Amazing how fast you can go through this game the second go around, almost done with Act 2 and I’m only 40 hours in.

Shaved like 20 hours off my playtime thus far by having a grasp of everything.

Astarion is really THAT b****.

Played an hour this morning. It’s aight

They got Sam and Frodo

Judging this game based on an hour is like judging s***by sticking the tip of your pinky in some p****.

Relax man I had to go to work

The hells*

This dumbass Zevlor just HAD to jump down off the gate when he coulda just stayed up top and used range....

Zevlor made it to act 3 in my game but Orin had a surprise for him

Running this with 2 other people and it’s mad fun. I played like 5 hours solo before that and in a group is definitely the move. The only thing that sucks is less character interactions but everything moves so much faster.

started an evil karlach playthrough. only bad b****es remain in the camp. karlach, laezel, shadowheart, minthara, astarion.

Damn missed wave 1 Q12024 for the physicals, wave 2 Q2 it is then

Damn so they really expect you take BOTH routes to Moonrise or just 1?

I went through the Underdark but skipped the Mountain Pass and was only ~lvl 5 when I reached act 2.

It’s a bit awkwardly worded and handled, that part of the game.

Do all of the Underdark and the Githyanki Crèche in the Mountain Pass area — you can go back to the Mountain Pass when you’re in the Underdark.

The major cut off point is the elevator in the Grymforge in the Underdark — once you go into that, Act 2 starts

Make sure you do the Githyanki Crèche if you haven’t, really good bit of content. Especially with Lae’zel in party

Edit: Damn just read your post about being in Act 2 now. Hopefully you did the Crèche.

Evil Karlach is funny as s*** she’s probably the most “good” character in terms of alignment

coop is fun as f*** when you play with the right people

How I dealt with the Steel Watch: Murdered the gnome architect and stole the codes, gave Astarion an invis potion and bombed the reactor while everyone was inside

Dark Urge 4ever

im still scared to go back and play again

How lol

Something about the structure of this game gives me that same sort of Resident Evil style replayability. Obviously RPGs tend to be some of the most replayable style of game’s, but the immersive sim elements of it give it that little extra.

The fact that this massive ass game also has (legit well done) 4 player co-op on top of everything else is f***ing mind boggling.

Ngl act 2 hasn’t been amazing for me thus far im playing it pretty straight as a vengeance paladin but it seems a lot more linear (both map- and quest-wise) compared to act 1 and I’m just ready to get to baldurs gate at this point - have a feeling this 2nd act will hit a lot different with my next evil character

For the vets, I’ve just reached the entrance to the shadowfell after the gauntlet of Shar and I’ve already murdered a few of the cronies at moonrise tower. roughly how long is this next section, and is it the last (still have this and the final confrontation with Ketheric) before I move on to act 3?

SPOILER WARNING: I don’t know why my spoiler embeds aren’t showing for me?

||Gauntlet of Shar is about 2-4 hours worth of content in and of itself. A few puzzles and boss battles throughout. Important point: make sure you’ve done everything in Moonrise Tower you needed to do - I.E. rescued the Tieflings/Gnomes before you fully complete all of the Gauntlet of Shar. It should prompt you (I think) at the very end of the Gauntlet before entering the final scene there.

After that, the final bits back at Moonrise Tower is another hour or so, I’d say. Then the game moves you into Act 3.||

Personally I really like Act 2 — I think the reason I do is because it’s so linear and character focussed. Shadowheart is my favourite companion so I really enjoy this run of the game.

Plus, I think it’s kind of intentional from the devs — Act 2 is linear, dark, vast, and gloomy. Act 3 goes into Baldur’s Gate which is densely populated and gives you freedom to just run around the city.
