The party: Gale's sacrifice will forever be remembered
Gale: I need that crown
party: It is like we can still hear him
That gives me an idea for next tabletop campaign, when there is a situation where someone will have to sacrifice themself i will try to convince gm behind the scenes to make them somehow survive and others to start gaslighting them by acting like they are dead...

Gale - "Goodbye, Gale."

Ironically would be poetic. A farewell to his prior selfish naive careless self, a pledge to himself that he’d never be so narrow minded ever again.
HAHAHAHA XD
I fucking laughed way harder than I should have!! Its the middle of the night and im dying!!!
Lmao
Party : Gale ? How can you even be alive??

What we didn’t see is Gale left a down payment with withers

@@michaelcreech8957 😆😆
I think it would be a potentially good ending actually…
Gale being resurrected by “Withers”
Gale pulled a fucking Jojo and attended his own funeral what a chad
😆💯
**Gale Explodes like a dying star**
Gale: **Walks into frame** "Man I'm glad I'm not that guy"
😆
The truly impressive part is Gale making all those ability checks to climb the brain stem as a wizard
💯
He got fit in the weeks it took us to get to this point. All those ladders, cragged rocks, and knotted roots we had to climb...
Have you not seen him? Dude is ripped
all the hours of sneaking around with tav has prevented his knees from aching.
I'm glad im not the only one who thought that was the craziest part. I was just thinking how long it would've taken him to climb that.
Gale: I'll sacrifice myself
Also Gale: I got a scroll of true resurrection.
😆😆😆 Brilliant
I can only imagine, this is a bug or they took out some secret scene, was in that game before. Wouldn’t be the first time
But i got a totally different ending. A way better one ❤
@@MoonsongReverb Yeah it was a bug and I believe they have patched it now. What was your ending?
Who did he sucker into doing all those complicated instructions for him
Wouldve been hilarious if Gale's Astral "In Case of Death" Recording showed up a few seconds after the explosion.
Gale wanted that crown so badly, not even death could stop him.
"Rage is a hell of an anaesthetic".

Never underestimate the power of spite.
@@Rhysdux 😆💯"Rage is a hell of an anesthetic"
Gale: "i dont wanna do this"
Tav: Gaslighting Gale into killing himself
Also Tav: "Thank you for your sacrifice, Gale"
😆😆
So let me gets this straight. Gale chooses to sacrifice himself to destroy the netherbrain, says his goodbyes, blows up, and then COMES BACK to say that he’s leaving and says goodbye AGAIN.
Truly a Gale of all time.
💯
FOR A MERE PITTANCE OF COIN I can cleave the soul into a body once more.
It's just a glitch. I think it's been patched at this point.
Tav's party: Gale?! We thought you were dead!
Gale: Sadly yes, but I lived!
😆😆
"I will be a God" - literally every wizard to ever live
and a few even managed...much to their regret.
or nerd
You should play Mask of the Betrayer. That games ending has you killing most of the gods in Toril bdfore the handful of survivors toss you into the far realms to pester cthulu, etc.
A god that instantly got clapped by Mystra anyway
Her whole home plane exploded, lol.
Gale leveled up as soon as he destroyed the Absolute, thus raising his Max HP, letting him survive the explosion
😆😆
Just like Gandalf & Balrog. Lvl up.
Unfortunately thats not how dnd levling works, though i wish it were som

"Somehow, Gale returned..."
He must have powers that some consider to be unnatural.
Dark psyonics, secrets only the Illithid knew.
Gale *goes for ultimate sacrifice*
Everybody in the party : "Gale,nooo 😭"
Withers: " How bout no"
*Gale appears on the docks* "Sup everyone😎"
Tav: "So Gale will blow himself up and destroy the Netherbrain?"
Withers: "Correct."
Tav: "But wait, that means he'll die, right?!"
Withers: "No."
Yeah just WTF how?is the two cut scene for different dialogue is mixed up?
Companions: “I-I thought you were dead?!”
Gale: “my death was… greatly exaggerated.”
He said "It's Orbin' time" and then Gale'd all over the cosmic horror gigabrain. Truly a moment in Baldur's Gate 3 and one of the moments in gaming history.
💯😆😆
I wish I could favourite comments 🤣
Oh so funny the same joke used over and over 🙄🙄🙄
@@eeefe972too bad it's still funny
@@eeefe972 Pathetic.
Blown up by a nuke? An inconvenience at worst
Tis but a scratch. Got to love magic as it can clearly perform miracles. Thanks for watching.
He Sacrificed himself so he too can live.
😆😆
As a master Wizard in the [Arts of Illusion], Gale's illusory projection of him exploding was of such a high spell save DC, that even the Elder Brain thought it was real, and died along with all the tadpoles and mind flayers as a result.
Hahahahaha 😂😂
Gale - his story will be legend, a powerful wizard who sacrificed himself to save his friends, devilishly handsome too I've heard.
😆😆I can imagine him saying this word for word.
Read this in his voice 😂
Tav: "last year, i lost my dear husband, gale"
Gale: "Quit telling everyone I'm dead!"
Tav: "sometimes, i can still hear his voice!"
😆😆
Old but gold brother bear moment
I hope they never patch this out, because for some reason.... it's a very Gale thing to do
😆 Very true.
Party: Were you killed?
Gale: Sadly yes... but I lived!
😆😆
The video: "A glitch"
Withers: "Or perhaps a resurrection"
Wow, the Clone spell. Gale hid from us that he was at least 15 level all this time.
😆💯
Man just needed to purge that orb and he was back to level 16.
@@callumjohnston858 💯👍
He has an astral projection set out for when he dies, the guy was probably lvl 20 some time ago but lost all his levels to Mistra that drained them and then he had to rebuild his rep by himself

“I am a God, You cannot slay a God! What a grand and intoxicating innocence…” -Gale
After reading the title:
Expectation: Mystra forgive Gale after his sacrifice and revived him as a reward.
Reality: bUGS
In the ending of Gale Mindflayer, if you decide to give the crown to Mystra, she offers you to go with her to save her soul, so if it has that ending
Everyone in the party, "Gale will always be remembered."
Gale, "Hello everyone. Did I miss anything?"
Karlach, "Fucking Hells!"
Jaheira, "Great. He's a zombie."

Tav, "You used the Scroll of True Ressurection didn't you."
Withers: "Thou soul thy World requires still"
the sheer gall of minthara to say that after abandoning Lolth lmao
He sent his doppelganger to blow up the brain.
Nah for some reason Minthara will STILL say "Praise the Absolute"
abomination!!!! 😂😂😂 i heard this so clearly
The same shit happened to me. I almost chocked myself when gale appeared like nothing
it's an astral projection he made beforehand. probably telling us he revived himself with his scroll of true resurrection.
"But it seems like Gale's mind is elsewhere." 6:18
Most hilarious, fucked up jump scare and it's entirely unintentional.
Well spotted.
“You knew Demiplane AND Clone this ENTIRE TIME???”
“Oh uh… surprise?”
😆😆
he got us in the first half, not gonna lie
😆💯
Gale was a smart archwizard and cast the clone spell before going oppenheimer on the brain
😆I mean it's the smartest thing to do in those circumstances.
hes not smart. smart wizards cast fly and fly up the brainstem...
@@lavather 😆 Love that
How would a decoy work when he himself is the bomb
@@serronserron1320 Very true. We're just trying to rationalise how this bug could be explained by the developers. Any ideas?
I think there's a plot hole here - Gale teleported the party away who had the artifact, so he should've been instantly dominated and transformed by the netherbrain.
I hadn’t thought about that before and you’re right.
@@DrGrimReaperGaming Yeah the game has several logical and plot holes in it lol.
@@vane909090 indeed
"I know quality when I see it."
[Macho Dragonborn Randy Savage stares in approval]
😆😆
Shiro Emiya: "People die when they are killed."
Gale: "Hold my beer."
The pause when you're choosing how to respond to gale reincarnate is a very relatable "what the hell is going on here" BG3 moment
😆 It certainly took me by surprise, I did think initially that I must have missed something if he somehow came back but no just a bug.
Gale: Slowly secumbing to the Illithid transformation and ready to sacrifice his life for Faerun and his friends
Tav: Dressed for Barnaby's Party
😆😆 I was going for the Randy Savage look, but that works just as well.
when a vision of the chosen of the dead 3 said gortash was young and handsom, this is what he should've looked like, seeing how good gale looks in Gortash's robe...
💯
I genuinely laughed when I saw Gortash for the first time either the emperor or the narrator is gaslighting us and I don’t know who
@@AikoSea The Emperor would do it to serve a purpose, the Narrator would do it for the lol's so it is indeed difficult to decide who it is 😆
It's the Absolute showing you the image of Gortash so my head cannon is that he's making it portray him better looking. But god, he looks like a guy in his late 40s who hangs out at Hot Topic hitting on the cashiers. I can only assume there was a character redesign or he looks very like whoever designed him.
@@Feralsquirrel ya like he’s having the crown yassify his face lol
I suppose Gale was save scumming, sneaky bastard XD
😆😆I can't blame him, considering the outcome.
It’s not a bug it’s a feature, the worm just lobotomized you enough to give you schizophrenia
Gale, dying for our sins then talking with his companions and leaving to become god. Like he's a metaphor for someone, I don't know.
Tav: "How are you still alive?"
Gale: "I have no idea!"
😆😆Too dumb to realise he should have died in the blast.
to be fair if this was gale in his prime it would make 100% sense lol
This happened to me. Gale is just that badass
It's crazy isn't it. I'm not sure how Larian could have missed this especially considering the amount of testing the game was subjected to (did you see the amount of game testers they used, in the credits?)
@@DrGrimReaperGamingit’s the tradition of larian games, polish first act the rest are optional
@@cen3684 That's disheartening to hear but it doesn't surprise me.

Shadowheart: Gale, No!
Tav: Gale, No!
Karlach: Gale, No!
Gale: Gale, YESSSS!!! 💥
Considering that it seems you originally went for the evil ending with him when discussing the crown, I like to imagine that the Gale that went up there and sacrificed himself was the remaining good in him.
💯Agree, even though it wasn't my intention to turn him evil, only for him to stand up for himself against Mystra. Looking back I should have realised this would have taken him down an evil path but I still feel this is a satisfying ending for this particular character's arc.
@@DrGrimReaperGamingYeah, I talked him into defying Mystra but i didnt let that guys ego take one step too far. Ironically, I tried to get him to take the crown after it fell into the chionthar and he refused
@@Theology.101 That is really cool to hear as that's one ending I didn't get to experience. You obviously have to choose your words carefully to get that ending.
@@DrGrimReaperGamingthe same thing happened to me I didn’t realize what I had done until we were at the nether brain and he was like you talked me into this and I had a record scratch moment lol
@@AikoSea 😆💯That's pretty much how I felt in the moment.
I guess he left his pouch with the resurrection protocol away from the explosion.
Player: Goodbye Gale.
Gale: Helloooooo Petal! Miss me?
😆😆
Dont trust him that's not Gail It's Ethel
ah now i know how it looks like when our/someone's characters died in a table campaign story
its not gale , its gale's brother or family or friends or something
GM : and with that happen i introduce to you gale's brother , come to replace his story once again
😆😆
I saw the title of this video and though that there was a bit after he dies to blowing himself up where Mystra brings him back to life after what he did.
Funnily enough, Gale also has this weird bug for me where if I talk to Elminster for the first time without Gale in my party, Elminster will give me dialogue asking if I know Gale but then when the camera pans to my character, guess who is always standing right next to me? Gale, for some weird reason or another. I have no clue what that bug is about and the buginess of this wizard is something I think about often.
😆 Gale is indeed a man of mystery.
Maybe Gale is a wild mage who is only pretending to be a wizard and reality just can't contain him.
Tav: Gale sacrificed himself to save us all.
Gale: Please stop telling them I'm dead!
Tav: I can sometimes still hear his voice.
Gale: I'm right here, stop ignoring me!
I had the ending where I stabbed myself to death after defying bhaal. and yet I was still there to comfort karlach as she blew up lol
😆Love finds a way I guess.
ayooo wtf xD
Shadowheart: I owe him my life...
Gale: made ya look!
😆😆
Honestly, big braib move
This is so like a powerful wizard though
You died?
I got better.
😆If that was the case, I would have liked it explained a little better rather than just see him return out of nowhere.
"Did you die?"
Gale: "Sadly, yes... But I lived!"
same vibes as Joseph going to his own funeral
Gale is so powerful that not even a explosion powerful enough to incinerate a whole Netherbrain (or castle) can kill him. Guess what we saw was only 1% of his true power.
💯
Had a similar issue with the ending. I made karlach a mindflayer and for some reason the game thought my paladin had turned into one. Even got the steam achivement for the mindflayer ending. Great game but act 3 is beyond bugged it seems
I believe I had the exact same bug, I got the end scene where I spoke to the Mind flayer Karlach, but before that the game thought that I was the mind flayer, and I agree it is a great game but I don't think just act 3 is beyond bugged it's the whole game.
I love the game so much and they are working on patches but like Skyrim with so much content there is still many things that are broken.
@@serronserron1320 I agree. I do feel there are too many bugs and glitches in the game, but believe Larian have such a love for the game that they will fix things eventually.
Ah yes, Skyrim ultra mythic dice edition
@@drogindito 😆😆
I love how the conversation you have with him before climbing the brain can literally play out as two snarky, loyal brothers-in-arms that would do anything for each other in the short time knowing one another. I love this game
💯
Secret Ending: Only you can see or interact with Gale. You have a tumor that the tadpole was keeping at bay. Now its a mindflayer tumor.
😆😆
Gale : hello
Dark Urge : Umh, didn't I asked you to die ? Let me unwrong this *unsheath blade*
😆😆
If minthara is a around at the ending where Gale uses the orb, she'll rejoice and say how pitiful gale is smart he was for doing the only thing was good for 😭
Says her, who pleads with you to save her if you go down her route and meet her again in Act 2. She has no room to mock.
Gale straight pulling a bruce wayne on us all
😆Obviously thought it would be a cool trick to do.
gale was really like... "TACTICAL NUKE DEPLOYED"
He really needs that crown.
😆💯
That is a hilarious bug. Big emotional sacrifice rendered meaningless. 🤦🏾♂️
Absolutely 💯
No no no it's perfect he's a wizard
I'm both happy and annoyed that I'm not the only one that had this cutscene where Gale still lives.
My exact thoughts as well, I'm happy that I wasn't the only one to experience this bug so it should be fixed quicker, but also annoyed that it was an issue in the first place and that others were also experiencing it.
Clearly he had the blood of lathander stashed somewhere 😂😂
😆😆That explanation is as good as any.
I find it funny for some reason that you can use friends in the last cinematic since it invalids any chance of them getting upset 10 turns later.
💯That's a good point.
Oh god the best bug ever xD
Tav at 06:37 is like WTF
I think this was fixed in one of the first patches because I did not get this issue. I did however attempt to take the tadpole from the emperor and have orpheos make my main a mindflayer resulting in my character instantly reverting to normal. Ya act 3 (especially the ending) has issues. I also hit a softlock in act 2 by killing the pixie then traveling back to the grove resulting in permanently losing the buff that allows going near moonrise (you dont get the bell in this scenario)
Party: "We thought you where dead!!"
Gale: "i...got better?"
*Gale hands Withers 100 gold before Netherbrain fight*
Withers: "Whateth this for?"
Gale: "An advance"
Wait LMAO in my playthrough HE wanted to die SO badly. Like I needed to tell him 3 times to STFU and climb with me to the crown.
It's crazy how a couple of minor decisions can lead you down a completely different path and give an alternative ending.
💥💥💥
-gale sacrificed for all of us.
Gale in the background:🚶♂️i need the crown
I am so glad this is an option to beat the game.I just don't have the patience to do a 43 hour boss fight with numerous phases and mechanics. I think they put an "I win" button for folks like me lol.
It's certainly an quick way to beat the boss and see the endings you got. Fighting the end boss over and over again can get tiresome.
Act 3 was so buggy, the finale caught my off guard with how fucked it was and kind of took me out of the experience
The whole game was buggy for me and at Act 3 I just took it in stride as I was done with the constant issues and I agree, with the ending I found it rather disappointing, they spoke about how there's 17,000 endings which I doubt but could be true, but as you say it took me out of the experience when the game just ended with no epilogues for anyone so we don't know what the consequences our actions hold. So how can there be 17,000 endings if we can't really see them. This game still feels in early access and we're the beta testers.
Wow! That's rad! Wondered if that was possible! 👍👍
Gale pulling a full on Joseph Joestar and just showing up after being in 100% chance of death situation and being like “so what’s everyone talking about?”
The brain did not give the order for the tadpoles to cease.
In both cases i'm wondering if that means that a bunch of people just has a dead, rotting worm in their skulls and what fabulous terminal illnesses that could spawn xd
I hadn't actually thought about that, it's a really good point but I'm sure somebody would explain/make an excuse that since they were magic Tadpoles they died along with the brain.
well since the magic protecting it died, and you have shadowheart, which is a level 12 cleric, she could (and probably would) fix this issue after a long rest. Other peoples ? Well they should find a good healer, and fast.
@@rorp24 The local optician is going to become extremely busy.
@@DrGrimReaperGaming You mean Volo.
@@Feralsquirrel Who else better, than a man who has read about it many times.
Gale had a habit of just showing up in cutscenes talking about him for us too. He was at camp when we met Elminster, who asked "Do you guys fw gale?" and Gale is just *there*.
😆😆Wizards have many secrets, some can move so slowly that they can appear invisible.
Besides his bugged return its rather interesting the story they wrote for him. He either dies at the end of act 2 preventing everything from ever happening saving the most people and preventing any attack or Mind Flayer transforms, dies in act 3 in an explosion, dies in act 3 if you are like "no Gale no". Or ascends and will be evil and keep his ego growing.
Actually oddly if he dies in act 2 when he wants to explode to end everything then and there, it’s the worst thing to do as you get an end screen that says that all the people which had Mind Flayer Tadpoles in their head turned and became mind flayers anyway, which I don’t think there’s an explanation as to why him exploding in act 2 or 3 are different.
@@DrGrimReaperGaming Oh wait that's true.
That's weird then, I wonder why the act 2 explosion doesn't kill all the tadpoles but the act 3 one does, I forgot that the act 2 explosion is supposed to be a "bad" ending but then why does doing the same thing work later, hah.
@@Goremize I’ve read theories about it and many are certainly plausible I don’t think there’s been a definitive answer to it yet, maybe the netherstones had to belong to one person and that’s why it worked, but that still wouldn’t answer it, as Gale teleports you safely away. I don’t know whether this is a plot hole or we’re just missing something obvious.
"There's endless wonder out there. Infinite possibilities. Perhaps fate will bring us back together, before the universe dims."
Fate: bring friends back together speedrun any %
😆😆
The party to Gale: "Did you die?"
Gale: "Sadly yes... BUT I SURVIVED!"
glad im not the only one who got this , really spoiled his noble sacrifice you know...
Absolutely 💯
Gale sure has improved his mirror image spell a lot.
😆
This was almost like out of a movie and epic
I did this with Gale, but didn't get an ending anything like this. Gale was standing there after it was all over as if he never blew himself up. Everything thanked my Tav for becoming a Mindflayer and saving everyone, even though I never did any such thing. I refused the tadpole. What a broken bugged ending of a game. 😞
Yeah it’s an unfortunate that a lot of these issues are still prevalent months after release, it certainly stunts your enjoyment of the game, as you’ve clearly experienced there’s no joy or contentment with finishing the game since it’s not the ending you wanted nor should have gotten.
this video misled me into thinking gale would survive, imagine my shock bc i didnt watch it to the end bc i wanted to see it for myself
I take it the bug didn't happen for you then?
19-22 bonus on that presuasion check is fucking mental
I always level up my Charisma/Persuasion in these sort of games for this very reason. However, I chose Diplomat as a background in Starfield thinking my persuasion skills would make convincing people far easier and yet it hasn't had that effect. It normally works but not always
@@DrGrimReaperGaming because starfield is a dogshit bethesda game. What did you expect lmfao
why the hell is your gale so evil? Mine practically begged me to blow himself up and was happy that the crown was lost.
I believe it was because I convinced him to after the crown, not realising that it might make him turn evil, I just wanted him to stand up to Mystra.
I just love how almost every video about BG3 choices has that *quicksaving* text
😂 I like playing in worlds where I can avoid consequences that I dislike.
Gale being every player in D&D when their character "dies"
Gale is still the main character
Idk what anyone says
I didn't progress Gale's 'gimme dat crown' quest enough, so, he was a lot more willing and accepting of blowing himself up - making my Honour Mode clear and achievement earned a lot easier to attain.
Ironically, by playing less of the game and ignoring Gale most of it, he made my victory and achievement a lot easier.
I love this game, but, strange design choice by Larian in that regard.
I guess in Larian's mind by not experiencing his questline that's the downside, whilst yes you've achieved the coveted honour mode trophy you've missed out on part of the game and a companions story.
Wow this game has so many variations! In my play through Gale was completely willing to sacrifice himself for a chance of redemption with Mystra
That’s what I’m going to try and get on my next play through
