- Analysis Paralysis was a big part of Baldur's Gate 3 for me when I first started, so I wanted to share my tips on how I broke through that in my video on "How to Stop Analyzing and Start Enjoy Baldur's Gate 3" to help me enjoy BG3 to its fullest!

I can’t name a single other content creator that makes such a deliberate effort to front-load their videos with a synopsis to make it clear to the audience whether it’s worth their time or not. Unparalleled integrity.
lol I’m laughing at the other replies but I agree. Too many RUclipsrs nowadays are just trying to stretch out information as hard as they can to hit benchmarks and whatever. This is becoming my BG channel
Couldn't have said it better myself.
They r correct tho Ive Made the same comment in one if his other guides@@clvrswine
Could NOT agree more. And on a platform that rewards creators tricking you into watching longer, he has no real reason to do this other than pure human decency :).
Actually, it’s because of him that on my music channel, I now give a “if you’re in a rush, skip to this minute to hear the chorus to see if you like the song” intro comment. Never going back!
I can’t tell you how much I needed to hear this. I have probably restarted 20-30 times; never getting further than the Druid grove in an attempt to min/max my play through. THANK YOU!
Here's a tip: I've been using an interactive map with all of the goodies and such turned off, only using it to plan where I'm going, and don't get turned around. I found it super helpful. I mean, having a good map is part of adventuring, right?
I've 70+ hours in the game and I'm still at the druid grove. I've tried to play as a wizard, a sorcerer, a warlock, bard, paladin and then a druid wow man. I'm happy that I saw this video.
Bro fr 😂? I wonder what personality traits make people do this. I spent an hour or two on the character creation, and other than that just took my time exploring.
same here, really dont understand how u can spend so much time in act 1. But well who knows@@jomiguides
I started the game and had no idea wtf I was doing. I'm 10 hours in and already concerned I've messed up my party development. I'm restarting, hopefully it's the only time lol
Just downloaded and never have been a big gamer, just a fat, retired, crotchety old man who played D&D in the mid 70’s a bit and always enjoyed it, and your videos on BD3 make me excited to play, info fatigue/paralysis or not. Thank you for concise and easy to understand advice.
My. Pleasure battle brother!!
Enjoy the game dude
Grumpy Old Men was an inspiration when I was younger, now it's pretty close and hey, we can still have shenanigans :D
As someone who has started and restarted many campaigns,
I appreciate this advice. It’s only recently that I’ve learned to let go and just play my character. I’m 80 hours in and just entered the goblin camp for the first time. Having a blast.
I just got an Xbox series X for krimmus. I sat down and said I was gonna play levels 1-3 of every class before deciding on what to play for my first playthrough. Now I’ve done so, and I have the worst choice paralysis of my life. Hoping this vid will help me chill about it.
@@Rusticrogue17just play any class as you can easily play this game multiple times to experience all the classes
@@Rusticrogue17I’m glad I didn’t get that. I just went Druid and fucking loved it
over 600 hrs in. ive only completed the game once, and never past that camp since
I’m like 175 hours in to my first play through, haven’t beat it yet. I think I’m nearing the end now.
As someone who spends more time watching guides online than actually playing a game, I needed this video. I had so much paralysis in just character creation that it took me 3 hours before I even started playing
This genuinely helped me because I struggle insanely with playing it “the right way”. Great video!
I love that you so strongly advent for embracing the roleplay in this game. Every video, you encourage everybody to quit worrying about min-max perfection, and just embrace the fun. Great to see.
I was like that, i could not decide for stuff in rpgs with too much choice. But then, one day i realized im a simple man, i love dwarfs, i love plate armor and i love giant 2h swords to carve enemies out. So? since them im always plaing a dwarf warrior or the equivalent that is in whatever game im playin. Min maxed? dont care, giant sword goes bonk
Same but half orc. Did the same in skyrim over a decade ago! Cheers!
Thanks for saying all this. Since the game awards, some of the groups and forums and influencers are getting downright toxic about viewing and playing THEIR way.. It's awesome to hear a voice of reason in amongst all the judgemental rhetoric. It's a really special game and it deserves to be enjoyed the way the PLAYER enjoys it. There's no 'one true way' of playing.
Dude that's so generous thank you so much! Yeah man I'm all about playing a D&D game exactly how you want!!
As a forever DM who has probably spent 70 hours in the game’s menus theorycrafting, I really appreciated this video
My pleasure brother! :D
Role playing a dark urge bard who fell in love with laezel who helped him, but then she betrayed the party to support her people instead. My character, with heart broken, had to defeat laezel and is still trying to move on in act 2.
He plays his music in her honor in her old spot in camp.
That's actually an awesome plot point
Lol ok. You probably sat around drinking coffee at camp in red dead 2. This is stupid
@@mpppizzle It's called roleplaying and that's the main thing of this game asshole.
@@mpppizzle People who roleplay are motivated by shit we don't understand I think.
I made a Deep Gnome Bardbarian recently and it’s probably far from the most optimal thing in the world but it genuinely might be the most fun I’ve had so far. It also made me realize how useful Gnome Cunning is, you almost never get affected by Tasha’s Hideous Laughter or Hold Person and it occasionally comes in handy outside of combat.
Everyone plays Warlocks as female tieflings. I made a highelf as an Archfey warlock and had a ton of fun with her. I loved those moments when the narrator went like „You hear a faint giggle…“. I believe the best situation was with Dribbles and my patron basically told me,,that clown is evil …. All in all my characters decisions were chaotic neutral, with a tendency towards good at best. Funny side effect, i saw Astarion approve a lot of her chaotic or just fun decisions. I was like „Wtf Astarion? You weird little ball of chaos?“. I never saw him liking any of my characters as much as this one. So even though I’m not exactly an Astarion romancer, i went with it for once. I let the romance just roll ❤ :D
Sometimes the algorithm recommends me the right channel at the right time. Been binging your videos the past couple of days and I love them all. Defnitely happy I subscribed
On that same thread, I'm pretty sure I've watched every video he's dropped since about August and I quite literally just realized I hadn't been a subscriber the whole time
I love his videos too. I dont miss a single one.
OK, Spaz.
Paladin: Father, help me!
Cleric: Father, help me!
Sorcerer: Dad, help me!
Warlock: Daddy, help me!
Love this relaxed approach playing a game. So many guides out there focus on the absolute best and most effective setup. I now feel a bit more chill about playing bg3 🙌
Just bought the game and a friend linked me your video, so now I'm just relaxing, sipping coffee, and watching this while the game downloads. 10/10 Sunday.
Great for you that you started playing hopefully with the right mentality right away. For me that wasn't the case. I restarted my campaing like 4/5 times before commiting to one and even then I was constantly respeccing hoping for the perfect build. Now I'm doing honour mode where min-maxing is pretty encouraged but right after finishing honour I am doing a more laid back playthrough with roleplay as the priority.
Man....great video! I definitely fell into analysis paralysis on this. Trying to complete 100% everything. I feel the pain of missing the fun... There are so many choices and things to do that its easy to forget to have fun.
Never have I found a youtube video that was genuinely so helpful for me. I have about 30 hours in game and currently am on about a 3 month hiatus and this inspired me to come back. As much as I LOVED the game I always struggled to come back because of many of the reasons addressed in this video.
Loved the honesty throughout keep it up mate
Great video, this is incredibly important. I had problem to start again and again if I didn't like my choices or wanted to start again as someone else. Or even reloading when I failed roll. So now, many months later I just booted it up, made cool character and just go with the flow. No reloads or anything, if it go wrongs I will welcome the chaos.
Thank you. Thank you for being upfront with your ideals consistently and letting your viewer decide to stay. Thank you for being honest. Thank you for being passionate. Thank you for standing out on RUclips as a genuine beacon of knowledge and love. Thank you for helping me with my Baldur’s Gate 3 game. Thank you!
Love your channel! Just started BG3 this past week and it’s good to be reminded that you can let the dice tell the story as much as your character. It’s nice not feeling like having to reload every time something doesn’t go my way in game. Wonderful videos man, keep it up!
Im glad someone in the community pushes for fun over min/Max. Games should be played for fun, not turned into a chore.
There is no community. It's a video game. Not a neighborhood.
@@clvrswineit must suck not having friends 😢
Perfectly-timed video, bud! Thank you. I played Warcraft for way too long and I have min/max locked into my skull and I’ve agonized for days, restarted the game, etc just trying to get it ‘right.’ I needed this
I'm exactly in the same situation, stay strong brother!
I played WoW for years myself. I've caught myself looking up guides and still have a problem with save-scumming. I really need to let that go It's really starting to aggrivate me on my Necromancy based party.
I started watching your content because of BG3 and I have to say you videos are so reassuring. You have definitely helped me relax a bit more while playing, I really appreciate that. Your approach to content is unlike most other RUclipsrs I follow and I love it.
thanks for this! i'm having a lot of trouble having fun in bg3 bc of min-max taking so long, and starting to take things more casually has been great
this is something ive personally struggled with a lot but i think its important to remember that bg3 is NOT a competitive game; you don't need to do things as best as possible, and it's meant to be a game thats replayed, so don't worry about having to commit to something!
This video was a perfect wake up call for me personally. I had started about 10 play throughs and ended them prematurely seeing all the cool things other characters got access too and ended up switching to that certain class or build, and starting the cycle all over again. Coincidentally, I also do this a lot in 5e DND and it makes my friends really upset about how I wish to change characters mid campaign. Thank you so much for making this video and allowing me to step back a second and realize that fun should be the most important part of a GAME rather than mid-maxing and analyzing the best routes or angles.
Side Note: really enjoying watching your Honor mode run as well :)
My take away is you have to embrace the unpredictability of the nature of this style of game. I was getting frustrated that I would want to force an outcome and would fail a roll… sometimes I reload a save but I’m trying to roll with it and your notes for the next play through
Glad you mentioned concurrent playthroughs. My main Tav almost sickens me with his moral goodness and I’ve been so tempted to be a jerk but it would break the RP I’ve laid out for myself (which is the same reason it’s really hard for me to respec to another class during a save-I feel like it betrays everything my character has done).
one thing I want to mention: while I absolutely agree that creating a backstory help a lot, this should only be done for customes, origin characters have an already established backstory, dark urge very much included
Baldur's Gate 3 is my first CRPG, so while I was overwhelmed with mechanics, I still found it very enjoyable to learn new things. Didn't really have a problem "overanalyzing" stuff lol. Maybe with the story a little bit, especially Illithid Powers bit, but other than that - not much.
I always enjoy hearing your take on BG3. Good pep talk for players who don’t want to obsess over every feat, level, and item slot.
If I am enjoying playing the character, it’s a good character.
Spartacus, I haven’t been subbed long but your videos remind me everytime how much I’ve been missing out! The transparency all throughout, the quick jokes here and there (the shadow heart and hot topic was too damn accurate 😭😭 especially if you’ve seen her Voice actress) you’re just goated man I can’t wait to hear more from you!! I want to support any way I can!
Love it! Great content. I definitely have analysis paralysis when I come to a game like this. Spend a whole play through wondering what I should have done differently, instead of just playing and enjoying the game. Totally given me the inspiration to just enjoy and have no regrets, and role playing with what I’ve got.
Was downloading the game and decided to check out some videos while I wait. This is the first and only one I needed. Thank you ❤
Holy crap thank you so much, I've needed this after starting 40 playthroughs and not getting past act one only any of them bc of fomo. I've finished 1 playthrough seriously and loved every minute of it, then my min/max personality came out and I had to have the most optimized party in existence
Been so focused on build guides I have forgotten to enjoy the game. Starting ANOTHER character and just going to play. Thanks for the great video!
Best BG3 content creator on RUclips! You rock brother keep up the excellent work! Love your integrity and appreciate how up front you are. You have helped this newbie out a lot and I thank you for that.
You speak with such enthusiasm. Love your vibe
Ive been playing for a good three months and ive struggled internally with wanting to start over because i thought i ruined my build, or messed something up because i couldnt win a fight, then feeling bad that i still havent beaten the game yet after all this time. So thanks for the reassurance.
I've made over 100 videos, played for 500+ hours, been playing since launch.... I just beat the game two weeks ago hahahah. Take your time and enjoy brother:)
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the upfront explanation in your videos, nothing worse than watching 20 min of a video only to realize it’s not what your looking for more ppl should do this
You can't imagine how this video was salutary to me. As I start my 2nd campaign, I keep thinking about which build I should use, and which group composition would be optimal, which choice I should make.... the whole thing ruining the experience and keeping me from appreciating a game I loved at first sight. It began feeling like a burden and you just alleviated it. Many thanks ! Greetings from a French viewer
I have been binge watching your videos ever since I decided to purchase the game. This video helped me so much. Brand new to the genre and I caught myself trying to make the "best" character from the start. I found my love for the paladin class and have 10 hours on a great play through. But this video inspired my dark urge play through with a halfling witch RP. THANK YOU!!
This definitely speaks to me, in December I got the game and I’m brand new to D&D style rpgs so my first few runs I was experimenting with all the classes and I was reaching out on RUclips for the best setups etc and honestly I wasn’t having much fun until I finally decided fuck it I’m going to play the way I want to play. I made a barbarian half elf and I’m loving it. I’ve gotten farther along in the campaign I taking my time and no longer caring about doing it the best way or the right way, I just enjoying the game unfolding.
Thank you for this! I admit, I've got a bit tangled up in all the video guides and "best builds" but I'm going to stop sweating it and just enjoy the game. What will be will be. ☺
This is such an underrated video, min maxing even on honor mode will just hinder you, play what you think is fun how you want even on honor mode, think about how much fun you’ll have figuring it out yourself and you end up with a 1 in a lifetime experience
Absolutely the video I needed bud. I have started over several times due to not being sure if my character is right or the outcomes have been best….i could have played the game many times over in the time I have spent. Great video. Great channel.
Analysis paralysis. My man just gave me the words for what I been feeling trying to get into ALOT of different games.
I been in a hell of a slump with gaming, and your take on this may be the kick I need to stream BG 3 finally.
Thank You
Love your video, as it takes everyone into consideration and basically gives permission to just do something and get going. As a D&D player, just having started playing BG3 three weeks ago, I REALLY struggled with it (and still do, especially re dice...). So this is really valuable! Thank you!
I’ve restarted several games due to the feeling that my character isn’t interesting enough or I’m not attached to it. I think the best thing for players to do is play what you want to play rather than think too much about what’s best. If you think it’s cool, do it!
100%!
202 hours in and the furthest I've made it is the start of the under dark. I get so stressed about missing stuff that I'm a chronic restarter. Watching this after my latest stress quit, hoping it helps.
That's ridiculous no offense xD the majority of people complete the game with less time played than that. I don't understand how missing something could lead to a restart. What was your main issue if you don't mind me asking?
You could of completed it two times over and enjoyed yourself rather than 200 hours of dread lol
I really respect your video format. Since I’ve discovered your channel I’ve watched a lot of your vids. Thanks for the awesome content man!
The first actually useful BG3 video I’ve seen, thank you! I’m a relatively new player to D&D, but this is my first dive into a Baldur’s Gate game. I love it, it’s great, but yes - I’m absolutely getting stuck on overthinking what can be amounted to mechanical decisions, which is leading me to forget what the game is actually all about. I’m attempting to get the full value out of my choices and melting my brain trying to figure out who goes back to camp and who sticks around. I spent twenty minutes stressing out about what choices to make when levelling Gale up to a measly level 2. I’ve been treating it like a video game, I should be treating it like D&D!
Amazing video, thank you. Im a new player, just finishing Act 1 and I have serious fomo and keep trying to find everything and get everything perfect. Just have fun. Awesome reminder.
Just play, i did and realized how many (some pretty major) things i missed, and that makes my second playthrough all the more enjoyable
I appreciate your video. Honestly my major kryptonite is I want to play classes that don't specialize in charisma, but can never make it through because I want to pass every persuasion check. This video helped with that I think and im just gonna go for my druid/monk build I've been wanting to play
This is really useful. I only just started my first playthrough this week and i'm extremely overwhelmed. To the point I wasn't sure I was actually enjoying it. But i've dropped the difficulty and i'm playing as a person (mostly) aligned with my own morals and im slowly starting to get it.
Yes! Just go with the flow. Started playing today and realized that there aren't bad decisions. If you think something will be a bad decision, go with it, don't reload the game. BG3 is designed to accommodate everything. I also dropped difficulty so I wouldn't get frustrated, it's how we roll haha
This video is great. The best part of playing a D&D style game is the role playing. I go way back to 2nd ed. pen & paper AD&D: Fiend Folio, Monster Manuals 1 & 2, etc. I can't yet speak to the harder modes, I've only played on balanced so far, but you really can't go wrong with any build; unless you minimize the prime stat. I'm currently running both (2 concurrent play thrus) a Gith Monk and a Drow rogue assassin. I love Drow and rogues. I have re-spec'd Shadowheart and Gale at Withers. You can tailor a lot of the BG3 experience to make it more enjoyable to play. This video plainly lays out how truly easy it is to role play whatever you like and change it if you find you don't like it. Happy BG3 gaming everyone.
Hell yeah brother!!
Thank you for this!! I've been kind of frozen with all the options and all the build suggestions online just make it all the more confusing to me. This was what I needed!! Time for restart number four!!
This has been very helpful. I think I’m at the end of act 1 and I’m paralyzed with fear of “what if I missed….”. I’m just gonna roll with it and start an “evil” run to see the other side. Thanks and I love you BG videos!
Love this video, it's exactly the kind of approach to BG3 I have been lacking here on yt! It's all so technical, and rules and min/max really isn't the big draw of this game, even though it can be a part of it. I feel that a lot of people could learn a lot by focusing on something other than min/max lawyering everything into the ground, every single time. This game poses another challenge, one that is rare in the space of gaming; Can you accept what the game throws at you and roll with it? Taking the good with the bad, in terms of what happens, and even in terms of tactical choices.
I have restarted the game 16 times now because I am the forever dm for my actual dnd group and never get to be a player, this helped me settle on a Tiefling dark urge paladin
Same Durge Tiefling Paladin with oath of vengeance is so fun to play. My problem isn’t really stressing with choices, but the fact that most of the sidequests are so easily missable if you don’t explore every single corner of the map. My biggest stress is accidentally moving onto act 2 before even getting to everything i wanted to do.
As a newer player to bg3, you just blew my whole universe open with possibilities now. I deeply appreciate your video and locked in a sub forever. ❤
Started playing today, and I *SPOILER* got myself arrested in the Goblin Town. What happened next blew me away. I could've easily load a previous save and avoid being imprisoned, but I went 'screw it, if they kill me ill reload'. But no. It happened something way more interesting
I needed to hear this. I wanted to love the game but I just felt overwhelmed every time I loaded it up thinking I was doing things wrong or missing out. But just going for it regardless is the best way
i could not tell you what it is about your voice that's so comforting & engaging at the same time (like, i'm relaxed, but i'm not half asleep? i'm alert and paying attention? i have adhd that's illegal!), but this exact video could've been produced by someone else word for word and it wouldn't be as good because it wouldn't sound like you 😂
I really appreciate you being so forward up front in the video
Really awesome! Something else to note for new players is that it is EXTREMELY easy to change your class once you start the game. I've changed my class around so many times as I've played and have had a blast with it! Most of the time I'm a Bard / Fighter, but randomly I'll want to become a druid or a warlock for a bit so I'll do that. It's really easy to switch around :)
"Just look at him, he looks unhinged" 🤣🤣🤣
*instantly subscribed!!*
Thank you, I have had anxiety about just what I want to be, I bought the game a week ago. I felt so overwhelmed by how incredible the creation is. ❤
Never played D&D ever and never played BG.When I first started I was confused and didn’t know what I was doing. Your videos helped me and now I’m almost done with act 1 😎
Thank you so much for making this video! You really helped me get out of a funk and just get back to playing the game for fun!
I wished this was true. I’m playing, or tried to play without min/max and the game is incredibly difficult. If you don’t use the right tools with the right characters you’ll suffer disadvantages you don’t even get.
I love your approach and the breakdown and thinking is great. While listening to you I really wanted to dig back into it, and all I could think about was how frustrating it was to play and keep getting hammered by… everything.
Cheats and mods? If you are like me and just want to explore the game without the stress.
My favourite mod allows you to bring all 6 companions with you at once which is a little claustrophobic but definitely makes things easier.
I think this is the video I needed to start one "final" playthrough where I won't be second guessing my choices and everything and just play it out. I think everything I needed to hear was said in the video, thank you.
Aw man happy to help!! :)
This is such a good video, I always get caught up in analysing everything rather than enjoying it
Damn you're so right. I just started enjoying the game when I recently gave up optimisation and meta. Just having fun , doing my roleplay and not worrying about numbers
As usual mate GREAT VID, I became a follower since the last time about the red line on how far from position and also watch your other vid. Great work , simple, straight, informative! I suggest to all listener to become a follower of yours. No matter our experience we always learn something good and as usual you deliver on the spot!
Thanks. I had the game for around three months and I never started it because I couldn't decide on a class
Good advice! I finally beat the game after restarting so many times. Now I’m going through a new play through and keep starting over, I keep making the same character as the one I beat the game with 😭
Complete DnD/RPG newbie. I appreciate your content, it’s clear and concise and extremely helpful. This game has been so fun and so frustrating at the same time. The shear volume of choices is overwhelming, especially for my ADD brain. Thanks for the help.
This is the first video that actually makes sense thanks bro ❤
Im just beginning to understand the fun in D&D. When Bg3 was released I immediately got it, but I was so overwhelmed by it that I dropped it soon after. ( bg3 is my first step into D&D ever ) I created like 10 different chars and played the first 2 hours over and over again because I just couldn’t really relate to either the visuals or the class of my char. NOW 5 months later I tried to come back, and your videos helped me a lot this time, I’m now in the late state of Act 1 with my Sorcerer Drow and I really start to enjoy it, tho I must say I still have moments where I feel like „god damnit how would this play out if I was not a Drow or a different class“. Anyways just wanted to thank you for your content❤ you created a new D&D fan in me!
bro I just love listening to you talk about this game
I started playing as a drow necromancer and i really like it but there are so many things that i keep overthinking and analyzing so i needed this video :D
This is the best of your videos for BG3!
Great video! Just started playing and loving it, but def have fomo at times. From this point forward I'm going with my gut! Thanks for this!
Thanks for this! I played through this game as a swords bard. I am 53 years old, and I think this might be my favorite video game of all time. I played D&D back in the '80s, then took a 35 year hiatus and started playing 5e a few years back. I really wanted to play again, but I found this game to be so amazing the first time that I just feel like playing it again is going to taint my feeling about the game. It's weird... my favorite game of all time and I just cannot get myself to play a second time. Maybe in another year or so.
love your style! your channel is so well crafted and im glad to have found it
I definitely need to take this advice because for me I believe in making sure my first moves are key to success, I don’t know enough to make an accurate guess so I never feel like I’m ready.
I really enjoyed this video. I think FOMO has really been hampering my enjoyment of the game. I really need to just roll with this and let the game unfold, but every time I watch content, I get swayed into going down those rabbit holes trying to get those weapons, gear, etc. I appreciate your reminder this is a game and I should maybe let it unfold on its own instead of following others footsteps.
It also helps a ton to not view any media until you have finished the game . Unless you are stuck on a quest than sure look up how to do it, but googling your first build to make your character the best, or which feats are the best is the wrong way to play the first time around IMO, my first playthough I played a simple character (Fighter) as I was really new to D&D, and CRPG's. Had a ton of fun, made a lot of mistakes, but now I can learn more and try new builds. But all in all do what you want.
I needed this, I’ve been planning what to do in my next playthrough for like a week instead of just playing it 😑
Fun first? In 2024? On Earth?! Why have fun when i can be "the best"??. Absurd! And i love it! Your encouragement to return to prioritizing fun in gaming gains you an instant sub from me! Keep up the good work. 🫡
I did a Paladin & Cleric multiclass drow and chose Elistrae to lean in to the roleplay of the character
it was a really fun playtrough even if it wasn’t optimal
Thanks for making a video that is simply about having fun. Really appreciate your content, but this one video is now my favorite.
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
I really love this approach to the game. Thank you for sharing this! It helps me
Great content. Love the suggestions you make for playthroughs.
My biggest issue is that there are a few styles I love, so I try to make a good estimate on how to do that.
One is a caster with a large toolkit. In BG1/2 it would be a dual cleric/mage. With the right buffs it could do well in melee, but with other spells it could offer control or splut.
Yes, it had to re-tool for different areas. But I could tackle anything in any way I felt like, and I enjoyed being able to match the strengths and weaknesses.
Thanks for this video. It really helped me let go the urge to make a ‘strong’ character. But to make a character that is actually fun to play. Such a difference with playing Elden Ring or Diablo 4..
I finished the game in act 2 just doing whatever on my first playthrough, it gave me enough experience to know what I wanted to play in my second playthrough, on my third now and the accumulated experience now means I can end every boss fight turn 1 in honor mode if I wanted too. Went down the analysis rabbit hole the third time and I don't regret doing it this way one bit.
Thank you so much. I’m new to streaming, BG3 and DND, and I’ve had quite a few viewers who have been demanding I change my build/specs, as well have explained (rudely and without my confirmation) to me why mine are inefficient. This helps a lot.
Fuck em. You play how you want. Are you on Twitch? What's your channel I'll come raid this week!
@@italianspartacus right?! Q_Q I was so overwhelmed by the information haha and demands. and omg wait really?! I am, it's evebug_! you are so kind!! 😭😭I'll definitely catch your next stream!
Thank you bro, I needed this video 😭 I am gonna play for fun now, I don't care if wood elves aren't the best wizards. I'm gonna be a wood elf wizard!
Last time i searched for the best class for having fun it was given my a whole list with like: fighter basic bard fun.
Now i have understand that i should play the class that i want to play at the moment and that i think can give me the most fun, not the one that a guy told me to play.
Grazie mille.
Play whatever difficulty you want with whatever character you want to RP as. Game is crazy open to whatever you want to do.
