I did it. I finally did it! It’s been over a year since I started this game. Over a year! As a grown ass man I don’t have the time or the motivation to play video games that often. But this one I just couldn’t put down for long. Not for the story, I thought the story was super contrived and couldn’t care less for its grand narrative. But the dialogue, the moment to moment voice acting, the companions, the freedom of choice, the mature themes, the gameplay… Nearly 300 hours of playtime later, I have finally finished my completionist dark urge playthrough. I have never spent so long on any video game ever! And after the credits rolled I still went online looking for more bg3-related content. I was missing shadowheart and the bittersweet mindflayer ending left me wanting more shadowbae, more sequels, more… everything really. Not a perfect game, I felt that in some ways they bit off more than they could chew and at times it showed. But omg, it did hold my interest longer than anything ever! I guess I wanted to tell someone. And nobody I know personally would care enough. So thank you for reading this :)

There's actually a lot of unique interactions and dialogue based on things like race and class. You can look then up on YouTube if you don't want to go through a whole new playthrough.
