I'm trying to make sure I don't miss any quests or items in BG3. Are there any good ways to track quests, hidden stuff, or collectibles? Any mods or tools that help with keeping track of everything? Would love to hear any tips from other completionists!

If you fail to get Gale out of the portal, reload your save. I thought he'd just show up later if you fail. He doesn't.

    I always thought that was a bit lazy. Most other characters have multiple points in which you can recruit them. Not to mention you could lose Gale just because you had a bad dice roll.

    I think it's so there's a reason Gale doesn't explode on you if ignored, or if you bite his hand off. I'd rather he just not explode, but hey ho.

    Yeah, I find it really stupid and you're a breath of fresh air. Everyone glazed this game so much in release that when I'd complain about it people would just tell me I should've used my inspirations. (Guess what! I did! I used them all.) Locking an entire character, with HOURS of dialogue and content associated with them, behind a TOTALLY RANDOM chance, is such bullshit.

    I put ~100 hours in and that was my biggest gripe. There were a few other minor things I missed, but none were as annoying as that. I never thought they'd lock a companion behind a skill check you could just totally fail.

    Just save often, and maybe check the wiki after you're done with areas so you avoid spoilers.
