I realllyyyyy hate how people say Mr.Hoadly is misplaced with his voice for Cazador, not every villain needs a stupid deep daddy voice! Let him be a goof

I think it honestly makes him creepier. Not every abusive POS has a super deep voice that sounds menacing at all times. You see how terrified Astarion is of this man the entire game, how he's so desperate to be free of him and get away from him that he'll willingly kill 7000 souls, and when you meet Cazador... he's just some guy. With a reedy, high pitched voice. And then you have to think about how he comes across as goofy to us, but Astarion is STILL terrified of the man even when he's got an entire team of people armed to the teeth ready to back him up. It makes you think just how badly Cazador treated him, how deep the abuse went.

"You are a worm, lecturing a crow about to consume you." Yet another line that makes me wish turning into the slayer through dialog was an option as Durge here. I had the same feeling when he said "I don't speak to cattle!" when you back up Astarion in the confrontation.

Notably, when you come to Cazador without Astarion, he behaves much less aggressively, I would say calmly. Arrogant, yes, but he only gets angry if you get aggressive yourself.

I don't know if it was my emotional investment or what but he genuinely ended up being the most difficult fight in the game for me. My first attempt ended up with Minsc and Jaeheira being downed and my character being put to sleep, while Astarion was trapped in the ritual. He ascended, reducing Astarion to a pile of viscera. I had no idea that would happen if you didn't get him out of the ritual fast enough and it surprised me so much i like actually cried for 15 minutes even though i knew I could reload lol. It pissed me off that there was even a hypothetical universe where he won. I ended up having to bump down the difficulty and preload a bunch of summons to beat him. Not even the final boss gave me this much trouble.

This is so familiar to me! I've been playing since the game's release, and there was a bug in the first patches where I couldn't help Astarion free himself from the ritual circle. In doing so, I didn't think to leave him behind to bring him into battle later. Anyway, now I have something to remember, and it hurts 😢

I love how the game kind of caters the seriousness of the events based on how invested the player has shown themselves to be throughout the playthrough, with Cazador's dialogue being almost on par with a cartoon villain of the week if encountering him is entirely out of the blue. Compare that with how much darker the whole story is with all the buildup and extra exposition from Astarion.

And all because the developers went the simplification route and took the roles of Cazador and Astarion out of the story. Astarion is the only companion whose personal quest is not connected to the main plot for this reason. So 100% of the content with Cazador was removed and 1% of the cartoon villain was introduced, just like you said. Shame

I can tell you that in the last patch they even changed his facial animations and added information to the scripts. So the hope that the cut content will partially return is still there, although I don't believe in it just in case, so I won't be upset if it doesn't happen :(
