I'm a "insert character from another piece of media" kind of person. So I'll make either Laios or Adol.

Edit: grammar

I'm playing Elden Ring as Zenos from FF XIV.

But I do think you should give the character creation a whirl at least to see the options, you might be surprised.

Also the character creation theme is catchy. Down down by the river.

Statistics for Baldur’s Gate 3 to commemorate it's 1 year anniversary.

Spoiler warning for those who haven't finished the game btw.

Shadow heart is more popular than Astarion?

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

Damn, I am a basic bitch since Paladin and Warlock are part of the top three choices for Tiefling.

NGL tho, good guy Paladin Dark Urge is one of the best times I’ve had with a game.

Not really surprising. You gain approval with her by being good, which tends to be most people's default. She's also relatively straightforward to Romance compared to Astarion.

Man, I picked a good time to go good for my Dark Urge run then.

Goth girlfriend is very popular archetype for the straight boys as well so Shadowheart being the top in that regard isn't suprising.

She's the most conventionally attractive girl so of course she's the most popular romance.

I'm more surprised by the numbers for beating Honour Mode and petting His Majesty being a 1 to 1 match.

Conventionally attractive, she's also quite nice and pleasant to be around. She has strong Imoen energy.

Which was a frustration of many original fans.

Sweet, I was thinking of redoing my Warlock of Asmodeus run one of these days, and I love being evil.

let's see one generic ithillid specific ending if you fail the roll, ending for each origin, ending for Durge that does the thing, four standard one you can pick between with everyone, one for emperor. Yeah they did add nice amount of variants for all evil variants rather than just ending it in "In my name"

I have to say, the ending where you drive people to madness and murder was the happiest ending I've seen in a video game yet.

Tho I couldn't actually see the Dark Urge evil ending personally because I went good guy for that run so youtube it was.

But I did the world domination/mind control people to worship Asmodeus because that's something my Warlock could do after reloading a slot.

Finally after spending most of the game as a sort of good guy despite trying to go lawful evil and failing because a lot of the evil options are stupid, I could bring glory to the master's name. [lol]

Hope you enjoy the game.

Character creation is going to be your first challenge. XD

I'm planning on playing as guy. This mostly stems from my interests of making an opposite to my AC6 OC Mikoto (while Mikoto is a cynical, somewhat tomboyish girl with a troubled past, my character in BG will be someone who is a somewhat feminine guy and someone who can feel sadness but does his best in a bad situation, kinda like Cinderella).

Sounds fun, I have to inform you that once you make your character, you have to make a second character that's "the ideal partner" for your first.

I won't say anymore tho, enjoy the game, and may your flame burn bright.

Out of curiosity, should there be a Just for Fun page about a troper's Tav character? That honestly seems like a fun idea.

[up][up][up][up]tbf the character creation in BG 3 is kinda... mediocre compared to some other games. It's a step up from Divinity but still not as grand as others.

I'm forced to install the Fizban's Dragonborn mod because the game sucks at giving Dragonborn racials.
