I just discovered your channel and only watched half of this video plus skimmed through a few others over your videos and I can already say you're the best DND lore RU-vidr out there. I'm a DND lore but have been watching channels like mighty glue stick, DM Scotty, Jordan, ECT and I always fantasized finding a channel like yours. Either videos have great visuals that match what is being said but are only 5 to 10 minutes long. Not going into great detail. Or they will be detailed 30 minute videos with just showing the first Page or search results on Google images. This channel is going to grow massive

@RichesandLiches 4 месяца назад

Wow! Thank you for saying such kind things! I do not know that I deserve that level praise just yet, but the words sure are motivating! :) I try to make every video better than the last and while that is not always the outcome, its a good principle to work under. Here is a little peak behind the curtain... there are many times when the production of these videos gets into the 40th or 50th hour and I REALLY do think about cutting some corner to "wrap it up"... but then I find/remember a comment like this and it truly keeps me on track... so sincerel... thank you!

Its pretty obvious that Abdel lost the final confrontation with his half brother Veikang that cost him his life. In Throne of Bhaal Abdel gave up his devinity to become a regular mortal meaning his connection with Bhaal was severed, he lost all his devine essence and Bhaalspawn powers like Imoen, it also becomes paifully clear that he lost his ability to become rhe slayer as whell. So that ambiguity of who lost the final confrontation makes little sence as its pretty obvious Abdel Adrian was defeated by Veikang who became the Slayer and was killed by the flaming fist. What i find weird is why Veikang confronted Abdel at all, because when Abdel gave up his devinity Veikang was the absolute last Bhaalspawn remaining

I never comment on lore videos. I must say I've been following your lore videos from day one. I'm running Decent into Avernus and your videos on the Hells have inspired me. The great story art in my eyes is some of the best I've seen. Riley Tome Keeper : ) is great! Your lore videos on the lich are equally impressive. This is why I think you would do an impressive video on two liches that don't get much love in D&D lore. One is Szass Tam who got some recognition from the "Honor Amongest Thieves" D&D movie. I've seen very few videos of him and the ones that I have maybe one is good. The other is a Netherness lich Larloch. This one you might find interesting. Both are from the Forgotten Realms setting. With your in-depth reacher and eye for detail. I think you would knock it out of the park! Keep up the good work it hasn't gone unnoticed!! Now on to this Baldur's Gate lore!

Just an idea - you could also videos on specific quest lines or locations in the baldurs gate universe, for example I’d love for you to do a video on Durlag’s Tower. Also, individual characters like Minsc, Jon Irenicus, etc. I love your baldurs gate content. I have played the games but I am not familiar with the larger DnD universe. So, your content that goes through the game stuff and ties it into the larger world is very helpful and satisfying - it touches my nostalgia for these games but also educates me about their origins and larger connections.

Really good storytelling, although some things are not canon (you can hardly defeat Sarevok on your own e.g., because of his other goons present), but hey, most things seem canon, and you slowly build tension of storytelling, while also creating temporary release now and then, in what seems a very natural way. It is sad though that you mention nothing of Minsc or Dynaheir, who also belong to the canon party of BG1. Would have been nice with fleeting mention of a few other possible party members, Abdel either declining their offers, or only keeping them in the party for a short while, so as to not make the story far too long.

@RichesandLiches 4 месяца назад

You are not wrong... I was trying to stay true to my first playthrough memories from so many years ago, but the story would have been enhanced by adding both. You can fully expect a more "creative" telling with Minsc included in the BG 2 story that is in the works.

Do you have a link/credit for the art you use? It is amazing and I’d love some of them as wallpapers

@RichesandLiches 5 месяцев назад

Image credit attributed in the videos but the vast majority of the art I own the rights to. I have a commercial license to create and own. I have HD image packs on my patreon, but I also post images in the community tab for all. If you have a specific image you'd like, feel free to shoot me an email and I would be happy to send you the HD of it (include specifics including video and timestamp so I can locate it for you). richesandliches@gmail.com

I didn't realize that the Bhaalspawn who rejected Bhaal which Jaheira and Minsc kept referencing in BG3 was the protagonist of BG1

Love your videos! I have never managed to finish BG2 due to restartitis. This one truly inspired me and I have now started a run with Abdel Adrian (the pre-generated character) with SCS on core difficulty. However, to make him true to your story, I have changed his sub-class to berserker to reflect the strange trance taking him over in battle. I'll have to see if I can replace one of his innate heals by blindness as he uses it in your story, not sure my EEKeeper-fu will be strong enough. Thanks Rich, you may have cured my disease 😁

It is comments like these that really make my work rewarding. Thank you!

No Minsc or Boo is almost sacrilegious.

@RichesandLiches 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, I understand. Apologies.

Been searching the web of your upload of the part 2 of the game but looks like you don’t have. Going to be getting bg 3 soon and never played any so trying to know the story

@RichesandLiches 6 месяцев назад

Unfortunately, I have not produced volume 2 yet. Lots of projects and not enough hours each day. Thanks for watching!

i was surprised to see Sarevok in BG3. not only is he alive (!) but he is a preist of Baal (!!). what the heck! did those Larian guys even see bg 1 and 2?

@jameslynch2110 4 месяца назад

i was also thinking about this alot, same with Viconia DeVir, kinda butchered their stories.

@@DmSereb ooof minor spoiled a little there, but yea, she is and her story about getting away from a dangerous cult life, pretty much just shot in the foot with where Larian wrote her.
