[Baldur's Gate 3, Act 1, dialogue screenshots from inside the Astral Prism after using the Planecaster] This is not the full dialogue because that would require a lot of screenshots (which I of course have). I just picked some pics that convey the overall tone […] [Original post on blorbo.social]

The Dream Visitor (a male Githyanki) is kneeling and offering a sword to Lae'zel, saying "I'm on your side. I have been since the very beginning."
There are three options for replying:
1) Get up - yuo won't die today.
2) Is this some kind of trick?
3) My venerable queen has spoken. You must perish.

Lae'zel is chose the last one.

After Lae'zel has stabbed the Dream Visitor with the sword, he looks up at her and says "I really thought you wouldn't."

The Dream Visitor is clutching his stomach with one hand, over the spot where Lae'zel stabbed him. He's still kneeling on the ground and looks up at Lae'zel, saying "So you are not to be trusted."

The Dream Visitor is now standing in front of Lae'zel. He's been bluntly informing Lae'zel of the situation she's in and telling her that Vlaakith wants her dead and now he finishes with "Since we are both dependent on your ability to survive that, you would do well to remember that without me, you would become a mind flayer."

Seriously, I'll never finish another run of #BG3 again, because I'll spend half my time playing with the photo mode 🙈 #BaldursGate3 #BG3PhotoMode

Baldur's Gate 3 photo mode pic of a smiling badger who is looking into the camera while standing on one hind leg, the other leg and front paws in the air, paws facing the camera. The badger is actually a druid in wild shape, but that still counts as a badger, right?

Someone please take the photo mode away from me, I clearly can't be trusted with it. #BaldursGate3 #BG3 #BG3PhotoMode #IzzyHands

Baldur's Gate 3 photo mode pic of Izzy, a hairy male dwarf who is dressed in a very skimpy fish-scale dress, showing a lot of cleavage and the whole length of his legs. The only thing the dress properly covers are his arms and shoulders, but I guess you could say he's decent. Izzy is lying on his side on a cow-hide rug, in front of a lit fireplace. He's leaning on one arm and looking into the camera, smiling.

Just Izzy and CJ chilling at the campfire, nothing to see here, move along. #BG3 #BG3PhotoMode #IzzyHands #CJIzzy #CalicoJack #OFMD

Baldur's Gate 3 photo mode screenshot, showing a dwarf that looks a lot like Izzy Hands and a half-elf that looks like Calico Jack (at least if you squint). They are relaxing next to a campfire that's not in the picture, but the glow of fire illuminates them. Both look at the camera, light smirk on their faces. Izzy is half-lying on his side, CJ is sitting next to him.

Minsc and my halfling paladin, posing and flexing their biceps. The paladin is dressed in pale pink armour and her red hair is on two buns and two long braids (the braids aren't visible in the pic, though). She's super cute.

The halfling paladin next to Withers. Withers is sitting on a chair, looking tired (as always). The halfling is looking at the camera, smiling and pointing at Withers.

The halfling paladin and her boyfriend Wyll, dancing in the reunion camp. They are wearing matcing armours, except that her armour is pale pink and Wyll's is grey and black.

The halfing paladin and her BFF Karlach, chilling against some barrels, looking very cool. Karlach is enjoying a pint of beer.

[Baldur's Gate 3, equipment-related Act 3 spoilers] I think I'm all set for the endgame of #BG3MyLittlePaladinRun. This equipment combination gives me AC25, every turn starts with enemies having disadvantage against me, they can't land critical hits, I can't […] [Original post on blorbo.social]

A Baldur's Gate 3 screenshot from a fight scene, showing a halfling paladin standing on top of a pile of dead / prone enemies, surrounded by seven enemies who are still standing. Most of them have a Radiating Orb on them.

I'm doing a #BG3 solo run, and this time I try to do it properly, without a wildshaped druid hireling as non-stop company. I do have all the origin characters in the camp though, and I do my morning yoga to get Longstrider, Aid etc. My Tav is a Halfling […] [Original post on blorbo.social]

Screenshot from Baldur's Gate 3, showing Wyll, who is a human, hugging a halfling and saying "There will be another time for us." Wyll is facing the camera and we can see him from chest up. All we can see of the halfling is the very top of her head, and that's how we know she has red hair.

[Baldur's Gate 3, Act 3, sort of spoilers (the Drow courtisans)] I've been waiting for my whole #BG3DrizztDoUrdenRun to get to this specific bit of dialogue. #BaldursGate3

Sorn Orlith: So tell me, do you want some roleplay, an unusual sensation, or perhaps... my legendary Menzoberranzan Love Trick?
Drizzt Do'Urden: Will you pretend to be Drizzt Do'Urden?
Sorn Orlith: Not again. Ahem, I mean - of course!
Sorn Orlith: I shall draw my twin scimitars - Twinkle and Icingdeath - and I shall slash twice.

[Baldur's Gate 3, Act 2, Gauntlet of Shar spoilers] I'm way past 2000 hours of #BG3 and only now did I find out that if one of the rats gets killed in the fight with Balthazar, the next time you meet the rats and speak to one of them, it's a lot more […] [Original post on blorbo.social]

A dialogue screenshot from Baldur's Gate 3.
Rat: My head's too full. It wants to burst - this is your fault. You slew my kin!
Rat: Fiend! Bloodspiller! Unworthy wretch! Attack one, and you make foes of ALL!
Drizzt Do'Urden: You're no ordinary rat, are you?
Rat: Very ordinary. But one of many - leave us be or we'll gnaw your rotten bones in the dark!
Rat: You maek my head ache. You make me miss things I never had!
Shadowheart: I'm not imagining it, am I? These rats seem to be getting more articulate.
Drizzt Do'Uden: You're upset about your fellow rats' deaths? I didn't expect such compassion from vermin.
Rat: I mourn them. I mourn me. It's your fault - you filled my skull with full of pain and dead mens' faces.
Drizzt Do'Urden: You're babbling - probably diseased. I should just put you out of your misery.
Rat. Then my misery becomes another's! More fear, more pain, more memories!
Rat: I remember hands. Why do I remember having hands?

I'm having a lot of fun with my latest #BG3 playthrough. I've got my male Drow fighter-turned-ranger (4 levels of fighter and then switch to ranger) and I'm playing on Balanced difficulty in order to manage most of the encounters solo. Well, not completely […] [Original post on blorbo.social]

A screenshot of Halsin kissing Karlach during the reunion party. Karlach is a mind flayer now. The kiss looks a bit clumsy, because Halsin is aiming it a bit too high. It looks like he's kissing her on the nose, except that she doesn't have a nose anymore, so the kiss lands on top of her tentacles, a couple of centimeters below her eyes.

Gotta love a Tempest Cleric ⚡️💙 (This was a combination of several things: the Tempest Cleric in question had Lightning Charges and Kereska's Favour: Bolts of Doom, in addition to the enemy being Wet. The spell was Chain Lightning.) #BG3 #BaldursGate3 #ShadowheartFullClericRun

A screenshot of BG3 battle. The battlefield is filled with dead enemies, my adventurer party has pretty much all of their hitpoints left and all of them are currently focusing on Spirit Guardians spell which grants them a spinning aura of radiant damage. There are two turns of the battle remaining and no enemies left to kill.

Because Lae'zel is not in Shadowheart's party anymore, she recruited a hireling in order to still have a War Cleric. Meet Nae'zel. #BaldursGate3 #BG3 #ShadowheartFullClericRun

A screenshot of Baldur's Gate 3's character level up screen, showing the half-orc hireling. His appearance has been changed so that his skin, hair and eye colour resemble those of Lae'zel. He has similar eye makeup and some face tattoos that were the closest thing there was to imitate the Githyanki markings. He's wearing Lae'zel's armour.

Me last night vs. me today around lunchtime 😅 #BaldursGate3

A screenshot of my Mastodon post from yesterday: ”I got so many new ideas for new playthroughs and character builds while playing, and I can't choose what to start next. Maybe I should keep finishing the existing campaigns instead. My Jack-of-all-Trades run with The Doctor and my Izzy Hands run (one of the very first campaigns I started over a year ago) are both in Act 2.”

A screenshot from my Notes, it’s a list titled ”Cleric run” and has the following characters and domains:

Shadowheart: Trickery

Lae’zel: War

Wyll: Light

Gale: Knowledge

Karlach: Tempest

Astarion: Trickery

Halsin: Life

Jaheira: Nature

Minsc: Light
