I love how both Astarion and Shadowheart play off the attempted bite as a form of flirting but then there is Lae'zel who is like "b*tch I will bite back!" 🤣🤣🤣
I see it as him being sarcastic as a lighthearted joke and treats you like a baby vampire because you and everyone else in the camp basically tells him that same exact thing within the first 10 days of playing, which makes it even funnier.
I like how Astarion is the only one that thinks its a possession, therefore, he mocks the creature rather than you. Meanwhile, Laezel, "Bitch, I'll cut you"
Gotta love the progression from the first three's immediate responses Karlach: Aww, did you have a bad dream? Astarion: Someone want some affection? Shadowheart: *Ay ya wanna fu-*
in my first playthrough her asking if the mood struck me and she was willing, i was just like "Wtf, shadowheart we only had 1 night of talking. You havent tried to go any further, but here i am wanting to MURDER you and you're giving the option now?"
Karlach : bold of you to try Astarion : hmmm kinky ShadowHeart : bad dog! Wyll : i see... Gale : [internal screaming] Lae'zel : *bites you back to assert dominance *
Love how Karlach growls back, Laezel says she'll bite back, Wyll and Gale take your outburts as therapeutic for you and Shadowheart yells at you like a cat
That would’ve been cool. How would it work. Scripted loss, you lose/win and get another cutscene to regain control, the rest of the party stops you both, you win & kill her, or she kills you if you loss💀?
one of the romance scenes with her is literally her waking you up and squaring up with you. Losing or winning the fight results in you getting laid, its great. the loss is better for her character development tho
@@jeffzheng6372 I romanced her with my warlock, and she straight up one shot me, to absolutely no one's surprise. My sleeping bag was covered in my own blood for the rest of the game.
Me: I have these uncontrollable urges to kill people at random, I have no control over myself, I fear I may hurt you too. Camp: lmao ok, use that on our enemies instead ok bud? Now let's get going.
In act 1 I told her that I was bloodthirsty and she was like "Good. That's a sign you're a fierce warrior, just be selective about what you murder". She was basically enabling me lol
I love how everyone's like, ooh sexy time! Wait, you don't look too good... Then when you explain, they're all a mix of flattered, concerned, and a little offended, lol
@@geno3849mayhaps the tadpole has the unintended side effect of inceased libido, or maybe knowing theres a parasite killing them and they have a limited time left sends their sex drives into overdrive.
I mean it's an actual strategy if someone is histerical being louder and shouting at them can get them to snap out of it mostly out of fear but it still works
I love that Astarion says him and the urge might’ve been friends before, cause it shows he’s changing as a person and prefers the ‘good’ person he’s come to know
Honestly I get the sense he thinks your possessed. Like some spirit has literally hijacked your body. When he says that he's trying to address the thing possessing you
in essence: Asterion and Wyll are just treating this like something they know, which makes sense. They immediately have empathy for the situation and treat you like a sick person. Gale, Shadowheart and Karlach are weirded out and a little grumpy about it, but nonetheless want to help you Lae'zel is fucking delighted. Jackpot in the murder waifu department, just need a better time and place.
i'm cackling about how you described this. couldn't have said it better. i also love how Shadowheart jsut talks like you're a misbehaving animal. amnd Karlach just growls back haha
To me Karlach felt more like "Awww, it's sweet you thought you could hurt me if you tried!". Wyll reminds me of animal rescue around anxious aggressive animals. Astarion is "been there, done that", quite probably disassociating from his worst self and applying the same logic to Durge. But Shadowheart and Lae'zel just crack me up with the former's kindergarten teacher and the latter's "I'm equally horny and pissed about this" behaviour.
I feel like Gale was actually very disturbed and a little offended, but shart and karlach were more just like "noo, bad dog" and "how cute that you think you could take me.."
"Has the mood struck you love? I suppose we could try, if you think the others won't stir" Shadowheart is hitting the same note in my soul that Sheego did when I was much younger.
I just realized Astarian always knew about Alfira. Took me a while to remember that High Elves don't sleep, plus he's a vampire so he wouldn't sleep anyway, and they even show that he doesn't. When you end each day, you get a cutscene of everyone sleeping with their hands across their chest. Astarian's are to his side with his palms facing up as if he's meditating. Elves trance for a long rest. Even if you perfectly hide the body, if you talk to him after the Urge, he refers to you as "My knife-happy friend"
One nitpick: this applies to all kinds of elves in D&D, including wood elves and drow, so neither Halsin nor Minthara are going to be sleeping in camp, they'll be in trance as well. But elves still CAN sleep. They don't need to and typically don't, but they can.
It's more that he understands he can't empathize fully with what's going on in Durge's head. He's not the one wrestling with the urge to kill people, thus the "theoretically" in that statement. He's with you but he doesn't know what you're experiencing.
Astarion is chillin and is like "oh its probably demonic possession 🤷♂️ " meanwhile Gale always wants to kill himself at any minor inconvenience they're both so me coded
No bc actually in my durge run I volunteered gale to go up on stage with Dribbles and he made a pissy comment about how he could blow himself up at any moment and I was like baby don't be a drama queen
To be fair, all of them are xperienced adventurers/fighters. In a world like theirs, and with their amount of combat experience, we can expect them to be as mentally strong as they are.
I need a ten hour compilation of Astarion's little "Well Hello!"s They're just so cute! ❤ Definitely love when he talks about Dark Urge biting him as if he hasn't tried biting people. But at least it shows he's grown.
@joenani Honestly Lae'zel seemed to be the one that took it most serious. Focus that energy on our enemies. If you feel the urge we will find you a goblin, ect. I think she is the best good option for urge, while Minthara is obviously the WORST.
I like how they're all exactly what I thought each of them would be like, and then Shadowheart comes in like a mom swatting you with a newspaper for throwing a tantrum.
I love how everyone is trying to call you down… Meanwhile Shadowheart is treating you like a bad dog, Astarion thinks is kinky, then there’s Lae’zel who just goes “I’ll bite ya back, don’t think I won’t!”
I love how your companions are like "Why didn't you tell us? We could've helped!", but when you do in fact tell them, they're like "omg you're so quirky, ok let's go on now"
i always thought astarion's reaction was the best even though i never saw the other ones. after seeing this? astarion's is still the best along with karlach's. cause unlike others, they understand you. they're not afraid, not mad, not disgusted, they both joke (astarion saying we ask before we bite and karlach straight up roaring). they also didn't *demand* answers, nor said anything that would make your character feel worse (like shadowheart showing fear and saying stay back, lae'zel straight up saying she'll kill you).
If someone *had the urge to kill me and said they didn’t want to, the first step to helping them is figuring out what the fuck is going on. I mean - it seems like Tav already fucking killed someone in camp already. Everyone was extremely calm and understanding, considering. I know this is fantasy but I’m starting to feel like I’m the crazy one.
I feel like this scene in particular hints that the Dark Urge was originally the Werewolf character that was scrapped. With the mentions of "the beast that killed Alfira", the attempt to bite, the growling, and Astarion mentioning that it will be over by dawn, this all feels like a remnant from the Werewolf. Honestly, as much as I like Durge, I think I would've preferred the Werewolf.
@@LeFisheboi For me it's actually the other way around. I feel Durge makes more sense because of their connection to the plot and one of the main villlains, and I think the Werewolf could've had a more interesting dynamic with the party, especially since you could've had it as an NPC as well.
@jindo5 Durge is a whole new can of worms because we know what its making us do but no clue as to a why vs. Werewolves who we already know the settings lore on and what their gonna do and the entire dilemma there, the mystery factor is much more intriguing Also, me and many other ppl would kill a werewolf npc on sight because they don't wanna lose several npcs for this 1, Durge being PC only makes that call impossible to make because your the problem and you need allies
Karlach and Astarions responses to Dark Urge are just so utterly caring. You can see that they know what it’s like to not be in control but they won’t judge you for it and just want you to be ok.
Gale: You should have confided in me sooner. Gale when Durge confesses: As regards to your own morbid little fantasies, I'm sure they're nothing to worry about! EVERY COMPANION REACTED THIS WAY WHEN DURGE TOLD THEM FOR THE FIRST TIME WTF 😡😡
Karlach is like VIBING with the urge, Asterion is like... "i totally get the biting, but like... not now", Shadowheart is hyper chill cause "from one edgy bih to another i gotchu" also BAD DOG STAY DOWN!, Wyll is like.. " a Mental Battle? AYO WE GOT THIS IN THE BAG, HOLD ON! FIGHT THAT SHIT" (cute Avatar btw), Gale is like... "so uh... this magic is uhm.. mildy concerning... we gonna have to fix that...also geez you got rabies? the heck?", lae'zel is like... "IMMA FIGHT THE FUK OUTTA YOUR URGE, but also IMMA BITE YOU BACK BITCH!! I WILL NOT HESITATE TO CUT CHU UP!"
Durge, five seconds after meeting everyone: "My blood tells me to kill." Everyone, when Durge's blood tries to make them kill people: "Why didn't you tell me sooner?!"
Leave it to this game to have everybody waking up horny af (except Karlach for understandable reasons). Wyll, Gale and surprisingly enough Astarion were the sweetest/least threatening (or maybe that just exposes my clear preference for men). My favorites in no particular order are Karlach (she's just so cute🤭), Astarion (supportive flirty puppy, he could genuinely relate and it shows🥺) and Lae'zel (she was ready to end you....and digging it🤣).
Astarion most certainly did not wake up horny. Considering you can only get this scene after his official "I don't want sex" confession, bro meant it when he offered a cuddle
I got this scene at the beggining of act 2, fighting Marcus was one of the first things i did ( after the cutscene with the Butler), im not even close to moonrise towers, where Astarion's confession usually triggers.
I love how everyone else reacts to the bite attempt. Meanwhile Wyll: Hmm. Considering these syptoms.... fiend?... or just some curse? A true monster hunter.
It's a good thing that you pass out after telling them, because I don't think some would be strong enough to fight you off. Looking at Gale and Astarian
Gale, no, dude is as strong as a wet noodle and tries to make up for it by acting smart and saying big words. Astarion would just turn invisible and run away just to come back and stab you in the back. Astarion would be fine.
I love how Wyll is trying to support you fighting your demons. reminds me of the old Meet the Robinson's movie where the Grandpa tells his wife to "Bake Them Cookies Lucille!"
Seeing stuff like this, I would absolutely buy an expansion if they made and voiced more unique origins like the dark urge. Brings so much uniqueness to a playthrough. It's probably odd that having companions talk about getting through something with me while I try to kill them is comforting.
Shadowheart and Lae'zel: DTF Astarion, Wyll and Gale: Also DTF, but more coy about it. Karlach: Genuinely concerned you had a bad dream and would only be DTF if it would soothe you
Astarion: "We ask before we bite"
Also Astarion after getting caught trying to bite me when I'm sleeping: "👁👄👁 shit"
😂
Tbf he asks every time he wants to afterwards.

thats not a growl.
I just realized Astarian always knew about Alfira.
Took me a while to remember that High Elves don't sleep, plus he's a vampire so he wouldn't sleep anyway, and they even show that he doesn't.
When you end each day, you get a cutscene of everyone sleeping with their hands across their chest.
Astarian's are to his side with his palms facing up as if he's meditating. Elves trance for a long rest.
Even if you perfectly hide the body, if you talk to him after the Urge, he refers to you as "My knife-happy friend"
my dagger happy friend :D (also when you get hit and go to 0hp in battle, Astarion: nooo my sweet bloodthirsty friend D: )
One nitpick: this applies to all kinds of elves in D&D, including wood elves and drow, so neither Halsin nor Minthara are going to be sleeping in camp, they'll be in trance as well. But elves still CAN sleep. They don't need to and typically don't, but they can.

*Me upon meeting them* Hi. I have no memories and I have deep, very violent fantasies.
Them: Ahh, Im sure its fine.
"Cool man, let's go kill some goblins"
I remember laezel just saying it’s regular warrior battle fantasy
@joenani Honestly Lae'zel seemed to be the one that took it most serious. Focus that energy on our enemies. If you feel the urge we will find you a goblin, ect. I think she is the best good option for urge, while Minthara is obviously the WORST.
I like how they're all exactly what I thought each of them would be like, and then Shadowheart comes in like a mom swatting you with a newspaper for throwing a tantrum.
"Deliciously feral" might be my favorite line in the game.
She’s so hardcore🏋🏻♀️!😨🥶🥶
"Sweet of you that you want to murder me. Mind if you don't?"
I love how everyone is trying to call you down…
Meanwhile Shadowheart is treating you like a bad dog, Astarion thinks is kinky, then there’s Lae’zel who just goes “I’ll bite ya back, don’t think I won’t!”
lmao the fact that Shadowheart thinks the biting is like a flirt really makes her an adorable airhead.
Lmao Karlach roaring back is too good
Astarion leaning on the coming dawn as he speaks to the enemy inside his lover is a giant mood.
Lae'zel is a testament to her character growth. If this happened in Act 1, she'd have just knifed you and been done with it.
I love how your companions are like "Why didn't you tell us? We could've helped!", but when you do in fact tell them, they're like "omg you're so quirky, ok let's go on now"
I would never harm Karlach! EVER!
I killed her during the fake tyr supporters quest and immediately had to redo it.
@@IZUNAMI14 you monster! 😢
@@maning04 😣😣😣
@maning04 To be fair, if I hadn't known she was a companion I'd have offed her too.
You couldn’t kill sexy and tall Muscle Lady if you tried!🤬
Because she’s too adorable!🥰
Love how Wyll takes the growl as an attempt on your part to overcome it
I love how Astarion treats you, like, "I've _been_ there, too, Darling. We can get through this."
Everyone: you can do this!!!
Lazel: YOU WILL DO THIS OR ELSE
I'm a Gale girl through and through but Wyll is so sweet
The fact that every Durge is different......how many playthroughs are uou doing you absolute madman
And all of them are gorgeous, & perfectly match each companion.
I love that Shadowheart treats you like a dog lol "BACK! NO BITING!"
i always thought astarion's reaction was the best even though i never saw the other ones. after seeing this? astarion's is still the best along with karlach's. cause unlike others, they understand you. they're not afraid, not mad, not disgusted, they both joke (astarion saying we ask before we bite and karlach straight up roaring). they also didn't *demand* answers, nor said anything that would make your character feel worse (like shadowheart showing fear and saying stay back, lae'zel straight up saying she'll kill you).
But the other responses are normal, in perspective. Most people would be freaked out of their minds if something like this happened.
If someone *had the urge to kill me and said they didn’t want to, the first step to helping them is figuring out what the fuck is going on.
I mean - it seems like Tav already fucking killed someone in camp already. Everyone was extremely calm and understanding, considering. I know this is fantasy but I’m starting to feel like I’m the crazy one.
There’s a butchered corpse of a friend next to my sleeping bag. Maybe requiring answers is a good way to start getting back in the right track.
Growl/bite timestamps
2:00 - Karlach (growl)
3:51 - Astarion (bite)
6:29 - Shadowheart (bite)
8:55 - Wyll (bite)
11:59 - Gale (growl)
13:56 - Lae’zel (bite)
I feel like this scene in particular hints that the Dark Urge was originally the Werewolf character that was scrapped. With the mentions of "the beast that killed Alfira", the attempt to bite, the growling, and Astarion mentioning that it will be over by dawn, this all feels like a remnant from the Werewolf.
Honestly, as much as I like Durge, I think I would've preferred the Werewolf.
There was going to be a werewolf?? Damn, I wish they went with that. Love me some werewolves.
While a werewolf may make more sense, Durge is much more interesting imo
@@LeFisheboi For me it's actually the other way around. I feel Durge makes more sense because of their connection to the plot and one of the main villlains, and I think the Werewolf could've had a more interesting dynamic with the party, especially since you could've had it as an NPC as well.
@jindo5 Durge is a whole new can of worms because we know what its making us do but no clue as to a why vs. Werewolves who we already know the settings lore on and what their gonna do and the entire dilemma there, the mystery factor is much more intriguing
Also, me and many other ppl would kill a werewolf npc on sight because they don't wanna lose several npcs for this 1, Durge being PC only makes that call impossible to make because your the problem and you need allies
Dark Urge fits more with the previous games as in Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 you are a Bhaalspawn, the Dark Urge is also a Bhaalspawn
Tav: If we do something, i'm going to kill you.
Gale: Could you not?
Karlach and Astarions responses to Dark Urge are just so utterly caring. You can see that they know what it’s like to not be in control but they won’t judge you for it and just want you to be ok.
Gale: You should have confided in me sooner.
Gale when Durge confesses: As regards to your own morbid little fantasies, I'm sure they're nothing to worry about!
EVERY COMPANION REACTED THIS WAY WHEN DURGE TOLD THEM FOR THE FIRST TIME WTF 😡😡
Shadowheart: «I wish you’d trusted me sooner, given all we’ve been through already.»
Hypocrite
love Astarion and shadowheart he is like no we ask first and she is like no bad dog no!
Karlach's 'that's so sweet & fucked up' 😂😂😂 I love her so much. She's my favorite. Astarion comes in close second. They're both so funny.
Karlach is like VIBING with the urge, Asterion is like... "i totally get the biting, but like... not now", Shadowheart is hyper chill cause "from one edgy bih to another i gotchu" also BAD DOG STAY DOWN!, Wyll is like.. " a Mental Battle? AYO WE GOT THIS IN THE BAG, HOLD ON! FIGHT THAT SHIT" (cute Avatar btw), Gale is like... "so uh... this magic is uhm.. mildy concerning... we gonna have to fix that...also geez you got rabies? the heck?", lae'zel is like... "IMMA FIGHT THE FUK OUTTA YOUR URGE, but also IMMA BITE YOU BACK BITCH!! I WILL NOT HESITATE TO CUT CHU UP!"
Durge, five seconds after meeting everyone: "My blood tells me to kill."
Everyone, when Durge's blood tries to make them kill people: "Why didn't you tell me sooner?!"
"I'm glad I didn't gut you." I think that's the nicest thing she's ever said 😂
Karlach growling back at you is too precious.
So sweet that the general reaction is: *Understandable, have a good day* 😂
Karlach is such a chad! love her!!
Leave it to this game to have everybody waking up horny af (except Karlach for understandable reasons).
Wyll, Gale and surprisingly enough Astarion were the sweetest/least threatening (or maybe that just exposes my clear preference for men). My favorites in no particular order are Karlach (she's just so cute🤭), Astarion (supportive flirty puppy, he could genuinely relate and it shows🥺) and Lae'zel (she was ready to end you....and digging it🤣).
Someone else understands what I feel when I say Astarion is definitely a puppy!! 🥹✨️
Astarion most certainly did not wake up horny. Considering you can only get this scene after his official "I don't want sex" confession, bro meant it when he offered a cuddle
@@Shark-vi2cz Flirty then.
I got this scene at the beggining of act 2, fighting Marcus was one of the first things i did ( after the cutscene with the Butler), im not even close to moonrise towers, where Astarion's confession usually triggers.
I love how everyone else reacts to the bite attempt.
Meanwhile Wyll: Hmm. Considering these syptoms.... fiend?... or just some curse?
A true monster hunter.
I never thought I’d regret not romancing Lae’zel until the end.
Great, yet another playthrough where I’ll need to romance Karlach. The others will never get a chance at this rate.
It's a good thing that you pass out after telling them, because I don't think some would be strong enough to fight you off. Looking at Gale and Astarian
Gale, no, dude is as strong as a wet noodle and tries to make up for it by acting smart and saying big words. Astarion would just turn invisible and run away just to come back and stab you in the back. Astarion would be fine.
@@GarfieldCultistGale is misty stepping tf outta there if we assume he has the typical mage set up.
@@GarfieldCultistTwo words, my good friend: Misty Step
Edit: Nvm. Just saw the reply to you
It's definitely a good thing. I know Gale's supposed to be a decent guy, but are we sure he wouldn't freak out and cast something on us?
@@Agent_Voxthe problem here is initiative order. I'm a barbarian and Gale has dump Dex.
The video is missing one of the most endearing ones.
Jaheira's watching over you with blades drawn, in case.
I love how Wyll is trying to support you fighting your demons. reminds me of the old Meet the Robinson's movie where the Grandpa tells his wife to "Bake Them Cookies Lucille!"
Seeing stuff like this, I would absolutely buy an expansion if they made and voiced more unique origins like the dark urge. Brings so much uniqueness to a playthrough.
It's probably odd that having companions talk about getting through something with me while I try to kill them is comforting.
i love that the thumbnail of this video looks like the entire polycule is in on the situation at the same time. larian give me this
I love all your Dark Urge characters!! They are honestly sooo good looking and attractive ❤ also pair really well with their partners! 👍
Our character: *leans over their partner with murdurous intent*
Shadowheart: "uh..tryna smash..?"
It was just fuckin hilarious to me lmao
Lost it when Karlach said “that is sooo sweet. And fucked up” such a greatly delivered line by her VA 😂😂
I love how Shadowheart is IMMEDIATELY dtf
i love how astarion treats the urge like a different person
"thats so sweet and fucked up" man I love Karlach
Wyll is such a cheerleader in this omg I love him
sh'art's interaction really felt like "at any other time i would find that kind of thing hot, but right now it's concerning"
Shadowheart and Lae'zel: DTF
Astarion, Wyll and Gale: Also DTF, but more coy about it.
Karlach: Genuinely concerned you had a bad dream and would only be DTF if it would soothe you
Funny how that only the "assholes" cared to metion Alfira xD
