It's as shrimple as that.

Yeah Act 3 being unfinished will always be the worst part of BG3. I wish they focused updates around that but I guess they didnt want to fuck with the story post launch.

Karlach doesnt just die though its even dumber as they shoehorned in you get to tell her to fuck off to Avernus and shes just like "buhh yeah ok sounds good" even though she said multiple times she'd rather die than go back there.

Gortash just hanging out in the watchtower is another pretty egregious example of the consequences of the Upper City never being properly implemented in the game.

Also the Emperor going full retard reeks of an unfinished game
>durrr I wont join you if you dont kill Orpheus cus he'll just kill me hurrr
>instead I'll go side with the Netherbrain and fight you so I die anyways durrhurrdurr
>even though youre on top of the dragon and I can visibly see that you have a mindflayer in your party and didnt kill them/Orpheus is a mindflayer im still gonna commit suicide by fighting you anyways so we can pretend like there wasnt an obvious right choice here.

Lawful Fools & Lawful Stupid at it again kek

Hey, I killed the fake paladins too. I’m solving all the problems!

>>3956788
if you "see evil, kill evil", arent 70-80% of your companions outright gone?

>>3956796
Yes. I killed every origin character. Except Gale, I wasn’t allowed to by the DM, so he stayed in the portal.

the real star was always the funny dragon man
shame he never ended up as a proper companion for Tav

>>3956848
Sorry I forgot /v/ tourist waifufags don't like women that look too close to reality

>>3956898
his VA was great

>>3956898
>shame he never ended up as a proper companion for Tav

why did they go the route btw? Lack of time? Cut content?
Or maybe they respected him too much to let him be a simple companion?

>>3957069
>Lack of time? Cut content?
Belgian faggots lied about doing this when it was extremely obvious what happened. Lost my respect forever.

She is easily the ugliest after Manthara.

You literally can’t get through the tutorial without seeing the alien chick and having her forced into your party.

The Romances are dogs shit I kill most the followers in this game.

yes kill all demons.

>>3956756
I always kill her. Every time. At first I just thought killing her was part of Wyll's quest. Then I discovered she was supposed to be a companion. The blue-hot fucking RAGE I feel about how they so blatantly try to manipulate their target audience with that shitty cliché "muscle dommy mommy" trope has meant that I've done a few runs where the sole purpose was to figure out how to get to her and kill her as quickly as possible. And then a few more to devise the most painful and permanent method to ensure she's annihilated beyond the reach of any resurrection magic in the setting.

Fucking gross. If you're the type to be seduced by such a shallow, obvious appeal to pornbrain, then you deserve everything that's happening to your demographic in the 21st century. You probably hurt your neck walking down the supermarket aisle because all the pretty colors on the packaging keeps catching your attention. You have to plan your route through the store to avoid the womens' clothing section, because otherwise you'd just stand there drooling and staring at bras crooning "bewwwbies!"

>>3957539
lmao are you actually jealous of Karlach?
I dont believe for one second that you have a problem with her "muscle dommy mommy".

Her stats arent remotely amazing and she is quite frankly very weak due to her permanent low Armor Class.
I always play tanks who can take and deal damage but in this game, no need to compromise on this because you can cast magic while even wearing heavy armor (lol) so yeah, Karlach is pretty damn weak compared to Shadowheart and the frogLady.

>>3957595
It's interesting how you project jealousy while revealing yourself by leaping to conclusions. No one said anything about tanking. No one was talking about game mechanics. That just was not the topic at all.
And do you even know what the term "muscle dommy mommy" refers to? No. You don't. Guess how we know that you don't.
No one cares about shart or frog.

>>3956740
>It should be illegal to make a romanceable companion

>>3957595
>Her stats arent remotely amazing
They literally gave every character the generic default “recommended stats”
That’s why Halsin is swole even though he’s an elf with only 10 STR, because he’s one of the devs self inserts

>>3957709
stat distribution is so lame in BG3. Milquetoast as fuck.

>>3957360
Minthara is the only good female companion, even though she's kinda shoehorned in and feels unfinished. Says a lot about the rest.
Froglass is second, she's too much of a zealot overall, but fun to have around.

>>3957617
if she was anything you accuse her of being, the game mechanics would reflect it

>>3957595
>stats

The fuck? One respec fixes all that. You fags are such weird little purists with that "muh stats" shit and BG3 is thankfully a game where respec is obv. encouraged by being built into the main game.

Additionally her unique ability with the coins and plot upgrades is top tier for extra companion abilities (you can't get these on the MC: things like the vamp bite, Gale's extra memory slot etc.) Karlach gets flat fire damage adds and has a cool visual.

She's absolutely brutal as a monk or barbarian.

BG3 fans really are dumber than fuck.

>>3964234
no rpg developer in the history of rpg games has given an NPC companion good or relevant stats to their class
a real DND player rolls an 18 and the DM asks "okay, what stat do you want that roll to go into?" and the player goes "well I'm a tiefling warlock so I'll put it into charisma so I'll have 20 charisma after the bonus"
RPG developers think it's unironically important that Viconia have a 14 charisma instead of in strength or constitution
it's not our fault video game develepors are morons

They're playing 5e, guys. Matching colors is just about the limit of their capacity. Leave them to their quarantine ghetto and get this bullshit out of the board. A thread died for this. Why is it even on the top? It's WotC slop. It's literally 5e. Just fucking stop.

>>3957386
>having her forced into your party.
I'm pretty sure they make it very easy to kill her. I did
I also killed the vampire faggot. again, not a difficult choice considering how they're introduced

Even if we disregarded the fucking atrocious embarrassingly bad writing and acting, the design is crap as far as demons go.

she's pretty great actually i expected her to be your classic stronk dyke but nope hell she is the most "girly" of the 3 we can romance by far and visiting her parent grave and her crying and thanking you for being there with her was...a mix of sad and sweet.
Too bad that Minthara was gutted as a companion.
As for Froggirl i legit don't give a shit about her she/githyanki are just weird looking and all which is crazy considering we have a literal demon girl.
in the end it all came down to elf girl or demon girl

>>3964580
You can kill any of the origin characters (except Gale) in act 1 on the beach after the tutorial, but not during the tutorial.

>>3964386
>a real DND player rolls an 18 and the DM asks "okay, what stat do you want that roll to go into?"
In real D&D, you rolled your stats in order, and only then did you choose your class based on what your rolls qualified you for. This was the entire point of having requisite minimums for certain classes, to balance them by making them more rare and uncommon.
>and the player goes "well I'm a tiefling warlock so I'll put it into charisma so I'll have 20 charisma after the bonus"
A real DM would tell you "you're a faggot for wanting to play a tiefling warlock, please leave"

She should have been romanceable.
I wanted to correct this demonspawn brat like you wouldn't believe.
