Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback As the symbol glows blabla... power blabla... authority! (bla bla)

Please make several alterations of that line.
It is just a minor issue for me but it is immersion breaking enough.

Pu~lease!

What alterations?

No, this is BG3's You must gather your party before venturing forth.

Every Baldur's Gate needs a line you grow to hate!

That line is the best thing from Baldur's Gate.

ANYTHING !!

Come on an example is not needed.
Just a slightly different phrasing for each encounter.

Do we really even need an actual narration for it xD?
It makes sense the first time, but after that I don't think that it's even needed.

True.

LarianStudio wants to tread the Tadpol options as special though I think.
So they will probably keep mentioning this via audio narration.

1) As the symbol glows, power courses through you. Authority.
2) Authority! Power courses through you as the symbol glows.
3) Power courses through you as the symbol glows. Authority!

?

Whoa, save some of this cutting edge content for the DLC.

The only thing I don't get is what symbol? I don't see any symbol anywhere, glowing or otherwise

Yeah a cuts cene would help. It's the symbol of the absolute. They've branded themselves with the absolute's symbol or wear it in the form of necklace and it responds to the tadpole.

The implication is that if you take the brand and get those gloves to start working / wear that amulet you will be subject to domination attempts by other true souls.

Can I like, impale my head on a spike for HEARING THIS LINE OVER AND OVER TO THE POINT OF INSANITY!?

Either change what is said with a few different phrases that mean the same thing, or say it the first time and let the player see "Use the tadpole" in the speech menu. Do we really need to hear it over and over and over and over and over and over and ov-

Annoying isn't it?

I tended to just ignore the phrasing. But now that I think of it, maybe if they offered some relevant information...

For example, if the mark is powering something that adds fire, you can say "you get a burning sensation". If strenght, poder might Apple. But the ring that make you faster should say "swift". Change what you feel for flavor. Make the mark glow sickly green, disturbing purple, menazing red, etc. That way there is the illusion that it might be some relevant information.

Right now, I don't even remember which colors favours the absolute.

Yeah, like this. Also with different emphasis on certain words.

Or maybe a whole other voice will announce it?

" Your Tadpol squirms in its trance. It feels this creatures submissive mind. "
" Another one who has sold out his soul to you in service to the Absolute, stands before you. "
" You feel this one believing in the Absolute and now you too can be its master. "

And some choices are veeeey overlordish too, like ordering someone to commit suicide or fight for you against their former friends and allys.

There are times I just want to slip you into my shirt pocket and carry you everywhere.

I actualy kinda like that line ... maybe its bcs i really like narator's voice. :3
But honestly, this problem would be solved if spacebar is working just to jump over conversation parts ... and dont work as comfrimation to choose first option in dialogue. -_-
