    I personally recommend playing on the balanced difficulty for the first time, because it is fairly difficult, making you use everything in your arsenal more tactically than just for pure damage. I got so much use out of heat metal in tough fights to make the bosses simply drop their weapons, or using Tasha's hideous laughter to make them skip a turn and give advantage on every melee attack against them.

    This game has so much replayability it is amazing. After putting 90 ish hours into my first playthrough (with 4 players so I missed some of the companion stuff), I am going in for a second run in as 4 dragons in the hard difficulty. And on the side I have my single player and two player saves as well! Amazing game in all!

    If you want to romance a specific companion I would suggest searching up the steps beforehand bc there are some characters that won't romance you if you make certain choices. An example is that I wanted to romance Shadowheart, but I failed to save the grove, and I didnt know why I wasnt able to be romantically involved with her. It turns out theirs a scene that only unlocks if you succesfully save the grove, so Im not able to romance her on my main run anymore

    Made a Dark Urge Vengeance Paladin, multiclassed into Draconic bloodline sorcerer for some cheese (Pact of the Blade warlock also works great). It was actually amazing when you fight to resist giving in to the Dark Side, and then get the chance to go full psycho on "the wicked", emerge covered in blood from head to toe, smiling like Patrick Bateman. Sorcerer also has some crazy megalomaniac lines that go really well with a darker-minded character. Bard is tons of fun, in and out of combat. Hell, every class and race has its quirks, situations, scenarious that make you squee. Unfortunately, playing the regular "Tav" doesn't have as much colour as with companion characters, or the Dark Urge.
