Baldur’s Gate 3 places a high value on romances. A player desperately wanted to charm their companions but ended up getting rejected 4 times in one night instead. More about the frustrating story.
What’s the deal with romance in Baldur’s Gate 3?
- In Baldur’s Gate 3, players can enter into romantic and sexual relationships with their companions.
- One companion is particularly popular among players – the hot tiefling barbarian Karlach.
- The sex scenes are modeled after Hollywood movies with so-called intimacy coordinators.
But it’s not that easy to get your companions into bed. You need to gather enough recognition from them and address their needs.
According to Larian Studios, the heartbreaker Astarion has already rejected over 100,000 players. No problem, then one can try their luck with Shadowheart or Gale instead. However, this method caused a lot of frustration for one player because he just couldn’t catch a break.
“Four rejections in one evening, just like in real life”
What happened to this player? The user Unlucky_Lifeguard_81 lives up to their name. A brave hero with a heart yearning for romance and affection. They shared a meme video on Reddit, in which their character got rejected 4 times in a single night – their character just couldn’t catch a break.
The gaze of their Drow fell on the graceful Wyll, who fuels the fantasies of many players. They hoped for a dance of passion, but were crushed by his words: “I’m afraid I’m firmly grounded tonight.” – Ouch.
Undeterred, but already plagued by doubts, Unlucky_Lifeguard made the next attempt. This time with Shadowheart, the enchanting cleric. But even here their Drow encountered an invisible barrier: “You will have to do much more legwork before I’m ready for some hip work,” she explained – hopes shattered once again.
We have embedded the Reddit clip from Unlucky_Lifeguard_81 here:
Determined not to bury the dreams of a hot night, Unlucky_Lifeguard cast their eyes on Gale. But he also had no answers for the Drow’s longing: “You stink too much,” he said to her.
Then Unlucky_Lifeguard tried to grasp the last straw of hope. Halsin, the wise druid, was their last target. But fate mocked their efforts: “Go and enjoy the wine before it runs out. There are plenty of thirsty people out there,” Halsin threw at the Drow.
Thus ended the long frustrating evening for this player – an incredible 4 rejections in one night. Hopefully, their character does not give up the search for affection.
