Link don't work 😅
Seeing Neil actually act out Astarion live is a delight.
Highly recommend what high rollers did with them
Mark Hulmes ran a 1 shot with the cast
@@Pluto137I second that! It was with the main companion actors too. I loved it!
3rd! Highroller’s BG3 one shot was amazing!
@@Rendoku25
Right 😂
“We’re tadpoling” will never get old
What's tadpoling?
@@matthewnegre8736it's like private messaging but instead of using phones they're using the worms in their brains (so kind of the same thing really)
@@matthewnegre8736 they have a mindflayer tadpole/worm/parasite that allows them to comunicate telepathically
@@zeroderorero3948 I love it lol
😂😂
"You both just looked into each other's eyes for an extended length of time without speaking" - It's giving 'Hey we saw you from across the bar and liked your vibe'
"what Gid is tryna say, is we saw you across the bar and we liked your vibe" - Rich/Kremy
Is this an Ally reference? 😂
"When you see a goblin, pretend that you don't see a goblin". The best and the most honest instruction on flirting 🤣
Karlach won my bard in my first BG3 run, because of the direct approach she used. The moment I heard the "I wanna ride you 'till you see the stars." line, my bard was Karlach's forever
She had me at Kar--
I was in immediately. Never looked back. "Oh, your skin is constantly on fire and you were born in Hell? I too am from the South." I said in my brain and that was that.
@@fictionmythnot born in hell but forced to fight in hell for 10 years with an infernal engine. Karlach was born in Baldurs Gate
Karlach won a place on my mantel on my first run.
I wish a real woman would be that direct with me. 😈
Dommy Mommy Laezel has some hillarious romance scenes.
I like to imagine Astarion doing this very obvious gesturing while they’re having this telepathic conversation
Every day, the line between Neil Newbon and Astarion gets thinner and thinner. 😊
One day, he's going to be spotted with a rat in his hand and we will know the Venn Diagram has become a circle
@@Mrryn he now has part of Asterion's laugh in his normal laugh.
He is now Neil Ancunin. Or Astarion Newbon. Take your pick
He has said before that Astarion is the character he has had the most trouble with when it comes to take the characters mannerism out of his daily life
Okay, but Karlachs direct approach is basically why I have to pry myself away every playthrough. "I wanna ride you until you see stars" might be the GOAT pickup line tbh
Ah, I missed it, how could I miss it!
I'm distracted by Neil with a RIDER-WAITE "THE STAR" TAROT CARD SHIRT. sir! SIR!
He knows *exactly* what he’s doing, that’s for sure!
I know the card but don't get why it's special on Neil. Can you explain?
@@SilverAnicore the name Astarion derives from the Greek for 'starry', but it's also been interpreted as 'little star' :)
@@maliattha Aw :)
It’s got David Bowie on it too!
Don’t listen to him Karlach. Your direct approach works too 😂
Yeah best girl karlach!!!
You. Me. Bed. Now.
I mean... It worked on me in BG3 😂
I need the direct approach, I'm useless with detecting flirting.
This is why their characters are the top favorites
Karlach I would agree with but not Astarion. Shadowheart is number 1.
@@Damalon01Astarion is by far the most popular male character and pretty surely in the top 3 overall
@@Smeik2901Astarion is the only worthwhile male imo.
The females are great...
I will say the voicing are all great btw. I was just talking characters.
@@Ravagerblade Don't say that where any Gale fans can hear you. Or Halsin fans.
That's everyone, right? I'm sure it's right.
"grabs it, drinks it"
"darling, its called flirting and we need to start from the basics"
LMFAO
“I’ve always found the direct approach works.”
“Gods I wanna ride you until I see stars!”
We know Karlach, wr know.
Astarion voice actor is next level
Neil is AMAZING. I subscribed to his twitch channel after I found out that he actually streams regularly!
@Nightingale_time I watched him play Leathal Company for the first time. It was so so so funny! He's one of my favorite streamers to watch!
@@swanqueen What's his channel called, if you don't mind sharing :D
@PichDextro on twitch he is @NeilNewbon
If you haven't seen this one-shot, go watch! It's hilarious XD
I'm not that far into the game yet. Do I have to worry about spoilers for the game in the one shot?
@@AssassinLupus7 there are no BG3 related spoilers in this session. This was fun to watch
@@WindAlchemist23 Awesome! Thanks for letting me know. I'll check it out then.
Okay but where? What do I look for to find this?
@@Fluoman_ If you're on mobile, tap where it has the arrow pointing to the right and says "An Astarion and Karlach Adventur." That took me right to it, best I can tell.
I never knew I needed this table in my life. . .my two favourite Baldur’s Gate characters AND performers rolling dice with the delightful Anjali Bhimani and DnD god-king Brennan Lee Mulligan at the table of Queen Aabria Iyengar ♥️♥️♥️
The High Rollers one-shot with the cast is really good too! Has all the Origin characters! (Well except Durge lol)
It was truly unpredictable chaos in the best way.
@Aidscapade71 yeah having Durge would have been a problem, I think. Everything's going well but "Uh. Guys. Bad news. So... that NPC died. Mysteriously. Somehow. Really tragic. Anyway we're going to need a new lead."
"Darling if I find their head in your pack I am not speaking to you for at least two days."
"... just the head, though?"
As an autistic, I really appreciate the Karlach way
as a fellow Autistic Yes!
(I haven't played BG3 (but what I've seen of it I really.)) .)
However if Karlach met my DND character (from the first DND campaign (if I'm misremembering then it was the first 5e campaign)) I played) I Karlach would probably attempt to adopt my character as a younger sibling (by extension she'd have to adopt my character's brother as a younger sibling too).😂
I saw Neil in pics and was like "THAT'S the guy who voiced Astarion?!" Then saw this and him voicing Astation with full emoting and went "Ah. Yeah, THAT'S DEFINITELY the giy who voiced Astarion." XD
Sometimes I feel like Baldur's Gate III hasn't only propelled the careers of many great voice actors like these guys, but also kinda helped the whole profession of voice acting i general to get a little more welf-deserved recognition. Pretty cool!
i like how naturaly they just go into the character voice like its a normal everyday thing XD
I love that they use the tadpole.
Aabriya must have felt so estatic to be able to run a campaign with the VAs for Karlach and Astarion.
Flirting being like 😮😮😮
Fanimators we need a animatic of this 😂
Gods, my favourite two characters together, I am happy
I have never played Baldur's Gate..... but I am going to JUST for Astarion.
Literally why I got it. I'm almost 200 hours in now. No regrets.
That's how I started and now I'm enslaved.
To be fair she's not wrong. Direct approach worked beautifully.
Karlach, the love of my life, everyone!
As subtle as a dwarven war hammer
I was not expecting the actor to look like his character o m g
Speaking from personal experience, the direct approach has yielded good results.
Love me some Astarion
I'm playing a warlock rn who is morally ambiguous and is very fickle with how he deals with people. Karlach is the angel my party, Astarion is the devil I treat like he is my personal attack dog and Shadowheart is the leash that keeps us three from all attaining one shared brain cell too often. 😂
From the moment my druid met Karlach I was done for. My hubby is lowkey jealous, but he gets it
In certain spots of the internet, "Smash the goblin." means two things. :)
Ah, see, that's why I'm a natural at it, because I've never seen a goblin in my life.
Direct approach is a vastly superior way of flirting.
This is the life lesson I needed decades ago.
It’s such a beautifully deadly piece of work.
I love it.
The best part is Neil having a t-shirt with tarot card "The Star" he's(and Astarion lol)such a diva
The BG3 cast playing DnD as their character with Aabria DMing?? Sign me UP!
His voice, it's drool inducing.
Rubbing finger around the rim had my mind go other places 😉
Thank you!! I could not believe no one else was talking about that.
Is Karlach’s voice actor enby?
I believe so.
Yes
Learning this, as an NB, made me a level of thrilled I can't otherwise describe. I must now romance the fiery teifling during my next playthrough. 🖤💜🤍💛
Yes please continue !
i love that this whole session is just like astarion and karlach having what is essentially just girl time at a sleepover
There are 2 types of flirts:
1st is Neil's type where they play the game cunningly or so they think.
The second is the direct approach, they know what they want and they go for it.
Karlach was my romance in the first playthrough. the moment she won me over completely was the tiny peck kiss where you still singe yourself. she just got so giddy after that and suddenly she seemed too adorable to not love.
Samantha is so much in character, adore it.
She's such a great GM😂 "oh you were metagaming were you?"😂
Omg im in love with this crossover
Aabria knows telepathy still happens in real time. Just don't bring Melora into Lolth's group chat.
Can I get more basic life tutorials from Astarion? He’s very informative
I need to find this when they are live.
Ah, the Sigil ad at the end is just as jarring and out of place in this short as it was in the full video :D
I thought flirting was more like... you want to smash with the goblin, but you want the goblin it's his idea. So you put out a really tempting bit of target, and let him suggest it. You may have to point out the target though as it may be less obvious than you think. Or he's just that dense.
I'm convinced he needs to voice more characters in video games
I just have to watch this!
DM: "She just sort of rubbed her finger around the rim..."
Me: "Oh!"
DM: "...of the mug."
Me: "Ah okay."
This is why i love Karlach. She's so direct and doesn't play games. I want someone to be direct with me and tell me what they want. I will always love Karlach.
Karlach flirting be like... "Gods i want to ride you till you see stars" and i garauntee it has a 100% success rate.
Oh I need to watch this one 😂
Damn, looks insane! Wish I had a non-potato PC to try it, but someday haha
I love them so much
Omg Aabria!
excellent !!!!^^
Team karlach. Being direct usually works 😂😂
Did...Did Larian Stuidos model the characters off their VA's? Because that'd be freaking awesome.
Yes, and Neil was the director of motion capture, same as for Detroit.
come on we a show of this
I want astarion to teach me how to flirt
I love that goblins are getting the smashing hehehehe
Smashing a Goblin...
PHRASING
I couldn't stand that DM for a single minute.
HI AABRIA
Is sam wearing a non binary dnd pin?!?!?!
Yes! They are nonbinary ❤
Oh that's what the pin is!
I see Astarion and Samantha Beart. I guess she needs a director to be Karlach.
nah Karlach's flirting makes sense to anybody who is neurodivergent. I need that sort of energy in my everyday life
where can i watch the whole thing?
This is why I Karlach is best girl
Karlach darling, sometimes the direct approach is the best way, some of us are too stupid to understand subtlety
Neil could actualy play Astarion in a live action
🖤😳
Oh is karlach's va an enby?? Interesting i think i might like their voice more
...I actually think Karlach and Astarion would be a pretty good fit.
This opinion before I realized this sort of thing was a...thing. They just work. Their backstories are similar, but not the same. They have the same motivations. One is more likely to choose evil, the other is likely to choose good...
Honestly. (I typed this all thinking of Astarion's voice. I'm actually very embarrassed about how much I like that character.)
Whos the makeup artist for men on this show like fr give this man some anti shine primer st@t! ❤
What do I need to search to find the full show????
czcams.com/video/Cn7XLBykzEU/video.html
Where. Where can i find this and what is it. How and why is this the first im seeing of this
lmfao
What’s with the Fortnite model Astarion?
Did they have to tape Neil's mic to his face? That must have been one hell of an annoying distraction.
I mean that’s how it’s traditionally done in stage performing/theatre
As someone that has taped his own infected eye shut several times.
Its shocking what you can get used to and forget about.
I don't even want to say how many times I've gone "Wow! Oh right, I have tap over my eye." When walking past a mirror.
😂
No Shadowheart?! Im outta here.
1st
