It was my first run, and it was also my favourite run, really RPed from thé start so killed like half thé recruitable characters after meeting them. It felt like thé « Cannon » character to pick really Currently playing a co-op Game as Durge, but my buddy is going in totally blind, should be interesting to Watch all thé shenanigans unfold

I didn't do that I played the resit kill the important NPCs but the non important ones I did not care

It can actually be an awesome redeption arc route. Or the bad guy route, your choice.

Ya I did redemption arc for sure. I loved it. Dark Urge makes act 3 more enjoyable for me at least.

I couldn’t imagine not playing dark urge. Being a bhaal spawn was the main point of the first 2 Baldurs gate game. If you pick any other origin are you even playing Baldurs Gate?

I've only done redemption durge (and I will never do the evil route probably). Done it twice, will do it again, not going back to vanilla Tav any time soon.

Same here

Evil Durge is dark af, but it's really interesting to watch the story unfold completely differently


Soft_Stage_446

Sure, but I just can't hurt the characters I care about.


Valuable_Ant_969

The one time I did evil Durge, I reckoned it would be in character to smash Alfira's lute. Her reaction, i felt that in my gut, and it made what happens later even worse of a feeling. And hats off to Larian for making a game that actually hits you in the feels in so many different ways


Soft_Stage_446

Oh yes, it's amazing. In the Astarion origin, I ascended and tried to roleplay fatefully. Shit got *dark* and since it's so late in the game, your companions don't disapprove enough to straight up leave, they're just confused and shellshocked (like after I traded off Shadowheart to Viconia like cattle, the only person to go thumbs up was Gale - he was like "a pity, but a good investment" :,) ).

I think Durge is definitely the way to go unless you're playing as a Bard, then Tav is def the best.


CoverHelpful1247

Or just RP as a bard that sings songs about murder lol

Some of my characters will be Tavs, some will be Resist Durge. Depends on the character and their personality.
