I mean arguably its the best and easiest place to take him out. There's not really a reason to keep him alive unless you really are in an Evil campaign.

Even if I was evil, I'd never team up with someone like him, unless he could provide me with something that I couldn't obtain without him. He's incredibly selfish, arrogant, and condescending. I can't see any evil -or even any good- character I play tolerating his banter, and demands. The only reason I didn't kill him outright in the first playthrough was because he killed me when I tried. LOL. I just wasn't powerful enough the first time through.

If you think Gale as a character is terrible, you should see his voice actors role in Toast of London, as "Danny Bear."

Tim Downie is just a little too good at playing arrogant jerks.

What? I don't think he's terrible. Are you confusing what I said about Balthazar, thinking I'm talking about Gale?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I confused the two, because Gale gets on my nerves and your descriptors fit how I feel about Gale lmao.

It's because elsewhere I commented about cutting off Gale's hand as durge and thought you were responding to that one, got myself confused.

Funny. I did the same thing yesterday, I wrote out a very long response to the completely wrong person, on a completely different post, because I was having two similar conversations.

I think Gale is pretty cool. He chills out on the Goodie-Two-Shoes act in act 3 when some opportunities present themselves. Idk if he only goes that direction if you push him in that direction, but push I did! He's smart, and capable, and pliable too.
