Baldur’s Gate 3 allows you to really do almost anything you want. That doesn’t mean you have to do it. A duo has now decided to take an extreme to the limit.
I really don’t know how I would manage to introduce the topic “gently”, so I’ll just throw you directly into the cold water: A user reported on X that he is killing all the NPCs he can find in Baldur’s Gate 3 with a friend in his current run.
They put the corpses in the box in their camp. Currently, they are almost at the end of Act 1 and even though no number is mentioned, the user states in his post: Whenever he opens the box, the game lags. So you can roughly imagine how full it must be.
As disturbing as it sounds, the two are not the only ones and not even the first to do this. Shortly after the release of the game, someone collected 584 corpses and stuffed them into a teddy. Only the dog was spared.
The post went viral and was picked up in several places, and even there, it was mentioned in comments from other users that they had done something similar. Only one detail does stand out as being even worse.
A portrait shows that the duo really holds nothing back
After the user showed a picture of his “corpse storage”, at least one person in the comments noticed that there are a few strange things to see. So … stranger than a box full of dead people.
On one hand, there’s the picture of Karlach, or more specifically: of her head. Karlach is actually a potential companion, but it is possible to cold-bloodedly murder her for a quest, which often happens to newcomers.
The second portrait shows Mirkon, the little tiefling boy, whom you are supposed to save from harpies. He has also ended up in the corpse box – though I can’t say for sure whether the player killed the boy himself. Because if you decide to attack the druid grove, the goblins will commit this atrocity for you. To all the children.
Would you ever consider trying such a run, or would you reload the game if you accidentally offended someone?
Actually, it’s considered absolutely unthinkable in video games to kill children or even harm them. Often they flee directly when in danger or are even invulnerable. Larian has decided to go against the norm: Baldur’s Gate 3 breaks one of the biggest taboos in gaming and hardly anyone really cares
