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 DC 21 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 low 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: >>538225534
>Mizora's VA said that she reckons they'll definitely expand on all the sex scenes because the fans love them>Mizora's VA was super disappointed with her sex scene and wanted it to be more explicit and sexual. She begged Swen to add more Devil sex into BG3 but he said no. She feels bad that the fans didn't get moreNever fucking forget what Swen took from you
>>538451368>he said nofucking faggot
>>538451368we should have been able to romance her to cuck wyll even harder
>female VA begs the director to make her sex scene more explicit and longer so she can make the players happy by providing them coomerful content>game director says no and makes it super tameWhy does this happen? Why won't men let women be sluts?
Sharts voice actress plays herselfLaezels voice actress plays herselfKarlachs voice actress couldn't be any more different
Is anyone else getting really worried
>>538451606>VA wants her character to be more prominent >game director says no good riddance, fuck self serving bitches
If I'm doing an honor run with my mc as a spike growth tb / club of giant strength abuser, what party would you run alongisde it?hunger of hadar and sleetstorm spammers? feels like its going to get real rest heavy real fast.kind of feel like I need something waiting at the end of the spike growth to fuck up anything that just tortured itself to get there or to carry fights that this interaction cant be abused super well on. any advice?
>>538451606>google image>mizoraWho's Mizora
Missionary with Astarion
>>538452031whatever to spam hunger, and then two martials most likely.I'd probably just keep it simple, and maybe run a fighter or a monk, and then one of the meta archer builds.
>>538451610>Karlachs voice actress couldn't be any more differentThis is a good thing
>>538452189What
Triplets with 'Lach
Creampie:ing Shadowheart, Lae'zel, Karlach AND Minthara.
Shadowheart literally doesn't shit. She has an anus purely for aesthetic reasons, same as Mizora. Lae'zel meanwhile has eggy diarrhea falling out of her gaping egg chute, the perfect compliment to her ghoulish appearance.
>>538452031no idea, my hm run was just a party full of mostly gear agnostic support types with a ssb at the front absolutely fucking everything up because ssb basically yoinks the important gear of pretty much every archetype
>>538451368>Never fucking forget what Swen took from you...a more overtly sexual scene you can only see if you cheat on your partner? Nothing of value was lost. Please leave my general.
>>538452894>cheat on your partnerIt's only cheating if women do it, men should have harems.
omg who do i choose unnies?
Storm Cleric is better on paper but Light Clerics Radiance of the Dawn is just more useful day to day.
>>538453102If you have to ask, then it should be Astarion.
>>538453151That ability is really solid, the fact that they're both pure reactions and don't require a rest or spell slot helps a lot
>>538453102Astarion
>>538453220>>538453952i'm not gay but i wanna kiss him so bad

>>538456682
>>538456682Cute couple.
>>538456682it's been a while since i've seen mintharafag actually post about minthara and not shadowheart
>>538452894I should he allowed to cheat on my evil run. Also what if i don't romance anyone and fuck mizora?
I dislike scratch
>>538453151Light has good reaction, Tempest has no need for reactions as they kill everything on their first turn

Do we still hate Shadowcute?
>>538463579the brothel & mizora/emperor wanting to fuck out of nowhere gave me bad skyrim sex mods vibes
>>538464381I think Mizora does it to piss off Wyll and to troll you if you have a love interest.
>>538464348We've always liked Shadowheart - just not the raven-haired Act 3 version you posted.
>>538465114why should wyll care about your sex life? no wonder no one likes him
>>538464348surprised anybody even goes the dark justiciar route with her. not only is she an insufferable cunt as a DJ but you lose out on Dammon because he dies when last light inn falls.
>>538466545I like her natural hair better than the fake platinum dye. Dammon doesn't sell anything THAT useful so it's no big loss, and the Dark Justiciar gear you get is pretty sweet. Also she can redeem herself during her final quest anyway and still get her absolute best ending where you settle down with her and her parents.
>>538464348i will never hate shadowbaby
>>538466818Dammon is needed for Karlach's quest
>>538465767Based Swen making the mandatory black guy so bad that white women won't burn the coal, I kneel

What the FUCK is her problem
>>538470304wyll is so lame
>>538451368Mizora and her VA owe me sex, it's in the contract
this grin is so hot
>>538466818>I like her natural hair better than the fake platinum dye.A man of true taste
How necessary is the durge cloak for gloomstalker assassin? I'm starting to realize that I'd rather play a duergar from the underdark than some duergar shaped amnesiac surface dweller,
>>538471264>Mizora: I consent>Players: We consentSwen: Is there not someone you forgot to ask?
>>538471762That cloak is amazing on any unit, but especially amazing on hit and run units because you can kill an enemy and run away before all the other enemies can catch up and repeat this until there are very few enemies left.
>>538472049Oath of Ruining Fun
ok
>>538471762The cloak makes archers in general fucking broken.
SHOT THROUGH THE HEARTAND YOU'RE TO BLAMEDARLING BG3 HAS NO DLC
New really shaddy update just dropped, we've also hit 140K downloads HUZZAHShadowheart may ask Tav to perform the Nightfall ritual before going to the cloister and finishing her questline.The morning after DJ Shadowheart saves her parents, she will tell Tav that she wants to be with them, now and always.If DJ Shadowheart saves her parents, she will ask Tav to teach her a swimming lesson.If DJ Shadowheart saves her parents, she will have a heartfelt discussion with Tav about their future.Added a new opening to the Daughter's Tears cutscene for ex-DJ Shadowheart.The chatty stool won't work if Shadowheart is sad (the faith crisis in act 2 and the post-cloister crisis in act 3).Shadowheart won't pet animals if she is sad (similar to the above).Fixed a bug when dialog abruptly ends when Tav asks about her worship.Fixed several misplaced flags in the "lite" version.Conversation about a night at the beach no longer prevents Tav and Shadowheart from building more sandcastles.Corrected Minsc so that he doesn't think Shadowheart is a sharran after she saves her parents on DJ path.Re-worked a very special dialog that happens when she makes her mind to reject Tav's proposal.Fixed a bug that caused repeated [!] over Shadowheart after she broke up with Tav because of the druid.Fixed a bug that prevented selunite Shadowheart from saying her "quite a bedtime tale for the children" line.Fixed a bug that caused Shadowheart to start a discussion about Nightfall or Skinny Dipping whlie in fact Tav bailed on that.Fixed a bug that prevented selunite Shadowheart to tell Tav about the children if Tav gets her in a family way.
>>538472195>>538475603Can I do without it though? I don't find the durge story to be all that fun to roleplay compared to custom origin.
>>538475817larian should greenlight this for consoles
>>538476136It's on mod io and the pc in-game mod manager. Which means if it's not on your console, then it's a sony/microsoft decision, because mod io is the integrated mod service for bg3. https://mod.io/g/baldursgate3/m/really-shadowheart#description

>>538476757john's gonna freak
>>538475817I bless the autistic modders
>>538475895yeah you can just not use the item
>>538464348Never did, Shadowheart's vagina is warm, soft, and tastefully hairy without overdoing it. She's adorable and loveable.
>>538461184yeah, man. I'd hold out for demon waifu if we had that option. it would fit an origin W*ll
I love wizard so much. Every time I play, I have to force myself to not just play wizard again. I love the huge spell list to choose from, I love the flavor that you work hard for you power instead of being a nepobaby sorc, I love scribing scrolls and collecting the complete spellbook, and I especially love that the unique scrolls that are one of a kind that you get to scribe. I love that you have damage, support, utility, and cc. I love getting like a 22 spell save dc and watching everyone even bosses slip and slide on dc22 ice surfaces. Plus wizard has an absolute ton of subclasses. Not all of them are good or worth playing, but it's just enough to add variety to different playthroughs even if you want to stick to that class. Everything about it just such a fun class, it's nice having a clear favorite.That all said, cleric with a spellcasting statline is pretty much just a wizard with heavy armor, which is super cool too, so that's an easy second favorite. Less summons and less elemental and damage options but more support which is fun too.Sometimes you just gotta hit 'em wit the Artistry of War, and then do it again once every short rest.luv bg3luv me spellsluv me booksSimple as.
>>538463504just this for now until I beat honor. usually mix a little poo1 and starsector in tho
>>538479353All of them except the guy that makes REL.What an unfun, autistic loser piece of shit.

>>538481834the thing about mods is that you can just choose not to install them if you don't like themit's absolutely amazing and nobody verifies if you're doing this
>>538483614I use that shit, found out he's a gigantic faggot, said "wow, what a gigantic faggot," and kept using it because it's fun. also amazing
>>538483614You can't just not ask for a threesome, so don't lecture people about mods.
I like RS because it lets me marry shadowcute
I like absolute ending because I can make everyone my bitch
Can someone explain the "act 3 has no content narrative" it pretty much gives you non-stop one-off quest after one-off quest.
There's a famous question that kindergarten teachers will ask their class to gauge how their minds are developing.Susan and Kelly are having a picnic. They both have an apple, and a basket with a lid. Susan places her apple into her own basket, and then gets up and goes to the bathroom. While she is gone, Kelly takes Susan's apple and places it into her own basket. When Susan returns from the bathroom, which basket will she look in first for her apple?Most adults will answer Susan will look in her own basket, because that's where she put it before leaving, and adults understand that Susan won't know her apple was switched. They are able to put themselves in Susan's shoes, and they are able to conceptualize another person's thoughts. Young children who have not developed empathy or object permanence or the concept of other people's thoughts will often answer that Susan will look in Kelly's basket, using the logic that is where the apple actually is so that is where she would look first.The reason I tell this story is because you will often see Sharties say "well just don't ask for a threesome" as a response to the Halsin situation. If you ask Shart for a threesome with Halsin, her response is "yes, in fact I've already been daydreaming about it for an extended period of time before you asked". So when you do ask her, she establishes she's already been daydreaming of it for a while. So if her daydreaming about it occurs before you ask, then what are her thoughts in the situation where you don't ask? It's already happening when you do ask before you ask, so when you don't ask, would it still exist? Use your object permanence and conceptualization of another's thoughts skills to find the answer.
>>538486682I let the goblin kids kill Halsin with a rock because he's a weak bitch and then Shart never knows of him and therefore cannot daydream of him.I also cut off Gale's hand, never pick up Wyll, and allow the vampire hunters to take Astarion. My party is me, shart, frog, and minty
>>538486682Bro
>>538486682I feel like this is only for low-level autism
2 years after the release and he's still seething over a video game character dreaming
You've been losing the same argument for two years now because you have deep autism, and can't understand how people speak. The idea ofnon-literal communication is lost on you, like a blind man describing color.
>>538486905this, but frog, minty, and the modded mizora hireling
>>538486682I like the one where they say she was lying or joking there as if she doesn't also approve in camp when he asks then too and then actually fucks him if you do say ok. these people are either retarded or the most dishonest shitters on the planet
>>538487551>one anon seethingvs>almost 50k people who downloaded the mod because they're seething
I still don't get how shadowheart is the most popular romance when karlachand lae'zel are right there, who plays a fantasy game and thinks to themselves >im going to romance the generic emo white chick
>>538487920Right, the argument "she was only lying for your sake" has been defeated in a similar fashion as well, but they're fundamentally dishonest so they'll repeat that one every few threads too. If she was lying for your sake, then she might be more hesitant to actually have sex with him, she wouldn't give disapproval points for you backing out of the threesome, and she also wouldn't be so eager to have you have sex with him in camp and tell her about it. There are several of her other behaviors or game-mechanical indicators that she was not lying or joking at the brothel. This has all been covered many times in the past, but these fundamentally dishonest people will cycle through them anyway.I know some of them are just trolls trying to have people go over the old Shart dead horse for the 100th time, but I feel bad for the portion of them who genuinely try to convince themselves she was joking or lying despite the multiple evidence of the contrary, or that if you don't ask her about it then it just doesn't exist.
>>538487982Minthara would be dreaming too if she met your fat ass irl
>>538488131especially the one who's like RESPECT MY PRIVACY DONT ASK ME ANYTHING REEEEEE I AM SO DARK AND QUIRKY
I like the one where you carry on conversations with yourself, hopeful to give the impression of popular acceptance rather than widespread mockery and scorn. It's obvious to everyone, but you can't get a handle on why.
>>538488675He's fucking insane
>>538488176My other favorite is when they accuse anyone agreeing with you of being you on multiple devices. it's so fucking pathetic
We're all fucking insane here anon you wouldn't be here if you weren't insane
Karlach definitely seems like the type of girl to be into gooning
>some samefagging jeet acting like we're all the same person b-but not him>weekday
>>538489292You literally goon with her while waiting to fix her iron man heart
>>538489507We only get implied gooing and a kiss that slightly burns you, we do not get a official gooning scene because larian is full of cowards.
>>538489615Goon patch when
no gale you idiot its because they're both undead
>>538483614The mod is a wonderful idea. But he keeps fucking it up by removing exploits and changing the gear acquisition.Why make something fun just to rip the fun out of it, it's fucking stupid, I think this faggot worked at Blizzard before or something.
First time playing this game.Is the edgy dark elf in the goblin camp a tranny?

SWEN YOUR SHITTY LARIAN LAUNCHER UPDATED MY GPU DRIVERS WITHOUT MY CONSENT FUCK YOU BALD FAGGOT
>>538481281>I love the flavor that you work hard for you power instead of being a nepobaby sorcThat's because you only play elves, a long-lived race with a natural affinity for magic. That luxury is not given to everyone in Faerûn. Imagine being born human and having a lifespan of maybe 80 years, half of which is your only realistic window for hoping to make something of yourself or changing the world. Would you waste five to ten years painfully trying to learn cantrips and your first ritual spells? Or would you rather embrace the gift that is your birthright?
>>538488176>characters both written by the same dude>the dude is an overly buff for an elf sexpest who does everything he can to fuck anyone he canIt's clear the writer just has a cuck fetish or Halsin is his self insert and he has a crush on Shadowheart's VA.
camp conversations with wyll are so tiresome
Wyll if asked if he banged Mizora>I'm not really that kind of man.Also Wyll>Ah, Halsin is such a thicc delight
>>538495969Hehehehehe wyll is gay.
>>538494919A human wizard can be born with natural talent, see Gale and Elminster.
>>538494797thank you for buying bg3 and supporting larian, make sure to pre order the early access of our next big rpg so we get to listen to your feedback stay tuned
>>538495969wait until you hear about what he thinks of astarion

If Dalyria was a companion would she be the Serana of this game?
>>538499254No. She murdered a child.
>>538499549based
The tutorial ship has so many cool details and mindflayer faces built into the design.
I used to be an animorphs fan and let me tell you, I always thought that Elminster and Ellimist were the same character until I played BG3
Radials sure are a pain when you're a learned spellcaster that uses illithid powers.

How do people manage to do multiple playthroughs of this game? The combat to me isn't very interesting, seems more like a "means to an end" and even though I haven't played since launch I basically remember the entire game so whenever I try to start a new run I get bored of dialogue by the time I reach the grove. Even having completely new party members and trying new classes/subclasses I just feel so bored. I keep find myself alt tabbing to find something to watch or getting distracted and walking away from my computer. There isn't much buildo autism in 5e and this isn't a "gameplay" game like an action rpg so I just find myself mind numbingly going through character dialogues to progress and quit after 20-30 minutes every time.

>>538506350>difficultiesDoesn't change the game enough to warrant a second playthrough, maybe Honor mode exclusively but people were already doing their own "honor mode" before the mode existed with only allowing 1 save, no scumming, and permadeath.>modsAgain, not much make the runs that different. You can add some new classes sure, but the majority of the game is dialogue.>different charactersSeeing the unique stuff is fun, but the difference between Tav and Durge is like 1-2 hours of content, but the playthrough takes 50-100 to complete all with basically the same shit going on. There is even less new content playing as an origin, since you see 95% of it just having that person in your party in your Tav/Durge run, some of them don't even get a single unique scene when you play as them.>game altering decisionsFew and far between + the game has been out for 2 years most people have already seen it spoiled for them.
See now you're being deliberately obtuse.
>>538507396No, I pointed out my issue with the game being that I know how 90% of it plays out and how seeing 1 new dialogue choice after 200+ dialogues isn't exciting enough for me to stay invested in a new run where I'm already getting bored by the grove. Your response was pointing out why people would play more, without addressing the actual issue. Maybe those people are neurodivergent and don't mind running through the same 100 hour story, with slight variation, again or maybe they have bad memory and forgot the entire first playthrough. Either way 5e classes play so similarly and all the fights are the exact same that the combat doesn't engage me in playing more and the dialogue is the same shit as the first time around except now I get a wacky durge option every once in a while. That doesn't feel like enough for me. It doesn't suddenly get rid of the 60 hours of playing through the same exact stuff and watching the same exact dialogue cutscenes I already saw just to get 5 hours of stuff I didn't see.
Would Shadowheart be willing to give you a snowball kiss?
>>538506145>How do people manage to do multiple playthroughs of this game?>btw i hate half of the game and played it only to feel included yeah i wonder

>>538509854Yes, most Drow nobles would never touch a m*le.
you WILL play the game and you WILL be happy
>>538512410I might not, actually...Trying to do a new run with my friend, but my pc seems to hate bg3 now. It's been running much worse these last few months, and now my fans are blasting pretty much every time I load bg3.Feeling closer to suicide than I have in my life, this legit might be my last year.
>Slop & Stupidity>None of the elements present in the game suggest that Astarion was ever sexually abused>Being sexually abused is not the same as being used as a prostitute to attract hundreds of victims for your master.
>>538513337sexually exploited, not abused
>>538506145You try this bait every single thread, and every single time you remind me of the swine that's too soulless to understand roleplaying - the active process of portraying a character who exists in a fictional world. A reminder of porcine wisdom:>Roleplaying is not something as demanding as going on stage and playing an actor, it should be more natural, even if in such a large game, FOMO is around the corner.That's what you are. A pig so afraid to commit to a playthrough with its narrative choices and consequences, that it brings all ten companions in a party and treats the game like a fucking theme park - because of "FOMO." And once you've exhausted all dialogue options, heard every companion banter, cheated every encounter, sucked all the marrow out of the bone, all in one playthrough - then there's no incentive for another playthrough, obviously. You don't understand roleplaying. You are one step removed from the pig playing with its ten dolls, and getting bored of them. Fuck off.
Yes I post here every day because I got bored of Baldur's Gate 3, 2023's GOTY and possibily the LOTR equivalent of video games, how could you tell?>you remind me of himaww, stop thinking about me silly~
>gratuitous slop>nothing worthwhile to addHow do PEOPLE manage to do multiple playthroughs of this game? I don't get it. I've seen everything in my Party Limit Begone playthrough already! It's all so BORING now. At least /bgg/ is there to attention-whore and post incredibly stupid takes.
>>538514006Ironic that I posted this pic, and now my pc may well join that swine in a toasty fate.
>>538515049>>538512730I'm sorry for your PC anon, kind of the same thing happened to mine last year and part of my storing devices got fried, lost lots of screenshots and my old saves.When was the last time you did a backup/cleaned your PC fans?
>>538514006That's a lot of projection and assumptions to be making, retard-kun. I brought 3 people with me, didn't even get Halsin, Minthara, Jaheira, or Minsc on my first run. I just played the game and roleplayed my charismatic good guy character. I did manage to find all the explorable areas in the game as well. But roleplaying is what you yourself imagine and envision, it's heavily limited by virtue of being a video game and having a set path that you have to go down. No matter what options you choose in Act 1, you will go to the same Act 2, and you will go to the same Act 3 and the variations are not large enough to constitute an entire second playthrough for "roleplay" alone. The only "roleplay" you can do in BG3 is "good, bad, or gimped retard that makes a dumbass build using salami weapons" because it's a video game. The NPCs will have the same dialogues, there is only a handful of meaningful choices in the game that actually impact the story, the story beats will remain the same every time, the endings are mostly the same with slight alterations and only massively change between "good" and "bad"So yes, roleplaying would be a great incentive, but it cannot be an incentive because it's a video game and not an imaginary scenario you can roleplay out with limitless possibilities and completely different stories and settings.
Planning to do a second playthrough, are those extra item mods for each class any good? Those look cool but don't know if they break the game difficultywise or something.

>>538516257>assumptionsI would call them educated guesses. When I read something like,>I keep find myself alt tabbing to find something to watch or getting distracted and walking away from my computer. I picture someone who has trouble immersing themselves in a fictional world. Someone who doesn't understand the roleplaying that lends itself to such immersion. I am reminded of the swine's low-INT take of what roleplaying means, and how RPGs are like theme parks, where one is incentivized to try every ride (because of "FOMO") and once it's over, there's nothing more to it. Roleplaying is an ACTIVE process. It's not the same as replaying a movie you watched months ago.>So yes, roleplaying would be a great incentive, but it cannot be an incentive because it's a video gamYou don't understand roleplaying. You are limited by your imagination. The genre is simply not for you. Go play an ARPG for a thousand hours, each one drastically different from the one before. Take the attention whore with you.
>>538517975>I picture someone who has trouble immersing themselves in a fictional world. Someone who doesn't understand the roleplaying that lends itself to such immersionDid you miss the part where I already went through this fictional world and already exhausted all the dialogue I could with every NPC and the only changes would be "act like an asshole here to make everyone mad"? Since that's basically all the dialogue choice you get. You either>be generally good>be snarky because lmao millennial humor>be a dickhead "Astarion and Lae'zel approve"That's why I'm bored, because I already did all this shit. Zevlor getting a bit pissy because I chose to tell him "I don't have time to do your chores for you" does not make me want to commit 100 hours to the game again.
>>538517234The drow are often described as even more beautiful than their surface cousins. Your first point is already wrong.
>>538517975You do not understand roleplaying simply because you'd agree with him if you did. You can't roleplay a video game, it's on rails. You can only roleplay in real life because only real life humans can be both proactive and reactive. The NPC will regurgitate the same line every time because that's what it is programmed to do. Until you can play BG3 in a way where you can type out your responses and an AI will generate a response back then there is no roleplay to be had, only the facade of roleplay with limited choice. Thoughbeit BG3 has more choices than a lot of other games, but it's still not real. It's all an illusion. You will still get funneled toward the netherbrain no matter what kind of roleplay you want to do. What if I want to roleplay a schizo who steals the artifact from Shart and then goes and lives out my peaceful days in another continent talking to my guardian-fu and pretending like nothing bad is happening in Baldur's Gate? Well I can't
Am I tripping or is female human face 6 literally Valentina Nappi?

>>538518951The narrative provides a framework. Everything else is roleplaying, i.e., your sole responsibility as an honest player. How fucking soulless do you have to be to make the intellectual shortcut that since NPC lines are the same every time, that since the three-act structure is fixed, that since the endings are already finite and predetermined, you somehow don't need to do anything resembling roleplaying? You are PLAYING a video game. And since this video game happens to be an RPG, you're also ROLEPLAYING, hopefully. It's an act of participation, by definition. If you're only interested in the plot - X happens then Y happens then Z happens - then you might as well have not bought the game and watched a movie on youtube. Spoiler alert - you defeat the Netherbrain and the world is saved. What a story that was.

How would you go about creating an “adventurer” kind of character? I’m tired of power tripping with wizards, druids, sorcerers and barbarians. I want to do something kinda like Frodo, where he’s basically a nobody who gets dragged into an important quest and has to use whatever means he has to survive.Which class should I use for that? I’m probably going halfling cause Frodo.
>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.

>>538521063There's an achievement called Jack-of-all-Trades which is rewarded when you take 1 level of all 12 classes in the same playthrough without ever respeccing at Withers. So you pick a class at char creation then multi-class into something else at every level-up. Now I don't give a fuck about achievements but I found this concept refreshing and I think it aligns well with what you're aiming for. It's like self-contained dipping where you're not allowed to have the grand prize as multi-level investments are not allowed and you don't get to cherry-pick (sub-)classes but only their order. It keeps your might at bay while giving you a plethora of options to solve whatever the game throws at you! Like a Swiss Army knife!

>>538541635You do you, man.
>>538543090these aren't even real people and many of their relationships are open ended. At least the writers seem to think Shadowheart leans more lesbian.
I don't like wyll because he's black. There, I said it.
>>538542202She has more comments saying Halsin is hot than she does saying Karl is hot, and she also doesn't have multiple sexual situations that she actively disapproves of you backing out of with Karl, and she doesn't encourage you to have sex with Karl during your relationship, so it would seem your impression that she likes Karl more isn't based on facts, and actually contradicts them.But even your not-based-on-reality question has an answer, which is that the same author wrote Halsin and Shart, and he had a self-insert character that he constantly fellates by having Shart lust after him regardless of her relationship status. It's just a juvenile writer who couldn't resist pairing his two characters together, a waifu and his self insert. It's really not a mystery why all the Halsin stuff exists, once you see the same name on the writing credits for both characters.
>so-called Mintharafag talking more about Shadowheart than his own "waifu" againhere we go
>>538544031In this image you can see Halsin in the background. I can't get rid of him with the NPC toggle as that makes Manthara's corpse disappear. But it fits for you.
>>538542939I'm in act 3 near the circus and they both have the kiss/romance options. Guess it is a bug then.
why don't you schizos just filter his name
Should’ve just left Halsin as some bloke you bump into now and again, right? Instead they’ve shoved him in the gang like he’s one of the main lot, but he’s not got much going on. Feels like they’ve taken some early version of him, stuck a load of daft stuff on, and now he’s wandering about like he’s in one of those fan stories people write when they’ve got too much time. It’s like they’ve made him for themselves, not for the game. Bit weird, really.
>>538544341
is there any way to soften Minthara

what's the whole 'goodberry' meme all about?
Paladin, Oath of Devotion, folk hero, high elf high charisma, with Karlach, Wyll, and Gale. Is this the best set up for a the goodest goody good playthrough?
>>538545254goodberry is a first-level spell for druids and rangers that halsin, jaheira, and minsc can cast
>>538544934Sort of. You can steer her away from wanting to control the brain by reminding her it's a bad idea that will draw too much attention, and she realizes it and is happy conquering the underdark and/or Baldur's Gate by conventional means. If you mean make her nice, then no. She's always LE/NE and she doesn't change that. Which is based, since every other evil character in this game can change to N, so somebody has to be evil.
>>538545329right but the whole 'goodberry pie' thing?
what's the whole 'paladin' meme all about?
Is rogue difficult to play well? I’m on my first playthrough and I’m still level 2 but my character feels kinda useless compared to my companions
>>538545327>Karlach "Let's hear the duergar slavers out first" Clifford>Warlock>Gale>goodlmfao
>>538545254They're convenient in tabletop but utterly useless in bg3.
>>538544786>posting the edit
>>538545423I thought Shadowheart changes to good if she goes Selunite, or is she neutral? A lot of her approvals seem a bit good aligned to begin with
>>538545473>Is rogue difficult to play well?kind of, yeah
>>538545429goodberries can be used as supplies for long rests and would likely make for a "good" pie
>>538545541can you please give me a constructive response instead of just mockery, jeez. Gale seems mostly neutral trying to make amends and the other two try to be good.
>>538545423Remember when you said Minthara had a sex scene in act 3? Nobody should believe the things you write.
wait the game has alignments?
>>538545473are you using your sneak critical attacks?
>>538545795wyll is trying and mostly succeeds but he consorts with a devil on the outsetkarlach sucks at being good, ask for her opinion on soul coinsgale is neutralyour best bet for goodest goody good is three hirelings
>>538545429it came from this copypasta:>Shart laying back, exhausted from Halsin's pounding>Daddy Halsin sitting back with his pipe, supervising your clean-up>"mmmnfurfnfmmm nurmomnurghh good mmm arrmgfrnmm mmm goodberry good">"Slow down, Tav! You'll make yourself sick!>"There will be plenty more Goodberry Pie for you later :)"
>>538544786>>538545604
>>538545627She's always been a normal person who was brainwashed to be evil, so throughout the game she secretly approves of being normal and disapproves of being evil, even if she verbally says otherwise, and will say she's a hardcore Sharran. Originally, one of the reasons I liked the character is that she lies to you about her alignment, which is always fun in crpg parties.If you steer her away from Shar she stops pretending to be evil and embraces her normal person self. She's no longer pretends, and gets to be herself.As for the difference between N and G, you have to actually do Good things to be Good. She retires to a farm and takes care of her own parents, which is a Neutral act and a Neutral lifestyle. If she were to, say, go on a crusade against Sharrans as revenge for how they treated her and she uses her unique knowledge of the inner workings of Sharran cloisters to make sure they don't do what they did to her, that would be a Good act and a Good lifestyle. Goodness is about doing things, it's action.
>>538545429That's what Minsc & Halsin cook up for Tav every evening
i just fucked astarion and i feel kinda gay
>>538545970The game doesn't mention them and does not feature them, but the alignment system is a sacred cow of DnD so people still talk about them. And the bg3 characters do have character sheets published by larian/wotc that do have the alignment box filled in, so they gave their impression at one point too, even if the videogame itself doesn't mention it.For some of them, it's really obvious. A loyal Sharran is obviously evil, a loyal jackboot of Vlaakith is evil, Karlach is obviously chaotic good, Minsc is obviously CG (and has been for a long time in canon, despite what his original AD&D character sheet said) and Asty is obviously NE. Some characters change, such as Frog being N when she stops following Vlaakith, or Shart being N when she breaks out of the Sharran cult, or Asty being N in his freedom ending.For some, they have traits of two alignments, which can make writing one on a sheet harder, for example Minth having traits of both NE and LE.bg3 not mentioning alignments much is a part of a larger effort from wotc to downplay alignments. Paladins don't need to be LG/LE anymore, they can be anything according to their oath, and a lot of the races that had racial alignments just don't anymore. It's still part of the game and the spells that have historically cared about alignment still do, but they're just downplaying it a bit in lore and some class identities and race identities.
>>538547074You shouldn't, he's great
>>538547074>I just had sex with a man and I feel kinda gay
>>538547091I think it's *really* because you can influence them a lot and they don't fit cleanly into alignments because of this, on a normal playthrough where you aren't pushing her to moustache twirling villainy Shadowheart blatantly doesn't have her heart in being evil even well before act 2 despite her chosen god.and when your influencing them alignment shifts would be clunky as fuck, I think alignments were always wonky when it came to mortals, it was more about what spells influence what outsider.
I am gay I like to stick my dick in men's assholes
>>538544341These are exactly the things that would make Minthara go crazy, and not in a "mommy dommy post goblin party cute sexo" way.>"You proclaim yourself 'alurlssrin', you claim my name as your own: and yet your mouth speaks only of the half-elf. My blade has tasted blood for far less, iblith."

>>538550997Ok, I loled
>>538545327>>538545795Let's define it from the other way round, shall we? If you want an evil party then Minthara and Astarion is a must, with probably Lae'zel being the best candidate for the last spot. They either straight up support or at least don't mind such choices.I'm running a goody two shoes playthrough without Minthara and Astarion kept to the minimum and I have zero issues with anybody. Constant 65-70% approval with Gale being almost maxed out and I'm not even halfway through the game.
>install mod that adds new encounters>breaks the one quest reward i want
Goodautismos back at it
Wyll would fuck with Lil Nax X's early albums
is Wyll Kendrick or Drake
>>538513337RIP

>>538552542Why re her ripples slightly poking through her dress?
>>538550948this would be my list except switch frog and gale
Every time you dot call wyll the blade you are dead naming him.
>>538544031eh shart calls karlach hot on at least three or four occasions. probably about equal with halsin. she sees karlach as real relationship material and not just as a sex object so that explains her turning down karlach poly. halsin is supposed to be a sex fling and nothing more
I don't get how people are still so autistic about this, all the companions have dialog flirting with eachother.
>>538554565stop triggering him into writing paragraphs
>>538552542cute
>>538525603good idea nonny i'll try it on my next playthrough
>>538554736the brothel mindbroke thousands
>>538544031Shadowlach is literally canon in a Larian real life universe
karlach klussy
>>538554565>sex fling and nothing moreanon but years of loneliness made me idealize sex and now I can't help but consider it a reward for my emotional involvement and any escape from the norm is unacceptable and sinfulbtw Im sarcastic and you're correct, I actually think Halsin's "romance" feels like a last minute addition compared to the othersdoes he even have other sex scene other than the brothel one?
Karlach wants to get double teamed by gale and wyll but I don't see any autist writing paragraphs about that.
>>538544031he's been crying about shadowheart for 3 days in a row
Nametranny also hates Karlach. But he hates Halsin and Shadowheart the most.
>>538555119>he doesn't know about the bear scene
>>538554565I just listed multiple things that she does have with Halsin that she does not have with Karl, and all of the ones she doesn't share with Karlach are significant things like disapproving of not having sex with him and encouraging her partner to have sex with him. The idea that they're "about the same" is absolutely false, and of course you ignore more than half of the things I listed when saying that. Naturally.There's also nothing at all to suggest she views Karl as relationship material and not Halsin, or the other way around. Her coments include "she looks like she could lift me over her shoulder and carry me to safety" which is the exact same sort of muscle lust she has towards Halsin. Her comments are of the same variety, so your take is once again not based on reality. Shart is empathetic towards Karl and does like her more than just lusting after her muscles, but to suggest that when it comes to sex it's meaningfully different from what she says about Halsin is not true.>>538555119Yes, he has other sex scenes, which actually puts him as having more sex scenes than some of the main characters. He's also one of the ones that has choices to make for the player (sex with him or a bear) which not all of the main cast have.I actually agree that he was added last minute and makes less sense than most of the main cast, but just correcting the other part.
Post things that frustrate you about the game>when leveling up a wizard, you have to make a mental checklist of scrolls in your inventory, so you don't choose spells you don't need to
gale/wyll/halsin never stood a chance against him
>>538555520In this one she has the gremlin face
what is the best good-aligned deity to have as a cleric, interaction wise?
>>538555127because you made that up
Karlach is poly and into gangbangs but I don't see any autist writing a ton of paragraphs about that despite being the second most popular companion (larian is lying about the romance statistics btw)
>>538555283...the one with the squirrel??wait thats real?I thought that was only for the memes bros...Swen loves memes...
>>538555701>larian is lying about the romance statistics btwastarion lost quit crying, emperor is more romanced than him too btw
>>538554736This has been covered many times. All of the companions have comments about how physically attractive Halsin is, even the men, but none of them have a scene where they give you disapproval points for not having sex with him, nobody else eagerly encourages Halsin's camp scene not even Astarion, and nobody else tells you they've already been daydreaming of having sex with him over time. To try to dismiss the topic as "everyone thinks Halsin is hot" ignores several ways in which Shart goes the extra mile on the topic. They're not all equivalent, not by a mile.
>>5385558653 YEARS
>>538555520>There's also nothing at all to suggest she views Karl as relationship material and not Halsinher comments when you try to date both at the same time? its clear she sees the player with karlach as a real relationship but not you with halsin. astarion acts the same way actually. he views halsin as a simple sex fling for you
Seriously how did they get away with adding bear sex into the game, isnt that beastiality?
>>538555865>but none of them have a scene where they give you disapproval points for not having sex with himliterally all the companions that can join the diddy party disapprove, even Gale quit lying
>>538555654
>>538556106yeah astarion disapproves of not inviting halsin into your drow orgy too but mintharafag always ignores that for some reason
>>538555826Literally no one talks about karlach
>>538556327He doesnt give a shit about male romances
>>538554565>she sees karlach as real relationship materialNah, if you tell Shart you want to party with companions and dance around the fire, she gets disappointed.Shart by all accounts prefers chilling and the quiet, Karlach pretty much wants to party hard.
>>538556340She's the most marketed companion and is on the face of the latest dnd book, her VA played her in an AD alongside the VA of 2 GTA5 characters, meanwhile Neil has to hug ugly trannies for brownie points to stay relevant
>>538556453>>538555005
>>538556553Astarion is on the cover of new dnd books too? Stop being retarded
>>538555526There is no distinction between dialogues that progress the conversation and the ones that provide optional information.
>karlaches VA is brazilian So are you telling me karlach could have been fucking me with a sexy brazilian accent but larian said no?
>Oh Pookie I'll make you forget Sebastian
>>538556106You are being misleading because Asty doesn't even want to have the orgy at all. He dissociates during it and stares off with his 1000-cock-stare and the narrator even comments on it, so we know he doesn't even want to be there at all.Asty disapproving of not inviting Halsin also doesn't change anything about the other things I listed. Asty doesn't mind you having sex with Halsin in camp but he doesn't quite jump at encouraging you like Shart does, so it's still different.Also, and most importantly, there being one other character that generally approves of sex with Halsin, but to a lesser extent than Shart, doesn't change the actual point being made, which is that Shart is the most enthusiastic by a large margin and the statement "well everyone says he's hot at least once" is irrelevant and doesn't represent the situation. Shart goes above and beyond any other character in terms of desiring and encouraging sex with Halsin, and people trying to say otherwise have been proven wrong on many occasions, and a "well Astarion also likes it somewhat" doesn't change anything about the actual topic.
>>538557401>You are being misleading because Asty doesn't even want to have the orgy at all.he clearly does since he asks you to join even if you don't romance him, I'm not reading the rest of your post you clearly proved that you don't play the game
>>538557401
>>538557401the sharties and astarionsisters are too stupid to understand the significance of the dissociation scene. you're literally talking to people too stupid to get it. they see the green +1 and think that summarizes the character's feelings. you even explained it to them and their only response was didn't read. it's sad. you're looking for in depth discussion in a shitposting playpen full of retards
To the Astarionsis who mentioned some sister making 3d animated porn. I finally saw it!
>>538556728Mass Effect had that sorta figured out, more info on the left, renegade/paragon choices on the right. That said maybe it's also a failure on our part to not just roll with the punches and enjoy the roleplaying however it happens.
Karlach has multiple lines about wanting to share you around and doesn't care if you sleep with other people also she has multiple lines about how she wants you to pass her around alot but despite being the second most popular romance i don't see autist writing paragraphs about that (larian is lying about the romance numbers btw)
Are clerics just the feminized version of paladins?
>>538556728that's a good thing, that's how actual conversation go you have to be careful with what you say to get the extra fluff I like that
Murdering Cazador in his coffin in front of Astarion.
>>538558541Karlach isn't terribly popular in this general and frankly i don't see her being that popular overall, due to the more invested fans realizing that her questline is pretty barebones and even in her best ending, she goes to hell.The epilogue dangling a solution and then dropping the expansion didn't help there either, i guess.I think a lot of people went with her on their 1st playthrough because they kinda liked her attitude and saw her as the big muscle mommy alternative to Shart.Even when /bgg/ was far more active, people posting Karlach were pretty rare, whereas there was a whole lot of shartfags.
>>538556106Gale approves either way actually which is pretty weird considering he doesn't even want to be involved
>>538560234He was groomed by mystra as a child so he unironically thinks like >wow she is pushing me to try something new i respect thatOr>she let me set my own boundaries this is amazingDepending on what you picked .
>>538558262I'm sad that she mostly focuses on Astarion x Gale animations, but I like her work so much. It's filled with genuine emotions, which is so different from the porn made by men.
Gale was designed for women who want to be the abuser in the abusive relationship.
>>538560860Yeah im icked by all the gay porn she makes. We were so close....
Reminding gale that he was a depressed nothing without mystra until I fixed him and that he better listen to me so i can keep fixing him.
>>538557861you seem too retarded to understand. he doesn't end up enjoying it at the end but that doesn't take away his consent or feelings before the scene occurred
Did we really need 2 elf druid companions ?
>>538557559Idk why he calls himself MIntharafag anymore. He almost never posts about her.
>>538558541She actually does care. She's not enthusiastic about sharing you but understands it as a practical aspect of you not being able to touch her. She daydreams about being promiscuous and "sleeping her way across the sword coast" but that is to herself, and she makes no indication of that sort of behavior once she is dating you, which means she's happy with you.Plus, nobody lies about Karlach. There aren't any people here constantly posting about Karlach is just lying or joking when she says it's ok for you to sleep around, and there's no one saying "well other characters say Halsin is hot too so it's all the same and equivalent". I correct misinformation whenever it's posted, and no one posts misinformation about Karl very often, so of course she's a less popular topic.If there was someone constantly saying Minthara is a Chaotic Good hippie who just lies every time she says to murder someone for power, I would be constantly correcting that person. But Shart is the only character that has one or two consistent liars, so as a result she's the dead horse topic in need of correction constantly.Karlachfags happily enjoy their waifu and don't feel the need to lie about her constantly to cope. They don't shitpost like Sharties do. Because Karlach doesn't have any weird Halsin lust they're insecure about, she has the normal amount as anyone else.
>>538561952>any weird Halsin lust they're insecure aboutLITERALLY you
>wake up in the middle of the night>turn to spoon with Shaddy>she isn't therehuh must be on another one of her midnight swims
>>538561952man shut the fuck up
>>538561952karlach doesn't care if you sleep with a drow prostitute. she's not a fan of halsin but a random prostitute is fine. play the game and stop lying
>>538557401Astarion agrees to the orgy because he thinks Cazzy's death fixed his sexual trauma and to quote him exactly at the brothel, "I'd like to try doing things like this again, now I'm free to find my own desires."only for him to find out that's not how trauma works, and therefore disassociates
>>538562946what a faggot holy shit who tasked a gay man to write a male romance no wonder women hate his guts
>>538561394he's quick to jump back into things because he genuinely wants to enjoy sex for himself again, even though it's not the smartest thing to do with trauma like his
>>538562946She does care and does not actively encourage it the way Shart does, but Karlach's easygoing and permissive nature makes her allow it and she just makes some comment about saving some energy for her too, to try to remind you that you should care about her too. We've been over Karlach's attitudes towards polyamory many times here too and nothing has changed on the matter. Karlach is permissive, which is different from Shart's enthusiasm. >>538563089There's literally nothing wrong with that response. He doesn't want you to have sex with prostitutes and sees it as turning your back on your relationship. He discourages it, but not in an outright demanding or instant manner. This is a normal and healthy response to your partner chatting up some prostitutes.
Karlach would definitely get off on watching another girl aggressively peg you infront of her.
>>538563505ok cool
>>538563505At rate, I am guessing you had a big crush on a girl who "cucked" you by mentioning her 10/10 boycrush and you knew you couldn't compete because you are massively obese and severely autistic. Shadowheart and Halsin are just a constant reminder to this girl. So you take your pent up incel rage on them every single /bgg/ thread. You would be happier if you just killed both. Your "waifu" is evil after all and will actually fuck you if you kill Halsin and the grove.
Wake me up when manthytranny stops shitposting
>>538563804his name is shadowheartfag
>>538563804So never he does this almost 24/7
>>538544341It really makes you think, doesn't it
Shadowheart, dripping with goodberry, beckoning you to help clean her upDaddy H nearby, watching with an approving smirk
The only reason karlach gets mad when you fuck mizora is because you didn't let her watch.
>>538563505karlach doesn't care about a one off like a prostitute but does care when its a fling like halsin. shart is fine with short term amusements like halsin and one offs like prostitutes but draws the line at sharing with another person who wants a serious relationship.it isn't really that hard to understand and it's pretty clear thats what larian was trying to get across. that other anon was right when they said shart likes karlach more than halsin overall. karlach is someone for a serious relationship and halsin is not
she dreamed without MY consent
>going to die soon>serious relationship
>>538564731lmao
>>538542939Can I date two in act 1 and then start a minty romance on top in act 2?
It's okay when karlach does it because she is pretty much a make a wish kid.
>a better posischion
>>538564936Why are you a slut
>>538564936yeah except minty is beginning act 3
>>538565226it's an rpg
>>538563804you know he's only responding to the liars right
>>538564961Yeah that's why no one cares about karlaches proclivities, she is pretty much saying >I want do a ton of crazy sex stuff and see you do a ton of crazy sex stuff before I die
karlach & gale, like to watch, wyll has erectile disfunction and minthara is ugly, this is swen's vision
>>538565531Karlach doesn't like to watch in the traditional cuck way, she wants to know her partner will have a good sex life when she is gone because she truly loves you
>>538563059Astarion wanted to join but didn't end up liking it. Gale didn't want to join but ended up liking it lol

Shart slut shames you if you dump her for Halsin, and she won't join you and Halsin at the brothel if you didn't romance her/dumped her. I think the namefag overshoots a little bit with his arguments.
only High Elven maidens are allowed from now on
>>538567526

>>538562946where's astarion
>>538570615this has to be fake. I refuse to believe mintharfag was right the whole time >i'll have my own fun toowhy is this game like this

Just fucking murder him ffs
I will never have a girlfriend as cute as Shadowheart, how to cope?
>>538570615why do BG3 characters look like they're chewing on extra teeth?It makes me ill every time I see it
>>538571882get an ugly used up gf like minthara
>>538571203Her writer is juvenile and has her lust after his self insert character. He wrote them both. It's pretty straightforward. Everything I've ever said is for transparency and making people aware. I would not joke or exaggerate about something like this anon. People telling you information are not trying to hurt you, they're trying to help you. This post >>538544031.Bg3 is a great game on the whole, but some things deserve criticism, and one of the writers putting a masturbatory self insert that other characters lust after even if they're dating the player is just such a juvenile thing to do.
>>538572081he's an award winning writer he won you lost get over it
I used to hate him for taking Shaddy away from menow... it feels... differentwhat was rage, still has my heart thumping but now I...I want him to do it, I want to thank him for it
>>538572081He is writing the space game so I hope you stay away before you ruin another rpg general with your virgin waifu crying
>>538573207imagine his reaction if the token white woman ends up having dreams too
kneeling in front of Shaddy after He's finished with her...the final debasement, while they watch expectantly, him relaxing with his pipe, her splayed out before me, her damp Grove in front of me>g-good yes goodberry good
>>538573207if the sharters simply admitted it you know he wouldn't go on these tirades
>>538573473I HOPE SO. I hope all the female choices have DREAMS >>538573562He is the king of the Sharties lmao
how can he be king if the sharters all hate him
>>538573817yes he would his first crush ended up dreaming about having an orgy with a stinky druid and he can't cope with it
so he's reformed? while the reallyshart modders are retards
>>538574202
i dunno being reformed is a lot more based than modding the character to suit your vision of them

I'm going to play Baldur's Gate 1 EE.If I want a brain dead human fighter character, should I go with Fighter/Berserker or Paladin/Cavalier? I'm probably not going to dual class.Also, should I obsess over the starting scores or can I just get something decent and roll along?
>>538567996true but shitposters ignore this
Farewell BG3. You made us all proud.
>>538575235Whoa stop it... or not
>g-good yes goodberry good I say this
>>538574130The way Mintharafag stomps his feet and calls Halsin a self-insert of the writer is so childish. Shadowheart has some orgy dream regardless of whether Halsin was ever met by the party in Act 1. She's a Sharran, group sex was encouraged by them. It's something she finds fun, take it or leave it, doesn't matter. His daily melties are so irritating.
>>538575539You're better off discussing it in /crpgg/ but I'll answer since I'm hereI'd go with Fighter/Berserker, and I'd skip dual class. Things can go wrong and it's too much for a first play imo. You should not obsess over the starting score, just go with whatever you first roll or something maybe 85+ if you want. But it's fine. Most of the scores aren't actually relevant for anything outside your class stat. For Fighter you'll want STR, DEX, and CON of course. You could tank everything else (CHA will get better prices but there's equipment that gets that to 18 or you just put someone with higher CHA in the top of the party.) But that's pretty soulless imo. You won't need to minmax like that, much better to RP a character and stick with that.Early game is *rough* and you absolutely will be one-shotted by wolves and shit. Ranged is powerful, everyone should carry a ranged weapon. Casters with CC especially Sleep will overpower, and by the end of BG1 you'll be around level 8, then BG2 you can import that character to continue on into godhood.Ask in /crpgg/ if you have any questions, I just come here to talk about goodberries
>Take it or leave it, doesn't matter.almost 50,000 people disagree
>>538576287Oh boy, 50k incel spergs compared to the 15 million people who bought this game. That sure is the majority
If a cambion had appeared to Arabella when she was Kagha's captive, I beg she'd have done anything the cambion wanted to be freed. A real missed opportunity on Larian's part. But perhaps Real Gamers can fix that.
Big H beat both Sharties and Mintharatranny. And they cannot cope!
Real life Minthy.A ruthless corporate ceo. Half her success is being hardworking, but the other half is extortion and blackmail of her competitors. She does love you in her own way and your relationship is strong, but she's got some issues, mostly because her mother was a psychopath and she's trying to not be like her but old habits die hard. She encourages you to be the best you can be and she gives you an important position in the company, and it's actual work not a nepobaby position. She's demanding but in a way that actually gets you to improve and is ultimately good for you. She has trouble relaxing, and will literally say "but our enemies...I mean competitors still draw breath" when you ask her if she wants to take the weekend off to go to the lake. But when you do convince her to take a moment off, she has an affectionate side, and says she feels alurlssrin for you and you cuddle by the fireplace with nice books and expensive wine.She values loyalty, reliability, honesty, and effort. She would much rather you try and fail, than never try. She would much rather you try and fail and tell her than lie about it. You don't have to master every aspect of business and the corporate world, but you do have to try and do what you can. If you try and fail, she would be encouraging. But if you lie about it, that's a short route to her breaking up with you, since the whole reason she likes you is because her world is full of backstabbers on the corporate ladder and you might be someone she can trust and be open with for a change. if you're not honest, then why bother.She wants kids, but not right away. Her career and you are her focus at the moment. She has a ton of peer reviewed research journals about the degree to which psychopathy is hereditary and how to raise kids if your own parents were bad examples. To her, parenting would be something new to excel at and be better than her own mother at. You would have to be the lighthearted nurturing parent.kino waifu.
>>538576560why does mintharatranny never post about minthara? she doesn't deserve to be associated with him
>>538576918Now he did. His cringe fanfiction. The drow values loyalty, reliability, honesty LOL
Can you imagine typing something like that?
minthara poisons you without your knowledge or consent
>>538576879based we love minthara
>>538576879Very nice. This place needs more positive waifu discussion. Shitposters are going to jump at the chance to ridicule you because they are post-ironic empty husks with no love. Ignore them. I will always approve of posts like this.

Why did they make shart a mutt instead of a full elf?
>>538579630Elves can't grow pussy hair, and they needed pussy hair to make shart more masculine as part of making her the troon acceptance character, same reason she gets nocturne and cucking and lesbian shit. Romance for reddit.
>>538579630Because Astarion is full elf
>>538579768no woman in the world has a bald pussy naturally lmao
>>538579830astarion should have been the halfie so he could be hairy and have a little bit of a bara aesthetic going on.

>>538579989They shave it because hair is masculine. Pussy, legs, armpits
>>538580001No gross ew

>>538580189I agree. Halsin is especially gross. I don't get why Shadowheart is lusting after him. She has no taste in men.

man he's still crying about big bad halsin
they made him too perfect
>>538580968Astarion still tries to attack your elf character during reverie for some reason, so that's not it.
>>538581561the bg3 devs said so though
>>538581513Needs more hair and muscles
>>538580326As a lesbian, I usually bring Halsin so he can gape me and Shadowhairy both while we eat out the Drow girl. It's just a kind of fun thing to do, it isn't a thing unless you make it a thing.
>lesbian >doesn't romance karlach >brings along a man for sexSome one is lying
>>538581695agree on the muscle but not the hair
>>538580968>>538581561its because they already made animations for astarion sneaking up on shart for a showcase but shart had a regular sleeping animation instead on an elf meditation one. they realized they fucked it up too late so instead of remaking the animation they just switched shart to a half elf
>>538581702>As a lesbian

>>538582774I hope that he gets cucked a second time and ropes himself, Larian's trying to make every romance feel unique just don't romance the ex cultist and move on
What's he smirking about, /bgg/?
Having a big strong gf like karlach seems fun, you could cum inside her and fall asleep on top of her and really sink your body inside of her without it being to heavy. Because you know normal women are petite and that would be really uncomfortable for them.
