I thought I would play a straight character in Baldur's Gate 3, but Gale made it hard.

Gale won me over too. I was going to romance Wyll but my god he's just sort of everything I want in a man. Bit more baggage than I'd like but then again I've got my own bag of holdings worth.

I would mention that I'm a straight man. But there's no denying the magic that Gale brings when he's shooting his shot.

And it fits my typical relationships, right down to being into someone who is clearly still stuck on their (impossible to please) ex.

I had to restart my game midway through act 1 due to technical reasons. One thing I found was that my protagonist just felt so flat and two dimensional compared to any tabletop character I've played (which is a limitation of the medium so I don't mind).

My new character is leaning into this.John Baldurgate is a human fighter white guy who is gonna romance Shadowheart and pick the lawful good options everywhere.

I've never set myself such a hard limitation in any game.
