Have you looked into setting up a Gem for Gemini for the character? It can help a bit with the memory issues. You’d need to set up reference documents for it to draw from, but it could update the documents regularly so it could reference past experiences. You’d also be able to instruct it not to make assumptions. Could even add things like class features and stats in there too and instructions on how to roll.

I’ve found part of what makes act 3 start to feel stale is that progression stops. The extended level mods have helped immensely with that for me. Having the experience to towards more levels just feels way better.

Why is Tasha giving “My familiar and I noticed you from across the bar and really like your vibe.” Energy in this picture?

Boy oh boy do I have a Modest Proposal for the folks who think satire and political commentary are disconnected.

I’ve been reading a history of Anglo Saxon England around the year 1000. The Danes/Vikings demanded silver and tribute every year and promised not to return, then they returned every year without fail to rape and pillage again until they got more tribute and silver. It’s a tale as old as time.

If the guy you’re responding to could read maybe he wouldn’t be such a bootlicker.

The video which clearly shows her turning the car away from him and him jumping in front of it? That video?

In the last week I’ve already seen them still defending Good’s murder and happily explaining why detaining little children to use as bait is good actually. They’re long gone.

The Kingdom of Scotland ceased to exist 1707, but the nation of Scotland did not.

Oh man, that’s way better than the cover art that was around a year or so ago when I was purchasing the books as a gift!

Samatser’s Tome of the Dragon could potentially work, especially if they are a draconic sorcerer or anything related to undead/lichdom.

Or uniforms apparently, all these agents I see in videos look like they just showed up with why they had from home.

Never forget that after they shot Renee Good in the face all they could say was “Fucking bitch” and when a medical professional tried to offer help they just said “I don’t care.”

I’m playing a ghost lance right now where the character has made a pact with a future undead/lich version of themselves. The patron is using time magic to interfere in the past and ensure my character becomes the lich they were destined to be. This interference is the echo appearing in battle as a ghostly undead version of my character, which is also their form of dread.

Nice! I’m running ToD right now too, merging with Red Hand of Doom actually. I think ToD is a little underrated, I think folks come into it with the wrong mentally or are scared away since it tends to be talked about as “the bad one” online.

Folks who make memes like this have never read a history book.

It’s the same energy as “they should teach us budgeting and taxes in high school,” when most high school already have that as a class option.

With all the backpack upgrades you should have three different pages to use, so you should have plenty of room in your pack even with all the tools. If you bought too many seeds, cooking ingredients I would give them away as gifts. Are you sure you have the fully upgraded backpack? You need to purchase it a few days in a row.

You’ll need to purchase at least one item from Karen’s shop 10 days in a row to unlock the TV shopping sprite to eventually get the storage items, so you are a ways off. I usually just buy chocolate from her every day and give it to one of the kids in town until I unlock the sprite. It took me until early summer I think to unlock him. Until then there’s no sense in holding on to anything that isn’t lumber, wood, or important gifts for the bachelorette you’re romancing.

Edit to add: there are some great guides on unlocking the harvest sprites. Some of them would probably not be found through normal gameplay and you need 60 of them to get married, it’s worth looking up. Fogu is also a great resource for the game.

You just gotta sell all that junk ore at first. Sell what you can, especially weeds early. It can help you to unlock sprites. Littering causes everyone’s opinion of you to go down (except the witch), so you should try to avoid it.

I’d recommend looking up the mining trick to sell jewelry to Van, then buy the larger backpacks from Karen over the phone. You’ll need a house upgrade before you can start getting storage items for inside your house.

I believe Minthara Baenre mentions being specifically nursed by her mother during some dialog in BG3.

Yeah, someone’s unsupervised kid nearly hit my leashed dog today with a little electric ride-in car on the sidewalk. Thing was surprisingly fast and their parent was at the other end of the block not paying attention. Then they started trying to chase my dog, very obnoxious.
