Makes sense, I just mainly interface with Lemmy thru jerboa

I can block communities on Lemmy in Jerboa atleast

One of my first (concurrent) playthrus I was under the impression that there might be some limit to the long rests because of the tadpole, so I basically did all of act 1 on like 1 maybe 2 long rests. It was really fun to have to play so cautiously and really eke out every advantage I could, but then was really disappointed when I realized almost all the companion stuff happens one at a time during long rests, and power long rested like 20 times in a row.

I’m like 60% sure if you make tav or other origin characters cleric of shar, and then a paladin they end up with the paladin of shar tag

Honestly worse than that, many of these scamming operations run on human trafficking.

Kinda wish this would’ve been in the original release version

Wyll is bad for the reason I find so many companions bad in games like this. He’s good: too good. I felt the same way about Kaidan in Mass Effect, who is the archetype for these sorts of companions. They’re always very nice people on the surface, often driven by some military code that holds virtue and justice above everything. Then they have conversations mostly about bread or how clear water is, reveal some deep burden, and then keep on smiling throughout it. It’s supposed to be admirable. But it’s dull. It presents a character who has no flaws, and when faced with their greatest challenge, they simply smile and shrug.

It doesn’t seem like that’s how they feel, and this paragraph to me says the opposite. Their complaint about wyll is that he is (to them) unrealistically too good of a person. I don’t know about you, but I frequently actually dislike characters because they don’t seem like real people, which seems to be the article author’s position on Wyll.

I think they are being a bit pretentious with their fun fact side note, as if playing a paladin and romancing shadowheart isn’t really compelling, and is fundamentally undeserving of being the most popular option for a first playthrough. Its especially weird to me that they like Karlach but dislike Wyll, because I feel like they are very similar.

It doesn’t matter who your bad companion is. […] But as long as you have one (and only one), you know you’re in for a great game.

That all aside, their conclusion is wrong anyways, because people are perfectly capable of liking the whole cast, and they probably would enjoy bg3 more if they also enjoyed Wyll. Having an ensemble cast means the writers maybe don’t have to worry too much about any particular character being hit or miss, those misses are allowances, not targets.

Just pirate it, and buy a gift pack of dos2 or dos1

Yeah, I’m playing

I might play around with that a little bit. Hotfix 8 seemed to change the behavior slightly for me, and cause the ooze not to appear immediately, but still fairly soon.

This is the guide I’ve seen on it, looking into it it seems I am outta luck because you can’t maintain saves from a later version. It might help you if you have been avoiding playing as a result tho. Or if future patches break things.

Yeah this is getting a bit frustrating. I might look into reverting to patch 2 hotfix 6 this weekend, if my saves from hotfix 8 are backwards compatible.

I’m butting up against the edges of what I can do in game without seriously progressing and locking myself out of finishing quests I have basically completed, but just need to talk to someone nearby the strange ox at this point.

Oof, what triggers that one?

Well I hope we get another hotfix this week with a fix for the

I’ve been avoiding returning there my last couple sessions, but I’d like to resolve some of the quests and get some gear soon… I have definitely lost pregress a couple times. When I realized later that for some reason part of that area had loaded in, despite me not even getting all that close.

Only the hand crossbow, not light or heavy crossbows.

Cool thanks! I didn’t notice the attack tooltip changing. Yeah, I put them on a thief rogue, with the caustic band and elixir of the colossus too. Its a fair bit of dps and more easily splitable for crowd control than my friend’s barbarian.
