Baldur’s Gate 3 has undoubtedly captured the hearts of many players. However, the game also struggles with performance issues, particularly in Act 3. Some players are now resorting to morally questionable methods to fix their FPS problems. MeinMMO reveals what is behind this.
What is the problem? In the bustling city of Baldur’s Gate, the framerate often drops drastically. The main cause of this is the enormous number of NPCs bustling around the city, overwhelming the game.
Desperate players have now found an immoral solution to regain control of their FPS.
Should I kill everyone?
What are the players suggesting? An unconventional solution is currently being hotly debated on Reddit , raising questions not only about performance but also about morality. The player Gerael posed the question on Reddit whether it makes sense to just kill all the inhabitants of Baldur’s Gate to solve the performance problem – and he received surprisingly much support.
Some players also suggest not finishing Baldur’s Gate 3 for the time being and instead waiting due to the performance issues. Instead of the usual advice, such as lowering graphics settings, some players seem to opt for mass murder as the ultimate solution to their FPS worries:
- Sir_Daxus is excited about the creative idea:
That’s a completely warped idea. Do it.
- Another player named starsborn humorously contemplated how the companions in the game might react to this immoral method:
Wyll has left the group.
This comment is not unrealistic at all. Your companions certainly have moral standpoints and may not just stand by while indiscriminate killing occurs. Furthermore, it will definitely not be an easy task to kill all the inhabitants of the city.
If you embark on this quirky path and slaughter the city’s population, you may have to forego some quests, valuable items, and gold that you might have still needed. Moreover, the city will then be littered with corpses that you somehow need to dispose of – and that can present its own challenge.
Overall, this creative solution shows how players, in their desperation to cope with the FPS problems in Baldur’s Gate 3, are willing to push the boundaries of the game. In the end, it’s up to you whether to give in to your urge for mass murder or leave the inhabitants of Baldur’s Gate in peace. At the very least, with the brutal solution, your FPS might improve a little.
