love this for you

this time i'm playing a tiefling bard durge

resist route because i'm a weenie, i always tried to do evil playthroughs in the original bg games and failed to do so.

correct choice

gonna romance astarion this time and i have successfully gotten him to like me by having a giant masochist streak.

also correct choice

durge/astarion is very good

it took me all game last time for me to get a nice approval rating with astarion and now everyone likes me but karlach lmaoooo… i'll convince her.

the astarion/durge stuff is really good, yeah

am i a biased source? yes

it seems thematic!

it is!

they have some really good lines post-orin fight if you do his personal quest first

but yeah "oh sure just take all my blood, i hate myself and deserve it."

yesss astarion/durge is so good

I should get back to my playthrough of it

i also have the option to romance shadowheart, which i want to do eventually, but as a selunite.

this playthrough the one who likes me least is karlach

yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

she will like me eventually i'm sure, i'm barely into act 1.

have made 3 long rests so far… trying to get to level 5 or close before heading to the goblin camp, but i may have fucked up by talking my way through everything at the blighted village instead of fighting.

My husband started two new playthroughs when he finished his first.

i have a friend with well over 100 hours who has yet to get out of act 1 because he keeps starting over lol.

i am trying to decide if i want to progress further into the risen road or actually go to the goblin camp. i killed flind after making her attack the other gnolls, which earned yet more disapproval from karlach
