Some thoughts on my second runs of BG3 and Remnant II. Also a little PUBG twisted metal action.
Remnant
I'm not sure how many playthroughs have significantly different content, but it's at least two. To be more specific, while the worlds don't change between campaigns, subareas, unlockables, and bosses do.
The Losomn sewer has a key combo puzzle that requires flashing your light at the wall scratchings. I couldn't find the last number but got it on my first of ten guesses.
Oh Mudtooth, you old coot. He's the Grandma Flexington of Remnant, but boring. But at the end of his lengthy set of monologues is an archetype (Gunslinger) if you're in the Root Earth area. Plus a pendant and ring.
Nightweaver was about as hard as the final boss.
Squadgame
PUBG has been good for vehicle action.
We took an RPG to the Hyundai windscreen and immediately wanted to try it on another team. The result was two exploded UAZes and eight crates.
BG3 Take 2
Last time around I solved the tieflings' problems by rampaging on the goblin camp. The Emerald Grove defense was a bit more fun although I didn't realize I was supposed to light the fires.
So I guess if you let Auntie Ethel go in the first act she gives you hair that, if consumed (ew), gives a permanent stat boost. I'm trying to semi-minmax since on hard difficulty I imagine the oligarchs of Baldur's Gate will be challenging.
Stupid Halsin said I should either take the Rosymorn road or the Underdark. Last time I went road with a sense of urgency due to the eye parasite thing. Both is the right answer.
The Grymforge is a neat place to score weps, particularly heavy armor for my strength build.
Turns out that on my first playthrough I sorta ambushed the Harper ambush before they had the chance to ambush the spider guy. Getting Dolly x3's immunity buff is way better than carrying a stupid lantern around.
My go-to tactic last time was spike growth with ranged attacks. Flyers and teleporters would bypass the brambles and fight my tanks, low-tier enemies would slowly run to their doom. Nobody's managed to get the spell this time and so for the more difficult battles I've had to use wall of fire. It's okay but I miss my thorns.
