I just started a fresh run with a friend a couple days ago. I sort of have my DM hat on and am just letting her go around, making her own decisions and mistakes. This is also the first CRPG she's ever played, and she accidentally clicked on Lae'zel when trying to break her out of the tiefling trap. I was amazed they gave Lae'zel a voice line about that in the dialogue!

Playing with someone that has a fresh set of eyes on the game is often making me feel like I'm playing this for the first time again. Highly recommend!

I'm having a blast playing 4 player co-op with some buds! The DM of our DnD campaign moved and hasn't had the chance to set up his computer for our Foundry VTT so this has been a bunch of fun in the meantime.

Am I allowed to downvote your comment because I'm jealous?

I love Foundry so much!

Running a family game later today and then playing in another tonight.

I play in three games and run two. One of the games I play is through roll20 still.

Makes me think we also need a BG3 "looking for player" community -- or at least a pinned thread maybe. Not a problem I'm suffering from as of writing, but I've benefit plenty from "looking for group" subs back on ye old reddit.

Well I'll be your friend! We can be lonely together!

I do a coop campaign at the same time as my solo campaign and my friend did the same. It's awesome how we figured out things together, especially in the temple of Shar. It's also fun to discuss solo campaigns with other people because how it is different even if it's the same game. My most obvious example in that case is what happens with auntie Ethel, as we discussed several minutes about it because of 4 different outcomes in 4 campaigns.

Does it count if I have used multiplayer and starting 4 instances of the game to have a completely custom party right from the start? 🤔
