Raphael saying "And you've kept your clothes on this whole time? How unlike you." made me so mad, that was such a shitty thing to say to Astarion, knowing what he's been through. I was fr like "Ok, Ik we still need answers from this guy, so we can't *kill* him, but can we PLEASE beat his ass?"
Okay so 38:04...I have never seen him so open with a Tav like that before. How he admits that he doesn't know another way to be. He certainly doesn't seem as open with a non-Durge!Tav from other playthroughs that I've seen, and this here really solidifies how close he and Durge!Tav really get. Poor Little Star ;_;
@@sararamsey5848 that's so good to hear! I hope I can try to get a similar result on a non-Durge playthrough myself even if I do love playing as a Durge!Tav. :)
Side note but I don't think I'll ever get over how anxious and surprised he looks when Tav hugs him, or how genuinely he melts into it, or the intimacy in how he holds their hand after. It's such simple and sweet gestures but I think it does an incredible job of showing how he really is starting from scratch here with the intimacy stuff. Later in the graveyard he'll talk about feeling reborn the day Cazador dies, but I think this shows it as well, like he's in some kind of purgatory here. Between death with Cazador, and life in freedom, he's flailing and trying to figure out what could be.
I think we deserve to get both confession scenes before and after meeting Araj. Theyre both important conversations for Astarion to have, and different enough to both have their place in his development. i was disappointed when i found out you'll only see one, not both. also i'd like to hug him twice but even if we can't i think having both really hammers home just how much you're helping him and how far he's come.
I recommend beating the orthon without completely taking Raphael up on his offer, and make sure you kill hill by talking him into ending himself… Astarion is very impressed by it.
*confesses he was trying to manipulate my feelings* Me: oh yeah I know but I played along too *Confesses he actually wants me* Me: oh-😮 well... I care about you too then🥰💕
Sigh just realized i didnt get the 38:55 cut scene, i might have to replay/make new tav to romance him again 😔 i hate missing out cut scene because i explored too fast Or rather, mine was mixed in with the post meeting with araj oblodora
You can only trigger one cutscene with his 'confession'. Either by going to the Moonrise Towers and taking a long rest, or talking to Araj, rejecting her offer and taking a long rest. You can't get two in a row.
OMG 15:25 HAHAHAAH, that caught me off guard & DAYM GURL! .. And they say they didnt do Astarion dirty.. that clothing alone is proof they did! Im all for it tho 😂
-You didn't tell them? And you haven't undressed once? Don't be shy! BDSM BELTS? SERIOUSLY, ASTI?! -Well, now you know... -WHAT THE HELL ELSE ARE YOU HIDING?!
been watching these in order (the one for act 1 first, then this) & i must say it was a little strange seeing all the romance bonus parts from act 1 followed directly by the party rejection bonus part, all on the same character. guessing it must have been 2 completely separate versions of act 1 you had saved? since i don't know how else you'd get the rejection party dialogue on the exact same character as the non-rejection dialogue & the entire act 1 romance vid before this 🤔 also, this is the first time i've ever seen the alternative convo with raphael at the inn since i'm guessing that it's only a non-romance version? & i've never ever ever played this game once in 3 yrs without romancing astarion... but man, those underwear 😅 & i'm guessing the choice at 52:57 & the approval is yet another thing the haters haven't noticed
Yep, you're absolutely right! Astarion had 19 approval (neutral) when I recorded this 'rejection' dialogue. We went to the Goblin Camp directly, after speaking to Zevlor. I've had a strategy to kill all the goblin leaders without fighting the whole house (no nuking everyone is required, except for Minthara, because I needed her armor). I had to do it twice, tho. In main save file my Tav has already slept with Astarion, so it wasn't possible to get party 'invitation' with medium/high approval. You can get Raphael's alternative conversation if you skip talking to him in your first time at The Last Light Inn tavern. Defend Isobel and speak to Raphael.
"I've dreamt of being bitten by a vampire since I was a little girl" Me: *oh hell yes same😩✊💕* Astarion: *Pikachu face* I'm sorry, you WANT to be bitten? Me: *Ah a girl after my own heart😩✊💕*
One minor glitch can delay the video, unfortunately. Some npcs have skin texture problem since Patch #2. Zethino and Astarion's 'siblings' turned red. I'm waiting for a new patch :C
Nope! I don't use any mods, because I still have locked achievements left. The Dark Urge is not limited by anything other but the background. It is always 'The Haunted one' with proficiencies in 'Intimidation', 'Medicine', 'Performance'.
@@misami213 You're welcome! I was told The Dark Urge will kill its companions by the script, but it turns our you can still be 'good' and fight your urges. The story will follow your choices, which is great.
Sure! I've picked her class and race for a reason. She's a High Elf, which grants her the longest lifespan among other races. And she's a druid (The Circle of the Moon. This class bases on transformations into beasts + you can heal yourself in animal form by consuming health potions or a spell slot). The druids can prolong their lifespan as well. My Dark Urge defied Bhaal and left Astarion as a vampire spawn. Which means, she loses 'a gift of immortality', because Astarion can't turn her into his vampire spawn. Jergal/Withers' words can be interpreted in different ways, after he ressurects Durge. He said: 'I, too, still hold some power, and I will invest a portion of it in thee. So, rise, death will not claim thee while I endure'. It's either she has become an immortal being, Jergal's Chosen, or Withers just meant that he can ressurect her whenever it's nessesary. Either by using the scroll or paying him. I want to think that Durge has become immortal. So that Astarion finally has someone who will share his life with him, who will help him to find a cure (or an artifact - ring, cloak), so he can walk under the sun once again.
Durge is the epitome of “I do not know who I am, I do not know why I’m here, all I know is that I must kill.”
Not the squirrel!!!
Omg everyone is so sweet about Tavs huge murder impulses 😭😭
Its so touching ❤
Wyll's is my favorite. He's such a Disney prince; I adore him
I knowww its so cute
Not Astarion wearing a harness under his clothes like no big deal 😂
I screamed 😂
That’s added on by the player. He’s actually naked. 😂

Mood
the way he strips Astarion in front of everyone the way he did is why I ALWAYS break into the House of Hope and destroy him
"now, quickly, go! HISSS!"
*Astarion approves*
😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

This is a scene anyone can get if the right options are taken. I got it too as a good play through. It was so sweet!

Can confirm! I had to scumsave like a motherfucker to get his approval high enough lol but he does this with non!Durge too

I can't be the only one that thinks that Astarion is the canon romance for Durge....
Nope. I'm right there with you. Gonna romance him on my Durge run!

I know this is a gameplay but I ship your character and Astarion so much
Can't wait for Act 3! I am hooked

-Well, now you know...

Who put the harness on Astarion 😭
3:19 AHH MYY GOODD HIS VOICE
Question: I’m about to purchase the game. Is dark urge a character option or is dialogue based?
its one of the origins character options at the start
It's an origin. The Dark Urge is an evil aligned character you can customize. It has a backstory, unlike the custom Tav.
Ooooooooohhhh!!! That sounds intriguing thanks guys :)!!
been watching these in order (the one for act 1 first, then this) & i must say it was a little strange seeing all the romance bonus parts from act 1 followed directly by the party rejection bonus part, all on the same character. guessing it must have been 2 completely separate versions of act 1 you had saved? since i don't know how else you'd get the rejection party dialogue on the exact same character as the non-rejection dialogue & the entire act 1 romance vid before this 🤔
also, this is the first time i've ever seen the alternative convo with raphael at the inn since i'm guessing that it's only a non-romance version? & i've never ever ever played this game once in 3 yrs without romancing astarion... but man, those underwear 😅
& i'm guessing the choice at 52:57 & the approval is yet another thing the haters haven't noticed

14:24 Astarion, later, we are having a TALK…and a burning…
Is act 3 coming ? Love the series btw ❤
Fate spins along as it should.
What a use of a line. Bravo@@Fenris-- 👏
"I've dreamt of being bitten by a vampire since I was a little girl"
Me: *oh hell yes same😩✊💕*
Astarion: *Pikachu face* I'm sorry, you WANT to be bitten?
Me: *Ah a girl after my own heart😩✊💕*
I'm waiting for act 3 🤍
One minor glitch can delay the video, unfortunately. Some npcs have skin texture problem since Patch #2. Zethino and Astarion's 'siblings' turned red. I'm waiting for a new patch :C
@@Fenris-- oh.. I actually wouldn't mind it, but I'll wait anyway. Great work, thank you🤍
I thought if we play as dark urge we cant create our own character or pick the race, ist? or do I need a mod for it?
Nope! I don't use any mods, because I still have locked achievements left. The Dark Urge is not limited by anything other but the background. It is always 'The Haunted one' with proficiencies in 'Intimidation', 'Medicine', 'Performance'.
@@Fenris-- oh thats great I was worried im gonna have to play in a race i dont want 😭, thx for replying ❤
@@misami213 You're welcome! I was told The Dark Urge will kill its companions by the script, but it turns our you can still be 'good' and fight your urges. The story will follow your choices, which is great.
@@Fenris-- thats even more fun, I was also worried that I wont be able to pick choices so I didnt pick the dark urge at all.
I need more... Please 😭
When you ask him to ask please. 😰 🥵
when will you post Act 3? Ive been waiting 😅❤
I'll need to render 100+ gb of the footage. Either today or tomorrow. The video is going to be about 2h length (if I'm not mistaken)
@@Fenris-- oh its alr I will be waiting I love your playthru choices ❤
48:15 lolol so cute
