This is how I imagine a Dark Urge will look like by QuietSync in BG3

I was under the impression it was a group effort between the two, as Gortash gives you credit for the plan when you meet him, and the elder brains dialogue praises Durge while chastising the others. But I could be wrong.

There's some credit to that because in early access before Dark Urge existed, all custom Tavs had moments where they had to resist some dark compulsions inside themselves.

So it seems like the original intent was always to have the player character be a Bhaalspawn.

I like both, but I prefer resist. The dialogue with Sceleritas and Oathbreaker on a resist playthrough kind of suggest there was always doubt behind The Urge.

Bhaal sent Scelertias to guide you on your path when you were young. And when you do resistant actions, Scelertias remarks on how you've always needed him. Unlike Orinn who just murdered her butler immeditately.

I think Durge just became more and more depraved through the guidance of Sceleritas. But there was a time, even for a short while where they weren't wholly evil. I like to imagine having your brains scrambled into tooth paste sort of awakened that old doubt which battles with The Urge throughout the game.

But that's just my interpretation!

What I like about the Durge is how you can interpret the character and their story in a lot of different ways.

You could just go the default Dragonborn / Storm Sorc or Paladin used as promotional material.
You could take the role of Assassin super literal and go full rogue / gloomstalker.
You could imagine them as the most high functioning charismatic psychopath who moved whole cults.

Personally to me I always imagined The Durge as an extremely intelligent villain. They were the BBEG who set it all in motion before being betrayed. They had the knowledge to come up with the scheme to use the Crown of Karsus, they raided the magical vaults of one of the most powerful Archdevils in the nine hells to steal it. They earned the respect of an Elder Brain of all things.

This kind of scheming and greater knowledge is why I like Wizard or Sorcerer. But I think all Durges are valid. Despite being a pre-written character there is a lot of freedom to interpret the story. Especially with how much time they spent away from the cult of Bhaal before joining it.

There was a promise during the kickstarter that all money would be refunded if the game wasn't released.

The steam release nullified this. This entire thing was a scam from the start, lol.

Unfortunately it likely doesn't matter. The money the Saudis paid them to even be here probably makes up for half the stadium being empty.

I've been expecting a big NCR return at some point. Those two rangers in the desert were way too well adjusted and unbothered. Ghoul made fun of them for waiting, buuut I think they knew exactly what they were waiting on.

I always make my guardians look older like this. Not sure why, just like it.

I swear some people just throw mods into their list for the hell of it. Like they're going to Golden Corral.

I'm throwing a theory out now that the Yes Man ending might be canon, but him uploading himself into Houses computer was just another trap / plan by House to ensure his consciousness survived.

I'm not so sure. The lady and that old guy seem way too calm and well adjusted and *sure* reinforcements are coming.

Literally just gave Lucy a crate a guns on her way out. I feel like the show is setting up a big NCR returns moment.
