to be fair, most characters even good would be super uncool with a vampire/alien attacking them after being taken in as allies. That's a dealbreaker for any non-companion, so really it's metagaming to not kill them

[@jeepersmcgee3466]

I admire the hell out of the commitment to the one rule. If I'm truly making roleplay decisions and not metagame decisions, a vampire or alien attacking me at my own camp is a death sentence for them. But knowing they're followers who can be corrected, I never have the nerve

[@keithbos4506]

I love the guide luring him into the adventure. The flow chart was really funny

[@psivampire13]

The 2 low rolls at the start, and then the Miss on a 95% in the first combat. Also DEDA. 🤣

[@failedGraphics]

These comments are unreal. Having an actually friend show you how to play a kind of game you've never played before has a completely different vibe then having literal random strangers telling you your blind or dumb for missing things you never knew were possible. Tell me you guys don't have friends without telling me you don't have friends.

It's still backseating. People just mad she was a hypocrite

[@Lemorexp]

idk just feels weird to basically make him use her charcter that she created since refusing would be mad awkward and also at the ogre part he js wanted to leave and do something else but she forced him saying open the door multiple times idk man i just feel like she should let the dude play however he wants since there is no true right way to play bg3

[@_burningshadow_8010]

I dunno I kinda respect the kill on Astarion, the Owl bear cub was overkill but killing a vampire that just tried to attack you in your sleep is a pretty reasonable reaction. The lae'zel one was a bit silly as well. Considering she did not actively try to kill you, but it's still somewhat reasonable.

[@jwall1646]

Astarions choice was purely selfish. He could’ve continued hunting boars and other wildlife in the forest but gave into temptation. He will even outright kill you if you still let him bite but don’t keep him on a short leash. Lae’zel attacks only when she correctly sees that you’re beginning to transform into a illithid. Honestly a mercy compared to the pain of transforming and living the rest of your days as a tentacle slave.

@@jwall1646in his origin playthrough, he has a nightmare where Cazador mocks him and says he still has control over him. Astarion decides to see if he can break one of the rules, which is to feed on anything sentient. Should he have tried to feed on you without consent? Obv not. But it was a trauma-based decision, not purely “ooh what delectable snacks I have here”, and he respects the limit of feeding on enemies only afterwards The voice actor said he based Astarion on a stray cat that took him 2 or 3 years to befriend

[@jwall1646]

@@Hexer404 understanding WHY he’s evil doesn’t excuse THAT he’s evil. As you’ve just said “he decides” to use us the player for his own selfish goals, whether maliciously or not. Also I’m sure he’s just fine with only feeding on enemies as 1) it means keeping the rest of the party off his back and 2) I’m doubtful one’s morality comes through in the taste of blood. He’s a phenomenally written & voiced character, he just blows for 70% of the game if you’re not romancing him.

Been running dnd games for years and playing BG3 since it's Early Access was released way back when, I would give anything to experience this game for the first time again so I love seeing folk do just that. Loved the Travis Cameo 23m in as well, top tier. I am glad you have a guide who wants you to have an authentic experience but also the fact that they dictated your stats and didn't give you a better Dex score (esp as a barbarian) is killing me.
