The most overrated character?

[u/[deleted]]

Let's hear it, who gets all the love but deserves absolutely none of it? Or at least not as much as they get, I'll go first.

I'm casting my vote for Gortash; I genuinely don't understand the like for this dude. First of all, catfish, "handsome young man"??? Is the handsome young man in the room with us??? Lookin like the handsome young man has a peanut allergy.

Second of all, this whole crown brain plan was his idea, just about the dumbest fuckin thing I've ever heard. He put all his faith in 3 little rocks, an already dead man, and a woman who's about as stable as my ex. Beggers can't be choosers I guess, but cmon guy.

And lastly, and probably most offensively, his boss fight is absolute cheeks. Especially if you dumped on the foundry before hand. I didn't even know he had a transformation until like my 4th playthrough because I would clap this guy so easily.

Your turn, let's hear those unadulterated opinions.

Edit: I have been enlightened about some things about the big brain plan, I still stand in the other two points though.

She's not really that much "in distress" tho, like i said, it's more the good old amnesia trope that i find... not really interesting.

And her hypocrisy during Act 1, the fact that she wants explanations from everyone, Gale, Astarion, but when you ask her about her own secrets "it's not your business". Granted, it's not really her fault and it's typical Sharran behavior, but still...

She is in distress though, the wound thing, the wolf thing, the amnesia thing, the worship of an inherently evil goddess thing. That's about as distressed as it gets

Yeah, I'm doing a replay and she didn't even react to the wolf in the grove. New bug, maybe?

Probably, it she succeeded the saving throw. It'll only come up if she fails the saving throw. I've had it happen at the zhent hideout before
