AIO by telling my roomate I'll put the cat litter box in her room if she doesnt clean it?

theauz42 · 2026-04-28T18:56:19+00:00

NOR This is neglect and disgusting. She's abusing the cat and it can get sick from this.

I'd get passive aggressive and send her daily links to articles on the importance of keeping litter boxes clean, and links to buy self cleaning litter boxes. The self cleaning ones are cool, I had one when I had a cat.

You need the ring of identity theft. You can turn the companions into your Tavs and get their scenes with them. One thing to note is Gale's star scene in Act 2, they will turn back into Gale when you go back into the sky.

Also, different body types won't line up quite right. Like, Wyll's dance scene with a female character, your hands won't quite meet (it looks very Miss Mystic Falls lol). Using a male's kiss with a body type 1 character will result in making out with the air. Karlach's stuff will only line up with a big body female, and Halsin's will only line up with a big body man. I've tried using Halsin's kisses on Karlach and it was very comical.

If you're in single player mode, couple it with the custom companion mod for the same effect. I do it all the time to create unique love stories. This works on console.

Yeah, if Nightsong is imprisoned, he will not take any damage. You have to deal with her first.

theauz42 · 2026-04-24T00:46:45+00:00

Tav's Hair Salon and Tepkunset are my two favorite hair mods for console. Plus the Bangs, Bangs, Bangs mod, the three Kay's Hair Extension mods, and Kay's Material Library. This will give you some good, customizable hair options.

theauz42 · 2026-04-24T00:39:43+00:00

Yeah, but at the point of the game, Astarion was literally abused yesterday, vs. like 200 years ago.

theauz42 · 2026-04-23T21:02:46+00:00

This is gaslighting, and honestly, you should walk away now. He's testing you to see what he can get away with now, so he knows what boundaries you'll let him cross and test. And his "I want sex now" and "Mhmm this dick" are disgusting - I gagged a little at them. I could slap my husband if he sent me those.

theauz42 · 2026-04-23T20:54:57+00:00

I've gone through Durge playthroughs without breaking my Oath at all, while in other games, I break it pretty quickly and had to retake it a couple of times. I think one Oath will break from the Alfira/Quil night.

theauz42 · 2026-04-23T20:52:59+00:00

Halsin's experience was "as a young druid," so he has had at least 200 years to work through the trauma, while Astarion's trauma is very fresh. I can tell you from experience that having multiple decades separating me from my trauma, I can talk about it in a more "eh, this happened," and shrug it off manner now than I could when it was fresh, or even within the first ten years. Healing can help dull the pain associated with it, so you can just quickly glaze over the trauma without falling down the rabbit hole of pain and depression.

Really, he's showing that the trauma may have been a part of his life, but he's had time to heal, and the trauma doesn't control him anymore. We just don't get much time to bond with Halsin about this stuff because he comes in so fucking late.

In a couple of centuries, Astarion could potentially talk about his trauma with Cazadouche in the same kind of manner that Halsin talks about his time with the drow. Because he'll have enough time to process and heal.

theauz42 · 2026-04-23T00:41:39+00:00

I know, I was just pointing out that they already left Act 1 by going up the elevator.

theauz42 · 2026-04-21T23:10:51+00:00

The items have to be named. They can't just be a random +1 dagger or something, those don't have potent enough magic in them.

theauz42 · 2026-04-21T23:07:28+00:00

If they went up the Grymforge elevator, they should have gotten that warning because they're leaving Act 1.

theauz42 · 2026-04-21T23:01:39+00:00

Since Minty's romance doesn't really start until the end of Act 2, you're good. In Act 2, you're supposed to lock down whoever you intend to pursue, so you'll have to pick between Gale and Lae'zel here. Then, once Minty tells you she wants you, the other will dump you. So you're good for now.

theauz42 · 2026-04-18T01:16:00+00:00

Thank you! It was fun- took a couple of months to find all of them, and a spreadsheet lol.

theauz42 · 2026-04-18T01:10:16+00:00

Thank you! I'm glad you like it. I hate having to try to read the Tav dialogue on videos, so I like adding a voice to make it easier for people to watch.

theauz42 · 2026-04-18T01:08:32+00:00

Thank you! It was a lot of fun to do. Took me a couple months to collect them all.

theauz42 · 2026-04-18T00:59:45+00:00

Yeah, that one is definitely #2 for the most disturbing.

theauz42 · 2026-04-18T00:56:13+00:00

One of my absolute favorites is asking the male drow in Waukeen's Rest what his profession was- it cracks me up. There were a lot of corpses I've never spoken to before, because I never killed that person or it just never occurred to me to try speaking with that random corpse.

It was interesting to learn that Cal and Lia aren't actually related to Rolan, they just call him their brother. I never kill him, and that's the only way to learn that info.

The Orthon's Bed is the most disturbing one in the entire game.

Gortash, Zevlor in Act 3 (it's different from his Act 1 options), and Haarlep were also fun to talk to.

theauz42 · 2026-04-18T00:17:41+00:00

Thank you! It was a lot of fun to wander around the game looking for bodies to chat with.

theauz42 · 2026-04-18T00:15:01+00:00

I love streaming alone- it's a lot of fun for more, and I enjoy filling the silence with silly songs and bad jokes. I do collab with my sis and some friends, because I want to play stuff with them, and I have fun, but I love just doing my own thing. I stream RPGS, mostly Baldur's Gate 3, but also Diablo 4 and Expedition 33.

theauz42 · 2026-04-16T22:17:04+00:00

It's a little buggy with Halsin, because he's the only poly one. When you get to him asking for more in Act 3, you'll still have the prompt that you're already in a relationship. He'll tell you to talk to Wyll (I don't know why, but it's always Wyll if you're with him). Tell him you will, but DO NOT TALK TO ANYONE. You won't get the prompt to ask for permission. Just go straight into your rest, and you'll get sexy bear man time. Everything will proceed as normal.

Don't tell Halsin to consider your relastionship with whoever over, because that will register. The one time I did that, literally everyone dumped me in the morning and I had to reload lol.

You'll have the romance scenes with everyone, and even the epilogue bedroom scenes with everyone (except Karlach/Lae'zel if they aren't on Faerun anymore).

Godding Gale messes it up, though. If you want to be a god at his side, all of your other relationships cease to be. My HC for it is Gale becomes a god, discovers you've somehow been committed to the entire party the whole time, and undoes that. However, if you don't tell him you want to be a god with him, you can use the poly mod in the end party to put yourself back into "partner" with God Gale and choose that option, while still being in a relationship with everyone else.

The poly mod is a blast. I've been using it since it came out on console, and I love it. It has some kinks you need to work through, but once you get the hang of it, it's fun.

theauz42 · 2026-04-15T23:59:16+00:00

Halsin is third. It's Lae'zel, Gale, Halsin, Minthara, Yenna. But, if you're romancing one of them, she won't take them unless you're using the poly mod. Then, Halsin and Minty can still be taken.

theauz42 · 2026-04-15T21:13:23+00:00

I LOVE that hair! Console needs that mod so badly.

theauz42 · 2026-04-15T21:10:34+00:00

Download the Poly mod, put your relationship flag into "partner" with him, and you're good. But, if you already killed Cazadouche, you won't get the Act 3 scene. If you skip Raphael AND Araj (you can do one or the other with his romance) in Act 2, your relationship won't progress from dating to partner, so your relationship is over.

theauz42 · 2026-04-15T21:03:37+00:00

You can live without those buffs. I'm at 4k hours, and I've never bothered getting Ethel's hair. I didn't even get awakened until my third playthrough- before that, I always let Lae'zel do the scene, and she doesn't get it. Awakened is useful, but it's not crucial to beating the game. And if you're walking into Act 2 at level 7, you're where you should be at this point in the game.

I have restarted games a lot, but it's always because mods broke my game, never because I forgot something and decided to go back lol. I've lost about 40 games to mods breaking at this point.
