Today's game is some more Baldurs Gate 3. I ended up going to recruit Karlach while the other players handled some shopping. I was going to go handle her whole quest but the enemies one shot me, so that's a no go right now.

I ended up robbing the basement out of spite and made out with 200 gold. I just smashed down all the doors. I accidentally set off the poison trap though and had to jump out.

After that i went and met up with the rest of the party who were fighting the Gnolls (we lost). We got our assess absolutely handed too us by the last guy. Surprisingly i held my own pretty well while hitting him with my Great Axe. I got him down to 20 hp and then died. One of our guys was falling asleep on call so we all got off to save the rest of the game to play with them. I did explore around with photo mode a bit by myself.

I took a portrait of Nyla (my Tiefling character for those who missed that last time) while messing with it which i like how it turned out. The reflections in this game really stand out.

On the subject of the games quality. I took a look at her tail, and they really went above and beyond on it. You can see the skin folds and wrinkles, and in some place even see veins, it's a really good attention to detail i wasn't expecting.

I also took a peak down Wyll's pants, and i mean that literally. I noticed i could see through while looking at his face and looked down, and there's nothing down there. It must be terrifying to have a void where your lower body should be.

Astarion has some bite marks on his neck. I wouldn't be surprised if everyone else already knew this though. I'm just now finding this out though and thought it'd be cool to share even though i never use Astarion.

I also took a look at the eye reflections. I was wondering whether they changed at all or not. The answer? I think they change? I'm not 100% sure but i think there was a different structure in the reflection of one character's eye as opposed to another.

But after that short session i just kind of messed around in the photo mode. The last thing i did was get a portrait of my friend's character because he asked for one, which he asked me to share for today's screenshot. I wasn't sure where to squeeze it in so i guess it gets to be the closer screenshot for today.
