Hey everyone! I recently found out that if you reject Astarion during the party in Act 1, it prevents you from romancing him for the rest of the game. I’m currently nearing the end of Act 2 and I want to know if there are any hacks or mods that can help me reopen that romance option as I really want to pursue it. Any tips?

There’s this polyamory mod that might just do the trick! It allows you to change your relationship status, including setting Astarion as dating instead of partnered. Just a heads up though, you won’t get some of the earlier romance scenes, but it should work! Check out the mod link for more info.
You actually have a couple chances to romance Astarion! The first one is at the party, but you need his approval to be 20+ and you can’t be dating someone else. If you miss that, your second chance happens after the party as long as you meet certain criteria. Basically, you need to have let him bite you, not turned him down again, and avoided certain storyline milestones. If you’re still eligible, just return to Act 1’s Wilderness, chat him up, and then long rest to activate the scene. If you’re considering mods, be careful – some can mess things up!
Totally! That mod helped me out too; just be sure to follow the setup instructions. It worked fine for me!
