Everyone else: “No PlEaSe GeT Up”
Minthara: “V E N G E A N C E!”
Reactions to Tav: Oh, fucking-- wakey wakey, dickhead, we got company!!
Reactions to DUrge: Noooo my sweet sweet bestie 😰 don’t die!!!! Noooooo
i like to think of it more like acting like close friends who often tease each other... but in the case of durge they dont want to risk angering the dark urge... or if your trying to go good path they truly wish to try to support you and help you resist this urge.
they might seem to care more for the durge... but keep in mind that the durge definitely needs the support more (or they lose control and turn into a giant murder monster so yeah)
@@arcanumelite4853 oooooh that’s a positively delicious take!! Incorporating it from now on next time my Tav gets demolished in combat
@@arcanumelite4853I don’t know if it’s because i befriended Astarion way more as a dark urge (one trying to be good) but he seems made to be their bestie/LI because as soon as I told him I was Bhaal’s offspring he was like “Hey Bhaal-babe! What’s good my man!” I guess he feels seen by the fellow bloodthirsty maniac
@@plaguedoctor2882 Or he sees it as a case where the Dark Urge is much like Astarion himself in the form of being the unwilling pawn of a more powerful being (Cazador for Astarion, and Bhaal for Dark Urge). So Astarion may see a Dark Urge who is actively trying to resist Bhaal's influence as a sort of kindred spirit.
If the fandom picked favorites based on who's the most traumatized, why hold the companions to a different standard?
Ironically they seem more distressed that their psychotic murder hobo is dying than they are about Tav.
Durge may be a psychotic murder hobo, but they are the party's psychotic murder hobo 💔
If they do die bhaal gets a power boost (probably a large one since dark urge is really pure)
If you're resist Durge I guess it makes sense. Your companions get to know you more compared to when you are plain adventurer Tav, therefore a closer bond. That's why I like Durge over Tav is because you get extra longer dialogue and whatnot compared to Tav. Later in the game they start to worry about you over when the next time you will urge out and grow to trust you completely.
Karlach showing the most support for Durge imo especially if you romanced her.
I love how most of the companions are insistent the player gets back up, their work isn’t done, but Minthara is just instantly ready to write them off as dead and move on to the avenging lol. Never change girlie
Underdark is dangereous place so they evolve always ready to lose their partners.
Paladins of the Absolute don't take electives into medical science
Man they shuda had a minthara origin char too. At least a Drow character
It seems like they collectively love Durge more
I love how they not only love DUrge more but also are So pissed off at Tav. Like, if Tav falls, that’s on them.
@Miles_Phantasmagoria you know you're in trouble when the designated fully geared murder hobo gets taken out. Bhaalspawn or not
Wyll: By Balduran's bones, No!
Squid Balduran fighting alongside them: 🧍🏻
Honestly, I wish we had different reactions to downed MC from romanced characters.
I still remember the tone of voice of romanced Dragon Age's Anders when Hawke was down and my guy seriously sounded like he was about to cry.
Same tbh. Its cute that they start getting concerned even if you're just friends but it'd be extra sweet to have a different set of lines if their partner is downed. Same with Tav/Durge when their partner is downed, even if its the same line for all of them. Itd be such a nice touch; they're bringing back Karlach's actress already, I believe, so fingers crossed they bring in the rest for some more lines too.
They actually have a bunch recorded in the game files, u can find them on yt. For whatever reason they just weren't included with release :(
@toolatetothestory a bunch have been uploaded by a user called Bitter Wanderer, titled *character* romance assist lines or something like that. I'm so so in love with the astarion vid I WISH they were in game
Everyone else: "No! Don't die now!!"
Minthara: "I WILL AVENGE YOOOU 🦅"
I find Gale's one for the Durge funny cuz it's just like "no, not you!" as if he has no fucking idea who you are
I see it as anyone but you.. but I was durge when i romanced him so I found it kind of sweet
@@autist_artism4693 I like the one for Tav too. He don't sound sad, it's like "Now is not the time to die, you can do that later"
I need a Tav reacts to downed companions because my Tav yelled Wyll at the top of his lungs and it was the MOST heartbreaking thing i've ever heard and i wont let Wyll go down anymore because of it but i would give anything to hear that scream again it was SO GOOD!!!!
Mine yelled for Karlach in an absolutely heartbreaking voice, to the point where it really made me pause for a minute. And I mean, YELLED.
I heard that same voiceline but Wyll had just been pushed into a chasm by one of those hag thralls and it was so fucking funny, I couldn't stop laughing.
Can confirm that Shadowheart has the same "NO!" reaction to Tav dying as to a Durge.
I love how minthara just accepts you’re dead lol
Minsc actually making a sensible suggestion for once in the end 😂say what you will about his intelligence, him being a seasoned adventurer shows
Also Shadowheart not having a ton to say on the subject is like "lmao I'm the cleric, I'll raise them, y'all overreacting"
In fairness though, if you *have* to raise a party member from the dead in the middle of combat something has gone terribly wrong
For me, she only seemed to start reacting to me going down once she and I became official.
"Up, your work is not done!" Jaheira knows best -- learn from her experience.
Durge, with the utmost sarcasm: "Oh, I'm only down for the count, teetering between life and death, all while my fucking deformed goblin butler keeps telling me to murder you all so I can please my god-daddy that I don't know /how/ to feel about, but sure, Jaheira. I'll consider 'just getting back up'."
"Nooooo, my sweet dagger-happy friend!"😂😂😂😂
Honestly, they sound more heartbroken over Urge, but if you are playing redemption arc, makes sense.
I love getting Asterion's approval high enough that he starts doing this in Act 1.... ha-ha, made you emotionally invested in me, its OVER for you now
My first Monk was a Tiefling Tav. I didn't quite understand what Monks were supposed to do other than smack people with a staff, so I tried to balance all of his stats rather than pool them into DEX and WIS.
I always put him on the front line and he got his ass handed to him by the Gnolls. At that point he had really high approval with Astarion so Astarion yelled when he was down.
Shart healed him, he rushed into battle, smacked a Gnoll in the face, was downed again, and Astarion yelled the same thing.
Imagine watching the guy you kinda like get TKOed, healed, and then rush right back into danger.
@@foxkadokawa6702i did the exact same thing but with a tiefling bard, poor Astarion must have been so done with my shit
@@heroic_antagonist759 "You're a music man/woman, what in the bloody hells are you doing swinging that sword around?!"
@@foxkadokawa6702 "write what you know! How else am I gonna write this down right!?"
@@heroic_antagonist759 "The only thing getting written here is your epitaph, and I won't be the one paying for it!"
Astarion's cute :3 also lol Minsc. I love how Gale - the sweetest of sweet boys - sounds mad at you for being dead lol
Minsc with Dark Urge is the only one playing smart lol. Keep the body safe, find a priest later and then fix it.
Everyone: grieving/trying to save you
Minthara: nor even looking back, ready to spill blood
Astarion, Halsin and Karlach sound the most upset both times. Gale sounds annoyed xD Wyll, worried but also can't resist starting a heroic speech, now is not the time buddy xD
0:57 AW! Halsin! Right in the feels! 😭
Thank you for confirming that Shadowheart doesn't have a reaction line aside from "No!" I was legit going crazy that I couldn't recall one after 400 hours
Minsc the most practical here.
Shadowheart, Jaheira, and Halsin really put their souls into yelling no. I'm impressed.
All I get when my tav is down is gale saying “no, no no you!” 😅
Our friend has fallen! Guard the body, Boo, so a priest might stuff the soul back in!
KARLACH IS SO FUCKING- I love her.
Minsc, you are the best, please never change.
Minthara secretly wants you to die so she can avenge you.
Maybe something to do with oath of vengeance idk.
Jaheira "Up! Your work is not done!"
[capitalism intensifies]
Thank you so much for this! Ever since I got screamed at by Astarion not to die, I've been trying to find that audioclip and have had no luck! I really appreciate the effort you went through to collect all the conpanions reactions and uploading it! ❤️
Boo's eloquence, the heartbreak in each of his chatters!
I love Gale. Like... Someone else... eh , whatever... but not YOU
Karlach sounds like she's close to crying in both.
Also the amount of times I've heard Lae'zel's downed Tav line, I die so much and she never does.
Jaheira wouldn't even need to cast a healing spell on me. I'd be up and fully healed because, as she said, my work is not done.
(I love how most of Tav's makes it seem like they are choosing to keel over and die.
Tav: *face down in the dirt*
Companions: Have you tried - not dying?
Tav: *stands back up* Can't believe that never crossed my mind. Thanks, guys.)
Wyll's "By Balduran's bones" is actually kind of funny 😅 iykyk
Shadowhearts Durge "NO!" sounds so raw, same for Halsin's.
Jaheira's "no" to downed tav BREAKS ME each time 😭
I love how most of the companions are worried about you and then Jaheira is just like “Get up, dying is GAY.”
I seriously love Halsin’s reaction to
downed Dark urge🖤💜😈❤️✨🥰
why did halsin's dark urge reaction just make me love him omg....
My dark character Never-There (black Dragonborn) going down in the Grym fight and Astarion (romancing again) calling him his “sweet, bloodthirsty friend.”
Never-There: Aw! You care about me~
now we just need companions reacting to downed companions
Minthara :D
Minsk reaction on Durge death is actually an easter egg to first BG, where you needed to go to the church, in order to revive your fallen ally
Everyone else: "Get up, you can't die here!"
Minthara and Minsc: "Oh boy, here I go killing again!"
Gale's the one who mostly trips on his robe but he has the gall to sound annoyed
The idea of Boo avenging us is sweet yet hilarious.
Astarion reaction to Durge got me at the House of Grief and I won't ever forget it 🤣 he instantaneously loves you being evil
Wyll is so sweet!!!
Good looking out Boo
Tav's lines are way better in my opinion, i feel that they treat tav more rough but with the same love as Durge so tav's lines feels more genuine to me
I love the little details in this game, and one of my favs is who yells when you are downed. It’s always the companion you are closest to / highest approval. It means more when my tav’s closest friend / loved yells out when they are downed, and vice versa.
I heard my romanced Shadowheart howl “NO!” across the battlefield when my owlbear Tav got trucked out of wildshape straight to dying on the ground by a high level paladin with a sequence of crit-smites. First time I’d ever heard her react to me going down and given the context of the battle, absolutely broke my heart (but also in a, “Aw, she does care!” way).
You're doing the lord's work.
"I will avenge you!"
Fr she's my true love.
Karlach sound like she's holding back tears i love her 😭.
Everyone else: *yapping*
Shadowheart: No!
Ok I love all of them. But Misc for durge like “nope. You are not dying. Not allowed “
Halsin screams no also when you aren't durge actually. Might have been because I was romancing him but my he said the same thing when my tav got downed.
Jahera is like biss, you're not retired yet, get up and finish your job before you die
POV: you’re playing as a friendly wizard class
shadowheart reacting to durge getting downed MY HEART
Yeah every time my generic Tav fell on my first playthrough Shadowheart's only response was just "*NO!*" so I think that probably is just her line for Tav too
Minsc's lines are always so funny and adorable xD
Boo and Minthara are ready to throw hands
I didn’t think halsin had any lines here. He’s missing a lot of voiceclips, which i hope are added in patch 5.
Minthara really is an oath of vengeance paladin
I love Minsc's reaction :D
I only ever play as durge so hearing tav version is nice, glad there’s a difference 😂
I'll set this as my alarm...
Halsin if Tav is down: 🙄😪😒
Halsin if Durge is down: NOOOOOOOOO!! 😭😭😭
This hits hard as I am doing a "Resist the Urge" run as Guts from Berserk rn
Thank you for sharing this. Could not hear properly what Karlach said when my MC got downed, only understood the "...won't allow...", rest got drowned out by other noises.
Minsc obsessed with that damn hamster 😂
goddd karlach's reaction is so heart wrenching. really fucking took me out for a moment when i heard it in game.
Minsc is being pragmatic about Durge 👌😄
« My sweet bloodthirsty friend » gets me every single time 🥰
Halsin's caught me off guard dang
_why were wyll's lines were kindaaa..._ 😳
also minsc 😭
love u lae'zel
when I first heard lae'zel say "Tsk'va- I can't let you die!" I was like aw she does care
Minthara pulls any excuse to not move a finger. Based.
Why does it sound a thousand times more dramatic when its Durge 😂
Fucking love Minsc, so practical 😂
Halsin my love ❤
Damn, Boo got his work cut out for him huh
Karlach's made me sad she sounds close to tears
The way I only ever hear Gale yelling at me abt being downed
I love Astarion, but he always sounds mad or sarcastic in these moments and it bugs me.
It kind of makes sense for his character - he hides his true feelings behind sarcasm, mockery or passive aggresion/aggression. It's very common for him to blurt our his true feelings and then immediately cover them up with nonchalant attitude (see the scene how he reacts if you romance him and then cheat on him with Mizora and he finds out. You ask him wether he's jealous, and he first angrily says "Of course I'm jealous" and then quickly adds "(because) you didn't invite me", since he doesn't want to admit/show that he is really hurt.
Even when he yells "No! My sweet, bloodthirsty friend" you can hear it in his tone - the "No" sound legitimately worried, and then he adds the rest to cover up that worry.
Not to mention he only says this if you have high relationship with him, so it's clear that he *does* care about you in these moments.
@@Deadpan_Snarker oh I could never cheat on him so I'll never hear that line in my game lol. You're right, of course. I'm just weird and wish these reactions felt a bit more genuine. Or maybe over time they become more sincere.
Haslin sounds so gutted. Poor guy
Minsc da goat
Can confirm, Wyll, Astarion, and Gale can have both lines happen to a Tav. Idk about the others though.
Gale when tav dies: omg(s) this is actually so inconvenient? Would you mind dying later?
Gale when Durge dies: omg(s) my little murder baby! Anyone but you! Kill Astarion instead!
I love how most of them are sitting here like "you're not allowed to die, fam" and then there's Minthara, bein like "Yea you dead but I'll kill shit for ya"
Losing someone is pretty much common in Underdark. Minthy will move on after vangeance.
@@ladyselin35 Minthara is the best companion and its a fucking crime you cant play as her like every other companion
@@jefclark Because shes a side character not main one. Shes classic bandit leader mercenary.
@@ladyselin35 What you mean side character main one? lol theres literally 8 'main characters' which is every party companion you can get otherwise besides DU or Halsin/Jaheira/Minsc and tbf Jaheira and Minsc were playable in other games,.
Also if you look into it they cut out a ton of content with her, and shes not just a bandit leader mercenary btw, at all. If she joins your party and you find out her history shes a noble born drow Paladin
@@jefclark In Underdark. Whatever title she has in there has no weight topside. She might have rich history but game is out. Shes not a main character but someone you pity. She has no effect on story her death wont change anything. On the other hand youll lose actual main characters by adding her.
