HEARTACHE OF CHAOS - MARES IN THE SKY

The warmth of the sun could not reach the shadows; it wallows, knowing it cannot say "You did your best."

i do have to say that no matter how shitty any sort of media is or how shitty your own creations are. always remember

your characters love it when you draw them floating and/or in a white void. it gives them a break from existing within the context of reality for a while it’s relaxing

I think personally that if I were to rewrite Halsin, I would make him infinitely hornier, not because I only care about his horniness and don't think he should have a character outside sex, but because his horniness pisses off the exact kind of whiners I think we should always strive to piss off. For a bit of crunchy texture we can make him kill more gobbos and Drow and fuck more monsters.

and the new halsin story I just posted isn't even the werebear preg content I made for that lovely ask from earlier today

I, possessed by demons, wrote 2000+ words of another story that's nowhere near done, and then thought 'but I want to post a little something TODAY' and wrote another 1500+ words of knocked up halsin (also nowhere near done)

#ready for the feast

Spent my Halloween playing The Excavation of Hob's Barrow. An atmospheric point-and-click quest about the horrors of the isolated British outback with ancient superstitions and paranormal phenomena. Besides, the main character is voiced by Samantha Béart and in some scenes you can hear Dave Jones. Karlach and Halsin crossed paths again. What else do I need?

P.S. I belive Dave mentioned this review on Neil's stream 😆

I saw a comment on Youtube once again whining that Halsin is the only one who can break the Shadow Curse, and it's so stupid I have to break it down line by line.

Damn, I thought that you were going to find a weird solution. But this is my reason for disliking Halsin more than any other character.

... Because he's a highly skilled Druid who is the only one capable of understanding a deeply complex curse?

In character, he has spent a hundred years, moping around, trying to learn the way to get to Thaniel, to break the Shadow curse.

If by "moping around" you mean researching the curse and working to gain favor with Silvanus so that he can be blessed with a way into the Shadowfell to rescue Thaniel while ALSO trying his best in a position he was set up for failure at, then yes! You're absolutely right, he's been moping!

In the process it seams that he has neglectedd his duties at the Emerald Grove, which is now a hot bed of Shadow Druid intrigue.

Or, hear me out, he never wanted to be a leader, and was bad at being a leader because no one ever taught him leadership skills before forcing him into a position he never wanted after a battle traumatic enough to give him literal PTSD, and his pleas for the Emerald Grove's parent organization (the Emerald Enclave) went ignored, leaving him entirely on his own?

More than half the druids easily follow Kagha, given the chance.

More than half the USA now follows Trump. Does this mean Obama was a failure of a leader, or does it mean that propaganda from fascists is terrifyingly effective?

He hasa also never travelled to the nearby Baldur's Gate, never had contact with Jaheira, or others who were part of the battle against Ketheric. etc.

He specifically says, if asked, that he thought Jaheira died, and is relieved to learn she didn't. The only survivors he knew of were the ones he rescued himself.

In game, he gets himself captured, requires that you save him, and kill 3 leaders, whilst he sits around in the worg pen, whittling a piece of wood or somthing.

A bold-faced lie. He offers to come help you fight, and he only stays behind if you specifically tell him his bear form is a liability.

Then IF you have done everything that he wants, when you find Art at Last Light Inn, he demands that you cover his escape whilst he wanders off to rescue Oliver.

... Do you mean Thaniel? If so, did you just ignore the part where he warns you the portal will fail if anyone else goes in with him? In fact, in earlier versions of the game, there was literally a scene where you could try to enter the portal and cause just that thing to happen, dooming the land to be cursed forever.

He offers no benefit to your party, and if you make a single mistake, the Shadow Curse stays.

"A single mistake" as in getting the only person capable of lifting the curse killed, or not doing the things necessary to lift the curse? Yes, most curses tend to stay when the conditions to break the curse aren't met. This is like watching Shrek and whining that Fiona would have stayed stuck transforming into an ogre every night if no one ever found her. That's how curses work, genius, welcome to the fantasy genre!

Most of the game Larian offers alternative solutions. This is one situation where they do not, and it feels wrong.

There's no alternative offered to recruit Minsc; you either rescue Jaheira and attack him using non-lethal attacks, or he dies. You either fix Karlach's engine and send her to Avernus, or she dies. You either visit the Grove and stop Kagha, or Arabella dies. You either save the Tieflings, or they all die. You either free Mizora from her pod, or Wyll gets worse than dead. Do I need to list every instance of a problem in this game that has only one solution?
