It only triggers if you rest on the starting beach before recruiting too many companions.
Yeah at 60 hours and almost done with act 3 this dude missed a ton of shit.
“60 hours” …. “Halfway through act 3” What?
120 hours, just got to Lower City
I’m at 60 hours, finally managed to get to the goblin camp, decided to roll a new character last night.
This is the fourth time I’ve started again. I’m sure this time I’ll stick with this character until the end…
That was about my pace, yeah
Some people gotta go fast. :P (Or just miss a lot of content, who knows.)
There’s content for more than one playthrough.
Dang, I wish I knew this. Be nice if they tweak this trigger to happen later as well, not sure how many people are resting before recruiting at least 2-3 companions.
No spoiler tags or guidance?
I finished my first playthrough yesterday as the “heroic Dark Urge” referenced in the article and I can do nothing but echo their recommendations. The story came together so well that it feels like it should be canon and it has a lot of custom content.

Just be aware there’s a good reason that the default Durge is a charisma-focused class, because some of the skill checks for their story can be… tough.
I’m definitely going to try it on my next playthrough.
I’m pretty sure that if there’s ever a BG3:DLC or BG4, the redeemed Dark Urge SL will be canon. What with >!Withers intervention, the warning about your own offspring, etc.!<
Or if there will be an official canon WotC novelization…
Knowing what they did with the (now canon) BG 1&2 novelization I pray WotC stay far away.
