IT'S DONE. I'M DONE.

535 hours across 5 complete playthroughs, dear BG3 you are going on the shelf until I can look at you again. xDD

the last run was super fun, the tactician difficulty definitely made me more involved/finally got me using scrolls and various potions and elixirs instead of hoarding them till (and past) the very end

i even managed to accomplish the most difficult thing in the whole game and saved all the gondians (if you know, you know)

maybe I'll attempt an honor run one day, but this is not the day

#bg3 playthrough #Astarion's run was a mixed bag for most of the companion outcomes #he didn't dissuade anyone away from their wants #so gale and wyll got way different endings than what i usually go for #karlach's no more #so is lae'zel #halsin's fine #Shadowheart's fine living quiet life with Astarion in the countryside #the game was definitely worth the full price several times over #though i admit it's mostly the companion storylines that make it shine plot-wise #the overarching plot does try to spoon-feed you social commentary every now and again #i swear the whole refugee thing made me roll my eyes more than once #i still think the name sucks for a group of people who lived like 1-2 hours away by car from the city of Baldur's Gate #like 100-150 miles maybe #come on #survivors from elturel would've been better #on the same note trying to sell the city as some sort of beacon of light/hope when you see that every other house has a murder basement #'jewel of coast' indeed #a grand unpolished kidney stone more like it
