@@hannahestes4171crying cause it’s like the opposite for me. i wanted to romance gale for my first play, and i had lae’zel and shadowheart making moves on me, i think wyll has high approval of me but i actively avoid saying anything i think will get him to make moves on me, and i only just recruited karlach so she’s neutral, but ASTARION!! this man rejected me without me even prompting?! mans went “i want to have some fun tonight 😏 not with u tho, ew 🤢” and i didnt even try flirting with him 😭 if i was attempting to do his romance, id die (i still died at that, but a lot less than if i was actively trying to get him)
He is the absolute best companion, and something tells me its a crime that his approval doesn't go up when you just walk away because we ALL KNOW he kinda likes it.
I can't believe they gave him unique reactions to a simple "leave conversation" option. Ah Larian, you spoil me. Ty for sharing, it's an amazing detail!
I love that they include additional dialogue for just leaving in the middle of a convo too. It always reminds me of that moment in DOS2 when you can just ditch Fane without a word immediately after boning him for the first time, and how completely at a loss he sounds while calling after your character. “Uh, I’ll see you again later then???”
@@artsy1447 you know that scene in cartoons where someone is being tickled? Just kinda moving their legs uncontrollably in a sitting or laying down position. That was me at that moment. In this vulnerable state, a chair got me.
I was legitimately spiralling into a deep depression and wanted to watch this as background noise. The “is that a no to fun then” made me laugh really hard and I feel better. Astarion always cheers me up
@terrimoran4428 my Twitch notification tone, which is usually Neil Newbon's streams, is Astarion's pouty "All I want is a little fun, is that so much to ask?"
@terrimoran4428 I used gameplay footage from those scenes (I am fairly certain I used the early access version of the game as it was some time ago now). Recorded with Nvidia capture or obs (recommend adjusting background sounds to a minimum so you only get the dialogue). Then I used a sound editing software called Wavepad, think there's a free version or a trial, you can import video files that's then converted to sound, clip/cut the audio how you want and then save. Add it to my Android phone and set as a notification. Been doing it for years with movies, TV shows, music (for ringtone & alarms).
@terrimoran4428 I've been doing it for years with lines I like from films or TV shows, or making ringtones or alarm tones with my music. It's called wavepad, I have a licence but there might be a free version, free trial or a similar program that's free. You can add video to the program which it converts to audio format and allows you to adjust the length or volume. So for these lines I used video I recorded of these scenes (from early access I believe), with the background sounds turned down so I could better capture Astarion's lines. I used NVIDIA's geforce experience to record, but I'm sure OBS would work too. Then just add the video into wavepad and choose the section of audio you want to use as a sound bite. Been doing it for years; for example, I have Loki's "I'm not overly fond of what follows..." from Avengers for my work email notification because I believe it's too apt not to, lol. I also have Loki's "Surprise!" from Thor Ragnarok for my authentication app notification because it always asks me at the worst time, lol.
Omg this is the funniest frenemy dynamic I've ever seen 😂 they'd do anything to keep each other safe but they'd also do anything just to piss each other off
He likes his quarry alive and resisting. I thought he was a bit of a smug arse at first, but he's actually my favorite companion of the lot. At least right now.
@@FaustLiber actually I'm ok with that, most of my dnd characters are. That doesn't mean you are totally evil. AlsoI still like his caracter. And actually he has a reason to be kinda bitter, no? You can be evil unless you're not stupid evil.
Okay darn it...now I have to buy the game. Dangling a romanceable elf in front of me is tempting enough...but then you make him an elf *vampire* AND make him snarky to boot.
I immediately fell in love with this character, and after being inclined to look into it and discovering more about the game that I love, I am now buying it
Lost it when he said "That's a 'no' to fun then?" 😂. He's really the embodiment of the typically annoying, theatrical, sarcastic, witty comic-relief character every story has. If he wasn't that sexy, I can definitely think of him as an annoying sibling, whom you've eventually have had enough of and want to walk away from but he always wants to have the last word of sass even as you leave.
I discovered one when i was in the middle of the Hags lair and he was saying "Oh I know you like me, darling." I just walked away because there was a more pressing matter and maybe we could pick this up later. He was confused it wasn't working and queried "Was it something I said?"
In November of last year this video popped up in my recommended I had no idea what this was. Now I own Baldur's Gate, am a fully committed simp to Astarion, kin him, has become a comfort character and have become apart of the community of this early access game :,) this video had barely 1k now its 100k! To the video that started it all haha.
I bought it just to play around before the full release. If they don’t make the romances more full and heartwarming (not just a sex scene) im gonna be so upset. I want to see more of the companions.
You know the fun thing about that hairstyle, it's bugged when you enter the inventory screen and every single time my characters hair just starts failing around like a helicopter. Rly sets the mood
They have a special friendship. He talks, she leaves.
Sounds like me and my crush
It's worse than friendzone, oh God.
I should go
@@Maztermox commander shepard is here.
A relationship should be 50/50
He talks and I walk away
Sweet dreams, darling.....darling?... Darling????
HAHAHAHAHA
He actually takes it better than I thought. Makes you wonder how often people just get tired of his shit and leave xd
True. He takes it so casually. XD
He’s a good sport
No I think he actually likes it. It teases him.
He does talk a lot lol but I think he likes the chase
Undead become dead
Character : Does -anything-
Astarion : Flirts
Character: literally a rock
Astarion: if it moves, I flirt it, if it doesn't - I'll flirt twice
The mask is on TIGHT
The entire game of Baldur's Gate is like "okay, who am I in most danger of being seduced by?" and the answer being "astarion."

He likes the challenge.
Hes OK for an edgy murder hobo.
He hates to see you go, but he loves to watch you leave...
hates to see you leave, but l o v e s watching you go 😉
The people above me said the exact opposite things and I love it.

They just want us to pack a other 30h on just these reloads, don't they ;) everyday i discover some hillarious stuff other people have found
Yeah, he's the only guy who still talking to your back and it makes funnier.
@@pickled0ctopus srsly? The only one? Curious. Maybe they'll add the rest later or, as it appears to be so far, he's Larians's favourite child xd
@@SpandexMonarch Astarion and Fane are written by the same author, I really like all the funny stuff he puts in.
THAT LAST ONE omg sent me into a fit of giggles
Me too, I hurt my toe giggling T.T
The first one

@@agatamarkiewicz1291 my condolences.
why does the simple shot of your character turning heel and walking away make this MUCH funnier

Same friend, I've been in a bad funk the past few days and BG as a special interest cheers me up
The first one where he pounces is funny
I have never played this game before and I have no idea who this man is but I can tell you that I am very attracted to him.
I know right? Never looked that game up or anything, just got it recommended. And now I need it...
I mean... the dude is freaking sassy! How can someone not like him? Hahahaha never heard of the game before the recommendation showed up.
Same
Same, just looked up r34 and there's nothing yet :((

I love this. She threw Astarion ass in the freezer. This play through should be called the ice maiden.
I like how charming astarion is.
it shows what an effective predator he was conditioned to be. we can't hate him even when we're visibly trying to.
This proves he's clingy. Ha! I knew it.
Who could ever leave this sassy beautiful man without as much as a simple goodbye, the audacity!

It's a running joke in my house to never call it by its name and always say something stupid like that and it gives me life 😂
That’s a good vocal range then
Yes, Neil Newbon is an awesome actor. He was also Nicholai in Resident Evil 3 Remake
Waaait he was also Gavin??? Wow. Didnt even notice.
People who don't like Astarion: I kill him first chance I get.
People who don't like him but also know him: I just leave him on read.
Whilst I could never do this myself, this is my favourite video ever.
I like how he flails his arms when he runs to go do things the old fashioned way.
He likes his quarry alive and resisting.
I thought he was a bit of a smug arse at first, but he's actually my favorite companion of the lot. At least right now.
I'm dead, haha. "That's a 'no' to fun, then?"
Note that this is from TWO YEARS ago. The game has been pure, solid gold pretty much from the start!
I'm physically hurt by that. Protect that baby, please xD

I love his character so much lmao, reminds me a lot of Zevran
I like the idea of walking up to him, starting a conversation, then leaving abruptly the minute he gets a word in.
Oh God, I'm going to have to buy this game.
Lmao thought exactly the same
I thought the same thing, and then bought the game
You have no idea how much I LOVE the fact that they respond when you just nope out of the convo
Sometimes I feel bad for trolling Astarion all the time, but damn it's so fun to mess with the guy.
I had no idea this game existed, but he’s already become my favourite character.
Love the idea of this being an inside joke between the two of you.
Astarian: *says anything*
Tav: I walk away
Okay darn it...now I have to buy the game. Dangling a romanceable elf in front of me is tempting enough...but then you make him an elf *vampire* AND make him snarky to boot.
And so edgy. He's my favorite.
"that's a No to fun then?" XDD I LOVE HIM
I could never turn away from my vampire baby-daddy. But this is still funny😂
"That's a 'no' to fun then ?"
LMFAO darling, you're too sweet I can't !!!
Seeing his early access model feels kind of uncanny compared to the “final” one
I love how she smiles, turns and leaves
It is more fun when he rejects you haha , his burns are priceless.
his little run at the last second in the first clip is so cute
I always have to imagine the rest of my party just standing there, watching.
he starts scrambling the moment he doesn't get attention
Commander Shepard "I should go..." vibes lol
I immediately fell in love with this character, and after being inclined to look into it and discovering more about the game that I love, I am now buying it
And this is the reason he and karlach are always has to be in my party
His sassiness is so hilarious
UR CHARACTER IS GORGEOUS
He's so sassy i love it.

This is it. This is the reason I get this game.
O:47 whenever I see "Gale disapproves"
I have yet to play this game but he has already turned into my favorite character lol.
This is just me in real life conversations. Leaving without a word 😂
I discovered one when i was in the middle of the Hags lair and he was saying "Oh I know you like me, darling." I just walked away because there was a more pressing matter and maybe we could pick this up later. He was confused it wasn't working and queried "Was it something I said?"
You know damn well he hates being ignored 😂
The first and the last were the best. ♡
My man got left on "read"
This is great. I adore Astarion. Thanks for posting xD
God I love to bully him haha
This is HILARIOUS. Well done! ^_^
I left after saying one line of dialogue with him and he said was it something I said xD
This is like that sidequestz guy with the Jamaican accent.
"Hi Astarion!"
"Yes, about time you came to-"
"Alright alright"
*leaves*
*00:14* OMFG his face!
Bruh I never liked vampires but he is an exception.
I have problems, he put that knife to my throat… And I was like… Yes plz, more of that. Lol
"That's a no to fun then?"
the way she just turns and leaves 🤣
i love your Tav. She is such a girl who leaves 😭💕
the last one killed me
Well shit, never heard of this game but looks like I'm buying it for him
Update: I bought it for him
Thank you so much for this video it's hysterical lmfao
Unfortunately for me and my free time this sassy white-haired vampire appeared in my recommendations and now I need help and gaming computer.
ASTARION AAAAAA
In the words of Vax'ildan, "I walk away."
idk what game this is, but he do b sounding like prince charming from shrek-

“I have to go!”
"That's a 'no' to fun then?" He's right and he should say it.
I hope they give us more options for this through acts 2 and 3
Coming back here hits VERY DIFFERENT now
"That's a 'no' to fun, then?" LMAO.
Ah, the *best* kind of relationship. Right there.
STILL waiting for this game to be fully ready and released, although first chance it gets a discount i will buy it
