twitch_clip
Okay, I need to- I NEED TO EXPLAIN. Because my gosh twitch plays chat determination.
Normally for this glitch you have to first talk to the Old Man and watch the catch tutorial, then fly to Cinnabar somehow and surf the coast. If I understand this correctly. We did not have anyone who could Fly. Teleport can work too. ....We tossed that during Pokemon Tower. We could warp with blackout???? Apparently!! But to do so required a ludicrous plan to activate it since we needed to fly from Viridian specifically.
So! The plan:
We're mid levels because we've made it Cinnabar and no way are we risking PC for little ones. Have most of the team blackout in Pokemon Mansion except preferably one member.
Said member must get Poisoned so we can purposefully faint after the tutorial. Note we own two Poison types so knock them out for sure since they can't be poisoned later.
Make it back to the Old Man before fainting. Can't checkpoint anywhere because we need to get back to Cinnabar.
Part 3 turned out to be harder than we thought. Because we tried using the Weedle in Viridian Forest to poison us, but the only party member low enough for Gen I mechanics was our Hypno. (We tried with Onix, but apparently in Gen I if they don't do any damage they always miss? Well Onix defense was too high). We tried Onix anyway with the Wild Tentacool south of Pallet but for similar reasons needed a wild encounter of at least Level 20. So change of plans, went into the grass area to find Tangela with the hope it would randomly choose Poisonpowder. Once we got that done, we still had to Surf, bypass Pallet, walk the winding route to Viridian City to reach the man aaand
So close (ノ´・ω・)ノ ミ ┻━┻
While we COULD have tried that again, we fell back on Hypno and the Weedle and a third attempt was made with success! Team dead! Poison get! Cinnabar warp! Manage the menu to get in the water since you can't just click it in Gen I! Found Missingno!!! Killed it. Found another though!!! Where we caught it with a Master Ball which took some effort being in the middle of the menu. And apparently named it Bucket. \(゚ー゚\)
They've been at this for hours and I am so proud of Chat right now.
And for those unable to watch the vid, our streamer celebrated this feat by "giving us" a plushie. <3
Anyway I may have some concerns about a broken OP mon on the team before we finish the gyms, but I'm just so happy to have watched this. ;w;

Super Gauntlet Incidentals 1
Eunice:
I'll let Paw know yet on the way when you-
Asher:
Um…. [Winces] A-actually, Mom, I'm not going…
Eunice:
What’re you, sick? [Genuine question, she comes over to the table and feels his forehead.] Ya do look a bit feverish.
Asher:
No I'm fine, but-
Eunice:
["Fine” isn't the word she'd use. Cupping a hand under his chin, she lifts his face to look at her, planning to see if he's nervous because he's about to lie to her, but instead she sees a dim violet tinge to his eyes. Frowns. Something told her it wasn't an emergency, but there's this odd feeling in her gut that it was still dangerous] Ash. Be honest with me. Did you go anywhere yesterday you shouldn't have?
Asher:
[Blinks at her, somewhat bewildered by the slow, clear enunciation of the question. It's a bit awkward to speak with his face being held] No? I just didn't want to go through Johto. [Pulls away from her] I know we've got friends, and family, and deep roots and all that over there, but, I dunno, something is telling me I shouldn't. [Motions a little flapping by his ear] Not like a warning, but a sort of hum of excitement telling me to go a different way. That I should do my traveling in another region. Like Kanto! I know Johto, and, and, Wes is already doing the League circuit out there, and… Maybe I just want something different. Maybe… I'm just nervous I can't compete…
Eunice:
And I wouldn't want ya to. [Straightens up, hand on her hip] Now you listen here: Wes and I have a lot in common. We're working folks, with a strength of reignin’ in unruly Pokemon ‘round the ranch, but that's not anything t’be jealous of. My daddy didn't like me bein’ out in those pens even if I did it to help him hold stuff still for tagging. Ya take a lot more after him. Yer smart. [Not that anyone is around, but she talks behind her hand like it's a secret] Lot smarter than her brother, between you-me. Ain't nothing wrong with that. We've just each got our fields. Maybe yours isn't in the fields.
Asher:
Is there not a place between “lab recluse” and “withers indoors”? [Did he just say that out loud?]
Eunice:
[Was not expecting that. Snorts] You be nice! I'm sure there is. Maybe you'll be the one to find it. In fact… Maybe we should ask old Oak. He used to be quite the adventurer back in the day. At least, I've heard.
Asher:
[Sigh] But that means I hafta deal with Blue.
Eunice:
Well, I heard he's preparin’ to leave home too. Yer ‘bout the same age after all. Maybe once he leaves, ya won't see him so much.
Asher:
[Pouts]
Eunice:
It's either him, or Wes. I'm not lettin’ you off the mainland for this “humming” of yours.
Asher:
I'll take Blue.
Eunice:
Alrighty then. [Pats him on the head, still somewhat worried as her hand rests there and she scrunches his hair before letting go.] Finish yer breakfast, I've a few calls to make.
~~~~~~~~~~~
A/N: Something a little different. Not really a weird but just stray musings I wanna share. Part of my lore for SG is the world ended some time ago and was remade, so everyone was made to forget, but that doesn't mean there's not some heavy deja vu going on with the old hosts. Don't mind me, I love complex bloodlines stretching across the timeline, but time caved in on itself so there's a lot of people here who probably shouldn't be 😂

Bayek meeting Desmond?
Like, Desmond gets transported back to Egyptian times and becomes a merchant or protector of some small town, and Bayek comes waltzing through.
They meet and Desmond (who may be a bit thick) doesn't connect the Hidden Ones/Assassin/Medjay relationship. And Bayek just sees this guy who might be Greek and obviously isn't Egyptian protecting this small Egyptian town. Chaos ensues.
Romance may bloom?
It would be possible for Desmond to not put two and two together because he’s never even heard of the Hidden Ones and only saw Amunet’s statue as a ‘proto-Assassin’.
There’s also this sense of loyalty he feels towards the ‘Assassin Brotherhood’ as a title because of his Bleed of Altaïr.
As far as he knows, their Creed started with the Brotherhood.
And the Hidden Ones do their best to stay out of sight after what had happened before in Sinai.
It also helps that the small town he decided to dig his roots in was an out of the way peaceful town.
They rarely get visitors and, even when they do, those people turn out to either be a relative of one or more of the townspeople or a traveler who got lost.
Desmond got a small house with a small plot of land that can be converted to farmland by saving the son of the village chief who had been chased by a pack of wild animals and had to climb a tree in fear.
Desmond had just been passing by, debating if he should try his luck in going to what would later be called Levant or to just… stop somewhere and try to build a life there.
He was so tired.
So very tired.
And the people of the town had been kind to him. They didn’t ask why he was traveling all by himself.
They even stopped asking about his past after Desmond told them it was a ‘not a kind one’.
And now, here he was…
Working on his farm using the knowledge he had from the small farm that the Farm had, the books Altaïr and Ezio had read during their lifetime about agriculture and the tips and suggestions from his neighbors and fellow townspeople.
And one day…
He appears.
Bayek of Siwa.
He calls himself a traveler.
A few drinks later and he admits to being the last Medjay, traveling the lands to ensure its peace and to help those who need a hand.
Desmond had simply been in the village’s house with most of the men because they wished to present a united front in front of a traveler armed to the teeth.
Desmond saw his missing ring finger and thought of it as a coincidence.
Then…
Their paths intersect once more while Desmond was out in the wilderness near the town, bow in hand and quiver filled with arrows to hunt.
They met by accident and Bayek admits that he heard there were ruins nearby.
Desmond heard the tale, of course.
An ancient city, deep underground, holding the ground from caving in and burying everything with strong stable pillars too many to count.
Desmond has heard of the tales.
And he knew the name.
To be more exact…
His Bleed of Altaïr knew of the name…
Imar.
The fabled City of Pillars.
He also knows that this city was supposed to be somewhere in Levant or near Levant, not here in Egypt.
The tale the villagers would tell their children was that it wasn’t a city.
It was an underground road that would lead to the fabled city.
Desmond never saw anything, not even his Eagle Vision could find anything of interest in this town or anywhere nearby.
The most interesting thing his Eagle Vision had pinged was the gold in the village chief’s house and that was actually the chest where he stored the funds he would use to maintain the towns’ buildings and roads.
But if this man believes he can find that city then Desmond felt the need to follow him.
Because if there really was an underground city or a road that would lead to it nearby?
That could only mean…
There was an Isu facility nearby.
… and perhaps a POE as well.
.
.
.
Cue a DLC-length storyline of Bayek looking for an underground city with a mysterious young man who seems to embody the core principles of a Hidden One.
#desmond doesn’t have a hidden blade#otherwise bayek would be super sus of him already#desmond doesn’t recognize bayek’s hidden blade#because (1) he uses his sword and shield most of the time and#(2) bayek’s hidden blade look a lot like a normal gauntlet in desmond’s eyes#this is after the main story and dlcs#so that bayek and aya have both moved on#ask and answer#what do we call this?#baymond#baydes#XD#assassin's creed#desmond miles#bayek of siwa#teecup writes/has a plot#fic idea: assassin's creed

heres a rant about Vi's fighting style, coming from a boxer
okay so starting with her fighting when she was younger, in the clip where she is boxing against the like "game" machine as a kid; her style is very fast and relies on the opponents punching first, and her speed and agility in dodging. you can see her slipping and rolling quite often, as well as stepping back but not as often. Within this, her fighting style would take advantage of her size, using her at the time smaller frame to slip not only around but between the punches and hitting in the small weak zones that would be hard to get to if the opponent had not punched. This style is incredibly defensive, relying on agility and the other opponents most likely anger to get fast "stinging" hits in as opposed to hard heavy ones.
In contrast, her fighting style is INCREDIBLY different when we see her fighting Sevika later. you can see from the earlier scenes of them going around the undercity that she has regained her agility while in prison, and has not lost her quick maneuvers, however during the fight with sevika one crucial part of her fighting style has changed, instead of dodging and using her speed to her advantage she instead uses Sevikas own fighting style against her by blocking instead. She still relies on defense, but it's in a much more offensive style, taking the hits or stopping them with her own fists to block them instead of dodging in between them in search of an opening. her fighting style has changed DRASTICALLY, but you can still see glimpses of how she would fight as a child in the way she waits for her opponent to strike, and then in the small gap in when the arm is extended before she can bring it back in to block, she uses her speed to her advantage to punch between that gap. She has (in my opinion) (def not because it's also my fighting style) the best and most successful fighting style when it comes to actual defense (not so much in the ring) because she is letting her opponent get tired out. Her blocks are solid, and if you have the capability to withstand it (which she definitely does) it's a rather painless style as well, taking blunt hits to the sides and fists will ALWAYS hurt less than smaller points with the same amount of force. something about the surface area idk but it's the same reason why my face isn't black and blue right now after having a 9 pound weight chucked at me but a baseball gave me a full black eye. She repeatedly tucks in her elbows, covering her ribs while holding her chin close to her chest to protect the side of her face with her fists and her throat with her chin. Her fight with Sevika may have seemed like a rash decision but in the way she fights you can tell she is prepared for the fight and had thought it through before. However, as the fight continues and Sevika talks more, as well as begins to gain the upper hand, and showing off her new metal arm, her fighting style becomes sloppier, and she takes worse hits than before, failing to block or dodge them in time.
I say her fighting style is my personal favorite but a fatal flaw in it will always be that you NEED to block the hit properly, because if you took the hit full force without blocking, then it really would knock you down a peg in terms of fighting endurance, your general strength, and oftentimes since you usually block hits to the body it messes with your breathing pattern as well. it disrupts the flow of the fight and will mess up your endurance; which is exactly what starts to happen as the fight continues. Sevika says something i can't remember, and Vi gets sloppy and Sevika begins to hit harder and brings her metal arm out for more hits than blocks. HOWEVER a sad and incredible detail is that when Vi takes the hits that she cant block, she unconsciously returns to the fighting style she had as a child, or at least tries to. She puts her fists back up, but doesnt block her ribs so closely, similarly to how she would as a child. this, while offering less protection DOES give you more mobility and leeway in dodging, which she tries to do for the next few hits but the ones she sustained from sevika before limit her making those moves impossible, so she keeps trying to block the heavy shots while wanting to get out of the way but being unable to.
BUT what's interesting to connect is Vanders fighting style, and how it relates to Vi's. Vander would be a heavyweight in boxing, and it's clear that the way he fights is heavy and hard, the same way his style evolved to be. He takes the hit, and hits back even harder. In the beginning of Vi's first fight with Silco's people on shimmer, she adapts to that fighting style when it gets tough. She stops dodging so much and starts to calculate which hits she can and can't take. obviously child Vi doesn't go taking heavy hits from the grown adults trying to fight her but she stop slipping into the gaps and finding weak spots, instead beginning to divert punches and hit them out of the way while getting in to her opponents personal space, limiting the area they can hit her with be getting into spaces you couldn't punch to with force. WHICH is just like what you would do in a heavyweight match, the goal is to take the punch and hit back even harder, OR to get them in a place where they can't properly fight. In my personal opinion I think this means we can readily glean that Vander definitely taught Vi how to fight, and encouraged her to develop a style different from his own knowing that she wouldn't be able to take hits like he could, and hoping she would never find herself in a spot where she had to. So, in her training she would fight fast and light, dodging everything and prioritizing avoiding getting hit above hitting back, trying to tire her opponent out. However when it came to the actual fight and saving Vander, she went to what she knew worked, which was Vanders fighting style. get hit and hit harder. Which is what she continued to do through prison, and how her fighting style developed into what I mentioned in the fight with Sevika, but you can see glimmers of what Vander must have taught her to shine through when she gets scared.
#im going insane#im also super excited for season two#this was a little bit old so i might remaster it later#arcane#vi arcane#boxing#im really excited to see how her hand to hand combat style evolves through the next season and if we get to see more vi fighting with weapo#because her fighting style with weapons/gauntlet is also a rant in itself

Anniversary: The Story Thus Far
With the 10th Anniversary Super Gauntlet going on, my brain has kicked into overdrive this week thinking about some of the lore concepts to come up. Of course, at this point we've only done Red, Bootleg Yellow (yes, I'm counting it), Gold and Silver, so we've still got a LOT of games to cover before we get into the plot, but ideas are already flowing. Things may change, but I just wanted to get down some current thoughts down while I've got it.
So one plotline the Lorecord has been playing around with for a few years now is that our last season, S10, took place in a Post Apocalyptic universe that S9 had been building up to (I wanna make a separate post on this) and we finally got an arc ending payoff with Wilting Y. Each person has their own thoughts on the timeline and what events led to this and what the aftermath was, but my gosh that moment we collectively went "OH SNAP" when connecting Mega Aerodactyl to Yveltal, there's no the question of what's going on in the Super Gauntlet.
Super Gauntlet is all vanilla games being played completely on real hardware systems. This opens us up to a lot of features we've never had access to! It's exciting but having all of the regions in their vanilla states feels like a new era. The world was rebuilt It's been centuries since The End. Someone hit restart on the universe. All thoughts that have come up in discussion before. But then something interesting came up: Our first loss.
Now I personally don't think a run needs Releases to become "interesting" but it can lead to some really fascinating ideas as we try to make sense of the loss. In this case, we were fighting over the need for Cut to continue the game. Our options were: 1) evolve the Kakuna (Simon) we already had in the party so Beedrill could learn Cut. Unfortunately, there was a pretty dedicated group of evolution cancellers, so doable but proving difficult. 2) With patience wearing thin, we could just deposit someone and go catch an Oddish. (Which is what eventually happened.) 3) It may be difficult, but we had a Spearow in the PC so if we needed to use it anyway to deposit someone, we could grab the bird then trade it for Dux, just like we did in the original Red run. But people were scared of the PC and for good reason, since sure enough we had a PC war break out and Marvin "Mushmouth" the Squirtle, Simon the Kakuna, and yes, even the Spearow, were all Released.
But interestingly enough, someone proposed that Dux was the one behind this. The question quickly became why. Maybe... just maybe... because this Dux was the same as the one from Original Red. That maybe Dux was trying to avoid the fate that killed him before. Maybe because he saw this group of relic hunters and knew that Ash did not have the most noble intentions in grabbing the Helix Fossil and would actually unleash an even greater threat in his quest chasing rumors and legends and whispers of the bygone era. Ash clearly obsessed about the past when it seemed almost everyone had forgotten about it. He spent hours at the museum in Pewter to learn about the gods and set out from home with a dream. He had already obtained things like the Helix Fossil, the Town Map, the Bicycle, all symbols of Chosen past and surely more to come. Maybe the death of Marvin and Simon was truly an accident but now that Dux has "awoken" the memories of his past life, he now starts a new personal quest to follow the Chosen to stop the Voices from destroying everything again. Which Dux may have been right about Ash sadly since the kid eventually did NOT revive Helix but eventually went out of his way to obtain the mysterious Missingno named Bucket who he used a few other times to expand his riches. Put a pin there, I'll get into his fate later.
And then it was added that we meet a Farfetch'd in Ilex Forrest too. Maybe the next time we would meet Dux. Maybe he was still traded by the little girl to someone else and that's why he refuses to listen to the Woodcutter's assistant. Now that he's aware of all of this, he ran from owner to find Celebi and get answers about these strange memories of a past life. Why is this happening? What happened before? Something to definitely look out for once we saw the stories of Gold and Silver.
Well, GS dual runs came up and we could see that the twins Raymond (Gold) and Xyler / Xylver (Silver) have very different personalities with Xy often taking advantage of his brother to expand on his own power and speed on ahead by wrecking anything and anyone in his path. He caught a Ledian early on, who has become associated as the Incarnation of Olden just as one would say Helix is an Omanyte (even if there have been times we've said not all Omanyte are Helix) and much later on it gained an on-again-off-again teammate status further solidifying Xy's reputation for being a "morally gray" character. All the more telling that he failed to get either of the Tower Duo while Raymond was able to get both. Raymond is a sweet kid, and a good kid. After his brother took his Chikorita and left him with a Geodude, Raymond stayed loyal to his rock friend and eventually got a Golem. He had a Slowpoke he made a king. He had the patience and kindness to evolve his Eevee into an Umbreon, and yes, he eventually befriended Ho-oh and carried it to League.
I mention all this because even if they seem like a pair of ordinary kids, no grandiose backstories (yet) or cool occupation, something of great interest came up towards the end. For one, we were told this was not a race but by gosh did it get treated like one. Johto lasted about a day and a half. Xyler beat the League while Raymond was still in Blackthorn City and just to dunk on him, he beat it a second time while Raymond was trying to win the first time. (In truth it's because we had one VERY dedicated player who wanted to get Ledian it's promised place in the Hall of Fame) But we got to the Trainer House in Viridian City and discovered we had some guests! Ritchie was one of our side game hosts from Yellow about a year or two ago, and NEEKO was from a Silver run from about the same period.
Neeko is especially curious to see here though because during his run, he was able to pull off some ACE glitchery most notably turning the Sudowoodo into a Celebi named ASUS. It was also said about this time that when we played Blazing Emerald Redo as a side game it was to wash the awful taste out of the community's collective mouth after some of the things that happened during our original Blazing Emerald run. There had also been joking how we ~never~ got to use the Pokemon Agony had before. And we sure ~never~ got to see some of the places that only exist in BE before. So there was some lore that Neeko used his own reality warping powers and Time Guardian friend to "erase" Blazing Emerald from the timeline. Agony.... Is another tale for another time, but let's just say I hc he did not take the idea of "fading from existence as everyone he loved forgets about him as some sort of punishment for things outside his control while he STILL suffers the consequences" very well. Neeko probably means well? But him showing up to beat down Xy (he swept us in the first encounter) is not a good sign for our power seeking scamp because Neeko has literally destroyed people before, he would do it again if he thought it would fix things. AND WORSE he's got ties to Celebi which brings us back full circle that maybe the one Dux was working for / went to meet in the forest with, was none other than Neeko. And given Xy's bad luck with birds (even his flier was "borrowed" after Raymond picked up Kenya then traded it to him) who better to thwart / keep an eye on this punk than the Leek Knight himself here to fulfill the divine duty he never got to fulfill?
And maybe he did. Maybe he didn't. I have two thoughts that if he did, what happened. 1) Neeko "erased" Xy's original adventure where we don't know and don't want to think about what he did to catch Neeko's attention when there was no one to stop him. This second time having Raymond go with him / instead of him may be specifically to stop that path of events from happening again. 2) Xy may have been the target but Neeko may have learned from his mistakes. Instead of going after him directly like he did with Agony, he tried to change the course by instead going after Ash. 3) ... Both are simultaneously true.
Ah yes, still got that pin?
Now before we started SGRed, we played a few intermission games to test out the system in preparation for the official run. One of those was Bootleg Yellow. We didn't finish it though, but we had a hero named Ash and he picked up a Squirtle so connections are there already. Since Missingno messed up our Hall of Fame data, we discovered that Ash was "dreaming of Marvin" as we watched a mini HoF play out with a corrupted Squirtle image. After the run, we got to go back and finish Yellow. Interestingly, since Ash had a full pack when he beat Giovanni, we had no space for the Fissure TM. Game Freak thought of this, so Giovanni doesn't disappear until you take it. So it looks like in SGR, Team Rocket never disbanded. BUT in Bootleg Yellow there's a greater focus on Team Rocket if I understand right and the League Rematch replaced Gary with Jessie and James as Champion. So Ash did end up finishing off Team Rocket so Johto events could proceed as they should. But how this came about is because after Yellow we have been playing Stadium2 with our games plugged in. There's a feature in Stadium2 that both lets you play the GB cartridges from an arcade mode and allows you to bring Pokemon from said cartridges into the arenas. Ash tried to withdraw Bucket and of course the game crashed. This seemed like The End for him. Except timeline wise this may have been what "saved" him assuming he completed Red, failed to defeat Team Rocket, whatever happened between Neeko and Xy the first time, Neeko went back and ripped Ash out of this Bad End but by doing so Ash ended up starting over in Yellow. Further complicating things is either Ritchie is here because while Ash had to set up events for Xy, Raymond didn't have that problem because Ritchie had done it. They're cool, just hanging out. That may mean when Neeko tried to fix things with Ash though, he accidentally booted out Ritchie. Alternatively, it could be that since the world is having these moments of repetition, Ritchie being a Chosen never forgot the old world and had his Yellow adventures ages ago. Seeing things play out (albeit differently this time) he's just here because he's worried about his home and wished nothing but the best for Ash. Which he did good so now Ritchie is just keeping an eye on things because he knows Neeko and is nervous about what he's up to. Please don't erase anyone this time. That caused such a mess... On the upside, whatever terror Neeko thought Xy might do didn't come to pass. Interestingly, ASUS ended up being the name of Xy's rival, so it's possible the redhead jerk was actually Celebi in disguise all along checking in on Xy to make sure he was good this time. Or ASUS being so aggressive was because he kept failing to stop Xy since he kept losing. It's funny then to think Neeko only showed up in the post game after having an "aw crap" reaction to Xy getting to the League miles ahead of Raymond but then Xy let his brother catch up. Only because like the Tortoise and the Hare he got cocky. Raymond defeated Red first so he kinda won the game. Red was vanilla Red of course so I'm not quiiiite sure what significance that would mean for Xy to reach him second. And with Ash and Ritchie around, technically we're not even sure who this Red is but it was (possibly) important to Neeko either way. So since Raymond won, that did ..... something??? We'll see.
But going back to Ash now. Why would he not have his team when starting over? Because after GS we went back to Stadium2 where Ash's team has been crumbling because of technicalities. First we ended up trading Bucket to Raymond but this turned it into a normal Ditto so it's no longer a cursed abomination. Ash could technically get Bucket back, but it'll never be the same. We also evolved our Onix into a Steelix so that's nice for him, but Ash can never bring him home now since Steelix would create a time paradox. So that's two members gone. As much as Ash cares about Pixie I bet he wouldn't dare risk her or the others remaining on a second journey if he started over in Yellow. Buuuut alternatively, Ash falling through a crack in the space-time thanks to Neeko may have honestly made him forget what happened. Was Red all just a dream? He's waking up 10 years old again being told Oak is waiting to give him his first Pokemon... Man, it was a nice dream being all action hero and finding creatures that shouldn't exist and all that. But... Just like Dux, it's possible as he went along this journey, even as things are slightly different, he's getting memories of what feels like another world. Another life... What happened to him?
And that now has my mind racing over other characters who may have had memories stirred. Ash's rival was named Blue. Is it the one from Original Red? From Gauntlet? What does he remember? Does Lance have this sinking feeling that for all his fame and fortune he's missing something? He had a wife, a whole family back in Naljo before the world fell apart. And now he's met not one but three new Chosen, how much deja vu is he getting from TPP shenanigans over the years? I have some thoughts on them, but that's for another post subject.
But for now, we got Ruby and Sapphire coming up on Monday!! And you know it's about this point in the series the stakes start rising. We've taken on mere mortals, now let's save the world from primordial titans! .... Good luck heroes.

I really like this game. Im over 100 hours in. But. The dreariness. Is so much.
Like ok this whole act is in shadow cursed lands fine. But. The house of healing? And then even in shars temple theres skeletons ok but theres just corpses and bones and random body parts hanging from the ceiling. Im usually excited to explore every nook and cranny but Ivr had enough of this whole area already.
Hsvent done moonrise towers. Done most? of shars gauntlet, got the spear, dealt with ?yurgir and then I was looking up where to find loot because Im not enjoying the ambience (@harrow) and I saw if you do the gauntlet before moonrise you lose the gnomes and tieflings? Idk if its the whole thing or not so after yurgir orthon?? Is orthon the type of devil? - went back to last light. (And hoo boy. My computer isnt quite technically up to spec for thr game. The cutscenes are choppy and it takes forever to save but I make it work. Last light really slows everything down, there are so many npcs and building layers all right there. Cant seem to get nore tief info about zevlor though, no one wants to talk about him?)
So now Halsin wants me to meet him by the lake for a quick trip into the shadowfell? Is dealing with the absolute urgent or what, we're just going on another interplanar jaunt?? I mean as long as theres less corpses tbh. (The warding bond marriage rings?!?! Ugh)) and how old is Halsin anyway?
Also very funny with the whole defeaying the last dark justiciar thing and theres shadowheart completed the trials decked out in her new dark justiciar half-plate. Also why are there still rats after i defeated him? Enemy rats. That was a fun fight though, popped up spirit guardians and just had shadowheart dash around. I kinda feel bad for Lythander, hes kinda cool.
And i had to look up the solution to the library. It asks what silences the nightsong and the answrr is Shar! So I tried to give it the idol of shar from grymforge. No, it wants the book that gives the hint because the hint is the answer because a book about what silences the nightsong is the answer to what silences the nightsong? Thats not logical, the answer is Shar, not a book. But it is a library so maybe I should have guessed.
The self same trial was also cool. You know whats better than having your own fireball used against you? Counterspell.
And when counterspell fails the combat long says you "cast failed counterspell". Oh yes my favourite spell, Failed Counterspell! 😂
And I kinda wish I could recruit Rolan. Poor guy with his thunderwave.
#bg3 spoilers#bg3#mine#review#and ive completely forgotten what my liveblog tag was. im so good at this#generally the temple of the shar is super cool. im just done w all the bodies gore#and i saw on a screenshot i somehow missed the sigil transport waypoint at the beginning of it?#i only have the gauntlet waypoint#oh and I can now kiss karlach!#going on my long rest agenda along w pet the animals#considering being deliberate w my camp supplies but idk if i cbb#amused that its possible to full rest on entirely alcohol
