Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players have almost endless possibilities to cause chaos as they\u2019re provided with opportunities to proceed down vastly different gameplay paths. For this reason, among many others, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has emerged as not just one of the best games of the year but is now regarded as one of the \u201cbest RPGs ever made.\u201d In fact, the game\u2019s expansive and detail-rich nature has actually \u201cruined gaming\u201d for many players who are now feeling bored by other \u201cformulated\u201d games. Being spoiled for choice has led players down a wide range of possibilities in-game, but one player\u2019s disturbing path has even caught the attention of the game\u2019s director. One Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player on X (formerly known as Twitter) shared an in-game screenshot of their \u201cspecial box\u201d on the platform. The eerie box contained an awkwardly impressive collection of corpses that had been \u201ccollected\u201d since visiting the Emerald Grove in Act 1. The Emerald Grove is one of the very first locations that players visit on a Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 playthrough. Upon reaching the destination, players are presented with their first tough decision of either siding with the residents of Emerald Grove to defend their home or joining with the likes of the Goblins to attack and invade. Each decision has benefits and drawbacks, but this player\u2019s Dark Urge playthrough seemingly led them down the path of killing not just all of the Tieflings who resided in Emerald Grove but many of the Druids who lived there as well. Inside the player\u2019s \u201cspecial box\u201d were the heads of Tieflings Dammon, Mol, and Rolan, as well as Druids such as Kagha and Rath. Companions had been killed and collected too, with Shadowheart and Karlach among the many heads now residing in the \u201cspecial box.\u201d However, keen Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans were quick to point out that the player was missing one piece that would be more than fitting for the collection: Gale\u2019s hand. But it seems that had already been taken care of as the player noted that Gale\u2019s hand was in their pocket, and they were planning to put it in their \u201chand bag\u201d later. With more than 250,000 views on X, the player\u2019s remarkably awkward \u201cachievement\u201d has gone viral among the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 community. Among the many who reacted was Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Director Swen Vincke, who simply commented, \u201cNice,\u201d while re-tweeting the screenshot. With Larian Studios committing to \u201cpushing many boundaries\u201d in their \u201cnext big game,\u201d fans can rest assured that they\u2019ll have plenty of gameplay paths available to them in the years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 director reacts to player\u2019s disturbing \u201cspecial box\u201d Larian StudiosA Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player\u2019s creepy \u201cspecial box\u201d is turning heads among the community, even drawing a reaction from the game\u2019s director.
