We’re gonna be finding this stuff for years, aren’t we?
Ah yes. Headline spoilers. Why not?
Seriously what the fuck
Y’all are gonna have to define “spoilers,” because to me, a “spoiler” is something that reveals a major plot point, not a random, completely missable scene that you only come across if you do one certain event that you might not do in a quest that can actually be skipped, and if the RNG gods chose a certain character to bear the brunt of it.
You just took away the ability from anyone seeing this post to discover it on their own. In other words you SPOILED IT. Hence, spoiler.
Question. When you first learn that he’s a vampire it looks like he is ABOUT TO bite you. But during the dialogue I noticed that bite marks showed up on my neck. So, I kicked him out because fuck you for biting me while I sleep. But then the marks went away right away.
Dis he bite me or was that a bug?
I think that has to be a bug. You’re supposed to be able to let him bite you consensually (or deny him) later.
I mean… Sometimes when you sleep the first time after getting him in your party/camp, it shows him creeping around the campsite like a creeper during the “cutscene” of you all sleeping around the fire. Before the reveal, I thought he was just stealing my shit. It wouldn’t surprise me if there was some kind of hidden roll or RNG that made bite marks appear on me before the consensual bite.
Frankly, I booted him after the initial interaction in my first playthrough way back in early beta and haven’t added him at all in any run since. Fuck Astarion. Lying, piece of shit, low-effort sleep rapist.
Man… I guess considering your strong feelings about it, you’re better off without him, but he’s one of the most interesting companions in the game. He has a tragic backstory, and a cunning personality. He’s my second favorite companion overall. I was this close to betraying Karlach because of his machinations.
Seems to be the consensus.
You need to take some things into account.
Without any influence, Astarion is a lying manipulative asshat.
You catch Astarion on the second or third night sleeping with him in your camp, as far as I found, never on the first.
That fucker succeeded previously, It’s just that THIS time you woke up.
One of the reasons to play through multiple times is just having different Origin character party member compositions. One or more characters can chime in during dialogue, and changing the combination of characters can dramatically change the whole scene. I have all the murder hobo vibe characters, and it’s like the devs knew this combo would be common and I’m getting hella scenes I never saw in 2 previous playthroughs.
Ok so who’s the hobo party besides Astarion?
Lae’zel for sure. And probably dark Shadowheart? That’s who i have been using for my evil durge run and they all seem to be on the same page.
Fucking spoilers dude
