![[Clip] Karlach & Astarion Mischief (BG3 Cast Play D&D Stream Highlight)](/img/1.gif)
I'm at the 38 minute mark, hearing BG3 has 248 voice actors... wow, what a legendary production.
And I know it's a bit of a joke but that's only possible because Larian is an independent studio. No publicly trade company could allow for keeping that much money out of the pockets of their investors. Here Swen Vincke just wanted to make the best game possible, even if it meant not filling his pockets as much as he could have. (and now he got tenfold back)
they are own by tencent (30% of it their company) @@Robalogot
@@Robalogot They've got some cash after Tencent bought 30% of shares though.
@@emzdanowicz2775 Every time I hear Tencent's name I shudder. Hopefully, I won't live long enough to witness a timeline when Tencent has everything in monopoly.
I read the whole credits.
With all the involved people listed.
Loved the staff comments and memorable moments.
Best game of the decade
Ya'll gotta stop asking Neil weird, uncomfortable questions man
Ikr that was so painful to watch dear god
This comment put me right off watching 😂 cheers for the heads up
I heard “there’s this discourse going around on twitter” and I broke out into hives. literally nothing good ever comes out of a sentence that begins with that lol. actors don’t owe you confirmation of your headcanons
Great panel. I was kinda sad that Minthara didn't get any questions, she's such a unique character that many players don't get to experience.
I mean it IS a choice to go Evil tho. Most players want to be heroes.
No worries Neil is going to have her on his stream for more questions soon
@@beardedgeek973 fun fact, you can recruit minthara without going the "evil" route. there's plenty of videos in youtube on how to do that if you don't believe me
Poor halsin as well. Asterion and gale kinda had the kings horde of questions which i guess isnt surprsing but a shame.
@@beardedgeek973 meh you can be a cornball hero and still have Minthara on squad. When shes on your team she doesnt actively stop you from being a hero.
"As the symbol glows, power courses through you. Authority." Amelia Tyler is an incredibly talented narrator. She has presence, emotional intelligence and a voice that amplifies both.
I think from now on every time I'll read the word "Authority" I'll hear it in her voice.
@@tsubasa1885 She's replaced cartman for me
After playing the game, her speech sounds canon. Like if she said it's raining, water would start dropping.
Minthara has such a unique voice
When Gortash died, Samantha Beart's performance left me in tears for Karlach. Great Job!
I wanted to reach through my screen and give the poor girl a hug.
That was a great performance, and I hope that it furthers her career.. @@jonbaxter2254
damn one of the best scenes, such defeat
@@jonbaxter2254 larian needs to add an option to just hug the companions
Happened to me last night 😢
im so happy that VAs are getting recognition and are treated like stars that they are. seeing them like this makes me smile
Did you ever hear anyone say "Matt, what time is it"?
VAs already got recognition, the fact that BG3 is such a special game at a time where we so hungered for quality and the VAs a convenient face for it, takes it up a well-deserved notch.
They prefer being called Actors, not just voice actors since they did mocap alongside voicing
@@TealTheDropster found the ‘ackshually’ guy
@@TealTheDropster You know that for a fact?
Right on. In the age where tech bros are gunning to replace everything with AI we gotta keep showing our appreciation to the actors.
They really should have vetted the questions and got at least one for everyone, that one Theo got felt like the introduction to a ten page essay rather than a question. He handled it really well though lol
Emma Gregory (Minthara) wearing an Iron Maiden shirt makes me love Minthara even more. My favorite companion
Dave sitting on the couch next to Tim in the intro has me giggling, he swamps him, he really is a big guy himself. It seems very much like Halsin sitting next to Gale, life imitating art 😂
love how halsin's actor's wearing a shirt with a bear 😂😂
Damn, Theo got hit with a hard question to answer, haha, but he and everyone did great. Can't wait to see the other panel where Dev and Jen wear the get along shirt, lol.
yeah no kidding. it was definitely a neil question cause he's been doing mocap for ages. weird that it got directed to theo
@@xaicho At first I thought she was gonna get into story stuff, how Wyll lost his eye, to show how different kinds of ppl are represented, but yeah, it went into the technical stuff. 😅 He tried his best though, not much he could say.
Is there a second panel?
@@Mershl Yeah, there's another one, but don't think it's on RUclips.
yeah I mean I didnt really understand the question - and dont really think Theo did either. Cant blame him. But I think he did really well.
39:58 The point at which Theo realises that she hasn't actually asked him a question, she's just stated a whole lot of stuff that she's interested in, so eventually he has to chuck it back to her and it just tails off into an observation.
Bro idk what she was talking about she just kinda talked without having a point lol
@@zay0925ip there a point it was just a really packed question and Theo Solomon isnt really the person to ask it
I know, I was like listening to her and was like huh, "the hells you going on about"?
Glad Im not the only one, that was so confusing to hear and felt bad for Theo because it's not a question or acknowledgement towards his character.
The panel was great but I can't help but feel that Neil's "outfit" question was pretty uncomfortable for him. I'm glad Dave spoke up because he looked like he really needed a light way to transition from that situation. Don't be gross yall.
IMO there should have been a bit more respect for the actor's boundaries there.
He is a very capable director and actor, I just preferred those kinds of questions. He is own real person not the fictional vampire.
this question was double awkward since Astarion hates to be objectified... me wondering if that person even paid attention to his story. But I love how Dave intervened, well done on his part. Unfortunate Niel seemed to get the awkward questions (like how would Astarion be as a father)
@@TwilightMemories Judging by the amount of people on youtube who modded a literal dog collar on Astarion, I doubt it. I knew people were going to be fucking weird about the VAs so I decided I was going to read the comments first to see...yeesh
I'm very susceptible to second-hand embarrassment and I'm afrad to watch this now, even though (or because?) I adore the game and the cast. Why do these things alawys have to be so awkward :(
I was expecting this moment to be a lot more cringy because of this comment, lol. It's a mite more cringy than almost all Q&A questions from geeks, but just a skosh.
Dave really swooped in as the slutty bear daddy and said “hey, objectify this!” And I love him for it. I know it was meant to be a funny question and the asker likely didn’t know it would be such an uncomfy question for Neil specifically, but it feels so bad seeing him try to navigate those kinds of questions. Thank the gods for Daddy Dave saving the day. 🫶🏻
Jaheira dying at Moonrise Towers really is a problem. I was so happy when I finally won the fight just to then think: huh strange...haven't seen Jaheira the whole fight, where is she?
Well she was there. Dead. Had to reload xDDD
Awesome interview tho, they all seem like such kind people
her only fucking problem is that she casted that ice storm to the center of the arena just so she can jump there later and slipped to prone, cosplaying as hitting target for my bae Z'rell
I destroyed everyone in Moonrise before she got there so she survived
Yeah, happened to me in my first playthrough. For anyone who doesn't know, she gets added as an extra companion if you ask her to come along so you can manage her health that way. (I thought I'd have to send someone away at first, and I needed everyone there for quests so I let her lead the Harpers - big mistake!)
See, what I did, was I just casted Feign Death on her. Won't be damaged by pretty much anything, won't move, and it lasts for 10 turns which is longer than it would take to just finish the fight. It came in clutch the many times I did that fight.
Jaheira’s turn: please stay BACK and don’t call attention to you till I solve this little mess.
some of yall are craaaazy for some of those questions
rare Minthara sighting
Playing with Minthara was so good. After one of my runs with her, it is hard to not "help" her and take her every time.
Same, I don't think I can ever 'save' the tieflings if it means killing Minthara. At most I'll just ignore the druid conflict. She's my favorite character.
@@airrocker001 use a mod
The solution to this is not the mod, Larian must find a solution himself. minthara is truly a mysterious jewel.
For me it's that way with Halsin. Just love him too much. Wanna help Minthara in my next run tho, I hope my heart can take leaving Halsin behind haha
@@gojo9442 Fair enough, I love Halsin too. He's good without being pretentious like Wyll (least fav character). If I could have Halsin and Minthara over Wyll, I'd absolutely do it.
A bit bummed out laezel did not get any questions she was not a likeable character to many i guess personality wise but that voice acting just seems like it mustve been the hardest i also liked laezel cus she did not sugarcoat anything and was so direct prolly my favourite voice actor next to astarion
Oh there's a ton of love for her too. They just didn't have time for many questions. She has been streaming the game too
It's crazy how iconic these characters and their voices have become!
You did an excellent job Wheels! That size panel, plus that few microphones…you still held it together.
ah thanks very much! It was no small feat haha
"it's not mine, I swear" - meanwhile baby sips blood
What a bunch of goobers. Loved hearing them talk about their job like that.
absolutely went bonkers when astarion pointed out one of the directors and the "hidden" larian people.. bless you all for this masterpiece...lots of ♥ from the Philippines
Minthara has be best voice actor in the entire game. Emma Gregory has an incredibly talented vocal ability and her character has the best dialogue. Much love to you Emma.
A game, with PHENOMINAL casting. My heart jumped out of my chest when JAHEIRA AND MINSC legacy characters made their appearance.
Will we ever see another game with this amount of passion and joy out of its voice actors as BG3 does!?
Roger Clark as Arthur Morgan from RDR2.
@@trinityx3o522 very true. My review of the game put ESV and RDR2 as comparable game value per cost. Arthur and Dutch could be a comedy skit till the end of time and I’d love it.
“WE’RE GOING TO TAHITI!”
@@DaDude2011 If you wanna see some games where all the devs are just as passionate as the players, watch some of the dev videos of Warframe & Star Citizen. You can tell the devs of the respective games care about what they're working on with how they engage with the community. I'm sure there are more examples, but I'm heavily invested in these 2 specific games.
@@trinityx3o522 star citizen really? Isn’t that the game that has been crowd funded and sucking peoples donations for the last decade to yet have anything produced? Not to be insensitive but I’ve heard too many disappointing stories about them so far. I’ve played Warframe a few years back and had a blast for a bit. Great free game with what seems to be a very responsive development team with their own game convention (tennocon). I’ve been off shooter games for quite some time now though and hence why I can’t get enough of games like BG3. RPG/RTS games have been close to my heart ever since OGs AOEII and CC Red Alert back in 1997.
@@trinityx3o522 but I can also tell from those two choice of games that you enjoy your sci-fi themes. If interested in a galaxy spanning RTS - I recommend Sins of a Solar Empire. The mods for it alone are worth purchase (Mass Effect/Halo/Star Trek/Star Wars mods)
I'm still hoping that we get a BG3 cast crossover with Critical Role for some D&D, especially Neil, Jen, Amelia and Devora!
Considering 3 of them will be at NYCC...OMG that is gonna be a cluster to deal with.
magical item eating f boy gale HELPPPPP
Did I fall in love with this cast? Yes. Everyone. Did this panel lead to me loving them more? Yes it did. Thank you. This was a gift. 🧛🐻👥❤👽🪄🧙♀️🖖🏽😜
I wonder who you pictured Karlach as 😂 Is it 👥 or 😜?
@@user-mu8dm4rk7g I 'read' that as Shadow+Heart and Karlach is 😜
Almost 200+ hrs playing and still not done yet. I am happy for their success. I am so happy for Larian Studios and hopefully BG4 is on the way lol. It would take a while again to create another masterpiece. Hopefully I could get to play it before I even die.
A part 4 would be great!
11:30 JAHEIRA ROMANCE DLC.
WANT
I agree, I romanced her in BG2 and wished I could in BG3 as well.
Man i max her relationship bar, spam long rest... No intimate scene. Sad.
@@Lokhir100She's still getting over Khalid and Charname/Abdel. She doesn't have it in her to go for another one. She outlived all her lovers
Neil's laugh just fills me with so much joy and giddiness
#justiceforBingBong
I am so happy and grateful to have been in the audience for this amazing Panel event @ MCM Comic Con !
Same! Going through a withdrawal phase 😂😂😂
Thanks for posting this, I really wanted to see the whole interview! :)
thank you for this! really grateful i was able to attend for the saturday panel but gutted i couldn't make this one with the additional cast members, so being able to watch it back is great, i adore this cast so much!
Thank you for posting. I was so disappointed to not be able to attend . It's great to be able to watch😊😊
I was there! It was absolutely amazing but it also felt so short since they were so many of them all together. Wish we could've had way more ahhh! Thank you for uploading this.
Terrific assembly! Every single one of these people are fantastic actors and their voices will always be in my head! Just as much as if they all made a really good dramatic movie together. Thanks for doing this!
Love this cast. They all did such an amazing job and I hope with the success of this game, we get to see/hear them in more big projects
Fantastic panel, thank you for posting.
Thank you for posting this!
Wheels was the moderator for the BG3 panel?! Oh my gosh, that's awesome.
This was a great interview. I'd love to go to comic con, but I have anxiety with large groups of people. Thanks for sharing this video.
Theo had a hard question to answer I didn’t understand it. I love the entire cast but I’m sad that the actor who voiced minthara didn’t get any questions.
the person was asking about accessibility in relation to mocap
@@jlog3540 yeah... unfortunately I don't think the cast are the ones to ask.
Thank you all for your acting and for answering questions. 👏 great work all!
I just finished the game and found this video... I needed more of this beloved characters! I absolutely love them and love BG3. Thanks Larian, the actors, writers, directors, sound crew, etc. Now I'm going for a super evil character playthrough! :D
My favorite games were KOTOR 1&2 until BG3 came out.
I'm 35.
Never played D&D before but now I'm 3 sessions in and im hooked.
Honestly the best game I've ever played.
can also say that witcher 3 and mass effect trio may be something for you, they are also great rpgs
So glad i tried this game on ps5, my first dnd game. I love it, my goty, real masterpiece. Thanks Larian, voice actors, and everyone that worked on the game.
I love them all so much!!! And there's a special place for Tim/Gale in my heart ❤️
Finally go to see the full panel. Kudos to Wheels, you were an awesome panel host! The cast was amazing and there were some excellent questions from the audience that really highlighted some things for me I hadn't been aware of before. :) Thanks for posting this and sharing.
I could listen to Minthara talk all day
glad to see these VA's getting the recognition they deserve
Jeez they really need to premoderate questions. At least half of fans' questions were boring at best, rambling nonsense half of the time and innapropriate at worst.
Like asking Tim who is the best character to romance Gale, to which he obviously doent know what to say since he acted them all.
The second question for Theo was just rambling, it made no sense and it was obvious he didn't know what he was even supposed to say.
And Neil just got lucky this time. Like asking Neil what was it like to play Astarion after Kamski since they are so different which is??? He's an actor? He plays different roles and it's his literal job??? what was he supposed to say.......And the last one was just sooo innapropriate. Asking THAT in front of everyone, like girl, who raised you? Considering the whole Astarions story and the fact that Neil opened up as a survivor himself soon after the release of the game, explicitly sexualizing his character like this is just gross. I would bet she's one of those who choose the Ascended route and claim it be the happy ending.
Also the fact that there were questions for everyone except Dave and Emma is just rude. What was the point of inviting them, to make then just sit mostly quietly while the other speak?
Agreed, but sadly this was fairly tame as far as these types of panels go. I don't know why it brings out such... bold questions. To put it kindly. I was at a Q&A for Watcher (Ghost Files) about a month ago and someone tried to get the pants size of Shane to "make him an outfit he MUST WEAR next time he's in Cleveland." Dawg it was straight up awful. I couldn't watch anymore. I feel like Q&A panels need to be better at either vetting questions before they are asked or state clear guidelines/rules ahead of time (and make better rules for them IMO).
Amazing cast!
Neil you gem "come and find me later, lets have a hug". Also Shawn you are awesome for shouting out the sign interpreters
Simply spectacular
Love them all 🤩🤩🤩
Awesome cast! 249 hrs into the game, and still just having fun running around the city in Act 3. Totally skipped the Underdark too. Gotta do that in my next play-through.
Adore hearing Dev and Jen not realizing their mic’s are on in the beginning lmaooo
Wtf was that question towards Neil? Some of y'all need to learn shame and respect.
They are so wholesome, damn
That's awesome!
Helsin maybe not be in your party but i guarantee almost everyone who has played the game has watched the "bear" scene somewhere.
In all my time playing RPG's, I don't think I have ever seen a response to a cast bigger than this. Not just this event, but in general.
People liked the Bioware RPG main casts, a lot, but its not even close to this.
Minthara WE LOVE YOU!
Also there is a way (without mods) to get Halsin and Minthara as of Patch 3 (hadn't checked on Patch 4) - it's a bit convoluted but requires you to skip around a bit and then break her out and go back to safe place where you find Jaheira initially. She ends up where she ends up still if you sided with her. It's... interesting.
they patched it up for 4
As of patch 5 you can knock her out and then complete the quest of killing the goblin leaders before a longrest then going to moonrise in act 2 she should appear there
But where's Minsc
and Boo
Samantha Beart firing shots at 11:20 lmfao
15:00 such a deep and beautiful statement.🥲
GD, Amelia Tyler is the most beautiful person with the most amazing voice.
The last question was so embarrassing and puts the fanbase in a bad light. although there are much more interesting questions. how uncomfortable Neil must have felt.
I wouldn't lump the whole fandom in with one person's bad question because that would be a little unfair but I've noticed at conventions that sometimes people with questions aren't given any guidelines about what not to ask at panels. Neil is also not afraid to play with Astarion's flirtiness during his own streams and unfortunately that might make some people feel invited to ask these things. Really it doesn't make any sense to ask about something so specific in the fanart anyway because there's no way for any actor to keep track of all of that.
Ouch, yeah - that was not cool. Neil did a great pivot through - super professional and prepared - and excellent assist by Dave to redirect it. I've seen him manage inappropriate fan comments in other places with similar grace and aplomb; he's really good at sticking to talking points when they're needed (it sucks that they are sometimes...)
and totally inappropriate in relation to the character's story. Either the person hasn't played the game or they don't care about the theme.
I think a bit of it came from Neil making jokes on his own stream with Dave about the Astarion/Halsin/Gale ' hot sandwich' drawing. But it is true, the question could have been aimed at a different topic or worded better. :)
He made jokes but also said that fanart was questionable @@AquaMaryn.
28:08 .She could not hold it in.. WOW, look at the cast faces with that question...
I loved it, except next to nothing from Emma Gregory. 😢
All of them are great people :)
Watching this while waiting 500 years for patch #6 to download.
8:27 Wrong. You can have both Halsin and Minthara now, and I hope it stays that way.
Tskva! Debora didn't have much to say😄
Chk! unfortunately not many people had much to ask about our extraplanar companion.
❤ the badasses are seated near each other!
WONDERFUL
Let's gooo!!
Questions were so lame and awkward, the cast was solid and i could hear them ramble about anything forever.
Sam as Karlach - phew 🔥🔥
It is so exciting to see and hear all my beloved characters life. And I must apologize to the actress of Lae'Zel: I really hate Lae'Zel but I love the actress.
He sounds exactly like Jack Whitehall!
Who?
Everyone is obsessed with Asterion lol I kinda love it
Whole crew is awesome but I'd llike to see Clare Corbett in there. Kagha is a great character even tho she's not a companion.
A bit sad there was no Minsc.
the question at 42:00 had me giggle a bit because in my second playtrough I had a bug that made astarion strip everything but his undies avter every cutscene
Sounds fun! 😆
That's amazing. 😂
Minthara best companion
HALSIN APPRECIATION
The kisses were beautiful and the performances were beautiful!
didn't know Sam was nonbinary!! already loved them but love them all the more now!
This was the first time I've heard Gale and Mintara(?) speak.
I'm a quarter in act 2.
Who is Mintara? Is she a act 3 character?
And is there a way to find Gale late. He never appeared in the portal early act 1
I know what you mean with entire cast, but if they literally crammed 248 voice actor people on stage that would be pretty crazy 😅
8:28 Not anymore ❤
How awkward did you feel when you realized the name slipup? :P Also i am so happy for Mark Humes for making Bing-Bong
Karlach is a favorite ❤
I want to see them in full cosplay. And to watch the interview on shrooms.
Yess plsss❤❤
