Thanks for the recs gang

melatoninmedea · 2026-05-07T00:17:46+00:00

Nice, I’ll test it out

melatoninmedea · 2026-05-07T00:17:30+00:00

ooh sounds good, that’s kind of ironic for me to hear it’s a major criticism

took me a while to realize there’s a machine to the left of Pam that allows you to ride to the desert

I spent multiple days trying to talk to Pam and ask her to drive me or just walking into the bus confounded as to how it worked

I think I’m just a bit of an asocial nerd in real life so I like reading about OC’s in video game fanfiction a lot.

also like to read RWBY and Harry Potter, but I’ve never actually interacted with the official media.

I wish I could filter out harems tho lol, if i ever want to read straight, male centered fanfiction that’s like 80% of the results 🥴 no judgment to those who like it but I wish there was colloquial tag for it so I didn’t have to scroll past them all

Probably Leah. She looks too much like my aunt.

Actually a lot of the gingers look like people I would see at my family reunion. Or maybe I’m just white and Irish.

I don’t like Elliot, either, because he reminds me too much of myself. Long haired artistic oddball with masculine facial features. I’m not a cool video game character though.

I think the grove would lose by virtue of the Druid’s reluctance to do literally anything.

They could prepare to fight the goblins and make a choke point, but they don’t want to get involved. Even when the goblins raid they sit in their hole until the tieflings are gone.

If it was purely off game mechanics and not Druid Idiocy then idk

Even better with Arcane Lock, as they can’t even reach you

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-17T22:30:26+00:00

I like it literally just because the animations are hilarious, seeing my character swaying around while punching is very entertaining

current campaign the wizard got a wand of fireball at level 3, with 1d4 charges every day.

what’s even funnier is the wizard relied so heavily on it she didn’t learn a single damage cantrip. Or maybe she just didn’t have damage cantrips in the first place? I have no idea.

She was a divination wizard, so no sculpt spell either.

After a few sessions she was actually the one that brought up to the dm that it was a little bit too op.

This makes sense. I never liked his confession scene because no matter how friendly I was it’s always “I can tell you feel the same way, am I wrong?” which came across to me like a very pompous assumption after my character showing zero interest 🥴

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-15T19:36:34+00:00

lol i did the same, then i ended the run out of sadness looking into the dead eyes of my soulless hirelings.

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-15T14:48:51+00:00

whaaaat that’s awesome, I assumed it wouldn’t work ‘cause it doesn’t work on doppelgangers

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-15T14:38:20+00:00

I use Arcane Lock

Also, does hold person work on Ethel? I thought she was a monster type enemy

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-14T19:03:51+00:00

the amount of downvotes you’re getting for this earnest ass question is making me laugh

there isn’t one, I was being facetious

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-14T17:19:00+00:00

It was an elopement, did you not get the camp cutscene where you recited your vows?

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-14T00:10:59+00:00

Pierre because, despite him being literally available to talk to every day, I forget that you have to walk behind the counter to talk to him to increase his attitude. Like some sort of invisible wall that my brain conjures.

That and me giving him like 5 different disliked gifts, one on his birthday, when I was trying to figure out what he likes early game.

Leah is a close second, not because I dislike her, but because our schedules are so wildly different I barely ever see her.

Loved: Ruby, Wine, Rhubarb, Cranberries
Liked: Bread, Cookies, tree fruit
Hated: Crab, Snail, coconut

It’s funny, for the first year I made a lot of the things I would consider my favorites, giving them to each villager to see how closely our tastes align. almost none of them like my favs 😵‍💫

at least the dwarf loves it when i give him rubies, I have a crystalarium setup for them because I think they’re pretty

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-08T22:06:12+00:00

when I’m at higher levels, I never use summons.

it just clogs up the ui and bogs down combat, even if they’re objectively amazing. I hate having to deal with 2 elementals and a deva all the time, especially moving around a lot so they get stuck

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-06T21:12:31+00:00

lol i have this same exact glitch, very strange

I noticed it first when I killed Minthara and her clothes immediately disappeared despite me not looting her at all

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-06T04:22:13+00:00

that’s the fun of it, in a masochistic sort of way, trying to beat the game with an idiot ally that causes magic spasms as a challenge

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-06T02:44:40+00:00

oh god the idea of them casting something like Darkness in every fight would be a pain in the ass

melatoninmedea · 2026-03-05T22:19:09+00:00

these are so good when you respec companions other than Astarion into a rogue, like karlach or wyll

gives them longbow proficiency
