Today’s game is Baldur’s Gate 3. I managed to get my friends together to keep playing and we went into the under dark. So far it has been hell. For example: These fuckass birds. I was stumbling around down there doing stealth and suddenly got spotted by one from the other side of a huge pit. And what does it do? It calls all its friends. And suddenly my entire party is swarmed by like 3 of these things and a random drow that seems to have an issue with us.

We had another friend that wanted to join our campaign but the 4 player limit stopped him. I tried getting a mod that raises the count to 8 to work, but I found out it’s crossplay is broken and in order to use it I need to switch to the Windows Build instead of the Native Linux one. So I gave up and we just started another save. He was asking pretty hard for mods, so I took the liberty of adding the gunslinger just for fun. I came up with this lady.

The mod is actually kind of broken because it just has a spell that chucks like 25 guns at you and they don’t need Ammo or anything. Because of that I try to stay mostly out of combat.

Anyways, going back to the main save. After killing those birds and then getting into a fight with some slavers further back. I went and made my way to the tree I was looking for. I went into sneak mode so I didn’t piss anyone off. Apparently though Shadowheart didn’t get the Memo and didn’t sneak. So she got seen. I didn’t though! I ended up just climbing onto this branch and playing with Photo Mode since the others were about to quit anyways. I like to imagine you can hear Shadowheart fighting for her life back there.

I also tried to get a party picture but couldn’t get the framing right and Baldur’s Gate 3’s photo mode for some reasons highlights things. So I took this and gave up for the night. I think I was onto some thing. I’m not sure what though

    My first thought was that it was an artistic render of the flood from halo.

    The scenery matches the first mission you encounter the flood in and the creature on the left looks like a jackal infected with the flood to me
