@@rosevalety3408holy peak I am doing my first Resist Durge run rn as a barb and considering how bad my Durge feels and how initially it felt illogical for him to start as a bard I might use this idea so I can finally do a bard run without breaking the story I’ve made
@@rosevalety3408 But dat Medicine side tho. Durge is a conflicted Cleric who's stuck in a vicious cycle of hurting and healing people, dissecting and putting back together and experimenting on them.
I love how the bard communicates only by playing the instruments. Imagine a mute bard that only plays music and everyone understands them like groot or chewbacca
I tried this as a bard that had survived a hanging execution but was left unable to speak and communicated by harmonica. That lasted about 10 minutes before I had to reroll.
@@Nerthos That. Is weirdly accurate lmao it fits haha. I'm team Shadow on that she's cuter, but Astarion def is sassier lol. She's just too sappy and wholesome
I saw this animation before I got to the scene where they try to kill each other (…while leaning over each other in their bedrolls, wearing leather pajamas) and this shot was all I could think about.
Being a the Dark Urge whose murdered hundreds and then losing your memory to become a silly little bard is so fucking funny, it's like high school musical where our dad wants us to play sports but all we truly wanted was ✨MUSIC✨
oh my gosh karlach with her tail wagging and astarion kicking his feet as theyre otherwise 'occupied' meanwhile gale standing there politely oifdjpjgifjgopigjgidfg i love this so much. the visual humor is off the charts
Aww. I really enjoyed this, and I wish it had finished out the entire song. The thought of the Dark Urge "looting" the body as he dislocates his jaw to eat the boy like a python would... A man can only dream.
Demigods in that worlds are not fully “humanoids”, durge’s body has strange properties when consuming humanoid flesh. In some scenes, his age makes not sense unless you noticed that he might be “biological” immortal, makes sense because bhaal wants his progeny to die.
@@Jay-if6iw to summarize quickly, during the irl bg3 cast one shot, both Karlach and Astarion rolled ones while trying to search some things near Gale. This then led to both of them analyzing Gale’s boots above everything else.
I made my Dark Urge a bard too xD The thought of someone so powerful and with their backstory... Being a bard. Like it's not a bad class it just cracks me up thinking about
I mean it can work, my Durge is default bard and my though has been mingling in high society to pick targets and kiling with grace ( plus the whole contrast between the 2 lives they live brings spice )
Well you have to get your murder targets alone somehow. The o'll wink, flutter of the eyelashes and charm person is a pretty good way to do it. Plus it makes you better with weapons than a sorcerer which is important for improving ones visceral painting skills and lets you gain expertise in said visceral painting performance and stealth. I assure you bards make for excellent serial killers
This is one of the best versions of animatics for this song. 0:30 Also, thank you for this lol Only person I've seen acknowledge the flute sound for that verse lol
this is so well done! gotta love the tiny details put into it: minthara with the dazed stars, the cloaked figures being the big three baddies, the enemy sight lines, and many more haha
I just noticed two absolutely hilarious details 0:48 is a reference to the cast playing dnd when both Astarion and I believe karlach get ‘distracted’ by Gale’s mesmerising boots because they rolled bad numbers and in 0:44 it’s basically just Orion, kethoric and gortash in disguise lol
I love how the robed figures are the 3 villains. The short one has Orin's dagger, one's hand has Gortash's netherstone and the last is bearded like Ketheric Thorm. Love the detail!
DUrge doesn't need to be a sorcerer, for he always knows the forbidden magic no matter what he is. B a R r e l M a N c Y (Criminally underrated animation well done)
I've watched this a few times and feel like every single time I notice more incredible, hilarious details. First time tearing away from DUrge's beautiful solo to properly recognize the Dead Three Chosen!!!! Absolutely rolling at that little interaction back there
I love this damn song so much and I can't believe how wonderfully the artist adapted it to fit BG3! And the little extra flute playing animations when they just match the background song issuch a funny detail. 11/10, would loot that body.
I love how it took me my 4th time watching this to notice the hooded figures after the perception check pull out Orin's knife, Gortash's hand shoves her, and Ketheric's beard falls out lmfao
I only noticed this like today but my new favorite part of this whole animatic is the way Durge looks over at Astarion's low score, Astarion realizes he's holding the sign upside down, and then when he turns it around, Durge just gets the happiest look on their face it's the BEST 0:36
Really captures the feel of accidentally stumbling back into story with an inventory full of rocks and no spell slots to your name beyond "here to cause problems for fun" 😂
It is criminal that you have made something with such a compelling art style, attention to detail, and humor but this is the only animation on your entire channel I cannot stop watching this, help me.
I love this for many reasons but almost every single one of them is the fact i'm playing a Dragonborn Bard RN and this literally just feels like the shit my current team get up to and I love the song and the animation is so cute! AMAZING!! Thank you for making this!!
I'm kinda curious as to why BG3 in particular seems to be doing well with South Koreans, like I already knew that some import games were doing relatively well, But some folks seem to love BG3 over there. kinda cool; I like it when people like things
The game is insane in what it allows you to do in combat. I'm on hardcore making pill box bunkers out of sturdy chests/ using them to strategically block door ways. I put bodies in bags send them to the universal chest. Use them for when necromancers need bodies for spells.(Instead of trying to back track/hunt them down.) Monk/barbarian/Druid build being devastating in combat. Instead of just meme worthy.
Turn on subtitles, people! it's good!
DOOT
The subtitles are killin' it!
this was an amazing choice
If there's an VIP suite in heaven, its all yours!
I thank you good sir or madam, it was in deed good.
I love Durge being a silly goofy lizard guy. Dragonborns are so cool.
Dragonborn with energy of 3 kobolds in a trenchcoat~
Same. I can't get over how adorable those expressions are. New headcanon Durge.
@@Valavaern kobold thats actually a really really short dragonborn

I love how he gets more detailed whenever he rolls a nat 20
He’s locked in

*neuron activation*
The Urges are calling >:)
YOOOO THAT'S A BRILLIANT MOMENT! HAHAHA.
This Dark Urge is far too cute. It has the silliness of a puppy with the murderous intent of a kitten. What's not to love?
that's....a perfect description
And this is why Durge was Bhaal's chosen! Bhaal loves his cutesy murderbabies
Well there's the whole serial killer thing
He's like a bearded dragon. No thoughts behind those eyes
He has a past in necrophillia and squeezing babies to death.
Durge: the moment i stop playing music, the voices get loud
Sounds like a natural born Bard😂
they just like me fr
Cries in adhd
I can’t turn the voices (my thinking) off.
Turns out Daddy Bhaal actually loves music.... or maybe the music is so loud it drowns out his whispers.
@@snazzyjovialwyrm3314 "Daddy bhaal, why does Lady Shar call you Babygirl"
I love the visual humour in this. Also the idea that the Durge is ALWAYS a murderer it's just that Sorcerer is serious and Bard is goofy.
Headcanon is that Durge is warlock at first then re-specks into Bard after the whole... Alfira situation. Redemption or not >:) I like a little irony
I always like imagining their bardic skills as doing the whole horny bard bit except they use their charisma and charm magic as a way to lure targets into spending time with them alone

The callback to the cast playing D&D and Astarion being distracted by Gale's boots is brilliant!

_Deceptively_ cute critter.

The blank stare while holding the flute in his mouth is so good. I gotta do a Durge playthrough sometime.
Best playthroughs you’ll have in bg3 are durge, whether it’s full out bhaalspawn, repentant amnesiac, or anything in between
I love that gortash is holding back Orin being like: “Ayo let him cook.”
i love how durge looks so happy as a bard
All of his murderous rage fuels his music
I loved this
But I'm so sad that we missed the rest of the song with Durge just mocking Orin relentlessly.
It fits thematically, too
What is the song from? I‘ve never played DnD before.
@@duskyroc6417 it's a song by Tom Cardy

I love the minute the cursor went to Bard, Durge just turned into the silliest lad
Minthara with the dizzy effect from being knocked out before being recruited is perfection
I love the little DOOT that Durge does when he gets his flute! The best Durge is just goofy lizard Durge 😂
Dark urge taking over the world being completely derailed and reversed all cause Orin gave him brain damage is hilarious.
He should’ve returned the favor with vicious mockery, but the video was cut short 😢
That explosion at the end.
I recognize that magic…
*_Barrelmancy_*
I made my Dark Urge a bard too xD
The thought of someone so powerful and with their backstory... Being a bard. Like it's not a bad class it just cracks me up thinking about

Goofball Durge is something the world needs more of XD
Also, I only just noticed the Shadow'zel moment XD
Durge has big axolotl energy here and i love it
With that horny jail im starting to think "tight crew" isnt referring to how close you are.
Well, it has something to do with closeness alright
I found it y'all. I found the best one.
Also Durge absolutely shredding it on the flute is something I apparently needed.
There are so many unbelievably amazing animations for this song already, but this one?
This one might genuinely take the cake.
Durge holding the flute in their mouth like a dog with a stick when not playing it cracks me up
0:03 JSYK, if you made literally ANY merch with this face on it, I'd probably buy it. It just brings me so much joy.

I love how Orin pulls out her dagger, but Ketheric and Gortash are both like "nah don't interrupt the jams"
Durge becomes so round and friend-shaped when switched to bard. He's perfect
The ending has me rolling, I've watched too many perception check animations and that change is just so unexpected and :chefskiss:
That quality change during the nat 20 had me rolling
This was really cuuuuute! The Durge faces, Karlach and Astarion kicking their feet to the rhythm of the song, the flute playing... more please!

OMG I love how you actually draw the actress who is the narrator.
I love how Durge is holding the flute in his mouth it’s adorable lol
The cursor slowly drifting towards Attack is exactly my experience teaming up with a durge while I'm trying to just talk my way out of harm 😭
I love that the three cloak figure is the three chosens lol
The face of that 'fuck' at 0:48 is priceless
Durges smile when he gets his flute 😂
God I can’t get over the look up from the flute to the lil doot. I’ve watched the first 4 seconds 20 times now
Its so good

>Makes 2 videos
>Leaves

From dastardly dragonkin to goofy gecko with a single class change.
The way they hold the flute in their mouth xdd this is so good!
This video is like crack, and youtube keeps putting it on the home page every single time
I like how when he switches from sorcerer to bard, he goes from
Demonic hellbeast that will eat your eyes like grapes D:<

I've watched this so many times. Bard Durge is now my icon on discord.
Every frame of this is a delight, the visual gags are just.... *chef's kiss*
O:47 the boots reference to their dnd compain is incredible
Can we just, for a moment, talk about how happy this silly guy was to receive a flute?
This was done so well it's unbelievable.

Same, my favorite detail I noticed on my third watch was Astarion turning around his sign from a 6 to a 9 lol
I LOVE the goofy lizard. That face is so wonderful
That song kind of slapped, and the idea of a Durge band wandering the world playing the flute to a beat is something I want more of. Hahahah!
I think I’ve watched this nearly 20 times in the last day someone help me
sorry, but we're all on the same boat here
