    I mean, she’s a cleric by default. Insanely useful no matter what your team composition is. And flexible enough to compliment any setup you want. What are you going to do, NOT use Guidance in your run!?

      I re-specced her as a life domain cleric and spammed heals, wouldn’t have stood a chance without it

        Light and War are really strong. By either reducing enemy chance to hit, to not take damage in the first place, or ensuring your team gets those hits in, reducing enemy count and the amount of damage you can take.

      Also, of the three ladies (you will typically find in your first playthrough, sorry Minthara) she is the last you can romance, so if your are a completionist you will end with her (I regret not making a save)

    Considering how long this game is. Those are seriously impressive numbers. Congratulations Larian on the success of probably my favorite game of all time.

      If you haven’t already, give divinity original sin 2 a try. BG3 was built on the back of a game just as complex and satisfying, with a ton of the same exact mechanics, that went under appreciated because Larian wasn’t a big studio with a well known ip.

      You can catch it on sale pretty regularly for like $5. I bought it on release back in the day and I still play through that game like once a year.

        I’ve actually put several hundred hours into div OS 2. Its one of my fav games and the reason I was so excited about BG3. Larian is truly the GOAT.

    Congratulations to Larian Studios and to the millions of players who enjoy their games.
    And congratulations for an honest game-launch, without the shenanigans we often see from other companies.

      I never played DnD. I bought it because of the rave reviews and it’s been fun. Glad to support real AAA without the upsell shenanigans.

    My save must be bugged. Still haven’t managed to bang anyone. Not even Halsin despite a bunch of them saying they are interested.

    Idk about most popular, just the one that occurs most naturally. I tried to get with Karlach and it never happened. I never tried to get with Shadowheart, but it still happened.

    Edit: I wonder if this means Shadowheart has the most sexual partners of anyone anywhere, across all games and platforms.

      I’ve literally only talked to Shadowheart when the game forces me to (wanted to romance her on a different playthrough), and if I ask her about our relationship after the goblin stronghold she literally goes on and on about how I’m her closest confident and that she’s a completely different woman now. All the other NPCs also offered to fuck during the celebration, despite me being confrontational with some of them.

      This is after all the patches to romance stats, too.

      Wish they didn’t throw themselves at the player’s feet so hard, to be honest.

          Not anymore! The last patch made it so just knocking her out in the goblin camp will allow her to show up in act 2. Good players rejoice, Drow Mommy is officially supported for us too!

        I didn’t get to talk to anyone at the party after defeating the goblin leaders. I think it’s because I went to a long rest before talking to Halsten back at the grove. Everyone was there, but initiating conversations did nothing.

      Does it? I did like the first main bit of the story and Lizzy was already to bounce on it.

      Everyone else seems to take a lot longer to get cooking.

        True, Lae’zel was pretty horny. I didn’t have her in my first playthrough, so I didn’t realize how forward she is until this current playthrough. I laughed that one of the responses to her initial advance is “just one word, ew!”. Haha!

          The best rejection is still from Asto.

        Well, the gith are aliens after all, aren’t them? Also as infernal are kind of alien/extraplanar you could say Wil and Karlach are at least half-alien

    I don’t use Steam, GOG, or Larian launchers to play the game. I also play off-line. I wonder how many people have completed the game but weren’t counted.

    She’s the only human woman, so it makes sense that she’d be the most popular.

      Well, half-elf. But yeah, pointy ears are a bit more appealing than green skin and short noses or red skin and horns, I guess. People are boring.

        First play through I went SH and felt very empathetic for Karlach’s storyline. Second playthrough I went Karlach and found it kinda cringe.

    My first playthrough I slept with the Emperor and then Wyll, and ended up with Wyll. I killed Karlach for Wyll.

    Second one I was with Lae’zel but was a durge. I wanted to be with Karlach since I didn’t have her on my first playthrough but then I killed Isobel. That dooms Karlach.

    So this time I’m aiming for Karlach. She’s so fun!
