I play a wizard specifically so I can stunt on him in every dialogue where he does his "oh, I'm the most effortlessly talented wizard ever" bullshit.

The worst part is, as a wizard, he is easily the most OP member of the party as well, so I find unless I pick a wizard/sorcerer as a player character, he's pretty much mandatory.

meh, I like him, and I hate Ricky Gervais

Lmao now that you mention it even though I've only played like 1 hour of this game and just met him, he does kinda give those vibes. I don't totally hate him yet, he reminds me of Moss from The IT Crowd.

People keep calling Karlach that, I read her as more of a brash young lesbian with a traumatic past that really needs supportive friends and a hug.

Now Jaehira, that's a muscle mommy.

I'm more surprised that people here Like Lae'zel so much. I've only just started playing but she gives massive fash vibes

Second the Minsc comment. He comes in so late that I feel like I didn't get enough time in camp to see everything.

The only thing that saves Wyll is that his romance line is the most adorable tenderqueer shit imaginable, marred only by his incredible vanillaness.

She said one sentence to my tiefling after I released her from her cage and I regretted it instantly

TBF Shadowheart is the protagonist of the game for some reason.

She's pretty and nice

Because she and Minthara are the only "classically attractive" female companions and the majority of Hexbear users are still female-attracted people with relatively average standards for attractiveness. And Minthara isn't available until the later chapters.

Hot take: Shadowheart as the main character is the best choice because you don't have to deal with her being an emo weirdo. Just respec into whatever class you want. Also you get better understanding of her backstory, and romancing Laezel or Karlach is extremely spicy. Also, to be the gothiest person alive you can go the evil route and romance Minthara.

In terms of whose quips I enjoy most, its definitely Astarion. Hes so fucking gay, hes dripping with gay

i played a few hours and was gonna vote for her purely due to disliking her the least out of the starter companions before i saw the girl reading this

her backstory and quest are the most fleshed out and tied to the story, the main quest should have been more about Shar/Selune instead of the scuffed mindflayer bullshit, imo

yeah. i didn't let her go blonde, so i assume i must have missed part of the appeal, but i really don't get it. everyone else is so much more fun. until i saw all those polls etc i wouldn't even have guessed that she had fans. she's kind of just... there

The big brain move is to play as shadowheart and romance laezel.

SPOILERS, i suppose.

I actually tried befriending the goblins, but in this game they genuinely make them truly evil and despicable in every way. It honestly sticks out like a sore thumb. Burning down what is basically a church to the god of Hosting (one of the more primeval sins), eating people, bullying, slavery, lying, cheating, etc..

It's honestly kind of weird because even Devils have some nuance in these games and there was some attempt to make goblins just genetically predisposed towards sadism and evil.

you can ally with the goblin camp, thats what i did. if you go to the jail in the tiefling camp you can find a goblin in a cage who will take you back to the camp and let you join them (and then you can do the 'evil' run, which is great fun (AND you get minthara my beloved))
