DO YOU WANT TO HANG OUT AND PLAY BG3?​ sooo, i've been wanting to play this game for ages now, and i did start it—once—only to never play it again. and i am sure a lot of you have played through it several times already, which is great! but. . . i am pretty sure that there are people out there who are like me, who want to play it, but don't really know what the fuck to do. but everyone is welcome to join this  cozy hangout  ! so, whether you're an experienced player or a complete newbie (like me)—i want you to come hang out and play bg3 with me (and others, hopefully)! now, i know there is a multiplayer feature, but that's not what i want to do. i just want us to start a new game on our devices and play it at the same time, maybe share our screens so we can see each other's progress and choices!! that's not a must tho, but i'll be sharing my screen so you can watch. ps. if you don't have bg3 (or don't feel like playing it), you're free to join us anyway to  hang out and have a good time  ! it will be on discord. ​

at the moment, i just wanna find out if anyone would be interested in something like this. i promise it'll be cozy and chill!!

the hangouts will probably happen 1 - 2 times a month and alternate between weekdays, weekends, and early / late in the day (depending on timezone)
and probably last between 2 - 4 hours. people can, of course, come and go as they please! and you don't have to play; you can just watch! but the idea is
that we all start fresh and then follow along on each other's journey. someone might be slower than others, but that doesn't matter!!​

Possibly. I got to the very end, but never beat the game. I guess it wouldn't matter if everyone were in different spots of the game?

i would prefer if we all started a new playthrough, so we could follow each other's progress, but i know for a fact that i am slow as fuck and will probably need a lot of help/directions, so chances are we'll end up in different places pretty fast anyways, so i guess it doesn't matter that much, no.

Depending on timeslot, I'd be interested, as I've been wanting to do a Durge playthrough!

 

[Pontiff]

I might be interested in this. I need to start another playthrough after all the updates the game has had, haven't touched it since completing my Honor run over a year ago.

 

[Dr Bellwright]

I mean, I guess I casted my vote in a different place, but will double it here Yes. Yes. Yes

@Koura @reverie.
We can start at existing save file, but I would suggest we start a new game. It's going to be hard to understand anyone's decisions.

i don't expect everyone to be able to attend ALL hangouts!! which is why it'll be alternating between... well, all times! i am based in EU, so it'll probably be mostly during my evening, which is US noon-ish, or around my midnight or after, which is US late afternoon/early evening.

then it's about time you touch it again!

good!!! and yes, it would be nice if we all started freshhhh. even if everyone might not join every hangout, most of us will have some idea where they are or have been in the game.

 

[Koura]

Oh, I would start a new game, and I agree on everyone starting a new one, but I expect that people would progress at very different speeds. Especially if someone had to skip a day.

which is totally fine! we'll follow along regardless!

I do tend to crunch through BG3 at a steady clip, but I also wouldn't mind chatting about it since I love the game so much. If nothing else I would sincerely find it interesting to talk to others and see how they enjoy the game.

i would definitely need some.... guidance, lol. so if you end up watching instead of playing, your presence and expertise would still be greatly appreciated!

 

[Nazgul]

Just to clarify as I am getting some mixed signals from the replies; the idea is we all play separately but together, right? We're not using the multiplayer game mode but we're advancing through the game at our own pace while we're in a VC? Just wanna make sure I'm getting this right because I found the actual multiplayer mode to be hellish haha.

 

[reverie.]

the idea is we all play separately but together, right?

yes, 100% correct. everyone will play solo. but we'll 'play together' on discord!! some of us will share our screens so the others can see what progress we're making, but that's not required. some will go through it fast, some (me, i guess) will be slower!

 

[reverie.]

​ all right, let's try to figure out a time for our first hangout!! i'm thinking this will be when we'll create our characters (i don't know with you guys, but i need a lot of time to make mine pretty, ehehh) and play through the tutorial. i'll wrap up the hangout after 3+ hours, but you're all free to play longer even tho the hangout has ended! the goal is for us to have a good time!! ♥ i have created a poll at the top, so pls check off which time works (best) for you! i know some might struggle with both, but that's just the way it's gonna be when we're all living in different time zones, unfortunately! ​ you're free to come and go as you please for as long as we're in the discord voice chat! there is no requirement to talk or stream your screen. if you just want to watch us play and perhaps write in the chat, that's completely fine! what's important is that you have a good time ~ and i can almost guarantee it'll be cozy and chill! and, let me just make this crystal clear, once and for all : everyone will play solo. vote for which time works best for you!! wednesday 13th 3 pm EST ( 9 pm CET ) // saturday 16th 6 pm EST ( 12 pm / midnight CET ) ​

right?? everyone is welcome to hang out with us! you don't have to play or even own the game. you can just chill and watch others play. it'll be lots of fun!

I have the game and I got about two plays in before life lifed and I haven't touched it since so I would need to start over anyways. I think I will be reinstalling tonight.

My goal will be to have a bad time. Purely horribly bad.

that’s not possible as long as i’m there, sorry!!

 

[Father Figure]

that’s not possible as long as i’m there, sorry!!

Whatevers, I do what I want. I'm going to make the most sexy useless bard character, download the mod that lets you romance everyone, and the mod that lets you have no party limit, and just talk about my harem rolling around and kicking ass.

if you think you can make your characters look better than mine, you have to think again. but you’re free to try tho!! i’ll be looking forward to see them nonetheless. and everyone else’s
pretty sure it’ll take a while to create my character, since i don’t know shit about anything but i am sure someone is willing to help! someone who actually wants to have a good time!!

 

[reverie.]

i am so sorry guys, but i had to reset the poll because it was impossible for me to know who to reach out to when i didn’t know who voted what so can you please vote again?

@Koura @Nazgul @Father Figure @Pontiff @Dr Bellwright @Lost

if neither hangout works for you this time, i apologize. you don’t have to answer the poll then. same goes for those who don’t want to attend but if you’re able to stop by during the 3+ hours we’ll be there (even if it’s close to the end), check off the box that works best for you.

for those of you who wants to hang out but don’t wanna play, you can also check off the box that works best for you! i promise you’ll all have a good time whether you’re playing the game or watching!

 

[Koura]

Are you going to do both, either way, or only the one that gets more votes?

 

[reverie.]

Are you going to do both, either way, or only the one that gets more votes?

depends on the votes. i can do both, but the original plan was one or the other. but if it’s a clear 50/50 split, i’ll probably do both. it really depends on how many are available both days, or if many only are available one of the days.
