Yes, but I was under the entirely reasonable expectation that I would indeed get my niche thing (that being three or four lines of dialog), given the game’s overall setup, mechanics, advertising and franchise. It wasn’t just not included, it was actively averted as hard as possible.

Would you not be disappointed in the same circumstances?

Boy he literally murdered his closest, oldest, and most well-intentioned friend in cold blood, threw the body in a dungeon, and let their soul find no rest for several centuries.

But am I wrong? Making an unreasonable complaint?

I know that most people don’t like dragons as much as I do, but… is it really that weird to want them not to get screwed to the Nth degree?

Yes, exactly! There’s nothing wrong with a tragic hero, but when every hero is not just tragic but tragic to a degree that I doubt most writers would even be willing to inflict upon human characters, then it’s clear that something else is needed to bring balance and freshness.

If this becoming a copypasta is what it takes to get me some dragons who have happy endings, then Holy my Hell.

Thank you kindly. But I know that it’s just not a realistic expectation.

I feel you. I REALLY feel you. I’d say more to commiserate, but everything I’ve got to say on the matter is already up there, and while I’m upset, I don’t want to rant everyone else into being frustrated. Best of luck to you finding someone you can save in your games?

I could, but after getting burned so badly in BG3, I’m very much feeling cautious about touching anything else this studio’s made.

Probably the only thing that could convince me to head back and finish the game tbh.

I wish, oh I wish.

Seduction would have been like winning the Euromillions. Extremely nice, but totally unrealistic and I know it. I just wanted a nice chat and some pocket money after trekking all this way.

Better late than never. I’ll certainly not complain.

I’m so glad to hear it, honestly! DnD’s been an absolute favourite hobby of mine and it’s really nice to see it going a bit more mainstream while preserving the things that make it special (the ability to do almost anything you can think of).

(Now to get Pathfinder one of these…)

Dwarf Fortress.
