The way he immediately blames himself breaks my heart, but right after you tell him why? He sounds like he’s trying to calm himself, but is relieved. Obviously he understands the reason, but all I can hear is “oh thank the gods I didn’t fuck this up.”
Poor astarion I kinda just want to hug him tight and tell him to let out his emotions. He is precious, even if he tried to murder me on our first meeting
Mama always said that a person's eyes are a window into their soul. I see shock, fear, sadness, pain & desperation in Astarion's eyes. Then relief when you explain why you want to break up with him, followed by a combination of empathy, fiery determination & fierce protectiveness. Damn, the grafics for these characters are incredibly detailed. I'm very impressed.
I had the worst time fighting Orin as a sorcerer Durge... until I checked my scroll pack and went "Oh... I'm so dumb 😂" The scroll of Hold Monster saved my life.

How did you manage to have cutscene with him looking directly into camera?? It's not like this in the game. Is that a mod? I want the game like this so bad :O
Him being a little relieved that the reason is bc you might *kill him* and want to protect him and not bc he’s done something to push you away is both hilarious and heartbreaking
It's the "Oh shit" for me 😂😂😂😭😭 but for real... "We can't let our lives be ruled by fear or else we never really live" that's such a life lesson some learn the hard way... And some not at all ❤️❤️ he gets it *ugly sobs*
The little sigh he does after he realizes Tav isn't actually breaking up with him gets me every time. He sounds so relieved, he sounds like he's damn near about to cry and it saddens me so much. Poor man doesn't know what to do when the closest thing he's had to a healthy relationship in the past 200 years is on the verge of breaking apart 😢 Also the cute smile at the end melts my heart ❤😊
I love the half hearted scoff at the start like he wants to laugh off your concerns but he just can't bring himself to do it he could actually die and you both know it

While every cast member is incredibly talented in BG3, not every member is Neil Newbon with how astronomically invested he became in his character and the whole project.
It is because of the writing process. The same writer was writing the dialogue for both Astarion and Durge at the same time so she had Durge in mind when writing for Astarion, more so than other writers who where in charge of other origin characters.
I found it interesting that just like real people, I can't look at him in the eyes. It's the same incomfort-surcharge feeling. That says something about how lively he seems.
Wait no I just realised me neither! My autism kicks in and I end up staring at his (admittedly perfect) nose! I don't think this has happened before with a video game. Kudos to everyone involved I guess, from the voice actor to the animators.
After seekng the clips of Ascended Astarion being able to see his reflection I'm more mad that he doesn't have a dialogue to see himself with the tadpole connection or a painting or sculpture or hells, even the spell mirror image. Or disguise. I know we don't have specific options like that bjt the fact that Gale makes a full mirror duplicate of himself at the beginning of the game "indulging in a spot of vanity" while later we have to see Sadstarion with the mirror scene "petty vanity, of course I miss it."
yk the Oskar Fevras quest, for Act 3, if you save him in Act 2, he offers you a painting as a reward. mine happened to be portrait of Astarion and I'm also upset you can't show him the painting
@RedFoxy248 right? So also, in my first run, my Tav romanced Star and when my Tav agreed for the painting it was Star (lol) and and I reloaded and had Star talk to him to do it and it was the same. (I can't remember which one I did first) but on one of them Star is just like "ok we have tbis painting of someone now" and my Tav made a comment about how they thought the person in the painting was rather good looking. I don't remember the exact line but that is some kind of acknowledgment I have noticed. And I thought it was so cute. My Tav basically saying the man in the portrait is hot while Star doesn't even realize it is him.
As a trauma survivor I deeply feel how he freaks out, during the whole thing ofc, but especially at the end. The end of a stressful thing always hits exactly like that, I can't even describe it but they wrote it perfectly.
same. ( tho my character ascend him , some parts she doesn't like but knows he was suppressing himself before. so if she still loves him she has to accept it all )
Ppl who think all the companions are black and white pigeonholed "evil, good, etc" haven't BEGUN to dig into the immensely different ways your own example, respect if others right to make good AND bad choices by themselves but also to, right to have their privacy respected and not be pestered for every detail about themselves before they even KNOW you affects how differently the companions potentially develop. You can wind up with the most evil, abusive, villainous Astarion imaginable. You can also wind up with an Astarion who learns sacrifice, selflessness, and heroism. You get out of them what you reflect, and they'll tend to start to reflect your own attitudes about them.
I never selected this option. So this was morbid curiosity. Not like his face when he says "Oh shit" hit me in the heart. Not like im here sobbing and whispering, "My baaabby, I'll never leave you. I'm so sorry 😭 😭" Nope. That definitely didn't happen. I'm fine. This is fine. I'm fine.

how am i supposed to romance other characters in my replays when this man exists
He is so sweet💙
i love him so f- much it hurts
The next time someone tells me Astarion is completely toxic and has no genuine feelings for Tav I'm showing them this.
Oh yes please! It's weird someone could say such things especially about spawn Astarion
You're Durge, you've killed people and taken so many questionable options. And YET-
"Did I do something wrong?"

😻he is so precious
Aww it's sad that he thought he did something wrong 😢

Give us first person mode you cowards! 😂 jk we love you Larian but please 🙏🏻

Is this if u fail against Orin or somewhere after the graveyard scene
no, it's default id you are playing as Durge
I haven't done this interaction, but does this conversation and him saying "I'm not going anywhere" mean you do not in fact break up?
This is durge right? Haven’t finished my first playthrough yet cuz no time.
Yes it is!!
The look of panic!! Then the look of relief when he realizes you were "only" worried about brutally murdering him
this is my favourite comment
😭😭😭 He's so sweet. And very beautiful 😘
