    I think Tim is definitely the most like his character in real life without trying. Y'know?
    Like, Neil plays Astarion brilliantly, but not-trying-to-be-in-character Neil is a lot further away from Astarion than not-trying-to-be-in-character Tim is from Gale. The bit at 4:20 where he's like "Absolutely jubilant with that" is pure Gale.

    He IS the actual Gale, he really has the same humour and attitude :)
    Altogether, Larian did an incredible job at making one of the best CRPG ever.
    Still apalled by the "it's an anomaly" from other devs - say it's a very hard standard to hold others devs to, all you want, but it inevitably sets the new standards.

      Watch the DnD one shot they did for BG3, if you didn't, he exhales Gale almost effortlessly it's almost as if we were watching him in the VA boot reading actual lines, just fantastic how he speaks with the same intelligent sophisticated manner as Gale.

    From a person who like many others found Gale too "chatty" I came to like Gale when I decided to give him a chance. It's more depth to him and the more you learn the more interesting he becomes. And of course how can anyone hate the way he speaks back to Astarion 😂
    Favourite voiceline is with Astarion and Gale talking about Tav :
    Astarion: So, how was your night with Gale? Did you have a long, hard debate?
    Gale: Ignore him. Astarion envies the depth of our bond because he's of a shallower inclination.
    Astarion: Snort.

    When Tim Downie talks about the quiet ending for Gale and getting the holidays, it reminds me of when I had to choose between taking control of the Absolute or not: "Controlling the Absolute is a full-time job, no more holidays and exploring the world" 🤣

    “I’d like to see them get some air time” in reference the death sounds….. oh Tim. Gale’s death sounds have made quite a bit of air time. He’s cursed not only to eat magical items, but also to drink an abundance of healing potions.

      Oh you should, he is a delight as a companion. Very supportive if you do a good run, sticks with you if you do an evil run, funny, witty, and with really great companion observations, and if you decide to romance him, it's adorable. It is funny how people were turned away by his early gameplay bug, and now that he's fixed he's seen as a slow burn romance option that can be a challenge to crack.

    The best Gale line is just the simple response in camp when he agrees to replace someone in the party and just say "Magical."

    Now keep in mind, he probably recorded a lot of different lines for each scene, so he may not remember which lines were kept in and used in the final product as sometimes lines are cut entirely, depending on which ones ended up sounding better, like the writers felt a need to revise.

      To give more context to what he means because he's discussed this. He first did it with an Italian accent, while at home inside a closet during covid while it was hot outside, and it took him ages because the list is massive. Then when he handed it in, they told him he had to do it again, this time without the accent. Which he obviously did, but that is why it sticks out in his mind.
