I like to do lore dives, scene parallels, and/or dig through game files. Fashionably late to the BG3 fandom, but, here now.
As a kid playing COD & Halo on 360, they said: "video games will make you violent!"
As an adult playing BG3 on PC they are saying: "Ascended Astarion will make you violent, but in a sexy way?"
Latina in STEM turning my intrusive thoughts into content instead of writing; my villain arc started with grad school & reviewer 2 is my nemesis!

BG3 | Amelyssan confirms DU + Ascended Astarion cuddle as the world ends [AA-specific dialogue]
Act 3 - Murder Tribunal. If playing as Durge, you can find this interaction with the echo of Amelyssan, [former high priestess of Bhaal] - that confirms Ascended Astarion's "lovers forever," comments. She throws in that you'll be cuddling as the stars collapse from the heavens. IDK what this looks like in Faerûn, so I threw in an animation from NASA.

BG3 | Astarion Wants to Ascend - A Dialogue Compilation: Part 1 - Power
Переглядів 42121 день тому
A compilation of as many dialogue options that I could find where Astarion either suggests or clearly states that he wants to ascend. In an attempt to avoid bias - I focused on replies to a player who has selected neutral dialogue or dialogue that disagrees with him [i.e., I didn’t include responses from Astarion when the player is actively in agreement with him]. I only show the relevant parts...
BG3 | Vulnerable Moments with Ascended Astarion - He Misses Durge
Переглядів 1,4 тис.Місяць тому
Context: Dark Urge breaks up with Ascended Astarion & selects the dialogue option "but the palace halls will be lonely." He disagrees. 6 months later at the epilogue, he admits that he misses the player, and that he's lonely without them. I do wish there was a single neutral dialogue option when breaking up with AA.
BG3 | Comparing Ascended Astarion to Cazador - Is his anger an overreaction or is it understandable?
Переглядів 2 тис.Місяць тому
This conversation comes from a dialogue option that allows a player who is romancing Astarion to compare him to Cazador [his abuser of the past 200 years] if Astarion ascends. Interesting that it happens less than 24-hours [the first long rest] after Astarion confronts Cazador. At this point in the game, the only major thing in the story that has taken place was ascension - an act that companio...
BG3 | Does a romanced Astarion's love of Tav/Durge depend on ascension? A dialogue comparison
Переглядів 2 тис.Місяць тому
There's a viewpoint that romanced Astarion is a completely different vampire if he ascends. Frequently, the scenes post-ascension are used as "evidence", including the difference in how he tells Tav/Durge he loves them. Interestingly, after playing both paths, I didn't see a huge difference with Astarion [there is a difference in the dialogue options for the player - which, for the AA path, lea...

Durge sprinkles a bit of sazón on her Vampire, leveling him up to his final form, Vampapi - I mean, the Vampire Ascendant. Playing through the UA and AA paths again and I love the confidence Astarion gains post-ascension. Song is here: ua-cam.com/video/ctDXLCs_9NE/v-deo.html
BG3 | Astarion's vampire bride: A comparison of in-game scenes to Van Richten's Guide to Vampires
Переглядів 30 тис.2 місяці тому
The turning process for the player doesn't match the description from Astarion when he describes how he was turned into a vampire by Cazador... begging the question, what kind of vampire is the player after being turned by a romanced ascended Astarion? In this video, I've compared in-game scenes between AA and dark urge with text from Van Richten's Guide to Vampires [freely available online]. O...
