As someone who never knew of BG 1 and 2, I really appreciate the lore talking and some essential book reading for establishing background and world building. Thanks Wolf!
Dunno if this was figured out later on, but the reason you couldn't open the trapped sarcophagus was because you detected a trap on it, so the default action is to try to disarm. You can right-click and use the open action still.
Wyll's intro went from hilariously bad in very early EA, to good in the last EA release to actually pretty great in the final release Really shows the work Larian put in the game
Me and a buddy finally got time to play and we just played like we were 18 again. 11 hours straight after work. We both have wives and I have kids so it's unlikely to happen to again by my God this game is incredible. Thanks for all your lead up to this Wolf.
Wolf these playthroughs have been an absolute treat as someone whose waiting for PS5 release, and the fact that this game is so reactive to choice I don’t even consider them spoilers because I’m gonna be making my own decisions when I play. Keep up the good work ❤
@@angerkun I think it’s been stated that cross save is supported, but I would fact check me. I think it’s up in the air if cross play is possible between pc and ps5 multiplayer. But I think cross save is possible.
@@zwenkwiel816my wife is getting it on ps5. And i am on pc. So cross save if i want to relax on the couch instead of infront of my pc. Nice touch imo.
Second and third play through are even more fun imo. I piled up all those corpses in the crypt and lit it on fire right before I hit the button and they all burned as soon as they animated. 😂😂😂
You’re right. They changed it since early access =(. Loving the game so much. It’s even more fun the. It was in early access. Even though you can’t pile up the bodies anymore.
I love the LP! Don't feel pressured to miss sides quests and the like for the videos. They are fun and I'm sure a lot of us would love to see how you solve them.
Not sure if anyone in chat said this already but if you light both candles of the door in the cathedral, it’ll open and you will have turn advantage over the group on the other side including the fire barrel if you dont want to keep it….
Ditto. Half the time I just listen to th commentary and it simultaneously scratches the BG3 itch but also intensifies the hype for when I finally get home.
You are doing great for a Let's Play video, an absolute natural. For books, if you want to read them aloud for your audience you can, but opening each page for a couple of a seconds and then moving to the next page will be enough as people could just pause video, read and move forward.
I cheesed that refectory fight so hard. I went in through the other door and ended up with shared initiative so I had two party members spend their actions opening and closing the door while the other two took potshots while it was open. The only thing the enemy could do was shoot the door for 0 damage on their turn 😈
Glad i wasn't the only one to notice lol. He is just flexing lol, doesn't need 4 characters. I had to skip that fight when I first found it at Lvl 2 ( On Tactician) . Withers just showed to at my camp without doing it.
I think reading some books like „the eyewitness accounts of the bawlspawn crisis“ while sending others to camp could be a good approach for the let’s play series. It’s part of choice and consequence, like everything else 👌🏼
Im playing a bard with decent wisdom and intelligence and its honestly really fun. I have definitely experienced some things that I otherwise wouldn't have with an optimal build. Haven't had any combat difficulties since the rest of my party is super strong.
Not many baldur gate 3 uploads started watching some playthrough yours is the most interesting one ive seen so far has someone who has never played baldurs gate i like how you explain it
Some interesting things I learned today: 1. You can talk to you companions outside of camp, they have a ton to say 2. Gloves of Power don’t need the brand anymore.
Really loving your Let's Play series! I'm enjoying seeing how my playthrough differs from yours. It's incredible how different the story can be within a single game. I'm looking forward to seeing how the dynamic between Astarian and your other companions plays out. So far I have really adored the interplay in story between two of my companions, Karlach and Wyll. Their stories cross in such an interesting way. I suspect others will in other ways too.
My PC has been broken for about a year, and I’ve had way too busy of a life lately to be able to play anything. So diving into this play through fills me with peace while I’m steamrolling through young adulthood. Thank you
I love the updates and added dialogue. I put in 100+ hours within the first couple of weeks when it came out. (3 playthroughs) after leaving it for a while I have come back to play another time, with this on again in the background, and there is still so much to find, discover and read.
Let's plays are generally pretty divided on how to deal with books: 1. Some will actually read through each book aloud to the viewers 2. Some will leaf through them so viewers can pause the video and read it themselves 3. Some skip it altogether I think option 2 should be the minimum that all Let's Play videos go for. 3 is just lazy
Great let’s play series so far. Excited to see where this story goes. You should recap at each starting episode and remind us of your character. I enjoy your narration as well. Thanks! ❤
You don't have to go to a Fast Travel point when breaking camp. If you click Leave Camp you'll be returned to the place you were in before going to camp.
I'd never heard of this game b4 but watching u play it is actually fun and I don't know why. This game seems supreme and the setting is just beyond compression. I think I love ie
Hey Wolf, I think you should just play your let's play series the same as how you would play on your own. I know some people won't care about the contents of books, but other care. So if you want to read books, I think you should definitely do so. It's not like it eats a whole lot of time anyways. Just my 2 cents on the matter. Love the content! So happy we're all finally playing 🎉 Also it's weird that trapped tomb needed a tool kit for you because for me it was open like normal. But I came in through the front and hit the hidden switch to unlock the door with no handle, so maybe that switch also unlocks the tomb?
What i look for in Lets Play series: Tips and Tricks, abit of Lore, interesting/useful builds, perhaps combat tactics tips :) Reading books or letter not for me because while its nice if you read it I wont remember which book it was and will probably read it again myself once found. I appreciate your series I find them interesting and relaxing.
I've seen a several people play this game. This person seem to be the only one that understands that range characters should not be doing melee attacks from the start. And use Clerics and others too BUFF themselves and others.
I don't think you should be too worried about making mistakes. How you adapt and overcome these challenges is what I find the most enjoyable about let's plays and often how I try to enjoy games myself. Sadly I do succumb to the save scumming bug pretty often. Hope you're enjoying playing through the series as much as I'm enjoying watching them, though I'm having to stagger it due to university work, but such is life.
Agreed. Posting anything online will always come with its share of criticism from people. That's the modern internet culture, every nerd thinks they're the smartest person in the comment section lol. Shouldn't worry about these people and just enjoy the game.
Amazing wolf. I’ve been following you for 6 months now since I finally caved and bought EA. So happy to see you play this after all the love you given the game. Got to say it doesn’t disappoint. It’s the best game I’ve played in a long long time. Only downside is we don’t get your pre launch daily videos! Not watching the let’s plays that much for spoilers but dropped in to give a compliment. Look forward to your build guides. Keep it real my man!
I love playing this in the background while I work. Gives me ideas for each time I start over....and I do that way more frequently than I should, I'm sure. I just love lots of different characters.
Wolf! Awooo!! I loved watching your journey my friend. I've love being a support of your growth as well. I'm so excited to see you get to acts you've never been to
I really like your "Let's Play" style. I know you have not done them before, but they are quite good! The only thing I would ask would be to once in a while, articulate a bit of the different DnD lingo that exists. I am not familiar with the mechanics, but am enjoying learning through your videos
Not sure if you knew and just played it off to avoid spoilers but that door you destroyed and alerted all bandits can be opened by lighting both torches on either side of the door from the side you came in. The library mechanism is not needed unless you entered from the door in the chapel above or the whole on the floor middle of the chapel caused by the falling pillar (you can jump into room below through hole created but all bandits will be ecpecting you due to noise from pillar crashing through floor)
I kind of feel bad speeding through the Hollow, there's a lot just hidden in plain sight. The game feels very dense with stuff people might not even notice but still has hooks to lead you through the primary story. I'm just getting out of the first area in my game so I'll try to talk around more in populated areas, maybe do more on a second playthrough. The goblin camp is a bit less crowded but I think they didn't want to block characters out of them if they start making enemies with them or spread it through the blight town
There are also some things you can do in the Goblin Camp there are like quests but aren't marked or logged as such, just neat things you can do that give XP or just open up new avenues of egress.
I am about 30 hours deep in this game, and somehow missed the fact that you can change prepared spells in between combat. I thought I had to do it when I rested, like actual D&D. Thank you for new info!
Wolfheart, you've probably figured this out by now, but on the Examine - resistance display, if there's a red arrow pointing down over the icon it means a negative resistance. So even though bludgeoning reads like it's a bug, it's just general text that gets modified by what the arrow above it is doing. Arrow down, low resistance. Arrow up, high resistance. No arrow present, immunity. I feel Larian did this to save on text glut.
I am a bit disappointed you didn't do Dark Urge (which is fine, you do you). It adds so much, fighting against the urge makes for an interesting time with a whole added quest and HUGE amounts of interaction. On top of that it's very... Baldur's Gate, like following on to the story from 1 and 2 in a way, it's really astounding.
The hardest part in all this, will be trying to accept bad rolls/negative outcomes to certain scenarios, without trying to do it all prefectly. I really want to embrace the roleplay, first time around lol
I always thought it curious that Shadowheart would relinquish the artifact given its importance and given her personality. I had always felt that SH should have held onto it until her trust in you was exceptional. It makes sense thematically, though gameplay wise. I see why Larian did it as they chose.
I'm loving this game in a way I did not think possible. They really went above and beyond...and I am so glad I resisted for 3 years, refusing to play the EA. This is GOTY material
I’ve done all of act 1 wolf. But being as I’m working nights and I need something to watch I’ve ran through all of your act 1 and learnt so much from your play through. I feel like I need to start again and replay it with the knowledge I have now 😂. (I’m new to d&d btw)
Interesting fact about soul coins in the books they are described as being a foot wide and an inch thick weighing 5 lbs. And the feature they did not add into the game at least at the point of this video's, location and where I have played. They have 3 charges you can use to ask the soul in the coin a question. After all 3 charges are used the coin is then destroyed. Also, you can only hold them a number of soil coins equal to your constitution modifier before suffering negative effects if you are anything other than evil, probably good they didn't keep that part though 😂
I'm going to follow you through this play. Its good to watch someone with experience and a different perspective. I like to watch you explore and read lore. Did you find out later that if the party is grouped you can use longstrider and feather fall on all of you if you highlight them all before you cast it.
If this company decided to come out with a DM version Same map, but live pause, (+/-) enemies/type, etc... that would be huge! Just make money off maps and storylines, hmmm? DM voice over is a must
Your voice is soothing bro haha, I love the fantasy genre, adventure games that takes the user to another realm and give players control on how they play the game. Often times these type of games are hard to do a walk through; you make this walk through enjoyable
I’m loving this let’s play! It’s so easy to follow and you’re great at explaining everything. It’s great for someone like me, who is new to rpg and all the lore. Thank you, Wolf!
@@WolfheartFPS I made this assumption based on the red arrow on the icon, it shows down and is marked as red, could be wrong of course, but seems to make sense to me.
I still haven't made it out of act 1, i guess i've gone down way too many rabbit holes in terms of side quests. I was messing around yesterday and suddenly found myself in the underdark which appears to be a massive zone as well. This game is huge.
26:09 - I think if a book seems proper to read (thematic etc) I’d totally be down to have a little story time in the vid :) Or maybe when we go back to camp choose one or two books that seemed cool you got that day and read them next to the campfire :D
I don't know if anyone has said anything to you about the tomb trap problem. Or if you figured it out already, But you don't need a trap disarm kit to open it. If you right click and open it will let you open it without disarming it. I think Larian might have changed it to where you wouldn't accidently click to open it if you had discovered it was trapped. But it can still be opened without untrapping it. Edit: I know this because I ran into the same issue and when I right clicked it I realized there was a there was an open button not realizing it would open and nearly TPKd my party because I didn't know it would open.
Iv just finished ACT 1 and I saw in another video that's it's not impossible but very difficult too please every party member with the choices you make and that some might even leave camp but somehow by the end of ACT 1, everyone wants too bang my character and I somehow pleased everyone without knowing how I did that lmfaoooo hilarious
Regarding book reading: Best approach i've seen was creating a separate book reading episodes. So who found that interesting could find them on one place and who not could easily skip those.
It's so nice to have the option to respec. I wish there was a way to change your appearance as well. Regarding books I think you should read whatever books seem interesting and take the rest to camp or sell them.
This is a pretty cool game in how you can aproach it in different ways. What I'm seeing in your playthough is quite different from what I saw in my own.

Yeah I like that he explains as he goes along. Very very unique
FYI in case you didn't know, after you wake up in camp, you can just click a sleeping roll and it'll port you back to where you left from.

Second and third play through are even more fun imo. I piled up all those corpses in the crypt and lit it on fire right before I hit the button and they all burned as soon as they animated. 😂😂😂
you did this in early access right? I don't think it will work out the same now 😊
Yeah I tried piling them up in my first playthrough that’s co-op with one of my best friends, they awake immediately when you throw them

So even though bludgeoning reads like it's a bug, it's just general text that gets modified by what the arrow above it is doing. Arrow down, low resistance. Arrow up, high resistance. No arrow present, immunity. I feel Larian did this to save on text glut.
I am a bit disappointed you didn't do Dark Urge (which is fine, you do you). It adds so much, fighting against the urge makes for an interesting time with a whole added quest and HUGE amounts of interaction. On top of that it's very... Baldur's Gate, like following on to the story from 1 and 2 in a way, it's really astounding.
Dark Urge is risking my channel getting age restricted haha. Otherwise I would have
The hardest part in all this, will be trying to accept bad rolls/negative outcomes to certain scenarios, without trying to do it all prefectly. I really want to embrace the roleplay, first time around lol
I have some crazy rolls coming up in the later episodes. SO INTENSE
I love how the first animal he speaks with is a pissed off squirrel.
I always thought it curious that Shadowheart would relinquish the artifact given its importance and given her personality. I had always felt that SH should have held onto it until her trust in you was exceptional. It makes sense thematically, though gameplay wise. I see why Larian did it as they chose.
The Withers voice actor always reminds me of Max von Sydow.
I love the clickity-clackity of Withers running around
Petition to change it to dank crypts and goblins
Watching late: Today we get to see Wolf intimidated by a squirrel :D
😆
here to support my bro
This is the way
The squirrel reaction had me rolling!
I'm loving this game in a way I did not think possible. They really went above and beyond...and I am so glad I resisted for 3 years, refusing to play the EA. This is GOTY material
Looks like BG, Witcher and XCOM had a baby. Interesting
I’ve done all of act 1 wolf. But being as I’m working nights and I need something to watch I’ve ran through all of your act 1 and learnt so much from your play through. I feel like I need to start again and replay it with the knowledge I have now 😂. (I’m new to d&d btw)
“I’m not a professional by any stretch” -a literal professional
Interesting fact about soul coins in the books they are described as being a foot wide and an inch thick weighing 5 lbs. And the feature they did not add into the game at least at the point of this video's, location and where I have played. They have 3 charges you can use to ask the soul in the coin a question. After all 3 charges are used the coin is then destroyed. Also, you can only hold them a number of soil coins equal to your constitution modifier before suffering negative effects if you are anything other than evil, probably good they didn't keep that part though 😂
I'm going to follow you through this play. Its good to watch someone with experience and a different perspective. I like to watch you explore and read lore. Did you find out later that if the party is grouped you can use longstrider and feather fall on all of you if you highlight them all before you cast it.
Appreciate that
If this company decided to come out with a DM version
Same map, but live pause, (+/-) enemies/type, etc... that would be huge!
Just make money off maps and storylines, hmmm?
DM voice over is a must
Your voice is soothing bro haha, I love the fantasy genre, adventure games that takes the user to another realm and give players control on how they play the game. Often times these type of games are hard to do a walk through; you make this walk through enjoyable
Thanks for the feedback! Happy new years
I like that you made Wolf a pragmatist instead of forcing yourself to pick all of the ‘right’ answers.
I’m loving this let’s play! It’s so easy to follow and you’re great at explaining everything. It’s great for someone like me, who is new to rpg and all the lore. Thank you, Wolf!
Love to hear it. Thank you
@@WolfheartFPS ♥️
"I make mistakes all the time I'm sure I'll get called out on them" like Astarion being in stealth the entire fight? Lol
it is not a bug, it is a resistance, but a negative value of it > -Bludgeoning resistance instead of +Bludgeoning resistance.
Idk other things in the game are labeled as vulnerabilities. But you could be right.
@@WolfheartFPS I made this assumption based on the red arrow on the icon, it shows down and is marked as red, could be wrong of course, but seems to make sense to me.
when you examined the door you can clearly see green arrows and red arrows on the resistances :) so yeah
I still haven't made it out of act 1, i guess i've gone down way too many rabbit holes in terms of side quests. I was messing around yesterday and suddenly found myself in the underdark which appears to be a massive zone as well. This game is huge.
26:09 - I think if a book seems proper to read (thematic etc) I’d totally be down to have a little story time in the vid :) Or maybe when we go back to camp choose one or two books that seemed cool you got that day and read them next to the campfire :D
I don't know if anyone has said anything to you about the tomb trap problem. Or if you figured it out already, But you don't need a trap disarm kit to open it. If you right click and open it will let you open it without disarming it. I think Larian might have changed it to where you wouldn't accidently click to open it if you had discovered it was trapped. But it can still be opened without untrapping it.
Edit: I know this because I ran into the same issue and when I right clicked it I realized there was a there was an open button not realizing it would open and nearly TPKd my party because I didn't know it would open.
Iv just finished ACT 1 and I saw in another video that's it's not impossible but very difficult too please every party member with the choices you make and that some might even leave camp but somehow by the end of ACT 1, everyone wants too bang my character and I somehow pleased everyone without knowing how I did that lmfaoooo hilarious
I sadly drive a lot and don’t have time to play so I’m living vicariously through you on this journey. Thank you
Appreciate you watching
@@WolfheartFPS I appreciate your clean commentary as well. Makes it safe to watch with my boys.
Trying to hide…. While carrying a massive flaming sword. 😆
The sword doesn't give off in-game light despite it being in fire haha
Regarding book reading: Best approach i've seen was creating a separate book reading episodes. So who found that interesting could find them on one place and who not could easily skip those.
This is my second time visiting your channel but you are already my favorite content creator here
I really appreciate that
I killed Korga, thinking she was a total b****. But I didn't realise it would result in the slaughter of everyone in the camp 🤣
Then i stole their idol and sold it ;)
I didn't play much early access so I suck at the game, but watching these videos has improved my gameplay so much.
It's so nice to have the option to respec. I wish there was a way to change your appearance as well. Regarding books I think you should read whatever books seem interesting and take the rest to camp or sell them.
This is a pretty cool game in how you can aproach it in different ways. What I'm seeing in your playthough is quite different from what I saw in my own.
You didn't relook in the coffin after waking him up haha
Omg! And my character wanted to get personal with the vamp! 😅wow crazy stuff!
