This game was fantastic. It 100% is a landmine simulator though. Don't even get me started on the lava insta-kills.

But after 216 hours and 7 attempts, I finally finished the game!

Astarte fell to 60 HP in the final fight, and I'm just learning now that apparently that would have ended the run. 0_0

The fights in Act 2 were by far the hardest, and everything just got easier from there. In the final fight, no one died, and Astarte was basically just resurrecting my blood rat over and over. Arrow Spray is so broken, one-shotting everything in one turn.

It really did scratch the BG3 itch for me, which was nice.

Of my 7 resets, the first ~3 were basically just me not knowing the mechanics. Burning ground, poison clouds, etc. All of them were before level 5.

The next 3 were VERY depressing resets.

First: I made a post about this one, but digging a grave insta-killed the entire party...

Second: I warped back to Luculla Mines to see what it was like after escaping, only to be insta-killed by lava. I didn't notice it filled the map with lava. 

THIRD, and almost FOURTH: The Jareth fight.

Bairdotr leaves your party, you can't warp out, you can't use AoE arrows or spells because of the river???, and you start surrounded and low on initiative.

It almost corrupted my save for a FOURTH time. In this last run, I killed everyone except Bairdotr, and she used Retreat outside the map where I couldn't reach her. The fight wouldn't end, so I couldn't leave, and my last save was with her outside the map, meaning reloading did nothing.

Going invisible and stealthing didn't work either.

Until I finally found a really tiny pocket of space in the top right that ended combat.

Thank Astarte!

This was a really fun challenge for me, and I can't wait to try DOS2 Blind Honour Mode next!

Finished Act 1 today on my first play through in honour mode blind. Really enjoyed it all excited for what horrors await me in act 2. Still on my 5th attempt and these are all moments of extreme panic for me. There are probably more but these are the ones that caused the most panic.

First time playing this game, really enjoyed bg3 honour mode and figured id have a fun challenge doing it blind random hero honour mode in divinity. Currently on 4th run and my deaths have been, Hidden trap in inn basement, orc shaman fireball oil barrel, APPARENTLY NUCLEAR BOMB in random grave! All full party wipe one shots. I really am still enjoying myself but i have to know (without spoilers) will i just talk to a Rooster and it explode for 144k damage?
