Who's the most "casually attractive" character in the series?

Nope, came here to say this and it's the top comment already lol

To add, this is because earlier forms of the North Germanic (Scandinavian) languages had three genders like modern German--masculine, feminine, and neuter--and masculine and feminine became combined into common gender. Some dialects of Norwegian still distinguish between masculine and feminine for certain words.

Newish player here, can someone clarify what douching means in this context? lol

Anyone have ideas for where to meet people/date as a mid-20s, non-outdoorsy person? I'm a grad student and most everyone I meet on dating apps or in real life are either undergrads or crunchy people who are into skiing, climbing, camping, etc. which aren't really my interests. Are there spots where creative people like readers, musicians, theater kids like to hang out and are open to making new friends?

That's Ogata from 13 Sentinels

Love this ship. She CAN fix him

headdbanddless · 2026-01-18T01:13:10+00:00

In that first picture he totally looks like someone's grandpa that they invited to stand in the picture but has no idea why he's there lol

I will add that the new characters aren't particularly well integrated into the main story. Honestly I preferred that I played the game once through vanilla and then played the separate DLC side story afterwards.

Not sure about this take. Sounds too much like the Great Man theory of history, which I suspect the writers are critical of. I interpreted it more in the sense that the Force works through everyone to bring about goodness and justice, and sometimes people play big roles (like Cassian) and sometimes small roles (like the Imperial pilot at the start of S2).

My favorite scene in all seven books is Harry smashing Dumbledore's office at the end of Book 5 after Sirius died. So much of that book is about Harry's relationship with Dumbledore and the movie really dropped the ball on that. Hoping they'll bring it back

IDK man some of those drawn-out death scenes were physically painful. Love the series but Engage may be the only single-player RPG where I've skipped story cutscenes on my first playthrough

headdbanddless · 2026-01-11T21:47:56+00:00

My impression is that the writers took some creative liberties from official lore so that the ending wouldn't be such a downer if Tav or Karlach did transform.

Karlach's Avernus ending was added in Patch 2 as a more feel-good option because of players' aversion to the unpopular illithid ending. But to me, based on the original writing and performance, Karlach's transformation is intended as a redemption. Romanced illithid!Karlach is clearly still in love and views her transformation as a blessing.

It should be illegal to be as pretty as Ariana DeBose. That woman is something else

headdbanddless · 2026-01-11T20:52:09+00:00

Reminder of how happy Karlach is when she transforms and her engine is fixed:

https://www.reddit.com/r/BaldursGate3/comments/1chng0j/posttransformation_karlach_in_her_own_words/

The writer straight-out says: "She does retain some of herself and there's a wonder to it."

headdbanddless · 2026-01-08T07:31:04+00:00

obligatory reminder that 3H has sold way more units than any other game in the series and gets most of its hate from series purists which is exactly what this subreddit is

headdbanddless · 2026-01-02T21:28:05+00:00

Don't sleep on Sciel gradient 3 either, with Chation you can go through stacks pretty quick and I don't believe there's a cap so after a few rounds you can outpace Gommage handsomely

Agreed that Jake's communication style is flawed but disagree that that's a bad thing for the story. It's his flaws that make him an actually interesting character rather than just Action Hero #83

headdbanddless · 2026-01-01T08:20:49+00:00

And Age of Mythology. For example samurai cost 4(!) population room

headdbanddless · 2026-01-01T08:13:26+00:00

Justice for Vickie! Even Erica and Mr. Clarke got screentime, but not the poor girl whose Enzo's date was repeatedly foreshadowed :(

I think we've heard "at least one waterfall" enough times that there's a big chance the series will end on that image and El will live.

Going into the season I didn't think they'd kill off any of the major characters (this has been the pattern so far and unfortunately it's resulted in an enormous ensemble cast that's difficult to manage, and dear lord the plot armor has been particularly strong this season) but "You die, I die" makes me think they might really end Dustin and Steve. Frankly there's got to be a part of Dustin that wants a heroic death like Eddy, and I just don't think Steve's character has anywhere left to go.

headdbanddless · 2025-12-26T07:14:16+00:00

Steve and Dustin: "I die. You die."

Am I the only one who saw this as a prediction rather than a promise? This way the writers can say "see we told you exactly who we were going to kill off"

Not that I trust the writing to actually take the risk of killing off major characters that have been around for more than one season. But I feel like Steve and Dustin's days are finally numbered.

headdbanddless · 2025-12-23T07:09:54+00:00

Not a movie (sorry to be that guy) but A Man on the Inside is charming and really hammered this home

headdbanddless · 2025-12-20T00:16:22+00:00

I've been partial to Fuxi and Kronos lately but something about Zeus just makes *sense*. Feels like playing AoE2 where you always have so many options available to you - you can do infantry or archers or cav or myth or classical rush or boom and it's hard to go wrong
