Romance SOS

My partner and I are playing on ps5, she decided to try and romance Astarion.

We have been chugging away at the game slowly and just enjoying our time allowing for the story to unfold while we goof around in the game. We have not completed all the side quests through the acts, but we have been following our companions quests, along with the main story.

My partners main goal is to achieve "the final scene" with astarion.

We just entered act 3, baldurs gate, and were walking around, and ended up in the circus.

This is when my partner decided to try and talk to astarion, about potentially moving their romance further.
He said something along the lines of "what we have is purely transgressional, I gave you one night, you give me protection."


From what we are reading if you miss a cutscene in act two then your romance option is done with astarion....

She is convinced that she cannot romance astarion from this point forward and that the 70hours we spent is wasted.

I will also throw out there I deleted the quick saves to create less confusion when loading, and just left one save file.


Can someone please confirm or deny this romancing astarion scenario, and or how ee can fix it.

Any comments would be nice, wether confirming the romance is done or if it can be saved.

She is pretty upset, and does not want to play the game any longer knowing we spent so much time, for it to be ruined by not achieving one minor cut scene or conversation.

Thank you!
