@@Fallout4277Basically Gale's whole schtick is he has a curse that if he doesn't consume magic found in enchanted items he will explode. So the joke here is that he is literally consuming a magical boot.
I love these because of the implication that Gale is the de facto party leader when there's no Tav around, which is honestly as it should be, because it means we get Tara too.
Wyll keeping the mizora framed picture, karlach sinking, astarions disappointment, and gale saying “don’t you even think about licking it” fucking kill me. Love this game, animation, its actors and community
As long as they keep an ear out and a spot open in their callendar for the next Larian project...though obviously after BG3, that will be high profile work too.
😂😂😂 Astarion is a dead cold-blooded vampire, so he gets cold faster than others and Karlach can't help melting snow, because she is a burning hottie, I love these details
We need a full series. No questions asked. I would happily watch this group go on all kinds of adventures. This captured all their personalities brilliantly.
If they do, it would be the "you can have both in your party at the same time" update. But considering they patched out some exploits to do so, it probably won't happen.
I just caught up with Phandelver recently. Of all the campaigns I've seen, it's definitely my favorite. The dice truly have told a story. I'm glad Larian acknowledges Brett and the gang.
Yeah! I've only watched clips, I should watch the full thing cos Brett is a cool DM, but it was a really cool cameo to notice. Who are the other characters in this scene, they look like cameos too but I don't recognise them?
Shadowheart snuggling against Karlach to stay warm was so cute. I love it. The BG3 cast and Larian continue to do amazing work. I honestly would want a series of the cast doing stuff like this every week.
lae’zel being so happy about her gift sent me into a huge fit of laughter, can’t wait for more animated shorts with these characters, these have been masterpieces
man it's so on point for Lae'zel and astarion just eyeing each other when all the others were excited looking at the bag. And of course they were the two characters to notice something amiss.
Oh god damn it. The party cameo from last time and this one near the beginning with the yellow magic user, blue and pink haired armored people and the tall dark skinned red head are flipping Sonic refrences.
Karlach taking a bite out of a plugged cable is so random lmao. And I believe Gale has had enough companions licking suspicious items XD. I also wanted to add that Wyll pointing at the glowing light in the distance is referencing that meme isn't it hahaha.
Karlach likes to eat weird things, she is the only one who approves of you licking the spider corpse, and then she even comments something about “is that beef” 😂 I assume when you’ve lived in Avernus, food options are limited so you try whatever you can find 🤔
Everything about this was amazing! Astarion sitting on Karlacks lap angrily and shadow heart cuddles up. Then Gale saying ‘don’t even thing about licking that’ Larian is probably one of the company’s with the most relatable, relaxed, and funny content
I'd pay money to watch an animated series, with the original VAs, of these guys. I love them all SO much! Also, Shadowheart singing "Healsss!" at the end, after Karlach bit the cord, is so funny to me! lol
I love Karlach sinking into the snow constantly..lol
Also shadowheart and astarion clinging to her to keep warm lol
@@xenonsan3110 I could totally see that happening lol
And her jet ski
@@prylosecorsomething3194 That she is struggling to even start LOL
She runs around naked and doesn't get cold. ^^
Yeah that looks about right.
Karlach slowly sliding down as she melts the snow, with absolutely no reaction from anyone, is so incredible.
And right before that, everyone is walking on top of the snow and Karlach just wading through it waist deep with no effort. That was great.
It's my favourite part of the short
Seeing someone with the same PFP gave me a stroke.
@@knightclub9668 Fellow Ferry enjoyer
Lae'zel seems to notice...and thats all she did
That “Oh for fuck’s sake!” Is such a perfect encapsulation of Astarion’s entire character in a single exclamation.
The amount of pettiness in his voice kills me every time lol
Had to replay it like ten times haha. It is perfection.
I felt that in my soul. Makes me think of being at work and people being needy. 😂

FINALLY SOMEONE MENTIONING IT😂😂😂
Followed by immediate offscreen licking sounds
@@jondoe7036 You can hear Gale continuing:
"stop that."
*lick*
"STOPLICKINGTHEDAMNTHING"
If Netflix or Prime decided to produce a full animated series with these characters it would be a near guaranteed hit.
Dude, legit. I'd watch it in a heartbeat.
I love wyll in this. Honestly everyone is perfect. Karlach sinking into the snow is another brilliant detail
His "oOoooOOoooohhh...." at getting Mizora's portrait is hysterical!
@@SessVlogs Confusion boner for sure haha
Wyll is down bad for Mizora, and I can't blame him...
Astarion's disappointment at 0:35 had my sides hurting from laughter. These are AMAZING.
oh fer FUX sakes 😭
Bit like my disappointment this ended up an Xbox reveal
The only thing missing was and "But enough talk, have at you!"
@@chriswalker3257you still got an awesome animation out of it. What more do you want?
Upset Astarion is best Astarion lol
I have a young kitten, so Karlach's first response when greeted with a cord being "chomp" had me dying.
0:28 The fact he drank the swen vincke blood (aka) (the video game designer of balder’s gate 3) on that bottle.
Props to him and the team! ❤️
The voice actors have just way too much fun with these characters, and I am completely here for it.
Hell yeah, agreed
I love how at the end Karlach's response to something she doesn't know is to bite it
And laezels is to lick it. I guess taste test is what it takes to be adventurous
@@502jackalstoplickingthedamnthing!
@@502jackallaezel doesn't know the thing in my pants, so....
The Goku method of solving problems.
@@blackjacktrialShe really is a frog girl
Shadow hugging Karlach like a heater, just gold😂
Dont forget Astarion siting haha
@@PaladinodoCerradooficial Even Karlach not enough to warm Asta🤣
0:09 there’s World of Io’s hardcore Lost Mines of Phandelver party, they even have Turg’s hideous bald rat face covered by a paper bag!
I love how there’s no “Tav” but they are in a “Tav”ern. Very clever, Larian
Aside from that, it's a very common trope for RPG characters to hang out in taverns anyway.
The earlier shorts kind of imply that Gale is the player character in this particular party.
tav owns the tavern obviously
@@GaldirEonai Well, Durge (who is likely the canonical Tav) did show up in another one of these, but Gale does seem to be the de facto leader, yeah.
Love the fact that Gale is enjoying a set of magical boots as his meal
Now I get it
This went over my head, I thought he was just being weird fjskfksdfj
Can someone explain it to me
@@Fallout4277Basically Gale's whole schtick is he has a curse that if he doesn't consume magic found in enchanted items he will explode. So the joke here is that he is literally consuming a magical boot.
Also kinda sad when you see his projection eating food
When a studio can laugh and know the memes about their own games, it' just magnificent
1:54
LORD HAVE MERCY.
3:15
The cute little "heeal!" was perfect 😂
True
I love it 😂❤
3:14
Please, we need a animation series like this!!!!
Why not go even beyond? Do something like Critical Role did. A TV show in this style, like Vox Machina.
@@ThePariahDarkI would love to see their backstories, each an episode long. That gives us a full season when you add up all ten companions!
I would even pay for it.
Not in this style, but yeah.
@@cameronmcewen7192 Yeh, I was thinking more serious for sure
I love these because of the implication that Gale is the de facto party leader when there's no Tav around, which is honestly as it should be, because it means we get Tara too.
He's the most level headed to be fair
@@apache8795IDK, the barbarian makes some great arguments such as [ROAR!]
@@jackhazardous4008 Also [Eat Cable]. If Gale can eat shoes why can't she chew on it
Tara would make a PERFECT Chrismas dinner!
Well, according to Larian stats, he is the most popular origin character to play as, so it makes sense
Shadowheart was not shy about snuggling up to Karlach. 🥰
I mean, she straight up talks about Karlach throwing her over her shoulder and carrying her to safety when you first meet Karlach 🤣
@@unicornburger16 which is why it's incredibly disappointing to me that they can't be romanced together
Wyll keeping the mizora framed picture, karlach sinking, astarions disappointment, and gale saying “don’t you even think about licking it” fucking kill me. Love this game, animation, its actors and community
Afterwards you can immediately hear her licking it and him telling her to stop it xD
Gale: "Don't even think about licking this."
....
Lae'zel: *slurping background noises*
"Stop that"
The voice cast deserve to be stars; I hope they get a ton of high profile work for the rest of their careers.
As long as they keep an ear out and a spot open in their callendar for the next Larian project...though obviously after BG3, that will be high profile work too.
Yeah Goodluck to them with now everybody and their mom using AI voice acting instead
@@AlanXEverfrost ... it is after BG3, what do you mean?
"This is a bit much, even for me."
Bro if *Astarion* says that, you *better* roll initiative.
YUP. I hopefully will try to remember that when I meet Neil next month.
I would rather love to see more of these animated shorts than a live action done by Netflix
Yes, but we need a canon urge to join them
@@AristasTheMonsterHunter Who do you think the Elf was?
@@JonathanLundkvist I think he refers to the Dragonborn Durge.
Only, if it's the Original cast
Netflix would ruin it. Better these shorts.
I love that everyone was comfortable until Wyll forced everyone to go forth and adventure out into a snowstorm lol.
Its so like him though.
"Ugh for fucks sake >:c"
Larian consistently seems to understand the assignment
😂😂😂 Astarion is a dead cold-blooded vampire, so he gets cold faster than others and Karlach can't help melting snow, because she is a burning hottie, I love these details
i love how after gale tells lae’zel not to lick the box, you can vaguely hear licking sounds in the background a couple seconds later😂
And also some complaining from Gale while she's licking it. Love the little details.
I hope they never stop making these and it turns into an actual series.
I like it. A series of shorts starring these guys sounds great.
That's basically vox machina but still a Baldurs gate Series would be awesome
Shadowheart cuddling Karlach at 1:00 is so cute! And Lae'zel's face at 2:40 is absolutely adorable.
I bet she doesn't really even mind the cold
I 👏🏻 Demand 👏🏻 A 👏🏻 TV 👏🏻 Show 👏🏻 Dammit. I know they have the funds.
we all know, we were all the source
And if they don't, we will provide!
If they didn't they could crowd fund it easily
but hear me out what if instead they use that money to make more awesome content and maybe even a better sequel!!
@@mannym8kerLarian is unfortunately done with BG. Won't be any expansions. Their next game is gonna be something different.
Larian is one of the few game companies that truly *earn* their player's respect
so far they have earned it, games they produce have all been bangers
All I want to know is if that glass Astarion was looking had or haven't been made with silver, because it it wasn't... He could have seen his face.
We said this about cd projekt red lol, soon on to the next
We need a full series. No questions asked. I would happily watch this group go on all kinds of adventures. This captured all their personalities brilliantly.
Lol! I know right! Would love to see some thing akin to Legend of Vox Machina, but with Baldur’s Gate 3 characters.
I'd honestly watch an ongoing series if everyone was up for it.
That would be AWESOME xD
@@KopaXTani Well, I've met most of the main cast of that, so please, let's have some healthy competition!
@@KopaXTani Vox Machina is what I think of every time they release another short. Same vibes tbh.
Karlach's unrepentant monch on the cord is peak Barbarian and I love it.
I hope if they continue the shorts, Minthara and Halsin will get animated as well.
If they do, it would be the "you can have both in your party at the same time" update. But considering they patched out some exploits to do so, it probably won't happen.
The cameos at the very start are godlike. Seeing Brett's Lost Mines of Phandelver party was a treat.
It’s great seeing my favorite some lil guy
I just caught up with Phandelver recently. Of all the campaigns I've seen, it's definitely my favorite. The dice truly have told a story. I'm glad Larian acknowledges Brett and the gang.
Poor Turg lmfao
That sparkling little cinnamon bun of theirs is a greater threat than the absolute ever was.
Oh my GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED THAT! Look at that absolutely adorable (not psychopathic) Baker boy!!!
3:07 Karlach just did it...ahahahaahaa....
I don't think you guys understand how much I want an animated show for these guys. This shit is too funny
Oh god can you imaaaaaaagine how good that would be. I may cry
No matter how many times i hear it, Astarion's "Oh for Fuck's sake" still cracks me up 😂
I love how the voice actors have really embraced all these beloved characters
Well yeah, they've been with the characters for 4 plus years. Neil even got Astarions high pitched laugh, it's pretty funny.😂
Seeing Tomato’s, Juniper’s, Joefudge’s and CrownDM’s characters at the beginning was nice surprise :)
Yeah same it made me really happy to see that
Thank god Turg is wearing a paper bag on his head.
Yeah! I've only watched clips, I should watch the full thing cos Brett is a cool DM, but it was a really cool cameo to notice. Who are the other characters in this scene, they look like cameos too but I don't recognise them?
@@thestormwizard6447 I don't know most of them, but the top right table is Sonic's team. They appeared in the Launch Party short too.
@@SerLagsalot which Sonic? Not the blue hedgehog right?
Shadowheart snuggling against Karlach to stay warm was so cute. I love it. The BG3 cast and Larian continue to do amazing work. I honestly would want a series of the cast doing stuff like this every week.
Damn the animator REALLY leaned into the "thicc tomboy karlach" here
Gale playing with Tara was way too adorable ❤️
lae’zel being so happy about her gift sent me into a huge fit of laughter, can’t wait for more animated shorts with these characters, these have been masterpieces
man it's so on point for Lae'zel and astarion just eyeing each other when all the others were excited looking at the bag. And of course they were the two characters to notice something amiss.
Oh god damn it. The party cameo from last time and this one near the beginning with the yellow magic user, blue and pink haired armored people and the tall dark skinned red head are flipping Sonic refrences.
Good to see someone else noticed the cameo from Team Sonic.
Karlach taking a bite out of a plugged cable is so random lmao. And I believe Gale has had enough companions licking suspicious items XD.
I also wanted to add that Wyll pointing at the glowing light in the distance is referencing that meme isn't it hahaha.
Karlach likes to eat weird things, she is the only one who approves of you licking the spider corpse, and then she even comments something about “is that beef” 😂 I assume when you’ve lived in Avernus, food options are limited so you try whatever you can find 🤔
Everything about this was amazing! Astarion sitting on Karlacks lap angrily and shadow heart cuddles up. Then Gale saying ‘don’t even thing about licking that’ Larian is probably one of the company’s with the most relatable, relaxed, and funny content
And then, if you listen closely after it cuts away, you can hear slurping sounds. XD
@@avitraangelica9278 And Gale trying to get her to stop.
@@gdog9423 For a man who eats boots, Gale gets really concerned about people licking weird stuff. XD
@@avitraangelica9278 "STOPLICKINGTHEDAMNTHING!"
Just noticed the small detail of Gale when marching in the snow, his shoe has holes in it from him eating it. such brilliant detail
Gale casually fork-and-knifing a magic boot 🤣🤣🤣
This is amazing. Screw all those netflix shows, we need an animated show like this.
... on NETFLIX!
Yeah right? Forget all this talk about "live action", an animated show based on BG3 would be gold, it allows for so much more freedom and creativity.
and we can have the original vas do what they do best!
@@olafschmidt8437They're on time to change it still
"come to ... DADDY"
Larian making Karlach the ultimate Daddy canon. Gotta love it.
2:41 Lae'zel is so adorable here. This is the nicest I've ever seen her lmao
I'd pay money to watch an animated series, with the original VAs, of these guys. I love them all SO much! Also, Shadowheart singing "Healsss!" at the end, after Karlach bit the cord, is so funny to me! lol
