After having watched me play BG3 solo for 2,100 hours (with occasional breaks for other games, obviously) my spouse suddenly decided they want to play BG3 with me. They're not a gamer and we've never played a video game together before for more than a half hour. Now we're on our second multiplayer playthrough.

I'm so happy about the sudden interest and their sincere investment, and I don't want to break the spell, but honestly I was kind of ready to play something else. ๐Ÿ˜†

I feel this. My spouse and my brother are both autistic, and they've decided BG3 is their comfort game. At least three nights per week, for coming up on three years, we sit down and play it together for a couple of hours.

I'm glad my partner and my brother get along and have fun, but FFS, let's play anything else.
