You can request me to find something in the BG3 dialog files. And I'll try to find it though it make take time, it is better if you are looking for something specific. You can also use #bg3 txt to search for previous stuff.
Request format:
Requested thing + Game Version(Release version, Patch 5, Patch 6) + specify if you want any changes to the text color, size etc.(default version will be what @/roksik-dnd did)+ specify if you want devnotes + specify if you want the plain text version
I am such an idiot; I was wondering why the game chooses to use a spear when Shar's holy weapon is a chakram when Shadowheart literally pierces the side of a child of god with a spear if she goes Dark Justiciar.
Weatherman voice: Now let's look at the Arcane fandom. We have the-mafia-boss'-precious-criminal-daughter-who-had-a-bad-day aganist a-privileged-cop-with-fascist-tendencies-who-had-a-bad-day. I am predicting high toxicity levels in the upcoming weeks with a lot of anger remaining from the US elections. Don't forget to bring your umbrella if you go out to get your yaoi and yuri fanarts.
what's the difference between an A Record and an AAAA Record? One's much scarier! Haha, just some engineering humour for you there. Actually A Records represent IPv4 addresses and AAAA Records represent IPv6 addresses. Anyway is anyone else feeling totally ready to leave civilisation and start afresh on a lesbian commune?
I just thought of something else I've been wanting to know:
All of the origin-specific options for Gale's magic lesson, where he tells the viewpoint character to picture the concept of "harmony". For Karlach, it's "Mum and Dad dancing in the kitchen".
Hi! I'd really like to see origin-specific dialogues for what each character says when someone else is downed. I've heard a few of Karlach's (to Shadowheart: "Come on, fringe, back up with you!") and one of Astarion's ("Wyll you sweet fool, get up!") but I'd love to see all of them.
Thanks! I'm so glad someone's doing this.
You dare interrupt my slumber? Really though I kinda forgot how I tagged stuff, it has been a while. Here you go:

"The majority of fans have bad taste" Yeah, but consider this:
The majority of fans have good taste, but since they have good enough taste they stay away from sites like tumblr or reddit. That is why most people we see online have bad taste.
Astarion fans don't get mad at me, but I find the insistence on giving Freudian excuses for his approvals/disapprovals unnecessary. I think most of the times he approves something because he thinks it would be funny and acting like he doesn't takes from his character.
the conversation with Z'rell is so unironically hot, especially when you get a little lippy and she puts you back in your place and you're just like "sorry mommy"
transcript under cut
Zhara [Tav]: Show me the power She gave you.
Disciple Z'rell: Oh, why not? What's the point in power if you don't get to have a little fun every now and again?
*Her presence fills your mind, caressing, stroking, kissing... then clawing, biting, cutting.*
*Your pulse races, your heart strains, then as suddenly as it began, the pain becomes overwhelming pleasure.*
Disciple Z'rell: She gave me the power to delight with a thought - or to kill. So stay on my good side.
Disciple Z'rell: And the best way to do that is to serve General Thorm. I have a mission for you.
Zhara [Tav]: Oh, do you? Well, it so happens that I have a price.
*You feel her presence in your head again. She grips your mind, squeezing until your vision blurs with pain.*
Disciple Z'rell: The Absolute's blessings have a far greater value than any price you could name. Be wise - obey.
Zhara [Tav]: Apologies. What do I need to do?
With how much astarion is on my feed, it always surprises me how my shadowheart art always way outperforms my astarion art. Then I remember straight men play the game too.
I'd get it if you are were talking about reddit. But saying there is more straight men than there is vampire lovers in Tumblr sounds weird to me. What you experienced is common thing for popular characters/ships that can be caused by 2 things:
It gets lost in the feed: In more active spaces your work has more chance to just get lost in the crowd at opposed to less active ones.
What I call "Picky eater syndrome": This more easy to explain in fanfiction. Let's say you are writing for fandom X that has 10k works and fandom Y that has 300 works. If you fanfictions both became popular that is good and the one for X probably got more interactions than the one for Y. But let's assume people wasn't really interested in your fanfictions. In this case the one for X would probably have more views than the one for Y(dependent one the difference between work counts of X and Y), but the for Y would probably have a higher kudos/views, comments/views ratio. The cause for this is people on the X fandom are more picky than Y. In Tumblr terms: More art a character has, people are less likely like/reblog an art that doesn't suit their specific tastes. Less art a character has, people are more likely to like/reblog because they can't be picky.
I hope I didn't offend you. I am just saying fandom spaces has the Laffer curve attitude.
