Highlight: Let's see what happens when you are playing as Astarion and side with Minthara. #PRCopy !
1So, out of curiousity I did the recruit Minthara path on my Astarion playthrough, and wooooof. I do not like it. Spoilery chat ahead for that path and why I won't be continuing on with it. Keeping in mind I knew what I had to do in order to recruit her, I knew what I was getting into by choosing her over Halsin. What I didn't expect was how terrible I'd feel doing so. The betrayed anguish of Zevlor really hit me in the feels. We carried on through the Tieflings until we needed a rest (that fight really sapped all my party spell slots!) In that fight, Wyll dipped as soon as the slaughter began. Karlach left when I returned to camp.
Gale, oh Gale Dekarios of Waterdeep was not happy with me at all. If not for using 3 Inspiration he too would have permanently left the party. So now I'm down to him, Lae'zel and Shadowheart. Karlach dipped during this moment when I spoke with her. Despite my misgivings, I carried on to slaughter the druids as well. The only druid I didn't feel bad for killing was Kagha. Then it was time to party (I guess?) the game sent me straight to camp where Minthara laid her claim to Astarion straight away.
At first I said no when she got very dominant with him and that meant she decided to shank Astarion in his sleep. The lady doth not take rejection well. So I reloaded and well, she got her reverse cowgirl on with our resident vamp. In that quiet moment, I rolled well enough to probe into her fears and the scared young woman she actually is. That was interesting, and I wish we could get to know her without having to commit mass murder.
At the end of the stream, I said I'd roll back and save Halsin cause while I can do a Renegade run in ME3 pretty easy; this was beyond what I as a player could endure. I put that at the writing of these characters and how alive the world and they feel. Well done @larianstudios
