Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Astarion's Let's Hypothetically Bite A Companion Choice

When our kind-hearted and caring friend Astarion comes out of the coffin, he admits that we were his first. Unfortunately however he starts thinking about other supple necks other than our own and thus starts yet another hypothetical game of which companion tastes the best.

So in the spirit of his culinary expertise, I'm curious to know who are the preferred tastes.

My choice is usually Lae'zel

Are you really asking which of our companions I'd eat?

Gale, no question.

I could be tempted to try Lae'zel.

If I had to? Shadowheart.

Probably Wyll.

You (Astarion), of course.

That's it. We're done talking.

I switch between SH and Wyll.

Here I picked Wyll because he frustrates me so much with his big ego/hypocrisy/self-righteousness that this would release some of that frustration 😄
(The vampiric equivalent of angry s*x 😅? I'll see my horny-bard self out...)

But sometimes I pick SH because I feel like I could comfortably do that with her.

(No hate if you like Wyll 💛)

Well, that is an easy one, since I kill Astarion normally anyways nowadays. Didn't even remember those dialogues until the polls, since I don't really put up with his BS anymore.
Tbh I have a problem with all of the current male companions, but none of them grates my nerves as much as Astarion.

I'm cool with the ladies though, I like Shadowheart and Lae'zel, so they get to live.

Most times, my Tavs will choose Lae'zel, in jest, as this would likely be the most stupid and dangerous thing to try 😄

Though my sorcerer Tav is flirting with Astarion (somehow, she's more of a "flirtatious bard character" than my bard Tav) , I wouldn't choose the "You, of course" option, since it is too obvious. I feel like you get the most funny, more flirtatious dialogues with him when you don't cater to his ego 😉

Agree, during the "Mirror Scene" I always pick SH instead of calling him beautiful. I love his reaction. He can actually be a good sport.

I choose the same answer, and I love his reaction, too.
I think the romance with Astarion develops quite naturally, there is -or can be- a lot of flirting before the party, so the party night doesn't feel out of place.
