Larian missed out on a big opportunity in BG3. When Astarion is brooding about not being able to see his reflection you should be able to offer to draw him and the DC is super high for you to succeed but if you fail you just end up making some shit like this

Can you fuckin imagine how funny this would be omg.

So I decided to restart bg3 again since I wasn't super satisfied playing Dark Urge. Don't get me wrong I love Durge, still my favorite origin, but I've already seen so much content from it it just felt stale.

I looked back at the other origin characters because I love premade characters in games, I don't know why.

Anyways, I picked Gale because I wanted to romance Lae'zel and thought the pairing of the two was hilarious. Plus it kept the team dynamic I wanted.

Pick him, get out of the pod, and the first thing he says is "Where the blazes am I?"

and all I can think of is this

I can already tell I'm gonna have a fun time

Yeah, playing into the Dark Urge is evil and all, but I don't think it truly beats the pure, sadistic, unadulterated evil of playing as a morally good character throughout the entire game, only to shift at the end. Just picture it. The entire time you've convinced everyone around you that you're a genuinely kind, helpful, and loving person. You're dependable. You're empathetic and go out of your way to listen to people's worries. In a Dark Urge run, you lose Karlach and Wyll, potentially Gale; if you don't threaten him into staying, and Selûnite Shadowheart. By the time you finish Act 1, everyone knows exactly what type of person you are. You're a monster and you like it. Every terrible action you take is expected. No one's surprised. Some even enjoy it. But just imagine you fool everyone. Imagine you save Astarion from Cazador and break his cycle of abuse. Imagine you help Karlach slay Gortash and give her hope for the future. Imagine you convince Shadowheart to reject Shar and reunite with her parents. Imagine you show Lae'zel the truth behind her queen and encourage her to rebel. Imagine you talk Gale into giving up his ambitions and soothe his insecurities. Imagine you break Wyll's contract with Mizora and save his father. You become the one person they can rely on. You make them feel heard. Cared for. Safe. Then, at the end of your wondrous journey, you betray them. You reveal your true intentions, which was to take control of the brain all along. There were no warning signs. No indication that you could ever do something so vile and wicked. You hid your desires well. All that intimacy and compassion was nothing more than a set up for your own twisted amusement. You've wanted to hurt them from the start—and you do. You smile as you take control of their minds, sensing their pain, sorrow, and fear. You feel their skin crawl. You feel their hearts shatter as they realise what you've done. Why? How could you? They trusted you.
