The boss of Baldur’s Gate 3 reveals that his own son is involved in the viral bear scandal. He wasn’t prepared for that. You can find out more details on MeinMMO.
What kind of game is this? Baldur’s Gate 3 is an RPG based on the famous “Dungeons & Dragons” rule set. In this game, you either play as a custom character or take on one of the predefined heroes. Baldur’s Gate 3 celebrated great success and took Steam by storm.
You can expect turn-based combat, countless hours of adventure, and plenty of freedom of choice. The players’ decisions influence the course of the story and can lead to different endings.
Romance and sex also play a large role in this game. The notorious bear sex scene caused quite a stir on social media.
Take a look at the buzz around the bear sex scandal:
Bear sex doesn’t let up
What’s going on? Larian Studio scored a huge marketing success with the reveal of a sex scene involving a brown bear.
The notorious scene has been circulating on social media for weeks, yet we just can’t seem to get rid of it. We’re still writing about bear sex. But the success also brings private downsides.
What does the boss of Baldur’s Gate 3 say? In an interview with PC Gamer, one of the founders behind Larian Studios, Swen Vincke, revealed that his 17-year-old son is being trolled with bear sex memes.
His son’s messages were literally flooded with images of bears. People relentlessly teased him about the saucy scene in the game. Vincke additionally explained that the scene is more of an example of how seriously the developers take the world and characters of Dungeons & Dragons.
My son comes to me and says: “Dad, people are sending me pictures of bears from everywhere. I wasn’t prepared for that. I could hear him say: ‘Yeah, I know!’ [to people who called him].
We wanted a scene that people would talk about, but we wanted to show that it’s a cinematic game with characters that have depth. The bear is obviously a druid, and he has a story. He has been around for hundreds of years. He has lived part of his life with bears, that’s where the bear thing comes from.
It’s interesting when you think about what it meant for him to live with bears, right? Because there are also sexy bears in the world.

Sex in video games is nothing new. Baldur’s Gate 3 takes romance to another level. Each character brings unique traits and desires. The desire-overwhelmed Halsin transforms into a bear, and his nature literally becomes wild. The bear within him awakens to a world of sensuality he has never known before.
Larian Studios proves that diversity, freedom of choice, surprising moments, and an authentic role-playing experience are at the top of the list. They also take unconventional paths, embracing NSFW content that unfolds in its unrestrained nature. The “loving bear” will undoubtedly linger in our thoughts for a long time.
Even MeinMMO editor-in-chief Leya just can’t get rid of that pesky bear. She can’t say anywhere that she plays a druid – without being smirked at: Within seconds, my favorite class in Baldur’s Gate 3 was ruined
