Everyone in a love triangle with Astarion: yeah i get it, he's hot Everyone in a love triangle with Karlach: yeah i get it, she's a sweetheart Everyone in a love triangle with Laezel: i fear for my life
Funny thing is Lae'zel likes it rough but you would think Minthara would like it rough, but she is actually a gentile lover, just don't cheat on her. She doesn't like to share.
They're all freakin different. There's almost no repeats. They could easily have gotten away with one speech for everyone with maybe one extra line. But no, there's more dialogue here than in entire games
45:17 “Im surprised you abandoned me for Wyll, of all people. Had I known you’d a taste for dull blades, I’d have gladly conjured a bouquet of cutlery.” Lmao Gale
Everyone but Minthara and Karlach: It hurts, a lot, but i'll manage. Minthara: It hurts and if you even DARE come to me again, i'll kill you. Karlach: IT FUCKING HURTS MAN! MY HEART WAS ALMOST IN PIECES ALREADY, YOU KNEW THAT AND YOU DESTROYED IT!!!
2:00 You really hear the pain and anxiety in Karlach's voice. Props to Samanta Beart voice acting and the devs for making such realistic relationship reactions 👏
I love that they try to kinda play it safe, like you don't want to actually make anyone angry enough to like impact the gameplay or whatever, but the responses of Minthara and Laezel are the funniest shit "ohhh noooo you love somebody else ahhhghghhghghg" as opposed to "Did you know that there are 209 bones in your body. half of those are in your fingers. I am going to break half of your bones."
It's interesting that everyone, while not being ok with you two-timing, chosing someone else... are acting very calmly for this type of situation, no brawl, no sudden death of the PC for being a jerk. It's a group of weirdos but a friendly one.
It's the worst because the game lets you do other romances at the same time in act one. So Karlach says she's fine with it but to 'Save some for me' later but then if you sleep with her you have to immediately break her heart to continue with the other relationship or the other (good) option is to completely ignore her dialogue prompt until the other relationship is locked in.
It kills me because he just assumes you're choosing the other person every time. He tends to be the most flippant about it but not because he cares the least, it's because he sincerely can't fathom being loved by someone and fully expected to be dropped by you for your "true" love already 😢 the others actually had hope, he did not 😭
@@brazzb761 The game leads you on... Karlach says it's fine to romance someone else but she's under the expectation you'll 'save some' for her once she can touch you. But then she wants you all to herself once it happens, you have to either break up with the other romance or refuse to spend a night together to get a slightly less guilt-ridden but still sad dialogue.
I want to preface this by saying; Larian really knocked it out the park, this is an RPG that is basically unmatched in branching, interwoven stories, it's extremely complex, well written and even ties directly into gameplay at times. Most of the breakup dialogue is unrealistically soft, everyone who's ever been in a relationship knows that 99% of people aren't casual about you leaving them or cheating on them (not that I ever have or would cheat on someone but have had to break up before).
Bro baited me into making magic tricks, tried to make out with me, got declined, assumed we were a fuckin couple, and got his heart broken within a day and a half.
This happened to me at launch before the scale patch. I gave Gale the stuff he asked for, didn't see the magic stuff, and he *still* assumed my character was in a relationship with him. Broke his heart via Halsin.
I just got this 2 weeks ago…dude I never meant to lead you on this play through…ended up flipping Gale off for that guilt trip. My 11 year old walked in during in it and decided I am more of a chaotic neutral than good but ended up laughing.
You are really out here doing the lord's work. I remember bingeing all your dragon age 2 videos years ago and I recognized your name when this compilation popped up in my recommended. So grateful I can sate my curiosity again thanks to you!
Gale's pettiness over being dumped for Astarion compared to his otherwise civil reaction when being dumped for anyone else should be studied under a microscope lmfaoo
I got the Lae'zel relationship up to "exceptional" in Act 2 and I assume there's more to it in Act 3, but already I'm at a point where I could not bring myself to beyray Lae,zel.
I do wish they had more elaborate reasons fr them expressing feelings, or that some had to be pursued so it felt a bit more organic than just hitting the approval trigger for it.
Thank you so much for these videos! If you get a chance, could you maybe show all of the options for the various Orin abductions (particularly Halsin's)?
shadowheart is not down for a 3rd love wise. she seems to only agree to things if it's only for lust & appreciates if you include/tell her first. she doesnt let u date others alongside her and only lets u have sexual relations with others if u did it with her first
Im a HUGE Shadowheart simp, and ill ALWAYS choose her, but soooo many times I came close to abandoning her fir Karlach. Shes such a mood a giant softy lol
I'm still shattered that Asti put the hard word on me and then dumped me. 😭 I swear out love triangle with Shart could have worked out, pleeeeeease! But I had to choose the one with less sharp teeth.
Honestly dont see how a lot of people get dialogue for breaking up with minthara by committing to someone else, because usually by the time you have her in moonrise, relationships are already in motion. Confusing
Thanks for going through the effort of recording and uploading this. But I gotta say, the editing leaves a lot to be desired. Scrambling the pieces in such a weird order, some not even making sense without context.
"I'll manage, one way or another. But I'll remember our little moments together fondly - they're amongst the few good memories I can lay claim to." Fuck man, I can't fuckin do that, not to her man. She will always be my partner.
@@pol_eo idk...if you're poly with halsin after killing Cazador it does seem like he's confident with the relationship with you. I think Astarion is poly, he's just insecure and not comfortable before he knows that he is free. Although yeah for someone like Astarion he does need someone that could heal him truly before starting any poly relationship
@@kekekemer9057 it certainly could be the case, i can see it. there was one line (if you ask him if he is ok with you sleeping with Halsin) "it's not because WE hadn't in a while?" which means that he is insecure about that part of your relationship and was afraid you will leave him if you find connection with someone else who doesn't have a problem with sex, but he knows the bear is not into that kind of commitment. maybe when Cazador is dead he feels more confident about this, and also doesn't not rely on Tav so much for protection
As much as i love the game there are definitely some flaws. Shadowheart being poly also makes no sense when you look at her background of distrust. It really felt like they just needed a poly character or female, so they kind of just rolled the dice and decided on her as the safe bet. She definitely seems like she would come off as possessive. The only time it makes even a bit sense is the shar route because then, she cant be commited.
You don't have to side with anyone in act 1. You can just move on without getting involved. The Tieflings will ultimately die if you don't get involved, but you can keep your companions. You only lose them if you actively attack the grove. It's really quite incredible that doing nothing is also a choice.
Buddy, the way you solve is a love triangle by not being a fucking pussy and choosing. Or polyamory, though that only works with Halsin and Shadowheart.
So you really can only do the poly thing with Halsin? Lame. Wyll and Karlach should be allowed to be in a relationship with you and each other. :/ Maybe also Shadowheart and Karlach, since so many ship them together. Including the VAs.

THERE'S ONE HOUR OF SCENES JUST FOR THE BREAK UPS. ONE. HOUR.
Jesus christ this game is massive.

Its hilarious that Karlach is too much of an adorable roasted marshmallow that no one gets mad for you choosing her over them.
Honestly breaking it off with Karlach is by far the most painful everyone else seems pretty chill about it 😅
@@Jay3upher voice actor really did her thing with the emotion. stellar job
It's funny because if they weren't so monogamous, I feel like half of the squad would love to be a throuple with Karlach
@Jay3up , and at the same time she will forgive you for cheating with the devil, this is even more heartbreaking
Hurting Karlach is like kicking a puppy.
45:17 “Im surprised you abandoned me for Wyll, of all people. Had I known you’d a taste for dull blades, I’d have gladly conjured a bouquet of cutlery.” Lmao Gale
Wyll is so emotionally intelligent.
"Gale should be just to your taste. Vanilla to be precise" that got me Lae'zel. Well done.
Everyone but Minthara and Karlach: It hurts, a lot, but i'll manage.
Minthara: It hurts and if you even DARE come to me again, i'll kill you.
Karlach: IT FUCKING HURTS MAN! MY HEART WAS ALMOST IN PIECES ALREADY, YOU KNEW THAT AND YOU DESTROYED IT!!!
2:00 You really hear the pain and anxiety in Karlach's voice. Props to Samanta Beart voice acting and the devs for making such realistic relationship reactions 👏
Man I would have gone a happy life never hearing that minute of dialogue. Karlach.... My beloved 😢
“But I still feel it. What about that?” UGH MY GUT. Insane performance
44:20 "I heard you and Astarion"
W-what exactly did you hear, Shadowheart?
NRT moment
I love that they try to kinda play it safe, like you don't want to actually make anyone angry enough to like impact the gameplay or whatever, but the responses of Minthara and Laezel are the funniest shit
"ohhh noooo you love somebody else ahhhghghhghghg" as opposed to "Did you know that there are 209 bones in your body. half of those are in your fingers. I am going to break half of your bones."
Gale just catching all the strays, damn what did he do?
It just makes the whole “release bug” gale romance that more priceless. _Clearly_ not a bug seeing how everyone reacts, that’s a feature lol.
He ate my magic boots
AAHHHH NEVER BREAK KARLACHS HEART AGAIN YOU MONSTER

I could never cheat on anyone in bg3. it's just too painful for everyone involved 😢😢😢
2:30 man they really laid on the guilt for this one
I had to reload after hearing that
I straight up could never experience this line and live with myself if I brought it about.

They are surprisingly tame on a lot of subjects. If you give astarion to the monster hunter at the beginning of act 1 they're way too chill about it
21:43 ouch. considering his character arc this only stings more.
Wyll is the sweetest even when you're dumping him
Wyll is so sweet 🥺🥺
I got Gale's accidentally. This was before it was patched. It did make me sad.

I love how everyone makes dick jokes about Wyll. Also this is why I can't romance more than one. The break up scenes hurt too much.
I could never. Just couldn't do it. To any of them.

Gale started to vent on me like that without me even trying to ramnce him. It was "fun"...
Everyones reactions were "Ok these I expected" but then when it came to Karlach It was "OMG Im sorry, Ill dump Asterion and stay with you."😢

@@aaronhumphrey2009 Thanks for spoiling that genius.
Karlach: What do you do if the person you want to run to broke you're heart?
Dammit i relate to that.
I wish you would wait just slightly longer on the dialogue options so I can read them 😭
All of them sound so sad, but Gale always breaks my heart lol
Oh damn Lae'zel has some snarky lines, I'd feel to bad to do this to any of them
How the fuck does Lae'zel know what vanilla is
Karlach and Wyll are so nice to each other even in a love triangle awwww
Love it, but you missed everything Halsin and love triangles thereof. Cheers, soldier!
13:53 Ouch Lae'zel.
Daaaamn that's just evil 15:02
This is soul-crushing
Poor karlach 😢
timestamps would be awesome
I’d romance them all if I could, not because it’s appealing but because they are way to easy to romance and make me feel bad telling them no
I do wish they had more elaborate reasons fr them expressing feelings, or that some had to be pursued so it felt a bit more organic than just hitting the approval trigger for it.

Minthara is ruthless 😂
It’s such a shame that Karlach won’t share because god damn Shadowheart is almost certainly down for player 3 😭
Polyamory 🤢🤢

It's sad when she says that you can't hurt her but if you just leave then she definitely looks hurt
Eight people who are all so impossible to reject.

crazy crazy
Wait wait wait... How is there a scene with minthara talking about karlach?
I'm still shattered that Asti put the hard word on me and then dumped me. 😭 I swear out love triangle with Shart could have worked out, pleeeeeease! But I had to choose the one with less sharp teeth.

Don't watch this if you're hurting inside.
What is laezel wearing? I like it
yeah i had to use the polyamorous mod hehe
I haven't made it past act 1 yet😅 i made 4 different characters
Good. Dont be like me and Play 70% of Act 3 and then decide to create a New Character.
Yeah I can't break Karlach.
"I'll manage, one way or another. But I'll remember our little moments together fondly - they're amongst the few good memories I can lay claim to."
Fuck man, I can't fuckin do that, not to her man. She will always be my partner.
Karlach is so baby and angel and cinnamon roll and... mommy? Results pending. More research necessary.
Astarion did suck me dry but not in the way u think
thank you for not adding halsin ❤
I still don't understand why Astarion and Shadowheart can't happen
Astarion is monogamous i think, the only one he is ok with is Halsin since he knows that Tav and Halsin are nothing more than sex partners

im confused on how you got a romancable karlach and minthara on the same run, since getting minthara typically means dammon is dead
you can ignore the grove/minthara and move onto moonrise towers where you’ll be able to save her
but you will lose the tieflings in the process
You don't have to side with anyone in act 1. You can just move on without getting involved. The Tieflings will ultimately die if you don't get involved, but you can keep your companions.
You only lose them if you actively attack the grove. It's really quite incredible that doing nothing is also a choice.
There's also the sheepthara glitch, unless that's been patched.
@@kiilgore806 It’s notoriously buggy and not very easy to pull off
i need a polyamory mod immediately this is unacceptable
remember, its not a love triangle if its not queer
One hour of Love triangles, but no comments and no suggestionb how to solve them. I'm a bit disappiotned. I hoped for a bit more explanation.
No solutions, man. Just choices to make. Eventually every character will address the elephant in the room and make you pick for their own dignity.
