I hadn’t walked along the mountain range ever… whoops
It’s only my 2nd play through, which I started because act 3 was getting incredibly difficult for no reason - and wow I missed so so much content on my first play through (like didn’t even grab Karlach or wyll until after I cleared the goblins and saved the grove on my 1st play through - never killed Nere… didn’t even clear the spiders at the bottom of the well, just got by a bunch of the story using smoke powder and rogue deception).
So I restarted got a bunch more done in less time, but I had always been more attracted to going through the underdark, was on my way to clear moonrise towers again ect. Then I find a dead githyanki, find the item that locates the creche… and now I’m walking through the mountains from the shadow cursed lands… almost get got by the ghouls there, but then I’m greeted to the mountain range - wow it’s amazing. This game is so expansive that I’m upset I robbed myself of all these moments in my 1st play through!!
Super excited to keep going and just wanted to share
