That includes the devs at Larian Studios. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are a creative lot whether that\u2019s within the confines of the game or outside of it. They\u2019re adept at creating unique solutions to in-game encounters like throwing their dead mothers at a boss. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players have also invented the world\u2019s most sultry speedrunning category. One fan of the game who goes by u\/Jirkislo on Reddit has pushed this seemingly ubiquitous creativity to new heights by fusing major Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 characters with the one true god, Nicolas Cage. Unfortunately for them, Larian devs didn\u2019t appreciate this high art and they made that clear when someone shared the work on X. Sharing a small selection of these Nicolas Cage amalgams including fusions with fan favorites like Astarion and Karlach, X user kindofstrange qualified their feelings. \u201cI saw this so now you have to too,\u201d they captioned the post. Reactions were a little mixed with some Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans demanding a live-action film in which Nicolas Cage played every character. Others were mad that they were subjected to the images at all asking the player \u201chow dare you?\u201d. Larian was decidedly unimpressed and made their thoughts on the matter pretty clear. \u201cCould you not,\u201d they asked in a reply to the post. kindofstrange did set the record straight and credit u\/Jirkislo\u2019s Reddit post which featured way more of what people are calling \u2018Baldur\u2019s Cage\u2019. That\u2019s below for any die-hard Cageheads or folks who want to subject themselves to the madness. We\u2019re not too certain how we feel about Cage\u2019s face over our favorite goth girlfriend but his mug is oddly suited to some of the character models. Just don\u2019t tell Larian we said that. We have a reputation to uphold after all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 devs respond to absurd Nicolas Cage edit: \u201cCould you not\u201d Reddit: u\/JirkisloA Nicolas Cage-themed Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fan edit isn\u2019t everyone\u2019s cup of tea.
