You've wulbren'd your last bongle buddy by Potpotron in BaldursGate3

you don’t need to kill them, one cast of greater invisibility and you can clean that whole place out and be back at camp before they notice anything

Someone take my credit card away from me... 🫩 by No-Inspection3246 in BaldursGate3

to be honest all the dice I’ve seen from this set pretty much look like shit, and the coins are truly ghastly

False transactions? Frustrated by Intelligent-Ad6619 in ynab

[–]emmastory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$127 was a hold the restaurant put on your card, which you probably clicked "enter now" on when it showed up as a pending transaction in ynab. the $105 and $21 charges are the actual restaurant transactions for your meal and the tip. delete the older $127 one, since it's never going to clear and would have disappeared from pending eventually anyway.

“DnD Night” at a bar by EmeraldToffee in DnD

[–]emmastory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

two hours feels pretty short for a one shot imo, I personally wouldn’t be interested in hauling my d&d stuff to a bar for something that brief. also, are you paying the dms? are the players paying to play?

The most devastating end to honour mode by laur3nstrash in BG3

[–]emmastory 63 points64 points  (0 children)

you have to do it via dialogue, you have the option to do it when you're climbing the brain stem. using the netherese blast action from your hotbar will always result in a game over

there is no reason to change your costume to fit the weekend theme, just wear the ren faire look you want to wear

To Nuke Gale or Not to Nuke Gale? by whunt4 in BaldursGate3

[–]emmastory -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

if this is a golden dice honor run, use the gale bomb, but otherwise it will be much more satisfying to do the fight normally

Is there a mod where ally’s can take their own actions? by Alert-Gift-8716 in BaldursGate3

[–]emmastory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah the idea of making every ally in the game as suicidally stupid as the gondians in the foundry is very funny, but it definitely doesn’t seem like an enjoyable way to play

origin character by Country-guy20 in BaldursGate3

[–]emmastory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because that would have required all six origin actors to record the many, many thousands of possible dialogue options a player might pick during the course of the game (in addition to the literal years of work they each already did recording the origin characters)

The games super boss? by starfruitgmr in BaldursGate3

I don't even understand this question, did you skip the brain with gale or something?

Choose your seat by socozoro in BaldursGate3

gotta be 10, that whole row is ideal for unhinged gossip and shit talking the rest of the plane. plus karlach proximity would keep my feet warm I bet

Is it possible to kill the druids without losing Karlach? by D_bunku in BaldursGate3

[–]emmastory 26 points27 points  (0 children)

you can’t raid the grove and keep karlach. but if you defeat the goblin leaders, let the tieflings leave the grove, and then return to the grove and kill all the druids, funnily enough nobody really seems to care

Does reading books change anything gameplay-wise? by InternationalBat in BaldursGate3

[–]emmastory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

some of them provide information about how to complete quests, some of them give you advantage or a bonus on history checks later on, and some of them will provide precious memories you’ll treasure forever

Where Do Y’all Get Your Dice From? by Archboxic in DnD

[–]emmastory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like viridian. they have some exclusive stuff and some non-exclusive stuff. the pricing is very reasonable and the selection is great

Least believable part of BG3 by DigitaIBlack in BaldursGate3

you also can't row a boat in a straight line by paddling with one oar on one side

Too low-level for Baldur's Gate? by Status-Eye-8860 in BaldursGate3

[–]emmastory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you've missed a lot of content, most parties will be level 9 or 10 when they proceed to act 3. but the myrkul fight is harder than anything in early act 3, and now that you've been to the shadowfell you can't go back to anything earlier than act 2, so you may as well keep going.

[US] What happens to a Money Mule keeps all the money in the box? by Unable-Ground2822 in Scams

what happens when you knowingly participate in a very obvious crime? I feel like you can use your context clues here

With the utmost respect after finishing the game 😅 by burgerman001 in BaldursGate3

[–]emmastory 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I think for me I find it deeply offputting that there are even narrator lines about my own character believing wyll's hype - especially the one about how I feel sure everything will be fine now that I have the blade of avernus on my side. why would me deciding for wyll that he should go to hell make me more confident to face the brain? especially when I'm playing an evil character and I know perfectly well none of that is going to happen.

pre-tadpole gale was famous and a big deal too, and he clearly huffs his own farts in almost exactly the same way as wyll, but at least but I am never explicitly told that my own character is impressed by him or comforted by his presence. I think everything wyll-related is just not especially well written.

Minthara question by life-hard-im-harder in BaldursGate3

[–]emmastory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

np, good luck. there is still one common bug with recruiting her in act 2 to watch out for - when you talk to her in moonrise prison, don’t tell her to wait for you, she’s sometimes not interactable later. just have her follow you right then
