WERE WE EVER MEANT TO VENTURE SO FAR? @sageofthestrange - Tumblr Blog

“Pleasure to me is wonder—the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden and the changeless thing that lurks behind superficial mutability. To trace the remote in the immediate; the eternal in the ephemeral; the past in the present; the infinite in the finite; these are to me the springs of delight and beauty.” — H.P. Lovecraft in "The Defence Remains Open!" (April 1921), published in Collected Essays, Volume 5: Philosophy edited by S. T. Joshi, p. 53

In an effort to get back to BG3 as a whole, I've set aside the majority of my evening if need be to download ALL my mods again in a working order. Got myself connected to LAN for this. 😤

I may have miscalculated.

I still lurk. Valeryana will always lurk.

I miss you all. Aaaaa.

I WILL BE BACK.

“I can make him better” “I can make him worse” well I can make him appreciate what he already is and love the parts I see but he doesn’t.

BG3 Narrative Changes Post-Full Release

An update on the project I have been working on over the past weeks, to compile a record of all the narrative changes Larian has made to Baldur's Gate 3 post-Full Release — particularly those changes that have affected characterization. There are many of these changes that are not common knowledge, even among dedicated fans, simply due to the size of the game and the varied narrative pathways one can take.

As stated in my original post, this is a neutral project not meant to be either inherently supportive or critical of said changes, but merely to act as a record and reference for those who would like to be aware of them. Particularly with new fans always entering the fandom, I want them to be able to understand aspects of the story that are no longer present in the game, but might still be referenced and impactful to fandom discussions.

I will continue to update the log as I receive new submissions via the report form, and have the opportunity to verify to the best of my ability that the material in question was truly changed, as opposed to potentially bugged in some playthroughs, etc. If you are aware of any changes that you do not see on the spreadsheet, please submit a report form, as I am only one person, and cannot happen across all of the potential changes – especially with so many unannounced – on my own.

Do you know about the Tumblr ai deal? You can turn off 3rd party scrapers (ai) in blog settings. -has to be done for every blog-

hi Anonnie ! yup, already had it toggled on.

for anyone who doesn’t know about this yet, here’s a quick tutorial. artists, edit makers, gfx makers, and writers, you will need to do this for every blog.

01 / go to your blog settings

02 / scroll all the way down until you see ‘Visibility’

03 / turn on the toggle for preventing third-party sharing

… hope that helps ! and thanks for the reminder, sweet Anonnie 🤍

It's about devotion and obsession. It's ALWAYS about devotion and obsession. And hunger. It's love with teeth.

Glad to see I haven't been the only one taking a break suddenly, hdjdjf;. But it's very good and inspiring to see everyone come back and be so patient with one another even if it has been weeks or months. ❤️🙌

#OOC.#(listen. i deeply appreciate people's patience and using their time for me ;_;)#(i get scared to come back but seeing everyone pop in and out WITHOUT anxiety or time stress is incredible and very relieving)#(you are all gems :'D)
