Howl gets all the love around here but Mr. Pazu Castle in the Sky is criminally under-appreciated. he’s absolutely TINY and ready to throw hands. his arch-nemesis is mark hamill. he falls through the roof of his house (twice). he’s incredibly competent. he has like ten concussions. he feeds doves and plays the bugle every morning. he wants to have an adventure. he wants to honor his father’s memory. he wants to prove himself. he wants to protect his new friend. (no matter what it costs. no matter how they hurt him. “Sheeta means everything to me.” he will shield her with his life every time.) he packs a single fried egg as a snack while on the run from pirates. he’s building an airplane in his basement.
I have some FEELINGS about Astarion’s updated kiss…
So when the really nice-Intimate— kiss was released I was playing in act 3 after killing Cazador and having our moment in the graveyard. So my brain was like oh yeah this makes sense he’s actually had time to process things and start to feel comfortable with Rexander. It was nice.
But god damn it Larian dropped the ball I think for how careful they were about crafting Astarion’s arch to be about his healing process.
I reloaded to run through the confession scene again bc I’m writing something and needed the dialogues. Immediately after admitting that intimacy brings up these terrible feelings for him and that he doesn’t know what continuing this relationship will look or feel like the updates kiss feels wrong here.
I wish that they had kept it so that before killing Cazador you still had that really short almost awkward kiss that he gives you. Because that feels more like… getting to understand what safe intimacy looks like if that phrase makes sense. It feels more appropriate after explaining to mc how he was feeling and what he’s struggling with.
I don’t get me wrong Larian have done some thing amazing and I know coding and the such is a difficult juggle process. But I believe I’ve said before I would LOVE to see progression instead of just overwritten things. Would make it feel much more realistic and immersive. Because this particular what is said and what is done by a character breaks that immersion a little in this instance.
