Finished the game last night, I feel so bittersweet
Post Body

Finished the game last night. I played a Dragonborn Paladin and romanced Wyll. Orpheus became the Mind Flayer and I ended his life like he asked.

I decided to go to Avernus with Karlach, and told Wyll to stay behind. While I have no regrets about saving Karlach's life, I felt so bittersweet during the after party. Seeing all my friends again, feeling so distant from Wyll.

I am genuinely a bit sad the adventure is over. I spent 100 hours with these people, grown to love them. I've seen Astarion grow from a heartless bastard to a good person, I helped Shadowheart decide her own destiny. I helped Gale forgo his God and forge his own path. I'm just thinking about it all now and how I'm going to actually miss them.

I already have a second playthrough planned but idk if it's going to feel the same. I'm actually a bit lost now that I'm done, and I'll be taking a break before going back in.

Anyone else have that bittersweet feeling upon finishing the game?

Finishing my first play through definitely felt bittersweet, it literally consumed me. BUT I basically did a noob play through and missed a lot of stuff and I’m giving myself much more time to explore and really get into every crevice and crèche of this game on my current second play through (which is also as durge so there are a lot of new things happening too and I think it’s even more emotionally loaded)

It also did took me a while to start my second run but hey, it feels like this adventure newer ends :)

I believe BG3 is meant to be played multiple times as you like plan different backstories for your tavs and so on, but I feel like the first play through still holds a special place in the heart :,)
