I have heard that there was supposed to be a quest for Minsc in BG2 where Boo got kidnapped and you had to find and rescue him, but that this quest got scrapped due to time constraints (really unfortunate, sounds like it would have been a really fun one). Could you share any details about this...

Oh, I remember alright…

The new Bulwark town has now been released, and it looks great!

I have played a lot of Heroes 3 over the years and to a lesser extent 4 and 5. Heroes 3 is probably the best one they made and I can definitely recommend it, even these days. There is a story and lore to the games, but it is rather unimportant in the grand scheme of the games.

This cracked wall can be broken as an alternate entrance to the Goblin sanctum, but attacking the wall makes a lot of noise and wakes up the nearby drunken goblins. However, if you cast Silence on the wall, it will not wake up the goblins no matter how long it takes to beat the wall down. Just a...

Another episode of hidden containers with interesting loot! In the underdark, on a ledge above the field of Bibberbang mushrooms is a skeleton with a unique ring that grants some skill increases. The easiest way to get to it is to have your best jumper jump along the ledges following the path...

I just had my own thought for using the camp chest, and, if I do say so myself, it is quite inventive. I wish I had thought of it sooner! It happens to every necromancer: "I want to create an undead minion, but I cant find a body to use!" Well, why not collect and store dead bodies in your camp...

Time for another episode of "Hidden containers that contain interesting loot." Today we look at two henge containers. This bird nest can be found on a henge overlooking the druid ritual circle with the idol of Silvanus nearby where you meet Alfira. It contains some random gems or jewelry, The...

I always make sure to drink at least one Elixir of Vigilance for this fight. One of my favorite elixirs, it prevents being surprised and increases initiative quite a bit. Very useful for “cheating” surprise encounters and against high initiative enemies. I usually don’t have enough at this stage...

Don't know much about that stuff personally. I rarely use throwing since the result always seems underwhelming compared to my other available options. This page seems to have a fairly detailed description of the ability. https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Throw

I think there actually is, I recently saw it in the log briefly before the "You're under arrest!" dialog appeared. It said I rolled a critical failure on a slight of hand attempt... I think it may just be misleading if you have an Advantage in Slight of Hand, because the odds of a critical...

If we are going to start by talking about pickpocketing, then I have a few tips that make it easy. First off, it really helps to have an Advantage when picking pockets. It doesn't show that you have an advantage in the pickpocket window, but believe me, it works. Some of the easier ways to get...

Hey, I remember you! Welcome to the Tavern! You may not recognize me under this name, but I am Tresset. It is good to see you again!

Don't play as Dark Urge for your first run. Other than that, not sure what advice I can give that isn't a spoiler really.

Playing BG3 again, and I found something that seems a bit odd... Apparently an ordinary hyena is wiser than most clerics...

Lately I have been playing an amazingly fun game from a series made by an indie developer that was once recommended to me by @Antimatter. While I have only played one other game in the series, City of Abandoned Ships, I am having a lot more fun with this game. The game is called Caribbean...

I could probably whip up something like that easily enough...

Missile damage cannot gib anything. Maybe this dart had some other damage type as a bonus?

One thing I often wonder about the game is what decides who goes first? I notice the NPCs always seem to go first for picking patrons, which gives the human player the advantage I guess (?) by allowing them to adapt to the choices. I also wonder what decides who gets the first turn. I noticed...
