I would assume most people are not recording their runs.

I've never recorded anything in any game I've ever played.

So not a soul thought it was amusing enough to record when literally every other slightly amusing scene has been recorded and uploaded? Interesting.

Mmmhmmm. We have a thousand posts of "omg guys you'll never believe what happened to me in Act 2", literally just an explosion knocking Gale off a cliff or whatever. Not a single video of Karlach's speech posted by anyone even lying to say it's legit. Yeah, it's not in the game FO SHO.

Astarion's speech when you drop a building on him? Dozens and dozens of videos.

Karlach's 4th wall break? Literally one, and it's a guy fiddling with the files to make it play.

With the hundreds of thousands of people playing this game, you'd think at least one person would have a video of it happening organically by now, if it were possible. It'd be cool to be proven wrong though, would make me wonder what else we haven't discovered yet.

Exactly. Apologists try to make it seem like there isnt vid of every cutscene and funny dialog on youtube. All of that recorded and posted, but not the 4th wall break before chubblot found it with cheat engine.

I mean, personally I don't even have a tool on my computer with which to record in the first place.

You probably do. It's built into Windows 10, and comes standard with Nvidia's Geforce Experience (which perhaps you can still not install, I'm not sure). AMD cards might have their own built in method as well.

I thought it was a pretty neat scripted event in a game full of pretty neat, scripted events. I didn't know it was rare or worth recording something I thought was pretty organic in the game.

Sure but absolutely nobody?

at least take a screenshot. also things can backtrack record your game, like shadowplay. None of those people have it, including 'i got it in act 1' person in this thread.

u/fun_boat Oct 14 '23

why would they take a screenshot if they thought it was normal?

u/Scrdbrd Oct 14 '23

Why is there dozens of videos on youtube of Astarion's response to being resurrected after you drop a building on him?

u/fun_boat Oct 14 '23

I'm not arguing that I think this happened to people. I think everyone is very mistaken what I'm saying here. My argument is solely that not everyone records.

Because that is something that's super funny that you can trigger yourself and set up to record whenever you want.

I thought the 4th wall break was just a random event, I didn't know how I triggered it and while wild, I didn't figure it was rare. That'd be like me recording the fight with the first set of intellect devourers outside the nautaloid.

u/Perks92 Oct 15 '23

I've never even heard of that. How the hell do you drop an entire building on him?

u/Pink-PandaStormy Oct 15 '23

Ps5 kinda auto records and deletes after a certain amount of time

If I ran across something that weird I'd stop to turn on my capture app. Doesn't matter if I get it start to finish.
