Didn't Tuco play all those games and report on them?
I've beaten BG1 like 6 times.

Including after playing BG3.

I think my last playthrough on Legacy of Bhaal mode I ended with like, an absurd -14 AC. Crits were still a huge problem. One of the mods, https://baldursgate.fandom.com/wiki/Dark_Horizons was absurdly difficult and I never could beat it.

BG1's real-time with pause combat is better than BG3's bingo bullshit.

TIL. I skip a lot of books.

If you read the ban list book at the waning moon bar it says the pale elf. So apparently Astarion is on the list

Not BG3 but I decided to try and go through BG1, 2, and icewind dale again and I've done them multiple times. I don't know if I just forgot or got used to playing BG3 now was movement such a pain. Like just moving on screen, not fast travel. I can't seem to keep the camera up with the player as they move.

Just learned some of the ending videos (playing origin Lae'zel) was changed in patch 8. More involved, longer etc...Her end videos goes on forever. Mostly being narrated about her.

got to elder brain boss battle
Tried to highlight Orb of Negation and examine and figure out what they did, couldnt. Had no clue what they did. Imagine my surprise when they exploded, removing the platform two of my characters were on, resulting in instant death. 30 mins of first stage of battle wasted, need to try again. And no, trial and error is not acceptable to suddenly introduce new mechanics

I think that mechanic falls under the “if you’ve played enough games in your life, you know to gtfo out of the glowing death zone, especially when there are multiple platforms and only 1 is targeted”

Didn’t look like a “glowing death zone”

the nautiloid targeting cannons are what a glowing death zone looks like

I admit I thought it was weird you could highlight platforms when mousing over them but still not much of a clue what the orbs do

Anyone have this happen or better yet a fix for it? I am doing a duo hardcore run and my main was okay but shadowheart got knocked off into a chasm. No biggy just get withers to revive her.

Nope, only gives option to change class or talk about hierlings. I went through it all and restarted several times, nothing. Hired a heirling and nothing. Kinda blows midway through a game.

Also can't fast travel other to camp and back. Can't rest it only says "Can't fast travel now" when I am right there at the campfire in camp. And I run zero mods not even graphical ones.

Edit run done. I went back and picked up another party member I skipped. Killed them and can't rez them either. No matter the character, how many times I reload, no matter how many times I go through all the dialog he only gives option to change class or hire someone.

Oh well. From a search I'm not the only one.

I am but googling a lot of people said the fix was to save at witcher, load up a previous save and talk to him, and then reload the bugged save and he should talk to you. It really doesn't matter I was just playing around and have done enough runs I can get through act one pretty quick.

But I would be ticked if it happened further in.

Just borked all around. I never could fix it so I started another run. After a while I wanted to be sure I wasn't wasting my time. Killed Astarion like I normally do and went to rez him before I killed him again and put him in a bag till I needed him at the end.

I had thousands of gold and withers kept saying come back when I have more funds.
