      Can't play until tomorrow night and I can't decide if I should risk a Durge playthrough. I don't have time to replay the game so every minute counts

        Then yes, it gives you more interactions than a normal custom character but doesn't force you to do evil

        nope dont even bother, its made just as a second playtrough because you kill people left and right with no control over it.
        You're better off just playing normally and choosing your own decisions. Like i chose no to go dark urge first playtroug and i i still ended up being a murder hobo, but on my dark urge character i was forced to kill someone i didnt want to which sucks.

            You don't get to kill anyone anon stop falling for fricking shills. There's just one single scripted event that happens after you sleep and the npc you kill is a literal who nobody cares about.

            In those 60 hours you're only going to have 4 single dark urge interactions, JUST 4, and 3 of them are WITH ANIMALS.

            Nobody fricking dies and if a mentally ill shill tries to tell you otherwise report them to the FBI for being pedo troony liars.

                It's a bit more than that but as long as you don't kill the one obvious story relevant character whose death has immediate dire consequences the game is basically the same as without playing DU.
                Other than at the end of act 2, where the game suddenly decided that I'm gay for FRICKING GALE even though I never really talked to him or used him in my party. I just ended up killing him. Frick him, his fate was sealed when I had the option to rip off his fricking hand from the portal, and frick this game forcing shit on you even if it might be bugged.

              you kill the origin characters when you meet them if you want, including for only merely 'thinking' about doing it

                No you don't, you didn't even play the game you sad pathetic miserable freak. The only companion with a unique Dark Urge interaction is Gale, and you ONLY kill him if you click "think about chopping his hand of". All the other dialogue options just follow the introduction like it does for Tav.

                Not a single one of the other companions have a special Dark Urge interaction, not one. So you saying "you kill origin characters tee hee" is a huge lie when ONLY Gale has it.

                You're a sad miserable pathetic shill who didn't even play the game, you just saw someone posting the Panel from Hell scene of Gale's hand and now you go around lying despite the game being out for like 2 weeks. have a nice day ALREADY.

                It only happens if you don't kill Isobel and I already stated it's part of the personal quest.

                Dark Urge changes next to nothing. Larian lied. You don't have "less content" or anything like that, you don't have to "resist" urges until a personal quest in Act 2 and only if you refuse to do your personal quest to begin with.

                Just play Dark urge and enjoy the miserable 30 extra minutes it adds and enjoy having the other 60 hours of story never acknowledge you have a dark urge.

                Let alone if you fail the check it's just game over so you have to keep reloading over and over until you succeed since killing your lover means the whole party turns against you and they WILL kill you.

      The game doesn't have as much depth as you believe it does. Dark Urge has 4 unique interactions, that's it.

    The durge playthrough feels like a complete version of the Tav playthrough where your character actually feels like a part of the story and not just a peripheral observer. I was genuinely annoyed that I didn't start with durge because tav genuinely feels like a waste of time by comparison

      Nah, you just feel like yet another mary sue in a cast of special snowflakes. The protagonist already has A LOT going on by virtue alone of having a tadpole in his head. being leader of the party, chosen of the emperor, etc etc.

      Adding being Bhaalspawn to it is overkill.
      > No no but you see I need to be a super strong empowered 15 year old tiefling girl sorcerer/wizard/cleric/warlock who was gangraped by orcs and has leukemia and uhh a tadpole and uhh i lead the party and uhh i am a bhaalspawn and uhhh one of the main villains is literally my sister and a god is my father!!!!

      Presumably you'll immediately break your oath.

      it depends on what your oath is, but vengeance is basically free and near-impossible to break even as a durge
      you could also just be an oathbreaker though

    • 9 months ago
      Anonymous

      My vengeance oath didn't get broken from killing Dark Urge related NPCs. The only thing that really breaks it is killing 100% innocent NPCs, like some random frick in the first act "town" or the dog in your camp. Though it did break from freeing that goblin in act 1, lmao. Or doing obviously evil shit like making a deal with Ethel. But honestly, Oathbreaker seems like a better deal than Vengeance anyway.

    >LOL hey, so I've been playing Baldur's Ga-

    SHUT UP. Just shut. The frick. Up. Holy FRICK this is a board of brainwashed NPCs. Never in my life have I seen such a transparent astroturfing attempt. You think you're special or unique? You're a fricking sheep.

    FACT: The general populace are morons. There has literally never been anything that has been popular on a widespread scale that has been of genuine quality. Why do you think gatekeeping exists? If people had taste and didn't ruin franchises with their preferences, there'd be no GATE TO KEEP.

    Have some respect for yourselves! You're no better than normies and their FOMO; "oh, my feed is full of this game, better play it so I can be part of the newest trend!" You vapid, vapid c**ts.

    Everywhere I turn it's Shitdur's Gate this, Baldumb's Gay that. Who even the frick is Baldur anyway? Nobody gave a crap the first two times his gate opened. I feel like this is a gigantic psyop.

    It's like the shitty Barbie movie which nobody was actually interested in but a combination of pandering and social media saturation created a social obligation to go and see it. I still haven't actually spoken to anyone in real life who's seen it, and I expect this game will be the same.

    So stop fricking posting about it. 10-20 threads on every sodding platform I use. Evidently purchased.

    Shall I be playing? I think not. I'll be sticking to my backlog of actual good games, thanks (I.e. things I've cultivated an interest for myself and not things the internet has told me to like.)

    Grow a spine, you gormless twats. Just say no.
