Me: "Shadowheart you're bae but literally everything about Shar sounds suss af."

Playing as a Lolth-Sworn Drow-Cleric I'm more like “Bae, please stop the children games, and let's start an even weirder cult together.”

I started a Selunite cleric play through and needless to say we did not hit it off at first lol

[–] harald_im_netz@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yikes, so you

Spoiler about Act 2!probably did not let her kill the Aasimar?

[–] BolexForSoup@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Spoiler tag didn’t work!

Haven’t gotten there yet but it’s playthrough 2

[–] harald_im_netz@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah damn, it works wonderfully on my instance. I've figured, that this does not work properly on all instances :-(

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I think it probably works across instances, more likely it's whatever app they're using that doesn't implement it properly. Many apps are also still failing to implement the instance agnostic links, eg /c/baldurs_gate_3@lemmy.world should be a link to this community from within the viewer's instance.

Yeah... I'm just rolling with it and trying to sound enthusiastic while she tells me about her weird cult.

If the devs didn’t want me to reload the game, they’d have made it so I couldn’t save in conversations and combat (at the very least). Clearly they were cool with it as part of the intended play experience, so I see no reason to be apologetic about it.

[–] harald_im_netz@feddit.de 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Definitely no need to. Let the people play as they want.

I'm "save-scumming" on my first playthrough. But I'm really looking forward for my "just roll (pun intended) with the flow"-playthrough aswell!

[–] funktion@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My approach is basically: One playthrough for the story I want. One playthrough for the story the game gives me. One playthrough where I just be an evil fucking bastard.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

What about the other 12 playthroughs?

[–] hubobes@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I literally say all the wrong things. Basically everyone I met is dead (I killed them) and I already lost Astarion permanently. But it is still a lot of fun.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's an amazing way to play. Making mistakes, messy run, but it feels real.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Just don't tell him about save scumming.

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Am I the only one that finds her insufferably annoying?

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

That was Lae'zel for me - Shadowheart was way nicer, and after some time I don't see anything annoying anymore :)

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There was a post suggesting she has some autistic tendencies, so that might explain her social difficulties.

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That doesn’t excuse her being insufferable. I’m autistic. The label doesn’t entitle being obnoxious.

I’ve seen your comment history, you might want to roll that back kiddo.

[–] MindSkipperBro12@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Damn dude, going through peoples comments after they made a one word response?

My point still stands.

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] MindSkipperBro12@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And in that case, we’re both right.

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not if we’re going by comment history. Seems like everyone disagrees with most everything you say. And if this is any indication of character, you’d be wrong and I’d be right here. But I don’t honestly care what you think, so they pretty much nullifies the entire thing anyway.

Enjoy your day.
