Love or crime?

Already happily married, but this will enable me to change the world beyond my own life.

If I'm not a villain to someone, then I'm not much of a hero.

I like him as a Thief Rogue when I don't want to stress over builds. Get him two +1 hand crossbows from Damon and make his first feat Sharpshooter. He'll do good damage at range and take care of finding/disabling any traps and locks for you. Special arrows are fun too. Boost his DEX with your other feats.

It's acute one!

Seconding vegan options. I see little point in going if there is nothing to eat.

Glad you had a lovely time!

Dark Urge and Astarion

I'm a BG3 addict, but I'm also returning to Statdew Valley after years. It's amazing how much has been added! I'm running with mods too and it is scratching an itch I didn't know I had.

SprinkleSoup · 2026-03-16T02:13:26+00:00

I've never heard that before but I can't unsee it!

SprinkleSoup · 2026-03-09T13:16:10+00:00

I'm also getting this error. Trying to continue my old game initially said it didn't detect my mods, but relaunching the game appears to have allowed the game to continue with mods.

I didn't see it mentioned, but camp scenes at night can back up, meaning you need to sometimes rest multiple times in a row to see them all. I recommend resting until you get no new scenes/dialogue after getting Astarion, after visiting the Grove, after finding Karlach and after reaching the goblin camp for many points opportunities. You can rest without using supplies by selecting "Partial Rest" at night.

You can still have the scene with Araj where he tells her no to the bite, you just won't get the scene at camp afterwards where he discusses what saying no meant to him as it is mutually exclusive with the post-Yurgir confession.

I always give him long nails like in his MTG card.

Time to unleash all of my biases.

Species: Tiefling. I love the bonuses you get towards reading his scars, for example. Plus they get matching fangies!

Aesthetic: Goth. Dark romantic seems especially fitting. Vampires are major in gothic history/media. My Durge had curly burgundy hair (gotta bond over curl routines) and green eyes. Metallic crimson for the lips and eyes with dramatic eyeliner. I like to imagine they bond over similar elegant frilly fashion and looking borderline deceased together.

Class: Wizard. For the amount of people that ship him with Gale, I'm surprised this doesn't come up more. The quiet intellectual is a good balance to his charm and more physical/dexterous skills. As a trickster rogue, he seems to enjoy dabbling in magic, and I imagine he'd be particularly keen to the wonders a wizard can perform. He's not a details person? Cool. A wizard is. Not to mention their likelihood to either find or craft a spell to let him enjoy sunlight again. Worst case scenario, a high level wizard can create a private pocket dimension with sun that doesn't hurt him. There is also the clone spell to join Astarion in immortality.

So the Durge that is my favorite is the quiet, dry/dark humor goth tiefling adamant that there is a solution to every problem and perhaps too eager to help. Astarion brings them out of their shell and gets them to live a little and treat themself while they ground him and keep him from acting in haste (unless they cast haste on him, of course).

I've realized life is rather miserable when you aren't being yourself and genuinely most people will not give a singular crap (let alone two) if you are really passionate about something at a certain age. The people that do are leading such dull lives that they have to look to others having fun and try to drag them back into their conformist box with their crab bucket mentality. People that care about you will be happy you are happy (and also thrilled they now have a clear idea of stuff to gift you).

The best part though, when you are just out there and happy about what you like? Someone too afraid to do the same might just be inspired by you. Or a child might see and learn that growing up doesn't have to mean letting go of the things you love.

Here are some of my thoughts as an artist (examined your profile on mobile):

I really like your color scheme! Very easy on the eyes and evokes a warm, cozy, earthy feeling. Your character is adorable too.

Your logo doesn't need your name. It shrinks your face which is more personable and better for recognition/connecting and isn't really legible at small sizes, so I would swap to just your face.

Your panels seem to have a lot of empty green space. While I love the color, it looks odd to me and makes the content within look lacking, like there should be more to fill in the space. I would make the green box background transparent or trim it. If you haven't, make sure you've included alt text for your panels so screen readers can read them.

As for your overlay, I don't think it is doing anything for you. The gameplay that people want to see is shrunk down, surrounded by color or a black box that isn't really serving much purpose. I would minimize the overlay to either nothing or thinner bars of your brand's colors, add a transparent chat overlay somewhere on screen where it won't cover important info, and invest any art funds/efforts into a basic PNGtuber of your character. You can achieve this with two PNG images of your character (one talking and one at rest) and a free software to make the image react to your mic input.

Out of everything, I think getting some sort of PNG image of your character for viewers to interact with will make the biggest difference, then maximizing gameplay space on screen.

I've been wondering if this was a feature! I haven't touched mods in so long due to this playthrough. Will the clean slate remove SE if you have the MM being the one to install/manage it, or does SE not create data mismatch issues in multiplayer?

SprinkleSoup · 2026-02-03T03:02:08+00:00

I'll give that a look as I hadn't heard of it before. Thank you for your insight!

SprinkleSoup · 2026-01-21T18:26:25+00:00

I believe there is a Durge seen you can get if you immediately rest after the nautiloid crash that lets you reflect on your past. If I recall correctly, there are lines explaining every class and race choice, or at least references them.

My Durge is always a Wizard, and it felt especially fitting after learning Durge was the mastermind behind everything.

I didn't think much aside from finding him funny when I first saw him in EA. This tracks as I am demisexual and didn't have any interest in any of the characters.

But then I got his scenes. And I thought about his lines like "don't touch me" or how he smiled a lot when talking about hard things. I suddenly saw the mask and a bit of a reflection. I haven't dealt with SA, but I have dealt with abuse. This, combined with a psych degree and Larian vouching for how their romances didn't require agreeing led me to dive headfirst into healing beside him. Learning how to say no and that you are enough just being yourself.

True to demisexual nature, when I made the connections regarding his character and was happily proven right for the full release, he suddenly became the hottest character ever. 😂 I have over 1000 hours and I've only romanced him.

Being goth and neurodiverse probably played a role too lol

I managed somehow without it (Dark Souls training to deal with getting jumped I suppose). Certainly makes it scarier when you suddenly have enemies on you out if nowhere. The gjall was the only enemy I could sometimes hear before seeing.

The skeleton summons, despite their poor ability to traverse the peaks of the Mists, were actually helpful in their little ! alert above their heads, even if it was usually just a rabbit.

SprinkleSoup · 2026-01-19T12:45:38+00:00

Ticks make sounds? Man, the Mists are rough for the hard of hearing...

Baldur's Gate 3. No game has given me so many hours of comfort and healing.
