[BG3] Beaten the game! and adding final party fashion
Happy Hogswatch
Freed Orpheus - ended up letting my PC get illithid, wish one of the options could've been 'Please, I trusted you - please trust me' - yeah, Emperor would've still gone off with the netherbrain because that's a bridge too far for him but still gives you that roleplay option
Happy Hogswatch
and I can Completely understand why Astarion would want to downgrade to friend for a while since that's a big change
Happy Hogswatch
had Karlach go with Wyll to Avernus, and convinced Gale to leave the fucking crown alone
Happy Hogswatch
(not letting Mystra have it, and keeping him from stepping on the rake again)
Happy Hogswatch
honestly Wyll and Karlach makes me wish they had some of the party members romance each other if you didn't hit their romance flags
Happy Hogswatch
I may replay with someone else getting squiddy
Rama
brotentacle
Happy Hogswatch
but says a lot about Astarion's growth he is willing to stay with you at least at friends, and promises to be honest if it doesn't work out
Happy Hogswatch
Gale's final set up
Happy Hogswatch
Astarion in a stylish archer's hat as I made him more a bowthief
Happy Hogswatch
(Sinful red on white dye)
Happy Hogswatch
Jaheria, Green and Green and Dun dyes in pure druidic gear
Happy Hogswatch
Lae'zel, using the deep liliac which made her stuff gold, felt like it's fitting in contrast to the Gith's silver that's loyal to Vlaakith
Happy Hogswatch
half-plate, got saverok's helm but it's hidden, dyed in selune colors
Happy Hogswatch
Wyll in Lush Burgundy - elven chainmail to give him defense without interferring with his spellcasting, ans a bitchin' hat that adds his charisma bonus to his attack rolls
Happy Hogswatch
Deep Amethyst and giving him Saverok's armor because
Happy Hogswatch
and Karlach
Happy Hogswatch
Halsin is skipped because I gave him a +2 chain mail and hadn't used him ever
Happy Hogswatch
My big quibble is I feel like instead of running to join the netherbrain, he should've went "Fuck it, I'm doing it myself" and either getting slain or dominated by the Nether brain
Happy Hogswatch
(the latter still gives him as a boss fight - or rather give him a few turns of dancing around before getting annhilated
Happy Hogswatch
Otto's Irresistible Dance is ridiculous in this game
Happy Hogswatch
but yeah, Act 3 definitely feels rushed
Happy Hogswatch
lot of bugged quests (the toy bomb quest, Yenna) some really poorly thought out stuff (the haunted house with how the poltergeist work different from every other invisible-turning enemy in game and casting see invisible is treated as aggro)
Rama
Act 3 is a mess but points for ambition, is my opinion
Rama
And yeah you'd think Emps would have a plan B other than "give up"
moontouched
yeah i think this is standard for larian
moontouched
as i recall they had to really polish up the last half of their other games afte rrelease too
Happy Hogswatch
yeah, that's what I'm hearing too
Happy Hogswatch
god damn those stupid ghosts aggro even when I was outside the house due to having see invisbility on, even when they couldn't reach me
Happy Hogswatch
I definitely wish for the glam because the Helldusk armor is just Ugly
Happy Hogswatch
there's way to do intricate evil armor, this one is just too busy and doesn't dye nicely
Happy Hogswatch
(only death really in the finale is Orthon but he's a devil, so he'll just pop back in Avernus piss about missing out on fighting a dragon
