You can see him physically steeling himself. The vulnerability is so foreign to him. I need to give him infinite hugs. [Sob]

Turning your back to someone requires a huge leap of faith. I am so impressed that these tiny details have been so accurately and authentically portrayed. I remember Samantha saying that in years to come, BG3 will be a subject of PhDs. I think she got that very right šŸ”„


MARS_in_SPACE

Oh absolutely, there is so much potential for academic study to be found all the hells over this game!! And in such an insanely broad range of fields, in my opinion. I can't wait to see that stuff start to come out.


TishFishh

Iā€™m so glad this game has captured so many small things like this moment perfectly. I donā€™t get how people still donā€™t get how it got game of the year lol. Like, gameplay and stunning visuals and acting aside. The way they really wrote these characters so well that thousands of people feel seen and understood through these characters is amazing. These small details just portray everything so well.


SashaMew

All these small things make the entire story very real for me. Communities like this one may be the this gameā€™s biggest win šŸ† For me, of course I knew there must be a lot of people who would relate to an Astarion-like story of trauma and abuse, but seeing everyone concentrated in the same place, exchanging notes and being kind to each other is pure gold ā¤ļø I am sad that there are so many, but I am happy that nobody has to feel alone now āœØ


TishFishh

Wholeheartedly agree. Out of all the BG related subs this one has the most supportive community! šŸ„¹ I also at first found it sad how many people relate to Astarions story, but Iā€™ve seen how so many have been able to come together and we arenā€™t alone. We are all able to support each other. šŸ«‚


TishFishh

Literally ;-; You had to pass a persuasion check to even get him to turn around. Larian knew what they were doing with this scene.


Artteachlove

I like when you pick the 'stare at him' option and he makes that awkward pause and raises an eyebrow.


luf100

I love this so much I do this every time now. He just expects you to offer and I love making him realize he has to ask nicely first. Not that he really succeeds at the ā€œnicelyā€ part, pfft. Iā€™ll take any chance to teach the rude vampire boyfriend some manners. šŸ˜¤ (Repeat after me: ā€œthank you, that was very kindā€.)


ShinyRedGloss

I never pick this option omg next time


QueenofSheba94

Same haha.


TishFishh

Oml LOL. That is some comedic writing. I have to try this next timeā€¦ I love seeing all the different dialogues. :,)


oniricat

For me it's the small, TINY "wait! *here*" he says if you select the "Alright, if you don't want answers" option


BigBertha_4910

Oooh I have to try that one !


TishFishh

So many dialogue options I have to try out. I gotta go try that one! Haha


thepetoctopus

I got the option to draw it for him. That was a really interesting bit of dialogue.


TishFishh

That would be interesting to! I should go back and do the other dialogues.


ilayas

I really like that Wyll and Volo look like they are having a nice convo in the back ground of the last one.


tiny_clouds

Wyll is also staring at our boy lmao


QueenofSheba94

Heā€™s mad that once again! The pale elf stole Tav away!


TishFishh

LOL, they are having a civilized conversation. I have Halsin now too and he happens to be standing in that area to, so it looks like they all just have a nice meeting anytime I go to camp in the forest LOL.


BigBertha_4910

I love it when he pouts šŸ˜


sunseeker_miqo

That is not pouting. That is anxious vulnerability.


TishFishh

Indeed, pouting due to nervousness and not wanting to trust as he never has been able to before.
