Honestly i think a DLC set in Avernus with the player and Karlach raiding the forge and fixing her engine (and possibly even confronting Zariel) would be an awesome experience and a fun round to play! Know it would be difficult since the various possible endings and outcomes, but even if just a stand alone "alternate" playthrough DLC, im sure a lotta people including myself would enjoy it a lot.
If they ever make a dlc I hope they include a mindflayer player character returning to normal or gaining a new body, I didn’t finish the game because I couldn’t accept turning anyone into a mindflayer: honestly I fear that turning karlach would eventually turn her into another Balduran/emperor and turning Orpheus would doom the Githyanki
I can't lie, I always make sure Karlach goes to Avernus and my head canon is somewhere down the line, romance or not, we find a way to fix her heart and she comes back to Faerun permanently. But that speech Withers gives to a Tav who romanced and lost Karlach at the end and how he reassures Tav that they'll be reunited with Karlach when they pass is tragically beautiful. Withers is truly best bro, especially to redeemed Dark Urge.
There's no need. The heroes of Neverwinter already deal with Zariel. Well, one variation of that campaign. But, minor spoilers, Zariel isn't defeated, she is redeemed. You'd have to look it up and see.
Honestly I don’t see how people think going to Avernus with her is a bad ending especially with epilogue patch showing that not only can our character survive in hell but basically become a doom slayer with Karlach feels like they put a good ending for her after all especially with the hint of expansion fixing her heart once and for all
Especially since karlach literally tells you that she found some blueprints that could possibly fix her engine like how could anyone settle for any other ending for karlach ik i cant have any other ending to the game
@@Brodes235 There's also the alternative where Karlach becomes a mindflayer and doesn't go to Hell. Orpheus goes after Vlaakith. The Emperor, the Netherbrain and all the tadpoles are dead. Gale is alive. That's a much better ending to some people than going to Hell.
Really do love how much Dungeon Master energy they gave Withers in these epilouges Like a DM happy to see thier chaotic group of gremlins, find an end to their stories
I romanced shadowheart but when her engine was about to blow I went with her not as her lover, but as her friend, no way I could leave her alone. Also the Hell ending isn't a romance ending, if you just close to her (have her on green approval ratting) you can always choose at the end to go with her I guess, maybe don't even need the approval but don't know.
@@nairav9156It's, if I recall, based on if you completed her side quest, same with if you completed Wyll's and have him named "Blade of Avernus", then you can also get the coolest and all time BEST ending possible, where the three of you can go kick Demon ass! That is one I am going to actively pursue
Thanks for posting this. I romanced Karlach in my first playthrough before the epilogue patch came out and then deleted the file to make room for my second playthrough. Glad to know there's some hope of a happy ending for her.
It'd be so sick for the avernus ending when karlach charges forward if it goes into a final combat againts some hellish combatants like the credits in devil may cry 5, vergil and dante fighting endlessly
Given withers speech at the end. The DLC most likely will happen after the end of the game so when you went with you girl to avernus you probably just return at the beginning having solved the issue off screen. Wouldn't mind that to much to be honest.
Karlach is the best without a doubt. Be she alive in the Nine Hells or alive as a mind flayer, Karlach is a woman worth having and falling in love with. There has to be a way for her to fix her heart and or change herself as the mind flayer. Karlach is my woman for life.
The problem is that as a Mind Flayer its no longer a woman, Illithid's dont have biological sex. It lives as a Mind Flayer thinks as a Mind Flayer does things to survive as a Mind Flayer, outside of some parts of the personality its not the original Karlach anymore. It's the Illithid with Karlach memories that can emulate Karlach thru manipulation and illusion which are Mind Flayers language, it's what Empy tells u directly when's put under the pressure in the end.
I'm sad to burst the bubble but I really don't think they're hinting at DLC for Karlach. Keep in mind some playthroughs kill her at the start, in some she dies, in some she's an illithid. It wouldn't make sense to make a whole expansion for an ending that maybe half the people got.
The expansion can just be going to Avernus for another separate reason, and if you have Karlach, then that’s a side bit you can do along with the DLC’s main story. It doesn’t necessarily have to be the main narrative.
Yeah but, this is Larian we're talking about. They make content for the slim minority just for the hell of it, because they know people will explore it
They don't need to confirm something as canon bro. They can do what Bioware is doing a continue the story from a perspective playthrough. Your story is canon and ended with the epikogue but if you went with karlach to avernus then your canon story can continue.
it probably wont happen but if larian wants karlach back theres plenty they could come up with. true resurrection, the same thing that happened to yurgir or something else. i held onto that true resurrection scroll for the entire game and wouldve liked a meaningful reason to use it
Ok I thought some of the other char endings were romantic, yet that is some true f***ing love right there, kissing the slimy bulbous upper nasal bridge of your turned-illithid girlfriend because what counts is on the inside. Damn
When Zariel hears the latin chorus rising when Karlach and a dragonborn monk specced in unarmed combat kick down her door. "Foul demon you shall be kindling to the Tarnished" 'wtf, this is Baulders gate this isnt dark souls'
Unpopular opinion but I feel like the best for her is to become a Mind Flayer. Because she doesn’t have to go back to avernus, her engine is not a problem anymore and because at least her soul is gonna go to Ilsensine and not with Zariel when she dies (regardless of the game and Withers telling you ilithids are soulless , that’s just not canon). Regardless, both outcomes are the best if she stays with you or Wyll, that’s just how she will be happier.
Nah the mortal soul is send away to Fugue Plane or lost completely when host dies while transforming into Mind Flayer. The soul that will go to Ilsensine is separate entity created from/in the tadpole.
@@OnTheAlmondTree Ok, but in Neverwinter Nights 3, Icewind Dale 3, a CRPG Waterdeep, a CRPG Chronicles of Mystara or a CRPG Dragonlance, they better have guns, top hats , steampunk jet packs and steampunk robots.
@@samflood5631 why are you acting like cigars are some incredible technological invention? it's tobacco leaves wrapped in a different tobacco leaf. the european cultures that those fantasy settings are based on didn't have them until the age of discovery because tobacco only grew in the americas, not because making a cigar requires sophisticated machinery (it doesn't).
4:41 Wait really? I was playing as a Karlach avatar rather than with her as a companion, so I never got this option :( So are we just stuck in Avernus permanently, then?
How do I get this ending? It seems like I’ve did everything right I chose the ending where me and karlach go to Avernus, but I didn’t get the epilogue?
1. She goes back to Avernus by herself, with you if you romanced her, or with Wyll (Wyll needs to become the Blade of Avernus). 2. Let her become a Mind Flayer 3. She dies from the infernal engine. You can consider this saving her as she lived the rest of her life on her own terms, instead of being controlled or returning to Avernus.
so she goes to avernus and comes back for the epilogue? damn, my wyll lost his powers and i didn't romance karlach so i didnt go with her to avernus, so she died. im not too upset because her death was an amazing scene, but next playthrough ill have to save her for sure@@adolfosaldivar9601

@@sixgm227Descent into Avernus with her statblock:
@@sixgm227 For karalach ? Hell yea
I feel like the ending issue can be overcome with Karlach (or a new stand-in character) effectively summoning us to Avernus / putting out the call

Withers being Jergal, literally planning a party. The god of death planned a night out 😂😂
He's your literal divine patron, and he shells out for the kegger. Madlad.
I mean he's canonically on vacation. Man spent his time off fucking with his replacements and throwing a rager. Absolute legend.
Hands down, the most British comment section I've ever seen on yt. Fair play lads.
Withers is the DM’s ‘Gandalf’ and honestly I fucking love it.
But he's not a god anymore. Is he? It was my understanding that he gave that up to the dead three.

Karlach lighting a blunt with her thumb is my favorite scene ever. It makes me laugh so much
Pretty sure it’s a cigar, but honestly that seems funnier, so that’s now gonna be my head cannon
She really pulled a Hellboy
I honestly think it is a cannagar cause devil’s lettuce 👀
Wow. Withers is an Ultimate Bro, bringing everyone back together for a feast.
Really do love how much Dungeon Master energy they gave Withers in these epilouges
Like a DM happy to see thier chaotic group of gremlins, find an end to their stories
I love this ending but damn, I can't get over the player characters goofy ass run at 1:30
Heart reforged? sounds like an expansion.
We don't deserve Karlach

Zariel bout to shit herself when she starts hearing "the only thing they fear is you"
Karlach arrives to confront Zariel and doom guy is just standing over her corpse like “oh you wanted to kill this one, my bad.”
Seeing one of my mains is a Male Teifling Paladin of the Platinum Dragon.
OH YEAH.
Thanks for posting this. I romanced Karlach in my first playthrough before the epilogue patch came out and then deleted the file to make room for my second playthrough. Glad to know there's some hope of a happy ending for her.
Mods prevented me from seeing the epilogue. Thank god for this video. Karlach deserved this!
I started new gameplay for it XD
00:00:00 - Avernus Human
00:06:47 - Karlach Dies
00:09:03 - Karlach Becomes Mindflayer
00:14:53 - Avernus Mindflayer
@NaughtyGaming Ah my favorite girl great way to start the morning. Who's next Lae'Zel?
Damn that outfit looks so good on her!!!
Why don't the merry band of badasses all go to Avernus, maybe with an allied army or two, and take that forge then portal back?
I hope to fight Zariel in a future dlc
Karlach calling the player a goon is so funny
Love Withers empathy for Tav if Karlach died.
I ve NEVER asked for this - adam janson
You ve asked for this - Karlach
A lot of hints at the end about a possible DLC/Expansion 👀 fingers crossed.
Had to stop watching the video I’m currently romancing karlach right now I’m so excited for a happy ending
It'd be so sick for the avernus ending when karlach charges forward if it goes into a final combat againts some hellish combatants like the credits in devil may cry 5, vergil and dante fighting endlessly

Origin karlach can romance Gale. If so, he can turn her into a goddess and fix her heart has a result
Of course I get a BG3 ad at the beginning of the video XD
13:09 LOL
I think it's funny how she hands a squid a cigar. Like, how is it going to smoke that thing😂
kinda cute how they essentially kiss their illithid partner on the nose :D
She does look like she tries to find a mouth 😅

The ilithid kiss on the forehead had me rolling
Protagonist: "Can I have a kiss?"
Karlach: "C'mere you goon"
Protagonist: "Ooooo I'm gonna flay your mind"
It would be an amazing plot twist if doom slayer is karlach and tav/wyll's son
"Hey Withers! Check out our kid!"
*heavy metal intensifies
Withers: " . . . oh, you shall be a treat."
Lovley, do Astarion's please
AWW, Karlach kissing mindflayer Tav is just soo cuuutee I can't 😍🥰🥹🥹🥹♥️

Doomslayer romance ending. Haha, love it.
mindflayer kiss i was kind of expecting the tentacles to wrap around the face for 'make out' rather than nose of head kiss
When Zariel hears the latin chorus rising when Karlach and a dragonborn monk specced in unarmed combat kick down her door. "Foul demon you shall be kindling to the Tarnished" 'wtf, this is Baulders gate this isnt dark souls'
Woulda been a prefect Michael bay ending with Linkin park

Well, i do not care if Zariel is god. Anything can be target for eldrich blast.
How do I get this ending? It seems like I’ve did everything right I chose the ending where me and karlach go to Avernus, but I didn’t get the epilogue?
New patch
You just have to update your game, my guy and you are good to go.
Have to have a save prior final boss then beat the game and u get it
Someone add some Linkin Park to that charge scene
Ok I ❤️ this ending way more than the original ending
Quick question, do you have to be a human for the first ending, "Avernus Human"? Hopefully not because that seems like the best ending.🤔🤨
9:16 = WTF??? What happened to Karlach???
how does she react to you if she went to avernus with wyll instead?
What armor does Karlach have in the first half of the video?
It’s her special outfit for the epilogue, same as all the other companions
After the leap to avernus? I believe its the bonespike armor, great little set of clothing for a barbarian
C'MON LARIAN! GIVE US AVERNUS EXPANSION T_T
If you decide to let Karlach go and end yourself as a mindflayer does it let you stick around to see her off?
A DLC with her And Will since I sent both there would be great with the rest of the party coming down to help
Has no one done a Karlach x Shadowheart pairing?!
Its a real shame we don't have a happy ending .
Why cant he RESURRECT her?
Damn, now I feel terrible that I let her die :(
Wtf if this ending 🤣🤣 a cigar running in slow motion like it’s a game ending from the early 2000’s
Do they have Clocks in the Forgotten Realms?
Does karlach live if you let wyll join her?
Yes if he’s the Blade of Avernus
if karlach become god with gale she will be saved
I'm so pissed that Karlach won't get a DLC or that BG4 is not happening. Larian Studios is making a big mistake.
To be fair, I'm proud of Larian. And in my headcanon they'll find the forge.
Definitely dlc
Why is Lae'Zel purple
How do I get thus ending???
I love Withers so much, but the writers are using reeeeeaally bad grammar for him.
L take
how do you save her????
1. She goes back to Avernus by herself, with you if you romanced her, or with Wyll (Wyll needs to become the Blade of Avernus).
2. Let her become a Mind Flayer
3. She dies from the infernal engine. You can consider this saving her as she lived the rest of her life on her own terms, instead of being controlled or returning to Avernus.
so she goes to avernus and comes back for the epilogue? damn, my wyll lost his powers and i didn't romance karlach so i didnt go with her to avernus, so she died. im not too upset because her death was an amazing scene, but next playthrough ill have to save her for sure@@adolfosaldivar9601
