One of the many strengths of Larian Studios\u2019 Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is the sheer amount of choices and variety the game offers players. You can quite literally play however you want, with the game accommodating for whatever strategy you might choose. This also reflects how you build your character, which really immerses you in Faerun. There\u2019s a specific character origin that greatly alters the way you play, and that\u2019s the Dark Urge. With no memory of your past, all you know is your thirst for murder and carnage. And while it\u2019s great to get into the fantasy of the character, sometimes resisting the urge to massacre your party might be a good thing, as discovered by one player. On their first-ever Dark Urge playthrough, Reddit user MisterSpikes had plans for Gale. As a \u201chot AF\u201d wood elf Paladin, they planned to romance the wizard from Waterdeep. Little did they know that the Dark Urge has a couple of bonus options when it comes to dialogue, one of which includes thinking about flat-out murdering your companions. So when they came across a dialogue option to \u201cFantasize about hacking off [Gale\u2019s] hand\u201d, they thought, \u201cWhat\u2019s the harm in a little fantasy?\u201d Of course, there was a lot of harm in that little fantasy, as that option results in your Tav viciously chopping off his hand in a murderous daze. As expected, Gale was not too pleased to have his hand dismembered, with Spikes no longer able to recruit the companion to their party. \u201cKinda raging about that, but it was pretty damn funny.\u201d At least one Redditor looked on the bright side, joking that Spikes has \u201cgot a part of him with you at all times at least.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Dark Urge runs can go awry if you get too in character Larian StudiosThe Dark Urge is just one of many character paths in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, but it might not be a good idea to get too into the role as it can make your runs go horribly wrong.
