on one hand karlach not leaving my party as i do everything that ive done in act 3 is unrealistic and she should have attacked me at this point. preferably right before the end when she realizes i truly have no intentions of doublecrossing gortash.
on the other hand karlach has survived literal fucking onslaughts when me, shadowheart, and astarion were all taking naps on the floor. and fighting her sounds like a bad time even if i get steel watch backup
#bg3 spoilers#okay listen. okay#wouldn't it make sense#if you take certain actions that characters are SO opposed to morally or that hurt them personally.#outside of act 1#they leave.#wyll should also leave we all know gortash has his father and im not doing SHIT to save him but like. wyll is manageable#hes still level 4 or something#possibly lower#BUT KARLACH.#karlach objectively speaking should be outright attacking me when i waltz into that fortress#one last 'hey soldier i cant stay with you if you go through with this.' BECAUSE IM WORKING WITH THE GUY WHO SOLD HER TO ZARIEL#SHE WOULDNT JUST QUIETLY FOLLOW ME *AND HIM* TO THE MORPHIC POOL#shes literally the best character on my team so gameplaywise itd be a fucking nightmare but NARRATIVELY SPEAKING#karlach should at the very least leave the party#she literally leaves the party if you side with the goblins and you want me to believe that thats more egregious than siding with gortash#like yeah youve been in it together for a lot longer by the time you hit act 3 but STILL.#she can expect you to just be fucking with him before the last scene before the morphic pool idc#but wouldnt it make sense if she attacked you during or immediately after that#maybe shed even only attack if shes in the party when you go there. maybe she just leaves if shes not#big fan of consequences for my actions. like when i had 0 backup at moonrise#i just think karlach wouldnt stay with me. not with everything ive done. the slayer. bhaal's gift. gortash ALL OF IT#i like act 3 a lot because it finally lets me be the worst. ok. el isnt a guy who kills hes a villain who occasionally helps others now#and obviously. orin & gortash my beloveds (derogatory)#but MANNNN missed opportunity#i havent reached the ending proper so id totally believe karlach & wyll leave if you decide to control the brain but WHATS THE POINT#at that point that isnt a consequence its just part of the ending#i deliberately helped the grove so shed stay with me till act 3. now make me regret that
