spitting up apple sauce you've held in your mouth at a weigh-in isn't comedy

Does Szarr Palace even make sense?

Think about it. Evil vampire lair is smack dab in the middle of the city of Baldur's Gate for hundreds of years and no one knows a thing? Even if you say to yourself, "well it looks vacant. maybe people just thought no one lives there?" Cazador has been there for hundreds of years.

How can a city not question what's going on there after so long?

But wait, people DO KNOW that a vampire is there: the Gur. So, if this rag tag group of people were able to track down the vampire in a short period of time, why hasn't anyone else over the hundreds of years? And since the Gur knew what Szarr Palace was since before the events of the game, why didn't they tell anyone?

If people do know about him living there, why hasn't he left his home during the daytime for all of that time? How could that not strike the people of Baldur's Gate as vampire behavior.

I just can't wrap my mind around this location.

What's one thing you'd change about a companion?

You wake up and you're working for Larian Studios. It's September 2023. BG3 is set to release in a month. What's one thing about a companion you'd change?

For me, it would be for Gale to keep his cat Tara at the camp and get that ring, even when he's not your player character. It just seems like a no brainer.

Is hardening Shadowheart just shooting yourself in the foot?

If you plan to rule Faerun as the leader of the Absolute, you are basically challenging all the gods as the leader of a new faith. Even when the Absolute was controlled by the Dead Three, multiple gods did what they could to intervene (Shar, Selune, Withers, Mystra, etc.) albeit indirectly.

If you hardened Shadowheart and convinced her to become a more devout follower of Shar, once the events of the game are over, wouldn't she and the rest of Shar's followers turn on you?

Their entire objective as stated by Shadowheart is to overthrow corrupt leaders and tear down false idols. Well... that basically describes us.

Or does the Absolute oddly align with Shar? Shar wants to return the universe to nothingness. In some sense, the Absolute robs people of their apostolic souls through ceramorphosis and effectively destroys everything.

Maybe it would be stupid of us to every think we could be an alley of Shar, simply because if she can betray her sister Selune, why wouldn't she betray us?

Which companion did you warm up to the most?

In most discussions, people say Daeran was the character that grew on them the most over the course of the game.

For me, it was Arueshalae.

In the beginning, I felt that Arueshalae was a bit boring. Her quest to overcome her demonic nature didn't really jive with my demonic path playthrough.

However, when told me about what it was like to actually become a demon it started to change how I viewed her. I wondered if she was worthy of redemption to be honest after hearing the things she had done.

Then I learned how much time Desna kept her imprisoned and I began to think she paid her penance.

Of all the companions, I found her story to be the most intriguing from a moral point of view.

Is Devil the worst mystic path?

When I heard this mystic path was in the game, I was excited. I thought it would be pretty major to the game honestly. But, as I played through acts 1, 2 and 3 - I didn't see this path at all.

I accidentally spoiled myself on a guide and when I saw what you had to do to get this path, I was genuinely shocked.

You have to play as a different mystic path and then convert to devil towards the end of the game.

For people that chose the devil mystic path.... was it worth it? How does it fair in terms of content compared to other mystic paths?

The most gut wrenching scene in the game?

What happened to Lann was just horrifying.

He was without a doubt the most dedicated to the tribe. He was the best hunter and worked like a dog to give them hope and to guide them to the surface.

That's why when Wendy took over the clan, I really wanted him to live.

I would have totally let him go, just like I did before in the maze. But, he refused.

Honestly, this kind of frustrated me. For someone who is Lawful Neutral, he was surprisingly... good? Why didn't he just sit down and continue meditating, leaving us with words of wisdom about how Wendy will lead herself to her own demise or how everything will work itself out in the end?

Instead he wanted to duel Wenduag to the death and was torn apart by his own tribe.

What did you guys make of this scene?

The hour long Haste spell from Grey Garrison spoiled me

You're telling me I have to go back to normal movement speed and one less attack move for the rest of the game? 😭

Nothing will beat that hour and a half long Haste spell

What thought went through your mind when you saw this for the first time?

I immediately thought she used mind control on him.

He was disrespected at Defender's Heart by fellow crusaders -> blamed Minagho at Grey Garrison -> fought against feelings for her -> then came to save her.

This line of events seemed super logical when you look at it in retrospect. But, I felt like it all happened so fast. And with them interacting a lot off screen as we battled through the fort, I thought it was entirely possible she mind controlled him and this scene was a misdirection to make us believe he was acting on his own accord.

Still haven't beaten Act 2, so I'm interested in seeing how this plays out.

If you fail a Will check when succumbing to demonic rage, only Wendy will back you up.

It's been five minutes since Lann said she's untrustworthy and yet she's already proven a more staunch ally than Seela or Cammy
