How are you all making it interesting? I went with every time a Dark Urge option appears I flip a coin to determine whether it wins or not.

Gale got to live :(

I went with paladin with Oath of Vengeance. Internal struggle between The Urge and The Oath is very interesting IMO. Now doing same with Monkm except paladin was good route, monk will be evil. DU is honestly just custom character, but better

I am Oath of Devotion Paladin, the struggle is very interesting. Trying my hardest to resist it, and paying the devil's due (almost literally) whenever I can't to the oathbreaker.

Go for some and don't got for others. I kind of spoiled the gale one and I didn't want to miss on a companion so it was obvious. But generally I go for ones with interesting choices.

Absolutely loved the pure insanity that some urge choices can lead you to. It's not about being a complete murder hobo and slaughtering anything and everything for lulz. It's about picking your "moments" and cherishing them.

For example in the grove:
There's this disrespectful and distasteful druid woman who's keeping a child captive and threatens her life with a poisonous snake. I want to screw the druid over because I don't like her attitude toward Tiefling "devils" as she calls them (I'm playing as a Tiefling) so I convince the child to attempt to run on purpose because I know the snake will kill her if she tries. This turn of events makes the druid woman look like an idiot because and she gets reprimanded by her peers and later on when the parents find out the child died "because of her" they murder her
.

Absolutely beautiful turn of events couldn't have gone better than I imagined. Makes an old Sith smile.

I'm trying to resist. On the next playthrough, I won't.

Made my character a Cleric, good guy, nice all around, and then watched him slowly lose his mind as he gave in to the intrusive thoughts.

I mostly go for the "the-more-blood-the-better" choices ... because it's makes me laugh. (Gale, can I offer you a hand?) Plus, I enjoy the looks on my companions faces.
The only exception are animals though - can't bring myself to slaughter them.

Or just go with all the urges and give in to become the bloodiest slayer of them all.

There's few to no consequences for doing this. I surrender to my urges constantly and the most that happens is an extra battle and some companions looking at me funny. You can get over it.

The consequence is missing ton of content.

The Gale scene caught me off guard ... almost reloaded, but I just went with it.

Learn to accept failure.

Or not, I wouldn't call failed rolls failure in BG3, it just changes the narrative, you'll still be able to complete the game, some people will die, and that will be part of the story you've created.

Lol I am dreading the Last Light Inn coin flip. If it goes to Urge that is going to be a short Act 2 that is for sure :)
