I've played through Baldur's Gate and I know nothing about Shadowheart because I killed her right at the beginning on my only playthrough xD

[–] TheMinions@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

She adds a lot! I would highly recommend replaying. She ended up being my favorite companion.

Second only to Mama K.

Its a Larian game, the fully voice acted cast is too big for one playthrough. DOS2 requires 2 runs to hear everyone. BG3 requires 3 (2 origin characters and 1 durge run).

[–] TheMinions@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

I agree.

I did one Tav run, want to do a Gale origin, and just got to the Druid Grove with my Durge.

Intentional or being honorable and not save-scumming?

[–] Anchorxiety@reddthat.com 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Intentional. I was roleplaying a slightly evil character and I killed her to take everything she had!

I was selectively merciful and generous.

Chaotic neutral murderhobo in other words...

Embrace that dark urge, buddy.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

I don't think murder for convenience and self gain is a neutral trait even if you only do it as a sometimes treat

[–] TheMinions@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 months ago

So you roleplayed like a murder hobo? I mean, valid.

I would try another go round myself, just to see what I missed!

I missed a whole swathe in the underdark section of Act 1 during my first playthrough.

I've done that once. Was playing as Bae'zel and Shadowheart was being racists, so she got what she got. An in person meeting with Lady Shar.

[–] teft@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

I do that sometimes if i play as a lolth sworn drow. I skip grabbing her from the pods and then she’s banging on the doors at the ruins. Then if you provoke her by getting closer when she tells you to stop she’ll fight you.

[–] vzqq@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

And good too. She’s an evil whiny bitch. Lae’zel is where it’s at. And Astarion of course.

[–] psud@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago

I have done the romance bits with all of them. Lae'zel is the most fun, Gale is the sexiest, Shadow is all promise then cut to the morning after

an evil whiny bitch

I feel personally attacked. Can we avoid splash damage in the future?

[–] vzqq@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Why do you feel personally attacked?

[–] dansemacabreingalone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Describes me too well. Why do i always have to explain the joke?
