Re: Seems like lots of people want a darker or more evil game, but is that an accurate sampling? ldo58 5 hours ago
I have more than 3000 hrs of BG3 play (EA included) and I don't know how many new games I started, but I don't think I managed to finish any PT entirely "good". BG3 really tests you and annoys you into doing evil things, and I suppose my natural allignment is chaotic in the sense that after a whle "enough is enough we need to teach these idiots a lesson" becomes unavoidable.

I'm talking about the citizen's reactions like, you save them from the Shahuagin. They all thank you so much. Then you see a fish-head lying on the pavement and take it. The citizens don't want this. And that makes me angry and I wack the idiot who wants to prevent me from taking MY fish-head. Then flaming fists show up and it becomes a massacre. Then things calm down. All the Shahuagin are dead. A bunch of flaming fists and civilians are dead too, but I have my fish-head. Have I done evil, I wonder ?

The worst thing I remember was in Act 1 : I set up the trap for Minthara, planning to save the grove. Zevlor and the tieflings on the wall all welcome the party warmly, telling me how much they rely on us to win this fight that would doom them all. Then I talk to Guex and he gets hostile. Because earlier I disapproved of Mol's thieving activities and putting the other children in danger. So Mol had spread rumours about us, and Guex now left us only one option : "attack". The game left us no other choices to persuade or intimidate him to stop this folly. So we had to attack him and all the other tieflings that had just celebrated our return bacame hostile also. And so I had to change my plans, fight and kill all the tieflings and let Minthara and the goblins enter.

Another one is the druid that is knocked out in the cave under the grove. I rescued him but he was a real ahole afterwards. So since then I just kill him while he's unconscious. I consider it a "blow of mercy" to put him out of his suffering, though it is probably evil.

So BG3, not possible to avoid evil 100% for me.

Redistributing char points ingame. ldo58 8 hours ago
Hello, in my current PT, the party is at lvl 10. At this point I think it would be nice if one of my team could move 2 pts from their DEX score to WIS.
I know we can do this with respeccing, but that means building up the character from lvl 1 again. I was wondering if there isn't an easier mod/hack for this simple shift in specs.

Companions / Summons - What about a Pseudodragon. WizardPus 21 hours ago
Would love to see a Pseudodragon. Was always in most of the fantasy books as a Wizards companion but finding one in a video game has but been non-existent.
They were not any more advantageous than other similar pets but always thought they were cool.

Humanoid label bug with Hold Person? BjornGunnarson Yesterday at 12:17 AM
I'm assuming its one of my mods, but I've tried turning off any that would do it, and that didn't help. When I try and cast hold person on bugbears and goblins in the Blighted village, I see the "this spell can only be used on humanoids" message. Anyone come across this before and have an idea of what I should try next?

Edit: While it does show a goblin as having that race in the menu, it says "Fey" at the top when I Examine the NPC. That must be it, but I thought I had already turned off any mods that might affect NPCs like that.
