P.S.: And Khelgar Ironfist was great! I did actually like Sagani, but notice how her ending had no influence on Deadfire. It's like they want you to believe she never existed! Khelgar is from before this cabal formed so... 1 Link to post Share on other sites

This too. It's a well known fact that a dwarf isn't a dwarf unless they (a) wield an axe or, at a push, a hammer, (b) wear heavy armour, (c) have a great big bushy beard, (c2) are male or at least appear male and (d) are always drunk. Bonus points if they hate/are scared of trees for some reason. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Unlike all (?) the other P/NPCs I could only remember his plot starting on the 2nd island, which would have explained how someone who didn't play much would get the impression he had no plot compared to the others. Reveal hidden contents specifically starting with the black market/ arena or the smugglers' cave, whichever you did first He's got a note on him that he talks to you about and interacts with some dwarf prisoners.

Me, I'd love if everyone had Scottish or Welsh accents (I play with subtitles anyway, so). Like, what DA:O did with their dwarven society was pretty great and refreshing. But yikes them accents.

Not saying it's a bad thing in the least. I think they're the best part of "fantasy comfort food", to be frank: they could play up that archetype in every fantasy game and I'd lap it up. But I do appreciate a company attempting to do something different, and probably more interesting, with dwarves every once in a while. I think it worked with Sagani. Less so with Konstanten (who in some ways also felt closer to that dwarven archetype than Sagani did too).

ArtistFormerlyKnownasKP 6,530 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I think Sagani is ok, she clearly differs from the typical dwarf archetype but not in such a way it feels like an inversion. Given BG3 is happening in the Forgotten Realms it's a safe bet dwarves are gonna be alcoholic scots but maybe we'll get lucky and get a female dwarf companion/pc who just wants put on comedic plays.
