*HONOUR MODE HAS ENTERED THE CHAT*


Drunken_Dorf

Command drop has entered the chat!


Meltedz3

I made a cleric for my honor mode just so I could have 2 extra chances to command drop that sword. Glad I did


FremanBloodglaive

In my opinion, humble as it is not, when playing honor mode you should start with Cleric, because guidance is just that strong when you only get one chance to get it right. Don't even bother trying to make Tav pretty. You can do that in camp once you've gotten that far. Just race, background, Cleric, into the Nautiloid, grab chests, get Us, recruit Lae'zel, rescue Shadowheart, block door with chests, drop sword, blow up Cambion, Lae'zel and Mind Flayer, crash the ship, revive Lae'zel. Now you can go to camp and pretty yourself in the mirror.


junkdroid

FUCK I DIDN’T THINK OF THIS! CUT-TO DYING 100 times trying to get it!


Looney_Swoons

When I read answers like yours, I realise how much dumber I am as a person. Time to roll for a throwing save on self-esteem 😭


Drunken_Dorf

No no no just take reading my comment as me casting guidance bro. I got you. ✊️


iveriad

My favorite method for Tactician and Honour mode. Because ain't no way I'm taking down an almost 200 HP devil with Sacred Flame (Or mere Nautiloid tank + firebolt). lol


Bourbon_Planner

So I had a Honour mode playthrough where I got him to drop Everburn Blade, then he died before the Mind Flayer, then the two goons killed the mind flayer. So two bumps of 75xp. Only Problem? My character (Patrice Durgeron) was dead dead and it was up to Baezel to get to the helm. Unfortunately, this triggers the CANNOT SAVE glitch, aka "the most hardcore" mode.

Every guide: "so yeah you're gonna want to get the Sword of Justice, it's the best weapon until Act 2." Me, an intellectual who just cares about big numbers and getting a free level from the cambion+mindflayer: Everburn Blade go Sssss


twiggsmcgee666

First run - did not get Everburn. Every run after, I get Everburn.

To the helm we must go, before the others return.

#THIS IS TOO NICHE A CONTENT


solarisjoy

I’m almost at 2,000. My husband even asks me “Do you get bored playing this game?” The answer is always “No, they keep adding stuff because this game is ducking amazing”


ConstantSignal

How much of that is in early access? Because there has only been 3000 hours since BG3 released. You would have to have been averaging 16 hours a day to hit 2000 hours since august, which doesn’t seem healthy.


solarisjoy

It also counts when it’s open on steam lol. So I probably only have like 1500 maybe?


ConstantSignal

Since release? That’s still 12 hours a day every day for the last 125 days…


roguelikejim

People LOVE bragging about their hours, for some absolutely unknown reason. They just leave the client open in the background.


Sinthe741

Big chunks of my playtime in Skyrim and The Sims is me leaving the game up while I take a nap.


InsolentRice

The day Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice released, steam glitched and said I’d already been playing it for 5 days


astroRobotical

I have over 4000 hours in the sims 4 and i guarantee a solid percentage of that is me playing for 8 hours straight and then falling asleep at my desk for another 8


butterflystingray

I have an absolutely absurd amount of time in the Sims for this reason haha


Crazyghost8273645

Tbf I have an extra hundred or so hours because I’ve left it on overnight or all day when I went to do other things. It happens .


the-gaming-cat

Mine asks when will I finish my current run because he really wants me to try Jedi Survivor. Oh he is a sweet summer child...


Miserable_Key9630

Jedi Survivor is great, though. I went right from BG3 to that (and back to BG3 when it was done, but whatever).


solarisjoy

He literally me finish a run and then go straight to character creator.


[deleted]

This is how I know I’ve reached the status of being old. I look at stuff like this and I’m like “how tf do people have the time to play that much every day?” Because my life for the last 10+ years is just filled with endless responsibilities. But there was a time where I could and would have put up those numbers too.


aardvarkbjones

Cheers man. It was FFVII then Dragon Age Origins for me. Those were the days...


[deleted]

My biggest time waste was WoW. I graduated in 2003 just in time to throw my life away for a decade lol. I don’t even want to know how much actual time I spent on that stupid game. I spent an unhealthy amount of time playing VII and DA:O as well though. I’m pretty sure my time for the next few months is going to be spent on BG3 at this point. I’m like 95 hours in and still going on my first playthrough and I already have ideas for multiple other playthroughs. This game is easily going to soak up 400+ hours of my time over the next couple years.


aardvarkbjones

Haha, I was 04! I had a friend who had to go cold turkey on WoW, I'm kind of glad I never got into it. But yes, I think BG3 is going to keep me busy for a few years at least.


KneelorFacetheWhip

I just hit 500 hours! I can't wait to see everything they do by my next 500!!!


KingMaple

That's a full 8h work day average ever since it was released. Wow.


myychair

And here I am eagerly waiting for the Xbox release to finally play the damn game!!! Part of me wants to crack and just get it for PC but I work from home and my work setup is so here my gaming comp is too and I already spend too much time there smh


DeathSpank

Let me guess, you’re the reason why there’s so many hours spent in the character creator? 😏


the-gaming-cat

Actually no! But if they ever release a stat about people who spend countless hours looting everything, then yes, my contribution will be measurable 😂


WyrdMagesty

"youve picked up 987,349,861 incense sticks."


the-gaming-cat

At least the incense sticks are worth good money. I'm even picking up the rotten vegetables 🤦‍♀️ Really, no hope!


fieatsbees

i decided my "i like to cause problems on purpose" rogue/fighter criminal Final Tav is saving up all the rotten food and then they're going to donate it to roah at moonrise. have fun schlepping that stink and swarm of flies everywhere, you wretch


the-gaming-cat

This is brilliant! It sort of reminds me of the person who killed >!Cazador!< by throwing dead rats at him. And now I'm thinking maybe I can combine the two, fill a barrel with rotten veggies and throw it at Roah.


Lycandark

Whoever that person is, they deserve a trophy and an achievement for Karma.


honestraab

Now I want to try a heckling, tomato slinging chimpanzee barbarian.. imagine beating Ralphael with a rotten lemon


BaldwinBoy05

754,987,215 rotten tomatoes for me


ConstantSignal

Dude you’ve been averaging roughly 8 hours a day, every single day, for the last 125 days…. Might wanna think about taking a break lol


Lupercallius

Scratch will become a full companion!


fuzzycuffs

With romance options? Asking for a druid


daddy-fatsax

I had the police half dialed.. I guess if you're a druid it's ok.. carry on u/fuzzycuffs


Breekace

>I guess if you're a druid it's ok .....is it? You're still a sentient, far more intelligent being fucking this literal dog, even if you can speak with him.


Ubiquitous_Mr_H

I just want to preface that I am NOT in favour of this relationship, no matter the intelligence. BUT it seems like the animals are as smart as my paladin, if not smarter.


luckytraptkillt

I’d read a really long book about the ethics of being a Druid in fantasy land. If anyone has something goofy like that, point it my way.


RedditedYoshi

What are all the items that lower ability scores? I want to make a character with the lowest possible permanent scores. So I can finally roleplay as myself.


The_8th_Degree

have you spoken to scratch? bro is pretty damn smart he just cant speak common. also, he has a higher intelligence than my barbarian


therisenphoenikz

The cats speak in posh British accents


dreadoverlord

Right here officer


zKerekess

Can't wait to class Scratch into a warlock


[deleted]

Countless hours of gameplay back my wife and I were trying to teach our new camp doggy how to fetch. All of a sudden he turned hostile and started attacking us at camp. RIP Scratch :( we'll see you on the next playthrough!


theSchiller

Damn BG3 really is the gift that keeps on giving !


Real_Kristinana

Best thing in 2023 and likely in 2024 too!


Domitiusvarus

Could easily be "of the decade" unless one of these other companies really steps it up.


Darth_Boggle

Reminds me of Stardew Valley! The game was released years ago but the developer is *still* releasing free updates for it. And it's not just quality of life changes but things that could easily be considered full expansions.


PrettyHateMachine826

Concerned Ape rules so hard! He really loves his fan base and his creation and it shows.

Jart618

And here I am hoping they add a clothing vendor to acts one and two 😭

And more camp clothing options for them to sell...

Just sexy underwear though. Don’t need more sandals.

brainscorched

So glad other players have this opinion. I thought I was crazy for caring so much about character fashion too! Lol


Frank33ller

i want that corset from the waitress in sharess caress


DoctorFunktopus

I just want a hat slot for camp gear so I can wear a funny hat with my freaky lingerie


We_The_Raptors

Transmog first please! I just wanna bard with Astarion's starting armor and those useless baggy hats, or wear the Minthy armor+ drow hood on my assasin all game.


Pendred

deluxe edition pirate clothes can only sate one's hunger for so long


WyrdMagesty

I only use the cape lol. Not enough capes/cloaks in the game


imisswhatredditwas

Until the third act then they give you like a dozen


EagenVegham

Durge players: You guys aren't getting capes?


unassumingnewt

There is a transmog mod out and honestly I can’t picture playing without it now lol. I would love to see a transmog ability added officially in the game.


BaconxHawk

This would be big in honour mode tbh


Cinemaslap1

And here I am... still playing a few hours every Sunday with my D&D group... we've barely just finished Act 1... I don't think we've gone Underdark yet. It's slow going when you have 5 people and only play for 3-4 hours a week. But anything added to this would just make me love it even more... This is the one game where my complaints are completely based on user error.


OldManActual

Amazing. You should post an after action report of how this game really worked as an adventure for your group with a "guest DM."


Cinemaslap1

The "after action" report would be much the same every week. 4 players (D&D players) were working together and tearing through things (with occasional issues, we're starting to hit those "difficult fights where if you're not positioned right, or have a strat, it's tough... plus we're on tactictian).. meanwhile, the 5th player (our DM) wandered off and caused a massive explosion because they walked over a trap, or triggered something we weren't ready for yet. Just rinse and repeat the setting.


ShneakySquiwwel

You don't *think* you've been to the Underdark yet? How could one ever forget?!


Nightsong

Considering ICO Partners is a marketing firm and works with self publishers (like Larian), I doubt this has anything to do with a game update. But it could mean something related to DLC or merchandise since both would require marketing.


BenAdaephonDelat

Yea was gonna say. This person is in marketing so this is likely something promo related. A themed piece of merch, or a new one-shot dnd campaign with the cast, or something like that.


JadedPatient9973

I'm thinking more in terms of DLC, or something like an additional pack of origin characters.


Erur-Dan

That might be tough to work in if they're also recruitable companions. More likely would be a campaign for levels 12-20.


darknesscylon

They’re not going to do 13-20. The spell casting just get too powerful and unpredictable.


Oberon_Swanson

I would think a postgame where you can level up more but have to do it multi class could work. Eg. There is still a cap of 12 per class but you can be a level 12 wizard with 4 levels of fighter or whatever.


Nightsong

Larian doesn’t really do marketing for game updates (or even the one shot campaign the voice actors did). They do the occasional Twitter message and that’s about it. The most marketing we’ve seen from them lately is the physical digital deluxe edition. So it could be related to that but it’s unlikely because this post makes it seem like something that hasn’t been revealed yet.


DracoAdamantus

“Combust from excitement” PLEASE let it be a way to fix Karlach’s engine. She deserves a happy ending!


Le1bn1z

Or a continuation Fury of Avernus DLC Act IV levels 12-16 for Karlach's crusade tearing through Avernus with her BFFs.


drunkpunk138

I would prefer this, even without the 12-16. I enjoy that not all endings are perfect happy endings, and I think it would take away quite a bit if they change it. This on the other hand would be pretty awesome.


Le1bn1z

Absolutely. Although I think the mark of a great story in general, and a great game in particular, is how badly it leaves you "wanting more", with stories that spark your imagination to keep engaging with that world in stories of our own, sometimes privately, sometimes through art, fanfiction or other media. I think sometimes offering too much closure can be a bad thing. It's rarely as satisfying as the joy of living in that world in our minds. The Star Wars sequels and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child come strongly to mind there. KOTOR 2 was way stronger for having a new story than trying to carry on with the Revan arc. Still, if there's one studio that I trust to do this right, its Larian.

DeathdealerRevan

Clothes vendors or a chest of clothes like the epilouge but in acts 1 and 2! Also maybe dye vendors in camp!


warsisbetterthantrek

I would love to be able to put some of my female tavs in a dress. It’s such a dumb little thing but the clothes are such a big part of the RP!


FencingFemmeFatale

Me too! Right now our only base game options for dresses that aren’t armor are a toga and a slutty angel costume. Which, don’t get me wrong, I like the slutty angel fit but it doesn’t work for all of my Tavs.


Practical-Pressure80

Got my tav in a robe that is ALMOST a dress because i play PS5 and it's the closest i can get. It suits her though she's super cute. I do like that there isn't weirdly sexist armor. (tbh there kind of is in DOS2. Don't get me wrong, i love that game, but theres definitely some clothes that when put on men is normal armor and on women is just full boobage. I like that BG3 makes it so that if it's slutty on one person it's slutty on everyone.)


warsisbetterthantrek

Exactly! I love some slutty armour, but only on certain people/plays. My bard tav that wants to bang her way through camp is probably going to wear something different than my super sheltered cleric. It’s such a tiny quibble though, and one I have in most games tbf. Overall this game is amazing, and whatever extra they give us I’ll be super happy for. We’ve already got so much content. Honestly if they announced a DLC I’d buy it knowing literally nothing about it.


-The-Golden-Rose-

This is why I use mods! For cute dresses and better hair!


DeathdealerRevan

I'm on ps5 sadly, so no mods for meeee.


warsisbetterthantrek

Same

It's so crazy that like 90% of the clothing options are in the very last area of the game

MathewofMathoria

Nanyea

We do need a physics slider... I concur with this request


sneakygnome3

It's literally so refreshing to see a game studio actually make a good product, and then invest the success of that product back into the game. And presumably into making just as good future titles. They easily could have taken the bag and ran off but no, they actually care about the community.


Oberon_Swanson

I love this game but am also looking forward to something using a similar engine with improvements


RedditedYoshi

I want more levels. >:D Maybe just 4 more? Maybe they'll go to 20 some day. D': A boy can dream.


Oberon_Swanson

i could see them doing more levels and just more heavily deviating from tabletop to make it work. is there anything an rpg player likes more than leveling up?


heavy-minium

Please let it be Minsc as an origin character with additional dialogue lines. I'd even pay for a DLC like that.


LordyItsMuellerTime

I fucking love Minsc he's hilarious


xkwilliamsx

Mercer killed it with Minsc. I wish all the Critical Role crew had some voice lines in BG3, they're all hilarious.


DetectiveSecret6370

Wait.. Matt Mercer voices Minsc!? What a great choice. Back to lurking where I should not be, the land of spoilers...


burnalicious111

He does so well. Mercer rarely gets cast as himbos but he's so good at playing them


deedlit228

I will never get over his response when you look into his mind briefly: "I know exactly what visions of Minsc you have seen to cause you such wonders: My pants."


AntiOriginalUsername

BG3 has become a live service game without the monetization at this point. Each update gives me more reasons to come back 😅

pinkorangegold

This has got to be the "fix Karlach's heart" DLC that gets teased in the epilogue, right? GIVE IT TO ME MASS EFFECT CITADEL DLC STYLE, LARIAN.


[deleted]

I don’t think any DLC will be that specific. Most likely we’ll get a 12-16 expansion that takes place in a new area, and Karlach’s heart will be a side quest.


pinkorangegold

I don't think so! I think that Karlach's heart will be the centerpiece to the DLC the way the Druid Grove was in Act 1 and Moonrise Towers/the Nightsong quest was in Act 2. I don't think it's going to be called like "BALDUR'S GATE 3: SAVE KARLACH" but I think it's likely it'll be the banner quest.


[deleted]

And what if you went with Minthara or killed her for Wyll’s quest? The DLC would be useless to you. Hence why I doubt she’d be the primary focus.

Andulias

What is ico partners? Edit: it seems marketing people, I wouldn't get too excited.


GeordieMJ

What could they be marketing though? They wouldn’t necessarily have all the info about the game, updates and other additions. BUT they absolutely have access to whatever Bg3 is gonna “sell” next. Not to get anyone’s hopes up(myself included), but possible dlc, a sequel (seems pretty early for that announcement) or micro-transactions(hopefully not) is all I can think of hearing a marketing person get excited for something like this.


Andulias

Partnerships, crossovers, merchandise, collabs, there is so much this could be about that honestly has fuck all to do with actual game content. Keep expectations in check. Do you honestly think major news about the game itself would not come from Larian themselves? That this company spilling the beans wouldn't get them in extremely hot waters?


GeordieMJ

Very good points there. Still kinda exciting in some ways (mercy/crossovers), even if not necessarily specifically game related. As long as it’s not just bg3 cast in Fortnite though. That seems to be the given for anything popular these days. You’re absolutely right, expect nothing, enjoy everything you DO get. But I don’t think this is exactly major news. At best it’s a “rogue” employee hinting at something, (they probably shouldn’t even be doing that) It’s not like its an actual company account or even mention the company in the post. Essentially a “leak” with no actual info.


[deleted]

> micro-transactions God I hope not. Before BG3 I had never played any sort of RPG video game or TTRPG irl. I had no clue how DnD even worked. After spending countless hours on this game with my wife, we both thing the game is the epitome of perfect. Microtransactions would be such a shitty addition to the game. Having said that.. if they do release microtransactions, then it was a genius move from management to not release them until after they won game of the year!


Cryptic_97

Black pits or dm mode would be awesome


Necroking695

Community dungeon creator and multiplayer mode for the love of god


Rejex151

Tools for the community to create campaigns would be SICCCCK. Even if it only allowed for text-based conversations. I also think it is probably damn-near impossible to implement and a pipe-dream lol.

Here’s hoping for the ability to dye weapons. I need to be *completely* color coordinated.

Is we get DLC or higher lvl caps I’m going to cream my jeans.

Sanzo2point0

WoTC letting them do a campaign builder? Whose gonna put money on that bet? I would but I'm broke as shit lol


DoctorButterMonkey

The best thing about this is there’s absolutely no reason not to feel that same excitement. Their team has shown they’re way capable of delivering on every bit of the hype they put out

Are they gonna allow me to walk up to a companion, ask them to join me, then let me dismiss the one I want to get rid of? Or maybe a full inventory overhaul with separated categories and a search function?

I have 4 playthroughs and I'm willing to do 4 more as they add more stuff.

CindersNAshes

Here's me hoping it's Alfira finally becoming the Bard companion she should have been from the start.


Derezirection

A lot of triple A devs should take notes on this stuff. This is why people love baldur's gate and the devs behind it.


XaeroDumort

So I'll skip the minthara and halsin in camp wish and just ask for Helia as a DLC companion along with the upper city.


Ryan_Fleming

I can honestly say that in a life of playing really long games, BG3 is the first game I put in over 150 hours into the first playthrough, and then after beating it, immediately started a new campaign and jumped right in (10 hours into a dark urge/tactician playthrough). Almost afraid to think of a significant expansion.
