  • I’m still baffled by it, but a couple of years ago I found a switch in my brain and now I rarely have issues falling asleep anymore. I think the most important thing for me is not to constantly ask myself why I’m failing at such a seemingly simple task, but rather work around my natural instincts and try to support them as best I can.

    If I go to bed early, because I have to get up early, I start spiralling and fall asleep way later, so I try to only go to bed whenever I’m tired. If I end up sleping too little I take one or two 20 minute naps (I try to never exceed 20, it would make me even more tired).

    Another factor is probably how long I sleep. I always assumed I wanted to sleep long, because getting up sucks. But at some point I realised, that my first ‘sorta-awake’ moment is the perfect moment to get up and have energy for the day and get tired at the proper time. This moment comes at around 6 hours for me. I still struggle with this a lot though.











  • Honestly, the number one thing I wished for while playing BG3 was DOS3. BG3 is great and all and the combat is fun, but there are so many things about DND 5e (and especially its combat) that just don’t work well (both in BG3 and tabletop imo).

    But DOS3, where every ability would be designed fresh, without any pre-defined requirements, combined with the amazing engine that they’ve built for BG3? That just sounds soo good imo.

    So yeah, I can’t wait for them to go back to working on something else actually.


  • Finished the game yesterday and I don’t think this will brick everything, although some specific stuff could be easier / bricked / kinda funny. I just hope you got the loot off of them.

    Please let us now, how this plays out.

    spoiler main story

    He’s not a central character to the story, but he has an item that can be change the main story significantly. Afaik there are two ways to get it, the one where you fuck him over should still be possible.

    the character's death according to DnD lore

    Raphael is a devil, so he is not from the material plane, but from the nine hells. In DnD, if you kill a devil in any plane other than the nine hells, they just kinda reappear in their home plane. This mechanic is actually being leveraged by larian for another quest in act 2.

    So if he reappears, technicially it wouldn’t be wrong. However I’m really curious if he’s gonna acknowledge this. The next time I saw him after Wyrms Crossing, he kinda wanted to kill me anyways…
