@semanticist I’m on my second playthrough, I am obsessed. What sort of character are your role playing?

@natbuckley Human warlock, playing it as a good character, recently shacked up with Shadowheart. Bit gutted that I fucked up act two and didn’t do *anything* toward removing the curse, I missed the one guy that starts pointing you in the right direction and just assumed it would resolve as part of the main quest. Had to look it up after to figure out what I did wrong!

@semanticist oh wow! Yes, this game lets you make choices (or have accidents) that don’t necessarily make things fun or more interesting. On my first run I killed Shadowheart as one thing led to another with Lae’zel, and didn’t meet Astarion until the end of act 2 when I looked up why I still haven’t met the guy so prominently featured on the loading screen… I simply missed that area lol

@natbuckley Yeah, I nearly missed Lae’zel in a similar way - first time out I missed the place where you find her in a a cage, and had to look up what happens next out of fear I’d missed her forever! (You get her elsewhere in act 1. I suspect there’s fallbacks for most companions. They put a lot of time and effort into that side of the game!)
