    This is by far the most detailed animation I've ever done. Thanks so much Larian Studios for sponsoring and letting me do whatever I want. It was only supposed to be 4 minutes long but I went overboard. Baldur's Gate 3 is out now, now that I am done working I will play it and you can too!

      That's exactly what I did on the first possible skill check you can get in BG3 when I was playing the game for the first time at my friend's house and I didn't even realise it was the luckiest roll until my friend told me..! 😅 lol
      So naturally she messaged her bf about it and then he messaged her back to tell me "Enjoy that 20 while you can as that'll be the only 20 you'll get for the whole game lol" 😅🥲

      @@F4c2a And here I thought woke means aware of social and political unfairness, but it seems to have lost all meaning now. It's a fantasy RPG based on DnD about ridding yourself of a tadpole implanted into your head by mindcontrolling squid people on a flying tentacle ship, so in my many hours of playing it I've failed to find any tangible connection to any real world political injustice. That is unless woke now means that you can choose to make a trans character and engage in same sex romance.
