[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

She's a half-devil, not a demon, you planist

[–] Bunnylux@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

I mean, she's a cleric by default. Insanely useful no matter what your team composition is. And flexible enough to compliment any setup you want. What are you going to do, NOT use Guidance in your run!?

[–] EnderMB@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

She's also got a core storyline in a fundamental area of the map.

[–] Bunnylux@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I re-specced her as a life domain cleric and spammed heals, wouldn't have stood a chance without it

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Light and War are really strong. By either reducing enemy chance to hit, to not take damage in the first place, or ensuring your team gets those hits in, reducing enemy count and the amount of damage you can take.

[–] Seasoned_Greetings@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I mean, there's a necklace for guidance. Clerics are pretty useful though.

I just got to the sex scene with Shadowheart. Her white hair turned back to black for the cutscene lol

[–] zik@lemmy.world 42 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That's just how good you are.

You hit the bottom.

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 34 points 11 months ago (3 children)

People woefully underappreciate my big tiddy Gith girlfriend.

[–] Necronomicommunist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 34 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Honestly wasn't on the Githyanki train until Lae'Zel said something akin to "I'll claim what's mine one night soon". Then? Choo Choo.

[–] micka190@lemmy.world 45 points 11 months ago

Me: "Damn Lae'Zel, you don't have to be such a bitch constantly."

Lae'Zel: "You are competent, and worthy. Tonight, I will find you, and claim what is mine."

Me: "Yes, ma'am."

Which gith has big tiddies? 🤔

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 5 points 11 months ago

Relatively?

[–] VaultBoyNewVegas@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Agreed. Loved the sunset watching scene with her. Her character grows so much by the end.

[–] Toribor@corndog.social 30 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Pretty sure at least a million of those pets for Scratch are from me.

[–] hrimfaxi_work@midwest.social 5 points 11 months ago

I'd probably still be at the emerald grove if they hadn't limited the number of Scratch's pets per interaction.

Literally nothing could have prepared me for this being a thing.

[–] sneezymrmilo@lemmy.world 28 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Considering how long this game is. Those are seriously impressive numbers. Congratulations Larian on the success of probably my favorite game of all time.

[–] Seasoned_Greetings@lemm.ee 12 points 11 months ago (2 children)

If you haven't already, give divinity original sin 2 a try. BG3 was built on the back of a game just as complex and satisfying, with a ton of the same exact mechanics, that went under appreciated because Larian wasn't a big studio with a well known ip.

You can catch it on sale pretty regularly for like $5. I bought it on release back in the day and I still play through that game like once a year.

[–] sneezymrmilo@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

I've actually put several hundred hours into div OS 2. Its one of my fav games and the reason I was so excited about BG3. Larian is truly the GOAT.

Congratulations to Larian Studios and to the millions of players who enjoy their games.
And congratulations for an honest game-launch, without the shenanigans we often see from other companies.

[–] phoneymouse@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

I never played DnD. I bought it because of the rave reviews and it’s been fun. Glad to support real AAA without the upsell shenanigans.

[–] JimmyMcGill@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

My save must be bugged. Still haven’t managed to bang anyone. Not even Halsin despite a bunch of them saying they are interested.

[–] shadowSprite@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Halsin makes you wait til Act 3. Got to lift the shadow curse first.

Idk about most popular, just the one that occurs most naturally. I tried to get with Karlach and it never happened. I never tried to get with Shadowheart, but it still happened.

Edit: I wonder if this means Shadowheart has the most sexual partners of anyone anywhere, across all games and platforms.

[–] micka190@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I've literally only talked to Shadowheart when the game forces me to (wanted to romance her on a different playthrough), and if I ask her about our relationship after the goblin stronghold she literally goes on and on about how I'm her closest confident and that she's a completely different woman now. All the other NPCs also offered to fuck during the celebration, despite me being confrontational with some of them.

This is after all the patches to romance stats, too.

Wish they didn't throw themselves at the player's feet so hard, to be honest.

Minthy makes you climb a mountain of corpses first ❤️

There was a bug where Karlachs romance never materialized in Act 2 if you didn't do things in a specific order.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Is that fixed? I'm on my second playthrough and about to move to act 2.

two monster-girls

reject them, choose the half-elf

People hate living out their wildest dreams, I guess.

[–] Bbbbbbbbbbb@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Hey man, sleeping with elves and learning magic IS my wildest dreams, my next dreams are fucking the monsters or aliens

I don't use Steam, GOG, or Larian launchers to play the game. I also play off-line. I wonder how many people have completed the game but weren't counted.

[–] vlad76@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

She's the only human woman, so it makes sense that she'd be the most popular.

[–] scops@reddthat.com 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Well, half-elf. But yeah, pointy ears are a bit more appealing than green skin and short noses or red skin and horns, I guess. People are boring.
