Oh my... I can't wait. This has been incredible so far, and I've no doubt that BG2 will be even more insane. I wonder... will it be better or worse because I know some of what's coming and little of what was going to happen in BG1? I have no idea... But this ought to be a fun ride. For the record... it's been two and a half years since the thread was posted. That's a hell of a trip.

Aumanor posted:What was the longest-running LP so far? I think it was Planescape:Torment LP, and that took over 4 years. Looks like this one might actually beat the record. It's debatable if you want to call it actually running, but Spirit Armor's anime strategy game/dating sim LP was started at least four years ago.

You know I wish I could mod so that I could make some dialogues with Sarevok in Throne of Bhaal specifically dogging on him for getting killed by my exploding bunnies. And while we are wishing I wish we had fan art in this thread. Specifically I wish I could draw Syvishtar and Shar-Teel during their halcyon days of strength and grace and the loving appreciation of said strength and grace (if little of pleasantness).

I don't have access to my full Roll of the Dead notes right now, but I do believe there's an actual winner for the title of most frequently killed party member, clocking in at eight separate deaths.

Was the Imoen romance the one clearly written by a rape fetishist whose wife ended up exploding on the mod forums when she found out what he was into? If it was anyone but Imoen I'd strongly suggest keeping the worse mod in.

And seriously - I have read some people in the modding community praising the Imoen Romance for exploring themes of rape, incest, and torture. People really do get off to this poo poo, and I can understand why Vorgen didn't install it.

By the way, those of you who voted for E? In my opinion, you missed the point of this LP. We are not here to watch a story reach its logical conclusion. There is no logic here. We are here to witness a person who has gone crazy from exposure to chaos and wild magic play a character who was insane to begin with. Story progression isn't what we are here for. We are here to watch an army of fluffy bunnies explode when provoked!

If I were gonna guess it adds some things for Imoen to say after Spellhold and before Throne of Bhaal because she was originally supposed to die and that was changed pretty late in the dev cycle. And since it's a BG2 mod, she'll have about a million things to say.

I suppose it's one less person trying to get into Imoen's pants. There are three mods as it is.

And I think Vorgen does the best job with that I've seen. I think both E and B were good endings which build on everything the LP's been about so far - E builds on the Golden Company and Syv's callousness, B builds on the themes of the Weave and Syv's power madness and exploitation of the rules of magic. I'm glad those two were the most-voted for, as they're honestly the two strongest conclusions. Yes, I'm a huge nerd who takes this kind of poo poo too seriously, what of it

 Syvishtar, you dumb pointy-eared fuckstick. Wild magic is not the loving will of the Weave. It is Mystra's death scream, created when Helm killed Mystra during the Time of Troubles. All the work Midnight, Torm, and I put into healing the Weave... and you, bastard child of murder, seem intent on tearing it all apart again. Says you. I like his style. He's got game. Perhaps, but he should beware. This particular abyss not only stares back, it bites. Embracing magic is one thing, but... I do not know if I like where this lost child of ours is going. I do! Hear me, Syvishtar. Where there is chaos, I am. Where there is destruction, I flourish. Where order is cast down and the illusion of peace shattered for no greater purpose than because it is in one man's power to do so, one of the oldest and greatest gods of Faerun smiles. Go forth, Syvishtar, with the blessing of Talos the Destroyer! If you're quite done bellowing, there is some bookkeeping to take care of now.Final Roll of the Dead of BG1!

Finch! Fear not, Finch. Barring any unforeseen reality revisions, your part in this saga is done. Go forth and live your life, and know that you will always have a place at my side. I certainly hope so. I don't know if I've ever had to do that much paperwork for one person. As it is, the title of Most Lethal Enemy goes to... a tie, between Syvishtar(a) and the humble Bandit at eight party member kills apiece! Ouch. Joining the elf's adventure isn't necessarily a death sentence. The following companions were never killed in Baldur's Gate 1: Bardo Furfoot, Ferthgil Trollslayer, Garrick, Gavin, Keiria Silverstring, Lady Seafoam Wonderbounce, Mulgore, Quayle, Rose, Safana, and Wulfgar. Lucky bastards. Some now go their separate ways, but others are not so fortunate. They will have many more chances yet to become collateral damage like the Weave. Then it is time to make your wagers for the next, far larger round. We are waiting for you, Syvishtar(a).

Ghostwoods posted:o_O OK. I just need to know something here. The Xan thing was toggled during one of the weave sex changes, thus the romance was triggered. The romance scripts, as far as I know, don't allow for sex changes to muck with the script. Thus, once female, always potentially? female. So...unless Syv puts on a certain belt or THE WEAVE WILLS, then we won't be seeing the Sarevok Romance. So...very random. Yes.

Any tp2 of a mod you haven't yet installed, so that you don't have to uninstall anything. But honestly, the real problem is with the file itself, so deleting from override would solve everything. I made a typo and that made weidu think the file is shorter than it actually is
