched Tadpole, which affects your appearance if consumed.>Q: Should I enable Karmic Dice?>A: Karmic Dice will avoid streaks of very low or very high rolls, both for you and the enemy. It is recommended to disable it if you're specializing.>Polls:>Romance: https://strawpoll.com/NMnQ5kJXYn6>Race: https://strawpoll.com/kjn18WPzeyQ>Class: https://strawpoll.com/eNg69DKKjnA>Companions: https://strawpoll.com/bVg8o8l3VnYOP pasta: https://rentry.org/bggpastaPrevious thread: >>483624218

>>483778360Ansur tried to kill him, and he's a dragon, surely she can respect that.
>>483778369An obsessive dedication to the truth.
Uhh, rude much? What, just cause I'm a gnome, I'm compared to a rabbit? smհ. The prejudice never ends.
>>483753653https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/1329the game really expects you to go hard core with speak with the dead early on in the game. like I feel like speak with animals is not nearly as good as speak with the dead because there is grimblebock, the 3 at the beach, at least 5 in the grove with kanon, sansa, nettie, the drow and arabella, maybe more. 3 corpses in the blighted village, the 2 brothers, 2 of the 3 characters by the dying dorf, the mailman, 3 bodies by karlach

OP for next thread
>>483781335Why is a druid a manwhore anyway?
Why do so many characters in this game say ta-ta when leavingNo one says that
>>483781485Because sex is natural, not that the shills here would know it.

i'm so mad i can't hug the death shepherd i'm going to do something drastic
>Astarion ascending and gaining power is bad >Gale ascending and gaining power is badbut why?
>>483782562Knock him prone and stand on his chest. That'll teach him to not let you hug him.
Honestly I can't really blame the emperor for what he didThe guy was just trying to survive
>>483781672Brits do
>>483783212No they don't . No one here says ta-ta

>>483783426You're probably Irish you faggot
>swine goes to sleep>schizo stays awake to shitpostWhat happened to the so-called good hours?
>>483783769Good hours is a psyop I also propagated
>20% off >new historic lowfeels good to wait
Very true, Raphael. Which is why I beat you at your game. A Bard to beat a...devil-Bard. Honestly, with Raphael's whole personality and shtick, I feel like he is, or should be classed as a bard. Or at least multi-classed involving Bard.Also I wanna note that one of the nicer things about not having any of the companions is I don't gotta worry about them getting all butthurt about me making the decisions I want. Feels good man.
>>483783769There's like 3 people awake rn just ignore her and she'll get bored
>>483783612I mean it's true. His options were doing a bit of manipulation or being mind controlled. He never betrays you unless you betray him first
>>483783769who's shitposting? all the posts are high quality so far
483784092>herjust go to sleep faggot
why are mods never gith compatible holy shit reeeeeeeeeeeee. Was going to do it where durge, shart and frog were going to do the goblin camp in bugbear armor but the mod isn't compatible with frogs
>>483784108>his>he>himIt's an it.
>Make Aylin>Make Isobel>Make Orin>3 hottest characters in the game>Can't romance any of them>Can romance the abomination lae'zel though
Ever since the bear came to camp there's been a strange fishy smell near Shadowheart
>>483784513You can literally romance an abomination named Emperor
>how bearschizo would be if it stopped obsessing over halsin
Ash, what the FUCK? Why would you do that? Well, I guess as an Arcanist, it's all in the service of knowledge, after all...
>>483784824That's not what I asked for though
Halsin looking down at that vacuum suck face when Shadowheart releases the head with a wet pop and catches her breath before going right back down again, he doesn't even have to force her anymore
It's funny that everyone forgives Durge despite them brutally murdering countless people with varying amounts of torture and necrophilia spread throughout, and Shart is the most popular companion despite being a murderer in the name of the worst god ever, but as soon as Dalyria kills one person in order to try to save herself and all of Cazzy's other victims she's suddenly a monster. Double standard methinks.
>>483784973Your post didn't have any question to begin with brah
>>483784932>her brothers all giving her that "there's something wrong with you" stareShe was always the black sheep of the family.
>>483784513You get 3 attractive female romances even if you're not into frogs. Look at other rpgs and realize how lucky you are. Choose any of them instead of crushing on lesbians happily in a couple or the poster child for insanity.
>>483785151>it was just one kidYou tread a very dangerous and treacherous path...
>>483785535spotted
>>483785552>You get 3 attractive female romances even if you're not into frogsWhere? All I see is a shitty half elf, a gorilla tiefling and a man faced drow
Oh what the Fuck Larian. I just found out after looking at the log that I only got 115 XP for freeing Yurgir. And apparently if you fight and kill him in the encounter, you get like 1000 xp. LARIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!
>>483785535Look out there's a skelly behind you
>>483786025There are 4 male options if you're homosexual.
>>483786172Unfortunately I'm straight, that's why I'm attracted to aylin, isobel and orin
Strange and coincidental timing yet again
>>483785751Relatively speaking? Yeah. Shart's religion involves ruining people's lives on purpose, and murdering innocents. She did it for 40 years. We find her training ground.Durge has killed literally thousands of people, the narrator does say thousands, and he tortured them and the butler informs us we liked necrophilia as well.Yet where are the people responding to every durge post? Every shart post?Dalyria has a legitimate hypothesis about how to cure vampirism and tests it. She's not a psycho, she's not insane, she's not malicious. She's responding to the evil Cazzy is inflicting upon her and her peers, and desperately tries to escape. It's a crackpot theory that of course isn't true, but at least she had a reason and at least she was trying to do something positive. Unlike Shart and Durge.So yeah, it is a double standard.
Orin is the hottest character in the game
Mizora is the hottest and if you play as origin Wyll you still cant do a full romance with her
>>483786250You only have a couple more days of pride month fag then you gotta hit the bricks
>>483786498Not even a Mizora romance would make me play as wyll
>>483786398EaselySarevok is so lucky...
my uncle
>convince Kagha to fight against the shadow druids>start looting the dead shadow druids, suddenly she's too pissed to stand in my presence and attacks meUngrateful istik !
>>483786250Dork Urge is a potential player avatar. What point is there in bringing up their past whenever possible? It's not like the player chose to commit said evil or deviancy. Shadowheart shows a soft spot for children, which humanizes her, regardless of her decades of evil as a Sharran, which is hardly something anyone can blame her for.Dalyria murdered a child. That crosses a line. We don't become more sympathetic to child murderers just because we're forced to spend time with other monsters. I'm not seeing the double standard.
>>483786250As always, you raise an insightful point. The anon who praises Shart whilst admonishing Dalyria is a hypocrite.
First, trolling. Then, long winded pseud posting that doesn't really say anything. Then, praising yourself. A pattern emerges.
>>483787261You did knock her out, right?
>>483786662Yellow/green Grey spots girthy and long, complete forest down there. more so than the other gith
>>483787261And now she, Rath, and the rest are carrion. Meanwhile, Nettie is still in the back making potions...Will the rest of the grove turn hostile the moment I step out? I don't want to kill Inwe or Apikusis...>>483787391Err, no...
>>483786662Jim Carrey Eggman-looking ass
>>483787350Yeah, the pattern of people being unable to ignore the namefag when it would take under a second to filter the name forever. Do you get surprised when you throw a rock into the water and it makes a big splash?
ready for the chair>>483787437spot on as always>>483787591that's pierre's uncle you're talking about. show some respect
>>483787845heh...spot...
>>483787443Why did you do this? Why did you murder someone who had done nothing wrong?
>>483782240literally the funniest line of the game fuck off
>>483787443SHE WAS INNOCENT
>>483787262It's pretty simple. Doing heinous things for 40 years because you think it pleases some asshole god makes you a bad person. Shart stays in the cult because she thinks they rescued her from a wolf, which means she made the conscious choice to ruin other people's lives on purpose and murder innocents as part of her Sharran duties for 40 years because....they saved me. ME. I got mine, I got saved, so fuck 40 years worth of innocent people they tell me to sabotage or kill. This sort of thinking makes you an evil person. A good person stops at some point and says "wait a minute, this is bullshit, the evil I'm causing in their name far outweighs them simply saving my life once".Meanwhile Dalyria was being abused completely against her will for 200 years, and her only goal in killing the kid was to try to find a cure for vampirism, which helps everyone. Doing something evil for an actual positive goal is less bad than doing it for no reason like Durge or doing it because everyone who's not me can go fuck themselves because Viconia saved me, ME, so now I kill in her name for 40 years.When weighing these three character's actions under the lens of classical morality, Dalyria is the best of the three. Her bodycount is MUCH smaller than the others, and she had a positive goal in mind. The other two have been killing or worse for 40 years, and they did it for wacko religious reasons.
>>483787938Ok, well I did try looting Silver the wolf's corpse last, so maybe that's what set them off. And also b/c I got caught looking into Kagha's chest before, too...Will this trigger the grove to start attacking the tieflings, or something? I want to get Mol's ring, still
HE LIKED ME
hey girl...i can't fit through the door
>>483788192I don't have the answer to that question, because I never murdered an innocent woman who had done nothing wrong.
Ash may be a freak, but she sure is a smarty. Bet Shadowheart could never figure this out, heh
>>483788157Dalyria only ever sought a way out for herself. Painting her as a noble soul and scientific mind seeking a cure for every vampire ever is a little far-fetched.
>>483788548>>483788073She attacked me first for looting the corpses of the foes we just fought ! What else am I supposed to do?

>>483789171We all know he removes his name and sucks his cock it's not new information.
Imagine falseflagging to no one in particular when there are only 7 people on.
>>483789197>>483789260She walked into her own moonbeam, I couldn't do anything about it. Seems like this is a common mistake among druids...
Nobody cares how many people are "on" your discord talking about troonshine recipes and gooning to dog asses
>>483789708nothing could be done....oh no
>discord out of nowhereYup.
>>483788942That is what she does. You can find her journal in which she states her intention of finding a cure for vampirism. If her hypothesis was correct, then she would have found a cure, cured herself, and then for everyone else there are much better and safer ways to extract large quantities of pure blood under lab conditions so she wouldn't have to kill people when curing everyone else.The fundamental difference is that Dalyria did have a noble goal, she kept her evil acts to a minimum to accomplish her noble goal, was driven to it after 200 years of abuse, and likely would have gladly shared her findings with anyone else infected.The other two are just religious zealots. I like to think of Shart's selune path as her default path so I am happy she eventually finds her way out of the bullshit we're talking about, but she still did mommy's evil bidding for 40 years before that, on the selfish grounds that none of these people I'm harming, torturing, and murdering matter because 40 years ago that wolf might have hurt ME.The scales of evil in this are far heavier for Shart and Durge, yet you only see "aaaiiieeee babykiller" about Dal. Thus, the double standard.
Bg3 needs more elf druid companions, Kahga DLC when?
Who the frog is "Kahga"?
>>483790014I meant Kagah

>>483790014>>483790129I think you mean Cougha
unconcerned
>>483789806If nothing else, she was a strong druid who gave my party trouble. Never fought her nor Rath and the rest of the gang before, so I wanted to play it own. It was pretty fun.
>>483790129>>483790150No I didn't
>>483790150*coughs on your cock*>>483790246I don't think I've ever killed the druids by themselves I'll have to try that next time
>>483790014Frogha
>>483789945>You can find her journal in which she states her intention of finding a cure for vampirismYeah... for herself. What's the large-scale cure supposed to be? One orphan for every vampire? I'm assuming the process involves grabbing street urchins nobody is going to miss, considering the danger of "safe" blood transfusion under "lab conditions." Does Baldur's Gate even have that many youthful blood bags?
>>483790890Excellent post
Why does shart wear makeup like a whore
I tolerated Orin stomping on my Bhaals.
C'mon, man. Why aren't I getting XP for completing the Gauntlet's trials? This definitely XP worthy.Fuck, man. I fear at this point, with 10k XP left to go to L10, I may have to go back, to the creche and kill all the gith to make up for it all. This is so lame and gay.
>>483790890No, you can donate blood without dying. Multiple kids can supply more blood than she got from the child she killed, allowing her to test her theory even further than she could have, and without anyone dying. You can easily incentivize people to donate blood through legal and safe means. It obviously wouldn't all happen in a day, and obviously there would be some vampires who wouldn't even want to be cured. You are aware of all of this, which means now you're just going on a pointless tangent that you know is pointless, and doesn't disprove anything.The bottom line is that Dal is a much better person than Durge or Shart, yet there are multiple Durge and Shart posts every single thread that don't get a "aaaiiiee childkiller!" reaction. I'm just pointing out a double standard. If you don't like it, then stop doing it, instead of trying to go on a tangent about the minutia logistics of curing vampires lmao
she didn't have a pocket ham this time. she had a pocket sausage
>>483791807>pocket sausageSlightly spicy with a nice snap to it when you bite into it. I think she has meatballs in her other pocket.
I do like the fact that I'm using different party members for each of the trials. It just feels right. Faith-Leap performed by my Monk, the religious one, Soft-Step performed by my Bard, the clever one, and Self-Same performed by my Barbarian, the tough one.
Shart kissing Tav and telling him she loves him after going ass to mouth for her druid lover a half hour before.
Hey no fair, why does he get a +8 HP buff? Well no matter, still gonna kick his ass anyways. Made sure to send my bombs to my party also so they don't get used against me. That would be very inconvenient indeed.
I like this. It's a war of attrition between me and myself. Only I'm the better me. He sucks.
>>483792180what about the spots. what's the spot situation like
>>483792747Imagine dying by the POO Scraper
>>483792776Looks like white spots. Kinda like a pepperoni has.Smell situation, back of a Papa John’s.
>>483791734>which means now you're just going on a pointless tangent that you know is pointlessI blame it on the autism. Maybe you can relate.Anyway, sure, Shadowheart committed evil on a much greater scale over however many years she was an active Sharran, nobody is disputing that. It's easily explained by her being kidnapped and indoctrinated since she was a child. Explaining is not excusing. We don't actually see her do all of that, though. It's very human to then find excuses or downplay her responsibility, especially when you see evidence she's not quite the Sharran she wishes she were. Is there a double standard, then? In a technical sense, I guess. I happen to judge some random minor NPC like Dalyria more harshly than a companion who spent 80 hours in my party.
He doesn't seem to get that the whole dal killed a child back and forth is a joke does he
Dare I chance it?
>>483793132>maybe you can relateKekHe can probably relate to the going on pointless tangents bit too
>>483793458Child murder is no joke. The one singular Dalyriafag should never forget the nature of his wife.
>>483793645The death of a child. A timeless comedy that never grows old.

Goddamnit, I still have just over 10k XP to reach level 10, and I'm just about ready to to kill off Moonrise and square off against Thorm. Fuck me, man. Unless the remaining Moonrise guards net me 2k xp, and freeing Nightsong nets me 2k XP, and the first Ketheric encounter nets me 2k xp, and the colony nets me 2k xp, I don't see how I'm going to reach level 10 in time for Myrkul. Even if I kill the Creche, which I neglected, I feel it will still be just shy.What in the hells, man. I literally finished everything else.
>>483796114I’m sorry to hear that, call the cops

>>483796679Is he talking to gale at all this run. That might have something to do with it
>>483796679>aren't you in act 2 and lann tarv is in act 2? I thought the tag goes away when you get to act 2Yes, but I guess it seems to be an unresolved minor bug that Larian hadn't considered if you neglect to recruit Gale, which I did. He got made at me after I peered into his mind and told him to fuck off cause he's a walking bomb.
Thinking of buying the game, is it possible to build a Halberd character? How cool do the halberd/spear weapons look?
Oh...Lae'zel...you're still there. Hey, sorry about this, but I'm heading back to your creche to kill them all because, uhhhh...XP reasons. Sorry, it's nothing personal. You were cool for teaming up with me on the Nautiloid tho.
>>483796848You can do anything you want if you're not playing the highest difficulty. The game is pretty forgiving. I think the one feat you want (Polearm Master) is bugged though. There's an easy mod fix but it's something to keep in mind.
>>483796848> is it possible to build a Halberd character?yes, on of the best weapons in the game is a halberd. the only issue is the game basically treats halberds, pikes and glaives as the same weapon so you might have to switch between the 3. the other issue is pole arm master works wrong so you can't do the pole arm master sentinel bullshit because the timing for it to trigger means the enemy gets to run right up to you instead of you stopping them 10 feet away >How cool do the halberd/spear weapons look?imo they make the halberds too big

One of the few Gith I actually like, and considering I took his egg from him, he gets knocked and gets to live. But sorry, creche, I need that XP more than you do. Plus all of you are kinda assholes desu, so it's justified.Also, holy fucking hell. Wiping out the creche netted me approximately 3k XP, give or take a couple hundred. Jesus Fuck. Let this be known to Anons here. If in dire need of XP for fast leveling, the creche is a heavy source. 3 THOUSAND fucking XP.

>>483808054I would clean her entire body with my tongue, no scrubbing necessary!
>>483806108This sounds nice in theory but to be honest all that you gain from this is the medium armor proficiency, and that's frankly not that important. Going pact of the blade lets you bind any weapon so you never have to worry about weapon proficiency, and I would honestly rather go human or half-elf for the shield proficiency instead. You want your warlock to be wearing robes typically, and armor of shadows plus a shield is just as good for AC as medium armor for most of the game. Eventually, if you didn't want to wear the potent robe for some reason, you would probably give them the helldusk armor anyways which doesn't require any armor proficiency.

Fuckin-a. Nearly everyone in Moonrise slaughtered, and the only thing left is for me to free Nightsong and fight Ketheric, and yet I still have just over 6000 xp to go. I swear, how is this? I have done literally everything on all the maps, killed everyone who can be killed. Unless freeing Nightsong and fighting Ketheric + the enemies down in the colony get me 2k xp each, I don't even remember how it was last time. This is crazy. Feeling sweaty here.

Wait there are two of us in here with rape kinks?
What do Astarionsisters think of the swine's analysis of their vampire?>Astarion is a character who for centuries suffered the negative influence of a bully master, who constantly abused him, and who perverted his nature. When Astarion distances himself from Cazador's clutches, he demonstrates and understands that, while remaining faithful to his narcissistic and opportunistic nature, it is also possible not to be completely society's waste, maintaining his human aspect of him.I'm not posting the entire thing but I think that part is the most pasta worthy. We all should be grateful to be graced with such insight and it should be immortalized.

>>483845454>humanGood for elves.
>while remaining faithful to his narcissistic and opportunistic nature, it is also possible not to be completely society's waste, maintaining his human aspect of him.I think that's quite the illogical statement. So Astarion is narcissistic and opportunistic by nature? But also the "human" him was not yet these things? First of all, that's headcanon. Second, even humans are capable of being narcissistic and opportunistic and "society's waste." Does this remind you of anything?

So if Astarion was always a pretty worthless and corrupt magistrate, what part did Cazador actually PERVERT? How does he demonstrate the "human aspect of him" once he distances himself from his BULLY MASTER? So many questions, and so few answers.
>>483848547Ask the girls that fucked THAT ANIMAL BLUNDETTO, I can't even say his name
>>483850184If anything, you and others are dishonest with others, few, honest anon left here.Every day you invent a new one to direct the discussion of the topic to something else, anything except talking about the game.Last night and today, it seems, you went back to "he's doing it on purpose to make us angry, the same anons who spend days begging him to kill himself". Also attributing not only "mental illness" (disgusting bully behavior btw) but also being somehow "assblasted" (???). I'm sure that archive mice like you will have no problem going back (perhaps through the use of a constant image resolution?) They will be able to report my exact words on the matter once again.>>483850621Very interesting question and in my next post I will explain my thoughts more.
>>483850621He was straight.
>>483849969Nobody is here anymore except like 5 people with 10 different schizo personalities.
Don't call me a bully. I never abused my spawn for 200 years.
what if they liked the abuse?
>>483850873Take it easy Phil, you know Act 3 makes you emotional
>>483850956I think slopfaggot likes getting his pozzhole negged
>>483850621We honestly don't know much about Astarion's life before the events of the game, other than the things he himself tells us so he's a classic case of an "unreliable narrator". Nor do we know if Cazador chose him as a target because of his position of power, or because he was a lover of the good life and therefore an ideal "hunter of prey".Astarion is a classic case of a narcissistic personality and at the beginning of our adventure we also see some sociopathic aspects of him: lies, abuse of trust when he tries to bite us during the first nights at the camp, almost total absence of empathy.As the story progresses, albeit through selfish actions again, such as the considerations through the cult of the Absolute or his reactions of "Astarion disapproves" when we selflessly help someone.However, as happens with Rolan, the vampire witnesses much better examples of leadership than what he experienced and suffered with Cazador: for example with Araj, when the party could benefit from a great boon, if we refuse the offer Astarion is amazed, but grateful for having listened to him. He almost doesn't conceive that such an action is possible, after years spent thinking only of his own interest, to survive. Again, when the nature of the inscription on his back is revealed to him with Raphael.There is a difference between having a high opinion of yourself, to the point of holding a mirror with you even if you don't have a reflection as a vampire; and being a hunting machine with a constant "fleet or fight" sense activated for 200 years.
>>483851735Cause I got an empty fucking stomach, fetch me a Monster and some Doritos.
>We honestly don't know much about Astarion's life before the events of the gameDidn't you agree he was a corrupt magistrate 10 minutes ago? But now it's "we honestly don't know much"? So it is your HEADCANON, or is it not? You have to be consistent, little piggy.
>>483850621Going from a petty asshole to a sociopath is a big step, anon
>>483852401At this point I seriously doubt your verbal comprehension ability, anon.Because even if you purposely misrepresent my words, you cannot seriously and honestly come to such stupid conclusions.Give me back the namefag, at least they know how to complete a paragraph.

>Wasn’t he a corrupt judge?>He was10 minutes later...>We honestly don't know much about Astarion's life before the events of the game.Interesting. Am I misrepresenting meaning again by copypasting words?>>483852636We just don't know. It is possible Astarion was always a sociopath, and we all know sociopathy becomes more prevalent in positions of power. It's not some kind of magical attribute you can only unlock after years of abuse. Maybe, maybe not. We can't tell, you can HEADCANON it as you wish.
>>483852995>We don't knowThen why act with complete certainty that we do? If you start from an unknown, how much PERVERSION can you actually determine? We can observe the end result, but the beginning is left to our imagination.
>fleet or fight
Feed or Seed
>>483853246If we apply this absolute and frankly completely useless reasoning for the purposes of discussion, we cannot consider the development of most of the characters ever written, since we do not know their story from their birth.You are applying scientific considerations to a humanistic discussion.
>>483853246>>483853897Both of you are faggots
Don't judge elves by modern human standards. They're different. Astarion is least sociopathic elf.
We do know a lot more about other characters and the circumstances of their past, and we can judge them for that accordingly. Shadowheart was kidnapped as a kid and brainwashed repeatedly when she refused to comply. Nobody is sitting here suggesting that uh maybe, maybe she was a good Sharran? because we're explicitly told she wasn't. We don't need to know her entire life story since birth for that. So this weak deflection to more general matters doesn't work, we have specific counter-examples in the same game.For Astarion, we just don't know. Whether he was the biggest corrupt piece of shit jailing innocents and ruining their lives for a bribe (a sociopathic trait you will agree) or a relatively innocent person who was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. That's just your HEADCANON. A headcanon upon which any further analysis is fundamentally flawed, because it assumes a degree of goodness that existed in him before he was turned, virtue that might have never existed in the first place.
Anti-gur laws are good. I like Astarion.

Are there many options for Half-Orc or Dragonborn unique race specific dialogue? Thinking of doing a Durge berserker barbarian playthrough. Was just curious because Drow had a fucking million.
>>483788157your view on human psychology is so warped its hilarious. then again i shouldnt be surprised as you like minthara.
>>483856657These races have no history and no culture. Half-orcs are displaced rape babies and not even the lore writers can explain what Dragonborn are. They exist only to be options for players who enjoy being freaks.

>>483858282believe it or not i was one of the first to post makeupless lae'zel because i thought she's beautiful without it
scratch x shart
Lae'zel is only pretty when you fall in love with her otherwise she's just a strong warrior companion.
I killed Lae'zel :)
>>483858472Your post made me appreciate her without the makeup
>>483858726>>483858625
How insufferable are the woke shit in this game?
>>483858625Im not in love with her and I think she’s pretty.
>>483855054>maybe she was a good Sharran? because we're explicitly told she wasn't.Except she kind of was? She stood up for Rennald/Nocturne when people at the cloister bullied them. I don't understand why you cling so stubbornly to this type of argument that has already been proven to be wrong, but you probably have difficulty understanding the events of the game given the example you give of Shadowheart.Astarion specifically also talks about how he feels alive again, how the colors of the city bring back ancient memories: we don't know his specific actions, but we can intuit from these dialogues a more "gentle" nature, which is not mutually unique to being a narcissist who uses every opportunity to always stay on his feet.Especially, I repeat, there are numerous dialogues following his Ascension that show a more empathetic side of him.Astarion himself talks about the resentment towards Cazador, and if his liberating cry doesn't make you understand how perverse there was in this relationship, I don't know what to tell you.For someone who spends time insulting others for their "lack of attention", you yourself seem to be the first to forget or, even worse, omit key parts of the narrative.Furthermore, speaking of "perversion of character", I consider it to mean an accentuation towards the wickedness of already negative traits present in him. Was he an opportunist? He becomes a profiteer. Manipulator? He becomes a sneaky liar, and so on.Which was clear from the start, if you weren't so assiduous in wanting to turn against me regardless of the facts.I repeat: give me the namefag with which at least we can have a respectful discussion about the events of the game.
>>483858625An astute observation. Here's another: When someone is ABUSED by their BULLY master, they tend to resent them. This is realistic and thus the mark of a well-written character.
>decades of honeypotting, torturing, killing and stealing gith artifact>stands up for a troon>wow she's a good person now>>483858872please specify what you think is woke
>>483858872Depends. It's most intrusive political issue is save muh refugees, but if you mean cultural wokeness there is probably too much to count.

Shadowheart opens the door, COMPLETELY naked and stabs a tranny in the scrotum.
Astarion was a good person before he was turned. We know this because... uh... well... I just think it's a pleasing headcanon.
i'm so sick of him looking directly into my soul
>>483856906>>483857125imagine being so obsessed that you reply to a 14 hour old post from the nametranny

>>483859810I give them a pass
>>483859810namefag is an honorary tranny
You know who else is a good person? Minthara. Minthara is a good person because she's willing to accept a Dark Urge who has turned his back on Bhaal's power and this is further exemplified by her desire to be independent of the divine. Of course there was that time when she would crave power at any cost and still wants to take control of the Absolute and she had entire dialogue trees where she would reject you if you rejected Bhaal's immense power under the logical understanding that you were too weak-willed and soft-hearted to be anything she wants from a mate but let's not dwell on that she's actually not THAT evil or stupid lol she's just evil enough to be the evil drow paladin gf.
>>483859936Mintharafag WARPED you.
>>483859146>but if you mean cultural wokeness there is probably too much to count.Guess I'll have to install the anti woke mods if I ever decide to buy this game then. Unfortunate this is what BG series has become.

>>483859245I recommend using more consistent language next time then. “Competent” is a better word than “good.”Furthermore, by now the discourse is stating the complete opposite of what I was saying: an already "fraudulent" nature, exasperated by 200 years of torture and abuse, becomes even more perverted.>Not reading the rest of your verbal diarrhea.If you don't want to hear my answers explaining why you're wrong, why are you the first to be hostile? Perhaps, I repeat, you don't really want to discuss Astarion's character but you just want to clash with what I say, given your constant insults.
>>483860149Not him but you should both go fuck in a car that is actively falling off a cliff into hell.
>>483860136Ah yes, "Reapers"
>>483860149>I recommend using more consistent language next time then.I recommend using this thing called reading comprehension and inferring from context that "good" in that case does not refer to her position on the alignment axis. It's about what we DO know about characters and what we DON'T know - the latter is where your HEADCANON starts. You worthless pig fuck.

>>483860663what's important is what you feel in your heart to be true
Astarion was just trying to legally help good people, decent people, the small folk. He was only a little corrupt but that doesn't mean much. He was a good boy before he was PERVERTED by his BULLY evil master.
>>483860354I thought it was a nice attention to detail when he changed from plate armor to leather armor to be stealthy
>>483860982He should've wore a hood too
>>483860891You have no argument point to be expressed, sounds like you're a triggered mentally ill person.
I recruited Karlach way earlier than usual and she's been permanently ~400xp ahead of my party, is this normal?We're almost level 11, I don't remember it working like this before.
>>483860381This conversation is no longer about the nature of Astarion and you persist in not only repeating what has already been said. I don't see why we need to continue when you have demonstrated your hostility several times. It almost seems like you use generic and vague terms just to be able to overturn your point of view. The point is, I don't, and I use my words carefully anon. I recommend you do the same.>>483860902It makes me very sad that these threads now have few topics for discussion, and those few that remain are completely overturned by trolls who extrapolate small parts of larger discussions just to be able to shitpost.This time I can only blame myself for thinking that there is still some intellectual honesty in some of you.
>>483861153>anyone who implies I'm stupid is le triggered mentally ill person... because he doesn't have an argument!
>>483860897Well. He probably hasn’t had his gith cat’s bath in awhile in this picture so it’s STRONG down there very sweaty, probably gag worthy.
I was happier when I didn't know what '' polyamory'' was. Shoot your local tumblrina.
>>483861370I'm sure you would like it that way.
>>483861274>intellectual honestyRofl.I want to attack you and cut off your head, but since I can't do that I'll just insult you instead and make you strain your brain or waste your time in an argument about a Baldur's Gate 3 character. There, is that honest enough?
You just post worthless headcanon that attempts to pass as wisdom or truth. Nobody can dispute Shadowheart was a shitty Sharran - we're explicitly told that. Anyone can how much of a piece of shit or how innocent Astarion was before he was turned - that's called headcanon. Stop doing that and then I won't have that kind of material to mock you anymore.
>>483861562What does that fucking mean???
>>483861780I have no horse in your autistic race but astarion was a corrupt magistrate according to the artbook
>>483859017there is no point in arguing, mintharafag loves ignoring or avoiding your points to keep rehashing his own and people eat it up because they dont actually know how to argue.
>>483861932So he was already a piece of shit. Not saying he deserved what happened to him, but there wasn't much perversion that happened. Maybe he never gave a shit about others.
Astarion? Gentle? The very thought of it gives me the ick.
>>483861370gag worthy FOR YOU maybe
>>483861273If you recruit someone with higher experience, the gap will stay. If you recruit someone with lower experience, they will catch up to your level.

>>483863006*YANK*
>>483862265He was still human. He probably liked puppies and donated to charities. Only vampirism and abuse turned him into the sociopathic asshole we love to hate.
>>483863083Dalyria suffered the same, yet she's still sweet and nice.
>>483863006it's so thin
>>483863174Maybe Astarion just SUCKS as person
>>483863174That makes her a poorly written character. It's realistic for victims of BULLYING to resent their BULLY. Astarion's reaction to BULLYING is realistic because he's well-written.
>>483862946If she was she wouldnt be in the goblin camp as a leader
>>483861571Finally, a post where you're honest with yourself. Thank you, I accept your concession.
>>483863313Yeah, the bully specifically, not everyone else. Dalyria might despise Cazador but she knows not everyone is like him. Astarion is rude to everyone, especially midgets (for no apparent reason too).

>>483865287>white irisesThat's just another disguise, as is her entire poorly-written personality. You see her story is actually well-written because she's a well-written character since all of her insipid saccharine actions are the result of her fake personality mental enchantment, we know her brain is mentally enchanted by magic because she's a well-written character and therefore would not have a poorly-written and shallow waifubait personality unless there was a well-written reason for it.

Orin is a character who for decades suffered the negative influence of a bully deity, who constantly abused her, and who perverted her nature. When Orin tried to distance herself from Bhaal's clutches, she demonstrated and understood that, while remaining faithful to her insane and murderous nature, it is also possible not to be completely society's waste, maintaining her human aspect of her.
>>483870546You're completely based, we already knew that.>>483871512Put your name back on.

>>483871512I'll praise her like a hero if she kills thieflings.

Orin should've just become an actress and tormented a poor actor well known for his goofy pirate role, she would've found whatever evil equivalent to happiness that exists for a Bhaalspawn. Instead she put her faith in a god that didn't appreciate anything about her and died.
I... WIIISH... to see Shadowheart pubes.
>>483857870It's a great game in spite of being rtwp. I'll just put it that way.You'll be learning THACO and other outdated mechanics, but that's fine, if you approach it as a self-contained game and not a way to learn current dnd then it works fine.It's a good game, if you're interested then it's on sale for pennies atm.>>483864512I loved her in bg2.If her appearance was the same but her story was that she was in bg3 to help you destroy the sharran cult and you had a team up because the bg2 romance arc was decided to be canon then she would be my bg3 waifu again. But alas, they made her a stooge doing things she already decided she wasn't going to do anymore, so I usually just kill her and move on. I guess I have to assume my bg2 character wasn't canon, and that Abdel Adrian was a LAZY gamer and didn't do any romances or sidequests. >>483862946I would still like her, perhaps even moreso since I tend to really like the knight in shining armor waifu trope (Galfrey, Argenta, Kisara, etc).I may talk about evil waifus a lot here, but usually I actually go for the paladin waifus. Minthy is kind of an exception, since she is well written and unique in this game.
>>483872109>I guess I have to assume my bg2 character wasn't canonObviously not. We can't have a canon female protagonist.
>>483872248But anon, you couldn't romance Viconia as a woman. There's no way the namefag would use mods to alter one's sexual preferences.
he's so fucking confident
>>483872454You gotta stop posting pictures of Pierre it’s like a flash bang every time I see his face.

>>483882850I like how pleased with herself she looks.
>>483882401true neutral be like picrelmy chaotic neutral bard would be like>sign the deal and let's see what happens
Why does Swen hate BG3?
i'm sorry...
>>483884705BG3 has always been Swen's sidepiece
>The captain-pilot is the emperor>The illithid who tadpoles you in the opening is the one to run to the ship and pilot itThe Emperor tadpoled you
i don't like that
>>483885324I tadpoled my cock inside your mom lmao
Literally just "Astarion, but better"
>>483886068DelusionConvince yourself
>>483884970You could have saved his smile.
>>483886316*smooches my smol husband*
>>483886068BG3 needed more Stacies like Seb and Lohse
>>483886068>same backstory (controlled by a Master and forced to do things they didn't want to do, even including the "being sent to a box" thing) minus the vampirism>Astarion's vampirism is just a vehicle for "He was controlled by Cazador", there's no mechanical changes or disadvantages>Astarion rees about how badly the world treated him and how he can't trust anyone and will naturally pick the option that turns him into a complete psycho literally unable to feel human emotions>Sebille rees about how badly the world treated her and how she can't trust anyone, then slowly grows to trust you (with all of her dialogue reflecting it) culminating in her trusting you with the Song that dominates her, trusting that you'll use it to stop the Master>Sebille also willingly chooses to not engage in TOTAL ELF DOMINATION>Astarion tries to assault you in the middle of the night, Sebille doesn'tShe is literally just a better depiction of the trope Astarion is going for
>>483883529wait does gish actually refer to a specific class or something?I always thought it just meant melee/caster hybrid
>>483887223I’m gonna rape you with the poo scraper knife
>>483887223The streets want a DOS2 remake with BG3's engine
>Act 1? Fun.>Act 2? Passable.>Act 3? Beginning and the middle are fun!>Act 3, Only Orinn and Gortash have left? Time to start a new game.Fuck does this game have a tedious and boring finish line.
>>483887338"Gish" as a term came about FROM the Githyanki. In older lore, it's a Fighter/Wizard multiclass Gith and a specific title within Githyanki culture.Then dnd made a bunch of "Gish in a can" classes like Duskblade, Eldritch Knight, etc so it's a very catch all melee/caster hybrid term now

hello frens. im gonna play new campaign on new character. Gonna sword bard it up with a focus on sword, and just pick spells that dont really have saves. Is this retarded? Just gonna use a rapier and a shield with dueling fighting style. ranged weapons are GAY
>>483888269Your balls are also going to be cut off with the knife too
>>483888302A sword bard...using a sword? But what about the meta?
>>483888302>basic male drow appearance templateYAWN Snooze Zzzzzzzz
>>483888404xe cut them off already tho......
>>483888302>Just gonna use a rapier and a shield with dueling fighting styleYou need a race that gets shield proficiency, or to take a feat/dip into another class for it. Bards don't get it innately, and Swords Bards don't get it from their subclass.But no, that's fine. You'll be able to beat the game just fine. IDK why you'd do it over something like EK or War Cleric, but go nuts
>>483888730And ate them…

>>483888941So business as usual then? You'll live.
>>483888990I think he's cute.
>>483884705Because it barely got out of development hell as a sellable product.Warning, food analogy bellow:>You are an independent master chef cooking with the best ingredients on the market, you have immense creative freedom to design any dishes you can think of, and you have the ambition to create the most perfect masterpiece ever tasted by mankind>the thing that actually put you on the map and got you the game of the year award was how you boiled and served a bowl of Campbell's (trademark) soup made from the powder of your choice of ingredients
