nowhere/my tavs relationship with gale mostly just

- im just trying to be nice i dont want to fuck dude can you chill out

- yeah i know, i'm magic too buddy. Yeah i know, still magic. Yeah. I Know. I Am Made Of Magic. Please.

- i want magic loredump but i am begging you to shut up about your ex man it's honestly almost depressing how badly you fumbled quite literally the multiverses baddest bitch

(im still in act 1 no spoilers)

making an edit to this now that i know things: mystra when i get you. when i get you mystra.

i do think nowhere still thinks gale is kind of pathetic and gale does flirt way too much for their taste but like. hes a victim

#bg3 #baldurs gate 3 #oc tag #nowhere #tav #bg3 tav #bg3 gale #disclaimer of i dont care if you like him hes like Fine I Guess #but nowhere is thoroughly annoyed #their relationship is like some white nerd boy who has a chip on his shoulder about being a nerd abt this specific thing #and you who grew up with the thing casually but still know a lot and hes like omgggg a gamer girl? and is rly weird about it #and like hes mostly harmless about it and you kinda just wanna be casual friends still to talk about your niche mutual interest #but youre starkly aware of the fact that he has a thing for you sometimes and its just kinda like. mm. ok. moving on #also the chip on his shoulder thing about being a nerd but you have like Actual Problems #this seems so specific but its a thing id witnessed and experienced a lot when i was a Teen Girl [pre transition] #bg3 spoilers #???? #idk what constitutes spoilers its fairly early game stuff afaik #bc im still in act 1 #bg3 posting

wait that's so cool that the durge narration takes into account paladin oaths??!!!

#chelle.txt #bg3 spoilers #(kinda) #dark urge: agarwaen #the narrator dismissed my guy's oath as a ''some faded instinct. what does it even stand for?'' #wwowoweee #man i rly appreciate all the detail in this game hokey smokes 😭🙌🙌

here's a quick rundown on astarion: gay vampire spawn (not a vampire. like a demo version vampire. a "lesser" one but don't let him hear that) who has been kept for 200 years by his master as a slave. guy (who was an actual vampire) carved him up, tortured him and forced him to lure victims into his manor. astarion has been abused in so many ways i'd hit some sort of character limit if i listed half of them. he was only allowed to feet on rats and small vermin in the sewers. poor little meow meow astarion is now free due to [game story] reasons and seeks power and revenge -- he's an edgy fuck with a lot of swag and no moral compass. bro is a menace and loves causing problems on purpose. [slight spoiler] he will literally try to suck some of your blood like a day or two after you meet him and unless you succeed a skill check he'll just keep doing it until you die. if you resurrect yourself afterwards he'll go like "ooooh ooopsie sowwy! i wouldn't kill you if i knew you'll be back teehee can we forget about this? ;) <3 don't fucking kill me". he's such a good fucking whumpee you don't even know. it's insane. i don't want to ramble but he's almost everything i've ever wanted from a character like this in a large scale rpg. [slightly bigger spoiler] despite being the go-to "fuckable" character who everyone finds hot as hell (both in-universe and online) he's HORRIBLY traumatized by his sexual experiences from when he used to be a slave and when you romance him a good portion of his storyline revolves around trying to make him realize that he's more than just a slab of very attractive meat. he hides his feelings behind a facade of "evil tumblr sexyman-esque" mannierisms and getting to finally peel it back and see him for the poor wet cat that he is is so fucking satisfying. [an even bigger spoiler] i loved watching him cry when he finally gets to confront his former master. pristine content. there's so much more to his character (and this game in general) but if you ever need to justify spending full price on a new videogame release, there's nothing better than bg3. if i could choose one game to beam directly into the brain of each whumpblr user, it'd be this one.

Okay so i already loved him from the very little information i had about him, but this is so delicious

I saw some pics of bad scars which are always hhh and heard that he is a whumpee but i didn't know the extent and now i think ive collected a new blorbo

You are telling me he meets his old master at some point...... and he cries..... and hes all sad....... he rly was made for tumblr but especially me youre telling me he has white hair and is a vampire twink who was a slave and hurt and traumatised and he has incredible sad wet cat energy and he only has a flimsy layer of confidence and absolutely no idea what morals are. i knew i needed to know more you have to understand my knowledge of the game stopped at the bear sex scene like that is it and yet i somehow always find the most pathetic little men no matter what in any media i could not give a shit about any of the rest i will consume the entire thing just to know the exact extent of his sad little life

Also i wish i had the opportunity to even consider buying a full price new release no matter how good the game is there is no world in which id be able to pay for that. Also idk about the gameplay either it seems very story oriented roleplay and almost dating sim-ish? Not a huge fan of those in general its gotta have more gameplay than walking around and basically watching a movie, but, again. No idea about anything, maybe it has incredible gameplay and i just dont know. Dont tell me if it does itll just make ms sadder bc that would absolutely make me wanna play it myself. Its kinda funny honestly the longer i spend not knowing anything the crazier everyone seems to me both online and irl. Its like im living in a separate world, i know no one who hasn't played this fucking game fjfhskhfd

#asks #anonymous #that lasts part wasnt a read btw im glad its such a good game #im so used to new releases costing a whole lot of money while being complete dumpster fires #its just actually amazing bc I'm usually the guy who knows everything thats going on Especially in the gaming world #and now im just here like #hey ive been seeing this lil vampire dude a lot lately? no fucking clue who he is but i hope he endures torture today :) #thank you for the ask! #and the tiny explanation #you rly know what i like and came ready with all the whumpy bits #appreciate it greatly #all i need to know is that he is so sad and whumpable and traumatised and looks fantastic in pain

i finally finished bg3 for the first time and am now wondering what your thoughts are on the ending/epilogue.

i kind of got lucky because i romanced gale (which gave him and my tav exactly the ending i was hoping for) and my tav's best friends were wyll and karlach so their joint epilogue ending was cool as well. but beyond that, i feel a little empty :( i could say lae'zel also kind of got closure for me, but astarion just had to run off screaming because the sun hurts him now and the others didn't even say anything. the moment before you head out for battle where all your allies say one last thing about you honestly felt more emotional to me than the moment you last see your companions.

i think a little celebration at the end where you could talk to the characters one last time would be cool but i wish we at least got DAI-style narration over pictures, just to know how everyone is doing (and i feel like that wouldn't be too hard to make?). it's like i got ripped out of the story at its storm-like climax and not at the "clouds parted, sun out: we get to finally go to sleep without worries" ending i'm used to in pretty much all media. idk if it's just me though.

NO IT IS NOT JUST YOU…. man i had so much to say abt this when i first beat the game but apparently i put it NOWHERE except into my best friend’s brain. so lemme see what i can say.

i also got the karlach and wyll in avernus ending and i rly liked it, that felt like a solid ending. nicely wrapped up their quest lines. but that was rly it?? nothing happened with shadowheart, the only thing i remember is her commenting that we’d be seen as heroes in baldur’s gate if we stayed. i had to convince lae’zel not to run off on me because i didn’t free orpheus, and i was mostly satisfied with that bc it seems like it opened her up to truly find her own path in life. i fucked up gale’s bc i didn’t really process the mystra deal so i told him to leave that damn crown in the water, and he kinda went “i guess that’s for the best” and that was like, the end of it.

so chronologically i ‘finished’ gale, lae’zel, and shadowheart, and then i got the astarion scene where he runs off because of the sun before karlach and wyll’s final scene. my literal love interest was in so much sudden pain that he had to flee the scene, and i didn’t get a single dialogue option to respond with? nothing but one companion making a smart mouthed and/or indifferent comment? and i couldn’t go after him bc that was immediately followed up by karlach’s final scene (which only had wyll and halsin present, for some reason). yeah you could say i was unhappy LMAO and that’s not even to mention his actual epilogue which - spoilers - is maybe two minutes of dialogue in an unknown location that doesn’t even discuss his hasty exit and feels barely more than a chat between friends. and now even THAT’S bugged 😭

anyway i think you’re so so right, i absolutely think we needed a final companion get together like in dai. they literally in the end dialogues talk about going to a tavern or something and i think had we gotten that instead of the disjointed scene on the shoreline it could’ve felt more conclusive and satisfying, bc it did feel very abrupt overall

also i think there was actually meant to be epilogue slides at some point? that could be a rumor though idk but that would’ve been nice too bc as it stands the only companions that i have any knowledge about post-game are astarion, wyll, and karlach. three out of nine people i had recruited. it’s weird! it’s disappointing! i came out of my first time beating the game mostly underwhelmed because act three felt so messy to get through and there wasn’t much of a payoff. i definitely see why so many people don’t finish act three…

anyway i’m typing all this in a car rn so i hope it makes sense but tldr you are not alone!! the ending/epilogue was largely unsatisfying for me as well 😔

#ty for giving me an excuse to talk abt this lol i can’t believe i never did… #bg3 #bg3 spoilers #anon #asks

[galaxywhale]

still don’t rly know most of the characters in bg3 + have tried to avoid spoilers abt their stories but it’s also kinda like do I like this character more just bc I’ve actually interacted with them more or do I like them more 🤔

#I think it’s just too early to have proper opinions on them :’) #but also #wyll my beloved #grem plays bg3 #he’s also kinda making me want to make a warlock ngl

bg3 spoilers

but i had a thought... im a sucker for the main char having a good breakdown moment yknow? and i kinda wish we had that here like, specifically yknow when you accidentally "walk in" on the Emperor? and he's all woe is me

i rly RLY wanna be able to just fking SCREAM at him...

like, Tav [in my case at least] is just some random person having to save the damn world just cause they were at the wrong place at the wrong time i guess...and it's like..I want them to go feral about it.. fuck the Emperor and his constant spam about the worms and shit, fuck him intruding into your damn head all the time, why is it all about him? it's about them now, GET OUT OF THEIR HEAD >:I

#cmdr's log #bg3 spoilers #I JUST WANT MY CHARACTER TO BE ABLE TO GO BATSHIT OK?? ty

[sirotras]

i have. FINALLY. finished my first playthrough of bg3

a couple thoughts under cut, only very vague spoilers

overall, LOVE the game, fantastic, ill be playing through about a million more times

there were a couple things in the endgame that bothered me, just some things that. seemed like they werent really necessary

the ending is also very. abrupt. i think it would have been nice to have a bit more of a denouement?

like. just a little scene where you all have a moment to take a breath, chat with your companions, (or maybe a little thrown together party? just something would have been nice i guess)

especially bc not all of the companions have a little scene at the ending? which makes it feel like. did i miss smth? do some of you rly have nothing to say after all that??

idk, as is it just feels kinda like your left hanging?
