I was romancing Gale. He is a funny guy and we had some fun together, but he is the kind of guy you have to fix, or he will blow up. You know that type of man.
So I broke it off with Gale and I am now trying to land Halsin. He seems more affectionate and more loving that Gale. I think I can get him. I have a beard, men like beards. LOL
The article says Shadowheat is the most romanced. I am not attracted to women, but isn't she in a cult?
Who did everyone romance? I am stuck at work with hump day talk. Weekend is the time I can get back to playing BG3.
I ended up with Astarion. I was en route to romancing Shadowheart, but I got surprisingly few approval moments or interactions with her throughout act 2. At the same time, my character seemed to be taking the shape of "goodie-two-shoes but sassy bitch to those who deserve it", which gave loads of Astarion approval.
I ended up learning into it and I'm super glad I did. There's an Act 2 Dark Urge scene that I felt completely changed the romance dynamic between my character and Astarion - it felt like it put us on a much more even footing, and I was surprised by how sincere and empathetic the scene felt (given that Astarion's main Cope is a mask of flirting and sass).
I had originally wanted to romance Karlach, but there was a bug that prevented her approval from rising and by the time I discovered and fixed it, I had missed loads of Act 1 approval moments
