Hey we're actually on the same game at the same time. Not gonna check this for spoilers, as my progress is so slow I'm likely behind. As a non-spoiler itself, I just turned 8!
But yeah fantastic game.
I'm also playing It Takes Two with my fiance, her gift at Christmas, and that is also an incredible game, to my surprise. I expected it to be a sort of low-mid budget game of cheap novelty, but it's actually quite immense and beautiful, and genuinely a lot of fairly acddictive fun for us, if your other half isn't into games, she'd still enjoy it together for sure!
Anyway back to BG3, do you ever feel like you're overplaying it? I have the constant mindset that I have to fulfill everything (which is impossible, since succeeding in one thing fails in another by design), and go everywhere in a single playthrough. It's so hard to just not bother doing something X(
We hit the level cap fairly early in Act 3 (only Level 12) - and we ended up slaughtering our way through so many different things.
This video series is a fair bit behind, we finished the game proper on the 30th of December. I've started a new playthrough on honor mode now and am slowly and cautiously proceeding forward.
Ooo ok so it's still decent after the cap - very liberating to know!
