Let's start with a few reminders about my twelfth playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3: The main protagonist of playthrough 12 is Amaranth. She's a Lolth-sworn Drow Mystic of the Order of the Ascetic, though that won't have much relevance in this blog post. The primary relationship goal of this playthrough was to fully engage with Shadowheart. I…
If you've visited my place in recent years, you'll see that I take a different approach to the concept of dice tower: Over the past five decades, I've accumulated lots of dice. I've got so many that I've used some of the oldest ones as tests for miniatures paints. I used to keep the dice in cloth…
Get ready for another multi-part Baldur's Gate 3 saga, on my 12th playthrough of the game. Once again, I saw scenes and places I'd not seen before. Near the end of my write-up of my 11th playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3, I set my goals for playthrough 12: Use the Adjustable Party Limit mod to include every…
This post is a follow up to An “honest” 66!! It's what I think will be the final post in a series that began with 46! I'm not going to recap those earlier posts. If this post doesn't make sense to you, I suggest you glance at the older ones. Of course, you can do whatever you'd…
I posted this on FB today: This may be the post that gets me banned from FB, even before I leave this Wed. Big Reveal: I haven't seen a FB ad in years. How to do this: Use Firefox with FB Container FB Purity Ghostery uBlock Origin ... plus this lets me see my Feed in chronological…
This is a follow-up post to my last one, 67!!, in which I describe a potentially dubious approach I took to rolling a 67 on an Ability Check in Baldur's Gate 3. I strongly suggest you read that post before reading this one; otherwise my following remarks may not make sense. I got a roll of 66…
If you've been following along these "die roll" posts, you may be confused. If you've haven't been following these posts, I strongly advise you to start with 46! and read them in order. That will put this post in context. What's the confusion? Clearly I've rolled a 67 in an Ability Check in Baldur's Gate 3: There…
This is a follow-up to my earlier post on a non-study I did on FB. I call it a "non-study" because it wasn't scientific; there were many potential sources of bias that I did not account for. I still haven't accounted for most of them. Still, I think the result is interesting. A week ago, I posted…
At this point, I think one of these applies to you: You've been following the series of posts that began with 46! and you're thinking, "Yeah, more of the same." You've come directly to this post, probably due to one of my social-media links. Or perhaps you're looking through the posts in the order they're listed in…
