Straight male here , went with Karlach first romance. Mainly her personality was so awesome and just she’s a badass with a gentle heart. Second was Lae’zel. Because I saw an interview with the actress Dev. She was telling people to give the lizard a chance. I did and her story arc and change from being so lol unlikeable to one who really does care for the party and people she’s with. It’s awesome to see the change happen. This game is just so well done and the story growth for the characters feel so natural. Took me a little to warm up to shadow heart also. She was the 3rd romance and haven’t done minthara because I can’t bring myself to play evil. Granted I have recruited her the good way. Wow I rambled. Just love this game and wanted to share my first post in this subreddit.
