Triple A game devs really out there showing their asses, huh?

"BaLdUr'S gAtE 3 sHoUlDn'T bE tHe StAnDaRd"

And why the hell not? Why shouldn't players expect more than half-finished, bug-filled games with tons of microtransactions? Why should they settle for playing regurgitated copies of whatever games have been popular for the past ten years when they could be playing games that the devs were actually passionate about making?

When you have access to a bigger budget and more resources than Larian did when they made BG3, what's your excuse for shipping a broken, half-assed mess of a game?

In game I think Shar puts a curse on you when you try to pray to her as a Selûnite so I just imagine your Tav like: Please, Shar, forgive my girlfriend for indulging in the moon juice😞 and just getting zapped by Shar because she's petty

“Miss Shar, maam, please forgive my girlfriend for indulging in the moon juice 😞😞😞”

I can’t believe this is now in parts

Part 1, Part 2, Part 2.5, Part 3

"astarion/gale doesn't make sense because gale tastes so bad" ma'am do you know how many times in my life I've licked a nintendo switch game cartridge purely because I could

[clownbynatuure]

i started baldur's gate purely to romance astarion only to be immediately wooed by a silly man who won't stop talking about his ex and eats all my magic items,,, twirling my hair and kicking my feet over gale fr

Not love, no. What I had with Belynne Stelmane was much more than that. It was... unique.

[galedekarios]

if you are genuinely out there claiming that gale "succeeded" in everything he "wanted" by becoming a god and that's why it's a good ending for him, you truly are a testament to the slow and steady death of media literacy congrats lmao

I recently read some Wyll/Astarion content that focused in on the angle of Astarion starting out as very hostile to Wyll and some of that shit opened my third eye and now I can't stop thinking about this pairing I'm obsessed I'm crazy I'm CRAZY

I still like Gale/Astarion but the dramatic potential of Wyllstarion is unfuckingreal are you KIDDING me

Astarion being contemptuous of Wyll because he thinks he must be full of shit (dude can literally not imagine anyone being good for goodness sake), Astarion disliking Wyll because he went through a ton of shit and came out the other side as kind and outwardly stable instead of selfish and scared like him, Astarion HATING Wyll because he's the kind of man he would have dreamed about marrying when he was thirteen but now that childhood innocence and that version of himself is gone, are you guys hearing meeee

Eventually he comes around to thinking, fine, Wyll does actually believe all the heroic sanctimonious drivel he spouts, but he must be very naive and ridiculous then and that reality will surely come crashing down around him at any time! Any day now . . .

All I'm saying is imagine a canon where Astarion is stupidly in love with Wyll but also hates his guts for half the game until they come to really understand each other and Astarion realizes he was wrong about him

BECAUSE if he's wrong about Wyll, his whole worldview is wrong, people aren't inherently bad and the world isn't inherently hostile. And then he has to reckon with that and change as a person. Do you see what I'm sayinggggg

Ideal dynamic:

Wyll, moping after the tiefling party: "What? Come to see the fiend of frontiers finally put down a peg? I guess your wish has been granted."

Astarion: "I was actually going to say the horns really aren't a bad look on you, but now because you presumed I was going to be mean I'm going to be a HUGE bitch about this actually, yes"

I wanna animate this later

[oh-yeah-i-exist]

"This might be our last chance to share a kiss."

I'm so normal about this fictional man, I swear... People say "I love you;" Astarion Ancunín said, "We'd better survive the end of the world because I never want to stop kissing you."
