In my ending Orpheus became illithid and I killed him afterwards to fulfill his request after he crowned Lazael as the revolutionary leader, I sent Laezel back to her people to rescue them atop a red dragon and she promised to immortalize the MC's name in Gith history as the liberator, Karlach almost died but I had Wyll escort her back to hell as he also became the blade of Avernus and he refused to take on the role of Archduke despite his father's request, Astarion became a vampire lord and he stayed with me to rebuild the city (he could become an enemy in the future but for now we are allies). I encouraged Gale to go seek the crown and try to become a god of magic. Jaheira and Minsc were happy that we won and they stayed with us, Shadowheart was my main romance and she was still missing her parents at the end after she had to let them go in order to escape Shar's influence, she and the Mc stayed together. After that the game shows you the city of Baldur's gate getting rebuilt and the MC getting the Balduran's treatment as a savior (I killed him in his Illithid form btw, couldn't trust him after what he did to Ansur). Post credit scene has whom I suspect to be Jergal mocking the dead three and showing his satisfaction at the result of this war between the absolute and mortals. THE END
I did the opposite. Laezel leaves regardless
Damn this ending feels... super abrupt. I expected to have a last chat with the party after finishing. There's also basically no ending for Shadowheart?
Damn I didn't even think about shadowheart.
@@Costcohotdog12 i found a way to fix it, put up a video about it
@@VDA19 I just watched it, thank you for uploading that.
Is there a post credit scene with Gale, or is that it? @@VDA19
I saw one where he asked the PC to marry him@@hinkelstein1494
I like that your appearance reverts to its original look if you are half illithid and kill the brain. It’s a nice touch.
There should be a way to save everyone and give them happy endings if you could get access to either the clone or reincarnate spell. With clone, you make a copy of someone's body and the person's soul transfers to the clone when they die. With reincarnate, you create a new body for a recently deceased person and their soul transfers to it. In either case, the person retains all their knowledge and experience in the new body.
You could hardly write any tragedy in such a universe.
@@nightfears3005there is still the afterlife. If you don't worship any gods, your soul gets sent to the Wall of the Faithless to be dissolved. If you made a deal with a demon or devil, even if you were tricked into it, your soul gets sent to the Abyss or the Hells. If you worship multiple gods and committed some bad crimes, your soul could get sent to the Abyss or the Hells if none of the gods try to claim it. Your soul could be imprisoned by a powerful being like a dragon, lich, or a god to prevent resurrection or passage to the afterlife. Your soul could be obliterated by a powerful enough entity. You can be raised as an undead and have your soul trapped in the undead body.
thats just shit boring non dramatic writing. lets be grateful that you are not a writer
I wish we got more out of Astarion in the end, especially since him being unascended is the good end for him. It makes me sad that we only see him run off.
The did Astarion dirty, didn't they? Well, at least when you romance him, you talk to him again, this is awkward after everything you've been through. Others got statues, he got a sewer. Nevermind, you never have to see him again :D Mind you, this is the good ending most players who kept him in their party get to see.
In the Good ending for Astarion when he stay a spawn, he will visit the MC at night and one outcome is that the MC and Astarion goes on a journey to find a way for him to walk in the Sun again without becoming Cazador 2.0. The other option for Astarion's Good ending is that he becomes the leader of the surviving spawn of Cazador to teach them how to control their vampire desires and become a forces of good, Astarion and the MC become a Duo Hero team of the night, and Astarion and MC settle down together.
@@orrthehunterso we can fix him 🥺
@@gerardoalvarado8425this is only if you romance him, no romance means he's fucked
I know but you have to romance him or you most probably get... this, even if you are good friends.
@@orrthehunter The problem I feel is, Astarion's reward for chosing to do the right thing is that... he gets to be with Tav? (As killing Cazador is something the heroes needed to do anyway.) But Astarion's own character quest and the Tav romance are two completely different things. The BG3 writers made the Tav-Astarion romance with highest approval rating the prerequisite for Astarion refusing the Rite of Ascension, and him refusing the Rite the prerequisite for the romance to succeed. Astarion's personal path is so deeply entwined with Tav existing and romancing him, which is not the case with any other companion character. Astarion is also the only character negatively affected by the heroes defeating the Cult of the Absolute and killing the tadpoles.
Throughout the entire campaign we've been assuring him we'd help him find a way to either control the tadpole so he could keep it or find a way for him to walk in the sun… but the game never even gave us the opportunity. So effectively we lied to him to string him along. And after the tadpoles are dead, Astarion is actually worse off than he was at the start of Act 1.
What happens if Tav never romanced Astarion in the first place? Or if their relationship never progressed to a point where Astarion genuinely fell in love with Tav and felt safe enough to reveal his broken true self under his masks, instead of merely instinctively trying to seduce and manipulate Tav to gain him as a protector, as Astarion admits to doing at first?
In an Origin character run without Tav (and with none of the other Origin characters tied up in their own private quests really caring about Astarion), where Astarion is thus all alone, the issue becomes even more glaring: Astarion's reward for not ascending is… what? The lovely warm feeling to have kept his own soul pristine and not have sacrificed thousands of insane starved vampires spawn for whom death would've been a mercy? Oh wait, that's the lovely warm feeling of him burning in the sun.
I know some people really want to foist responsibility for Cazador's sins onto Astarion when they say he first needs to work for his "redemption", but it honestly feels wrong to me, as as a vampire spawn Astarion was nothing but a tool, a victim himself, literally unable to disobey direct orders from Cazadors due to mind control, and the story spends a lot of time showing us the acts of torture and humiliation Cazador inflicted on Astarion to break his spirit, even though the worst memories, like "the Year of Hell" of Cazador burying him alive in sensory isolation and starvation, are hidden under dialogue choices where we have to act heartless towards Astarion and probe his mind to even get to unearth them.
all the bullshit we go through and this is the ending ? wow even fucking ME3 had a better ending
but.. I wanted to keep playing in buldars gate with all the ppl :'( Once we save the world its over :'( Imma cry
i got this exact same ending - it really felt optimal :)
This is kinda good ending for Karlach, Zariel put that damn engine in her with the purpose of killing her if she ever escape Avenus. So let her turn herself into a mind flayer is a good thing for Karlach. Being a mindflayer is not necessary a bad thing, we did see a mindflayer having a somewhat normal life in the underdark, helping scholar and killing Drow and Duegar.
He whole thing is wanting to see sunlight and the surface again after a decade in the hells. She has no "good" ending. Either she dies outright, gets sent back to the hells or becomes a mind flayer doomed to the underdark in a world where mindflayers just tried to take over the world, thats a prejudice that will kill her someday. Her best ending is if you go to the hells with her, which kinda sucks for you
@@JKSSubstandard Hmm, what about having her die and then resurrect her? I mean, the engine should not be resurrected with her.
@@niklasdahlgren7641 You need the Wish spell for that, even True Resurrection need a body to work. She turn into ash so there was no body to resurrect. If you become god, or spell caster lv 18+ then you can do that.
@@JKSSubstandard or wyll goes to hell with her
She will lose herself in time. Her soul, her mind. And while she remains sane she has to feast on brains.
It's not a good ending. They cut the real 'good' ending for karlach where she gets to live with a repaired engine.
Such a shame.
I'm not a fan of the ending. Feels very flat. They pretty much Say "You won" and hand you a gold star.
No exposition, no final talk with your companions. nothing.
I guess it really is the journey that mattered. not the destination. But that doesent make this ending feel any less Empty.
I liked the ending where you stab Orpheus in the neck and become the Absolute. You sit on top of your throne and grin about all the stuff you did to get here.
The good ending is kinda ass lol. Especially the Gale Orb ending, he K**s himself, but its so buggy that the game actually thinks Gale is still alive but dead at the same time. Gale talks about retrieving the crown, then Wyll says we should honor Gales sacrifice and build a statue, even though Gale is still alive and standing in the background lmfao.
Oof
I had a different ending. Orpheus was killed earlier and The Emperor was still alive and Karlach and Wyll went to Avernus hunting Zariel. Also Lazel still was loyal to me and I convinced her to stay at my side. Free of Opheus and free of Vlaakith. On top of that I had a personal scene with Shadowheart at the end. I liked my ending more tbh.
Your Tav came straight out of Stormcast Eternals warscroll.
Lol so karlach becomes flayer forever. Now she'll really never touch anyone ever again...unless she wants to feed or trick them for hugs lol.
I think the best ending is where you as a custom character just become the flayer then do what orpheus would have done to himself. Then everyone is happy and Gale is forced to take Karlach back to Avernus.
I honestly wish we had the chance to make her stay when going after Raphael.
I see that saving orpheus was a good ending aswell. I guess I'll leave that for the third playthrough :D
Unless he will lead githyanki on a mission to conquer all Faerun
They're still lawful evil
@@lafayecci5619 I mean yea, but those under vlaakith are just evil, Voss and Oprheus seem actually pretty chill when interacting with them
I honestly wish there was a way to talk the Emperor and orpheus to work together considering how a bit understanding Orpheus is. However, certain past actions from the Vlaakith makes it understandable why the Emperor did not trust Orpheus since he is probably one of the few exceptions.
@@orrthehunter i am playing a good paladin who should i side with orpheus or the emperor i want my tadpole gone and save the day :(?
@@IDontKnowYouWhoAreYou Orpheus in my opinion. That is because there is a side quest that will reveal the Emperor lied to you about who he really is and his reason for wanting to defeat the Brain.
It is revealed when you find the dead body of Ansur that the Emperor is actually Balduran, one of the founders of Baldur's Gate. He did not break free from the brain's control on his own but had help from his friend Ansur. Ansur tried to find a way to reverse his transformation into a Illithid but could not find a way. However, during that time the Emperor actually enjoyed the power he was given as a Illithid. He saw it as something for him to become something "greater". Both sides handled the situation poorly being that Ansur tried to kill the Emperor because he feared he will lose himself as a Illithid and the Emperor did not try to reason with Ansur and instead went right for the kill. In the end the Emperor's true reason for wanting to kill the Brain is to remove what he believes is the only threat to his ascension to a more powerful being. It was never about doing the right thing, it was about removing a threat to his chance at greater power. It is why he refused to be reasoned with if you choose to free Orpheus because Orpheus is a threat to him reaching what he believe to be becoming something greater for himself.
I was expecting a slide show of the fates of every npc you help talk to, like in DOS2. The game is a masterpiece but the ending feels a bit abrupt.
Yeah, so much of act 3 and the finale is a let down after the perfection of acts 1 & 2
@@opethmike Welcome to how any larian game has turned out as: Ok opening act, meh middle, and disappointing end.
@@corporateturtle6005 Fair enough, other than a few hours in DOS2, this was my first Larian title
Time to say goodbye Todd Howard .
Anyone know where i can find the music that starts at 4:50?
I choose to help the emperor because u get to know that he was the founder of the city. Saw him ate orfeos brain.
i want them to fix astarions ending so badly like what is this bs
I guess the absolute's army stops marching to the city?
I wonder how the Heroes of Baldur's Gate ending works in an Origins run where you play as Astarion and refused to do the Rite of Ascension and then presumably start to burn during the scene at the docks? (Yes, I hate that scene.) Do they give you a hero statue under a roof or set the scene at night?
Where are people getting this statue ending? All I got was someone saluting the main statue in the city...no one else got one hah.
I saw a video somewhere where you’re basically in a sewer but happy to be free
I made astarion ascend so he doesn’t do this at the end
is there no way to help asterion beside letting him ascend?
No. There's only the two options: He ascends and goes crazy and becomes Cazador 2.0, or he refuses the Rite and gets metaphorically kicked in the balls by the story because he loses his immunities. Well, you could go for an evil ending where the Absolute wins and the characters keep the controlled tadpoles, I guess, but then they're sort of slaves to the cult? The problem is that Astarion's only "reward" for nobly refusing the Rite is praise from Tav for doing the ethical thing and Astarion begrudgingly admitting he is glad about "not losing myself", and a continued romance with Tav. But what if Tav never romanced him, or their relationship isn't really deep enough that Astarion actually fell in love?
The writers entwined the Tav-Astarion romance and Astarion's personal quest so deeply, unlike with any other companion, that Astarion really has zero reason to refuse the Rite if he isn't in a relationship with anyone who can protect him after he loses the tadpole. Which is kind of sad.
He is free from Cazador, yes, but the heroes would have killed Cazador anyway.
@TF2CrunchyFrog I still prefer his happy ending cause than he says he loves my Tav and loves this and they are together for real. And I'm sure they can work around this living during night:)
@@Idylla3DRenders
Yeah ... no.
Not really.
Thing is now Astarion is a vampire spawn without a true vampire behind him backing him up.
For how depraved and evil Cazador was Astarion was "his property" meaning he was under protection from Cazador.
If something had been done to Astarion without his permission he would punish and if they are lucky kill the perpetrators in retaliation.
Now Astarion hasn't that protection anymore meaning his "usual behavior" is bound to draw the attention of other true vampires.
Remember True Vampires are extremely selfish, arrogant and evil pricks by default.
Meaning in the end Astarion will end up a slave to a different True Vampire or dead while in the meantime while waiting on that he will "live" in fear.
There is no happy ending for Shadowheart, Astarion *OR* Karlach.
One more or less by design, one has a "semi-feelgood ending that is not good when thought about it" and one has her ending cut.
@@JesusKreist well yes, and no
it's dnd
theyre a dnd party
what a dnd party does is keep on adventuring and finding ways to fix problems
a dnd party doesnt really stop adventuring just because one quest is over
they could easily embark on an epic quest to find a wish spell and cure him of vampirism
there are a million ways to fix this
and a dnd party sticks together, so I doubt they just leave him and let vampires hunt him down
in the whole spirit of the game this wouldnt ring true imo
I think assuming that their stories are over now and the future is carved in stone doesnt fit the nature of a dnd game
it is very likely imo that they will go out and try to find ways to fix each others issues
also @@Idylla3DRenders I wouldnt worry too much about the nigh life
if I remember correctly vampire spawns cant be in direct sunlight, but shade during the day is fine
so he can still enjoy the day with some work arounds
That ending was a mess.
is there a way to have karlach not become a mind flayer and still achive the good ending?
there are, one ending has Gale turn himself into a Bomb in Act 3, you become a Mindflayer yourself, and the Emperor is at your side so he take up the tasks required for the Good ending.
if Karlach is your love interest then you can convince her to go to avernus with you, at the very end after you defeat netherbrain
@@cringyjerry4613 And then what appen after the game end? Can you still play as your character or you cant since you go to Avernus?
@@orrthehunter If Gale goes boom, though, the Absolute is dead, sure, but so is everyone else and the game is instantly over.
@@TF2CrunchyFrog you're talking about Gale Act 2 ending. I am talking about Act 3 ending where he turns himself into a bomb resulting in him only killing the Brain while everyone else is safely in Baldur's Gate far away from the blast and he is honored as a hero who sacrificed himself to save the world.
It is one of the possible ways to kill the Brain in the end of Act 3 only if you have Gale in your party before the final boss fight.
So I know that if you romance lae'zel she can stay with you, even so that ending feels really rushed no final speech, just a I'll stay with you.
I didn't know that her staying would be, "meh" when I decided she needed to fight in the war against Vlakith. I sent her away and they made her eyes look so sad... I definitely think her leaving is so much more touching.
It's not good ending if Karlach turned into an Illithid.
What is the name of the music omg please
Lol in my ending astarion burnt and karlach exploded.
man I went to avernus with Karlach, either way this ending is one of the best i've pakyed in a longg fucking time.
Does anyone know the name of that final track?
4:52 someone knows the name of this ost?
is this ending where i dont have the tadpole gone right?
Is the guy at 11:47 supposed to be Wyll but older?
No
I need the ending where tav Support gale to wear the crown 🙈
I chose the in-between option. I asked him what he would do (I had full approval) and he said he had no choice but to be become a god. I said he shouldn't repeat the same mistakes that got him where he was. He told me that he thought he had won my trust but he now understands he was mistaken, he says when he is God I will be his Chosen, and then he leaves with hardly a farewell... my jaw dropped when it happened... in that moment I felt I had to stop him by force but obviously you do not get the chance.
Do I have to free the gith in order to do the good ending
Bummy ending for astarion and karlach.
Orpheus is there, this is NOT the good ending lol
How did u get karlach to evolve do i have to romance her
No I didn't romance her. As far as I can tell you just need to bring her with you to the final battle
What happens if you never free him and side with the emperor
Then The emperor takes Orpheus place during the final battles. and the emperor becomes a tad bit powerhorny. It was his plan all along.
@@bluntlyhonest6803 luckily I have NEVER trusted him, not even when at the start.
@@DarknessAve Neithere did i, i always figured that the guardian was the tadpole playing a trick. I was skeptical at first but when he insisted that i use the parasites i knew i could not trust him.
And when it was revealed that the guardian was the emperor is just went, "I knew it!"
@@bluntlyhonest6803 Thank goodness someone else has said it, because it feels like that a blaring red stop light when he said it. Everyone else is drawing fanart and hentai of this sucker and I'm like, "I have considered him a sworn enemy since the start of the game."
@@DarknessAve Well. This game is overly sexualized. There is a taste for just about anything. be it normal people, aliens, bears 5somes or karlach that sexy beast.
No shortstacks though.
Lol I had the prince become gith. I didn't know a companion can become one.
What happens when you do that? Does he still go to his people or does it become impossible?
you have to kill him or he kills himself@@DarknessAve
Becoming a mind flayer sucks.
It destroys your immortal soul, so no afterlife when you die. And while you live you have to feed on peoples brains to stay alive. Yeah sure ypu get really powerful psionic abillitys but still you lose yourself for it.
@@DarknessAvehe gives the quest to save his people to Lae'zel, (you can convince her to not do that at all, probably dooming the entire Githyanki race) and commits suicide.
Is there anything in particular you need to do to get this ending?
Definitely prefer my Dark Urge / Bhaal ending to this. Lame. You don't even get to dominate and slaughter the world in this one.
So, how do you get this good ending?
Free orpheus and fight alongside him. Dont betray the Illithid champion at the very end.
Where Shadowheart or Wyll?😢
I am still wondering if there will be a good ending where you have both Orpheus and The Empeoror alive.
@@blackdemonknight no I don’t think so
@@albrechtryan7799 That sucks
@@blackdemonknight 🥲
Shadowheart is in the video she's in my party. I never recruited wyll I didn't realise he existed until too late
Had to see the ending on TH-cam since the cutscene was broken when I got in the game. This game is pretty great but it is clearly unfinished. They should have delayed it Imo
There has to be some dlcs. We were left with some cliffhangers. Id like to fight besides laezel and her people.also ghales quest for power or either freedom would be a good dlc.i don't know but the thing about 17000 endings 😑😑.i mean its good bad and dark urge bad. I cant how this defers for a thousand endings
17000 comes very quickly when you start to multiply all the variables together.
Every companion's presence or lack of is a different variation to the end. Add to this if you romance a companion, if companion ls left/died, if you carried out their companion quests, etc.
So whilst there are only a handful of actual story ends, the variations are easily in the thousands.
I can see some nice DLC's
- Avernus Campaign: You start with Karlach in hell and your main character and kicks ass
- Avernus START: You begin the game by crashing into Avernus and need to get OUT first
- The entire SSI gold box RPG's made with the BG3 engine
I just really want more of this game cause it was like an amazing experience as an rpg geek. You really felt like you were in the story
