Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Story & Character Discussion Ending with Lae'zel (Spoilers)

Recently finish game romancing Lae'zel and never feel so bad about finishing game like this one.

Let me elaborate:

1. Seeing like Voss goind to do anything to get hammer from Raphael and kwnoing what that mean for lae'zel and githyanki in general my charater trade soul for it.
2. Kwnoing what Orpheus mean for lae'zel and githyanki in general my charater go against Emperor
3. Kwnoing what Orpheus mean for lae'zel and githyanki in general my charater go truogh ceremorphosis

And when my charater ask for being with him she call him ghaik and leave.
Then my character kill him self, becouse he is ghaik and there nothing to leave for.
Then Karlach die...

I'm devasting, never feel so bad finishing game. Story wise you are win, but it feels like you lose.

And that achivment "ultimate sacrifice" it should be called ultimate loser

Hah! My ending was pretty similar.

1. I broke into the House of Hope to steal the Hammer
2. I chose to free Orpheus with it
3. Knowing how important Opheus was to the cause, I chose to undertake ceremorphosis. And I hated it! HATED it!
4. At the end, knowing what her fight for her people's freedom meant to her, and how I just couldn't bear trying to force her to love a mind flayer, I let her go.
5. And in the end, when it was all said and done, I chose to kill myself, before I, too, became a monster

A video game has never done this to me before, but I literally got all verklempt and teary eyed at the end; It was just gut wrenching. It was tragic. I LOVED these characters, and those sacrifices cut so deep...

And that's what made it such a good story!

I'm just pissed Lae'zel didn't volunteer to become mind flayer to save Orpheus. She's horrible. Either we end up killing the only person who can free her people, or we become a mind flayer ourselves. I mean, come on. Lae'zel should do it. She should sacrifice everything to liberate her people, that's what she wants, she's ready to die for them, so why not now? Die a hero you coward.

Agreed, so my workaround was forcing

Anyway, even in my replay I can't say the I love Laezel ending because you have 2 options, either she says like "farewell bro" or stays and it's totally your choice, kinda weird, very short dialogue.
