I could sign this
As an old time rpg junkie (BG2 was the first game I've ever played and loved), I am very pleasantly surprised by BG3 which I honestly haven't anticipated-last thing that really swept me of my feet was DAO.
Astarion seems too me a bit too much "inspired" by Zevran though (to the point where I'm mixing up names) and I have a strong feeling you should brace for heartbreak (possibly with Gale whom I prefer too)
And yeah I also feel this forum (let's not even talk about Steam) is missing more appreciation threads.
