To be fair to Mystra, she's the goddess of magic, not the goddess of good ideas.

[Mediados]

The Sword Coast enslaved, the world in danger of being taken over.

Mystra: "Well looks like we saved the day yet again!"

[FlashmanVC]

I bet there’s at least one person out there who will play this, not realize how much of the game was left, and miss the second half of the game entirely

[PippoGameKingPOo]

Gale really said "It's Galing time"

[jazzoj]

Well turns out Mystra's plan was rubbish

[alexisrios]

Gale: I need to blow up.
Trav: Gale for the love of god at least let us evacuate!

[CircusofPython]

Good ol “save before f’ing around and finding out” lol

[shadowsage]

love that narrator "not the ending you were meant for, but it is one..."

[kruszewskimikoaj]

The way Gortash, Orin and Ketheric look is priceless.

[RegisTraiter]

Mystra once again proves herself a goddess capable of creating solid, well thought-out plans.

[robozombie]

I did it, shocked I got an ending, accepted my choice and started a new character as the Dark Urge this time, met Gale and HOLY CRAP.

[Kpsla]

Could have at least had Moonrise Tower collapse.

[Buswik]

Lol I got this because I thought that there has to be some plot armor that saves us but they just roll the credits. There was an option to continue in the main menu and it loads the save from the door so the devs propably knew people might regret doing that

[monicabellu]

"Though not the one destiny had in store for you" aka you messed too much with the DM.

[Tlhague]

Mystra: We did it Elminster! We saved Faerun!

[MytzerL]

The fact that you can simply blow up and end the whole game with just chosing a line of text it's as funny as incredibly well though. Props to you Larian!

[It_Skitty]

"One last Gale to end them all" had me cracking up 😂

[MatthewCampbell]

I actually got this on my first playthrough. In-character, my Tav PC was largely...understanding of the plan, perhaps to a comical degree. Sure, he didn't want him or Gale to die, but hey, sometimes you got to commit sacrifices for the greater good, plus a literal deity is telling the party it's a good idea. Punch those numbers into a calculator and it works out.

Out-of-character, I could tell the game wasn't over yet so I figured that the game would intervene and stop me in some way. I didn't expect it to actually let me go through with it just like that.

[milaahrens]

Gale throughout the game :"My main goal, is to blow up hrahrahrahra"

[eleanorgreywolfe]

That was.. underwhelming. The tower still stands despite what the narrator says, even the explosion is underwhelming.
