I made a save, and then picked the breakup option with him just to see what he would say. Haven't reloaded a save so quickly, not even when save acumming after a Nat 1 roll. XD Made sure to give kisses as soon as the save loaded back up.
oh god, the Astarion one is gutting. He worries so much that he's too screwed up to love, that his trauma is more trouble than he's worth, and breaking up with him like this ("I don't want to be roped into your trauma") really is just confirming his worst fears. Everyone is hurt, obviously, but I think this would stick with him for a hell of a lot longer. Tav is the first person he opened up to ever and they told him he's too traumatized for them.... I wouldn't be surprised if he never tries to be with anyone again 😢
Agreed :( though interestingly after you defeat Cazador, spawnstar will make comments about how it's okay if you do break up or if your feelings for him change. Obviously he doesn't want it, but it's like he's quietly, behind the scenes, realized that the world doesn't begin and end with Tav, and that he'll move on and be okay if it happens. The best way to see it imo is if you ask him about being with Halsin after you've dealt with Caz, you get a dialogue option to reassure him that your feelings for him won't change, and he just kinda pauses a moment, smiles, and says, "you know, I think it'd be okay, even if they did" or something to that effect.
I once wanted to talk to Karlach but clicked on the wrong option and got that dialogue. I felt so bad that I sacrificed 3 hours of progress to reload a save.
Seriously, WHY do they put the breakup option right next to the gimme a kiss option? All I want is a smoochie and all of a sudden Astarion is making sad faces at me 😭
just came to say that I did this to Astarion yesterday - was trying on the "kiss" option and accidentally selected to break up. I was so mortified by how sad his response was that here I am looking at this video. And I have never reloaded my previous save file faster than that lol
Lae'zel is my favorite because for all the batshit violent courtship, breaking-up felt unexpectedly mature, down-to-earth and bittersweet. The scars line hits so hard
I’m currently in a durge run and romancing Lae’zel. I had meant to romance Astarion, but when Lae’zel came to me in the night for a courtship battle (lol) and I told her no, she looked so heartbroken. But she just says “say the word and I’ll go.” I reloaded so fast! Lae’zel is so sweet and vulnerable deep down, she’s always unflinchingly honest, and she respects your decisions. I have to love her for that, even if she scares me sometimes 😂
"So you dont have to." Thank you. My desire to see new content cannot win against my terror of hurting these fictional characters' feelings i spent 120h cultivating
All of these hurt so much to hear. It just goes to show that the VA team for this game did so incredibly well, they legit had me on the verge of crying. Especially for Gale, Astarion, and Karlach, I would actually cry if I had to break up with any of them :'( Off topic, but I couldn't stop thinking about how your Tav looks like Harley Quinn lol
Shadowheart being the only one who is cut and dry about it makes sense. Compared to everyone else; SH had to muster up alot of faith and courage to open up to you. To her, you loving and accepting her is a big deal to her and wouldnt have let just anyone get that close. So to her, you just cutting those ties with no thought is almost like betraying her and showing her that her efforts didnt mean anything. The hurt and anger in what she tells you is sad. I couldnt ever have the heart to do that to her so hats off for showing that painful decision.
and that is why she is ready to sleep with Halsin (while in a relationship with you, she dreams of Halsin, and she flirts with him in dialogues), and share you with the drow twins. How vulnerable
These options hurt so much! I don't think I could ever willingly choose any of these. Thank you for doing it so we don't have to lol It's crazy how cruel you can make Tav be.
Wyll and Halsin are still composed enough to wish the best for Tav, that’s so wholesomely sad 😌 Also Idk why there’s so many assholes-options with others
I think the saddest one is Lae’zel. You showed her a new way of looking at the world, at herself, and you showed her what love is. I don’t think she would fundamentally allow herself to be seen all broken up and vulnerable, but in my opinion I can easily feel the pain in her voice
Well, this opened up a bucket of unsettled trauma. These are all really relatable and they all really hurt. Larian did a good job making it hurt when we break up with them.
Glad I can watch these here. I did the break up with gale just to see what would happen and it broke my heart. I reloaded after that but it was still awful and I am never doing that again 😢
SAME. I had seen a video of someone breaking up with Astarion (dark urge, I think? dialogue options were different) and it was fascinating, just so well-scripted and acted, so I was like "Okay, gonna dump Gale and reload, see what happens because I'm sure it's great content" but omg he just immediately turns away and cries?! Serves my curious butt right for inflicting unneeded trauma I guess haha.
The only time I will ever pick the breakup line and NOT relpad a save is while romancing Astarion while I'm Durge or half-illithid. I've seen videos of his reactions in those instances and it's adorable.
omg, I can't watch it at all 😢 I've spent in BG3 600+ hours, so I can say that all the companions are like a family for me. And I hate breaking up with anyone, cuz it hurts so much 🙈
My absolute terror in honour mode that these are right next to the kiss me button and some of them don’t even have confirmations before ending the relationship
Thank you for this compilation because I am curious but not strong enough, haha. Heck, I had to skip most of Karlach's portion here because no not my sweet girl she deserves the world.
"So be it" The words so many time i heard from a man.... Take your time, let it all out. Im sorry that the world demand you to toughen up, i hope everyone got a partner where they will hold you when you are on your lowest.
Hence why I have a Tav or Dark Urge for every companion and never break up with any of them. Also, good job with this video; it must have taken awhile to romance and break up with every character (except Minthara)
@@nathanfivecoate5848it's not really about that, Mizora forces him to make an impossible choice, if he breaks the pact she won't tell Wyll where his father is or protect him, and she will constantly try to kill the duke on the submarine. the thing that bothers me is that choosing to break the pact comes with such huge negative effect on his romance path EVEN if you save his dad and spite Mizora. I'm just speaking from my experience because i played through both, and I feel like choosing to keep the pact standing is the better option especially when you are romancing him (• ◡•)
geez some of these r so sad I'm actually crying a little my own scars from failed real-life relationships just never healed (Shadowheart takes it rather well or maybe just too good at keeping up a tough exterior)
Thank you for your sacrifice xD I actually got Wyll's one completely by accident once. Basically I was playing a lawful good Paladin who somehow was determined to romance Astarion, I guess he's a sucker for enemies to lovers, lol. Anyways, something blossomed with Karlach as well, but he was always "let's just see how things go" with her so breaking up with her was a little more neutral than this version, he never lied to her or anything he was just, "let's keep things casual" and she was okay with it. Obviously she was sad when things ended, but she wasn't surprised she was just "okay cool give me some space". But then AGES later, Wyll, with no prior significant conversations and absolutely no flirting, starts doing his mating dance for me. In spite of being Oath of Devotion my Tav actually didn't get along very well with Wyll at all, he sees him as a hypocrite. Wyll always wants to save people and do the right thing but only if he deems someone worth saving, you know? He's very black and white, you're either a good person in need of protection or you're someone to kill, and it's a dangerous mindset that often leads to him being wrong or even cruel to the other companions. He's quick to ask Astarion not to joke about biting them, for instance, but will immediately start teasing Astarion about killing him or Astarion's enslavement. It pisses Tav off, especially since he's dating Astarion. So yeah, Wyll invites him to dance, is pretty pushy about it, and initiates a kiss when Tav doesn't. The next morning Astarion's all 👀so I guess this is it for us, huh? And Tav basically says lol no and goes to dump Wyll, and Wyll gave the full on "I saw our future together" speech which... actually pissed Tav off. I'm mad there's no dialogue option to call him out on being a presumptuous prick. Like I'm literally dating someone else, I didn't flirt with you or kiss you, I agreed to dance with you when you asked me four freaking times and didn't punch you when you kissed me, that doesn't mean we're engaged you hypocritical cockwomble.
sounds like a bug considering you have to blatantly tell wyll you’re interested in him at the tiefling party for his romance to trigger at all. there are also multiple dialogue options to avoid kissing/romancing him, as is with all the companions
@@nathanfivecoate5848I know there’s a unique Durge break up option for Astarion, but it can only trigger if you’ve defeated Cazador but have not yet faced Orin. Basically, you can tell him that you’re terrified you’re going to kill him someday, in which he will reiterate that he doesn’t care about that, he’s not afraid of you, and that he will not give up until he has cured you. Not sure if you can still force the break up after that, but I know if you call him sweet, he will tell you that he’s not going anywhere. It’s actually the most heartwarming of the attempted break ups. I’m not sure if the others have something similar, but I know Gale doesn’t as he just accepts the break up with no argument before going off to cry 😢
Missed read and missed clicked for Karlach with my Archfey Warlock and was Galed by her..... aaaahhhhhh..... then she broke the 4th wall and said, wow you messed with my head.
Where? The only way you can is to start another relationship with someone else. You can't just break up with her in passing conversation like these.@@KingNazaru
Duuuuude, Gale's actually made me tear up, poor guy just starts crying and has to leave :(((

dude's got really low self-worth; that's sad
The way they’re all so happy to talk about your relationship until you break up with them 😭😭😭 I’m in pain
DW, Wyll dumps you anyway if you can't save his father, and shadowheart drops you after your big victory if she is DJ
I could never do that to Gale 😭
I once wanted to talk to Karlach but clicked on the wrong option and got that dialogue. I felt so bad that I sacrificed 3 hours of progress to reload a save.
remember to save game every 10 mins
Seriously, WHY do they put the breakup option right next to the gimme a kiss option? All I want is a smoochie and all of a sudden Astarion is making sad faces at me 😭
I'm pretty sure you can get back with them after breaking up.
that must suck. every time I talked w/ Shart I was always afraid of clicking the wrong option

Also sex ≠ love, lmao
@@BloodyVoyager facts
These options hurt so much! I don't think I could ever willingly choose any of these. Thank you for doing it so we don't have to lol It's crazy how cruel you can make Tav be.
Oh Gale! I'm happy, I've never dared to end the relationship with him! Dust in his eyes ...
He didn't even fight it! No "never mind, my bad, let's keep going" option! Just straight to tears. Damn.
kudos to you for going through with this because I would have chickened out after the first one. I LOVE THEM ALL TOO MUCH TO BREAK THEIR HEARTS.
Thank you brave soldier. Im just not strong enough…
Wyll and Halsin are still composed enough to wish the best for Tav, that’s so wholesomely sad 😌 Also Idk why there’s so many assholes-options with others
Man the voice acting is so good really makes the characters come to life all the characters besides Laezel seem truly heart broken

These are all devastating, but your little Juliet Starling Tav makes me :3 every time they pop up on-screen.
i was shocked by Astarian. i fully expected him to get angry.
Well, this opened up a bucket of unsettled trauma. These are all really relatable and they all really hurt. Larian did a good job making it hurt when we break up with them.
