Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player\u2019s bugged epilogue leaves them \u201cfated to die\u201d Larian StudiosAn unfortunate glitch led to one Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player being \u201cfated to die\u201d in the role-playing game\u2019s epilogue. The release of Patch 5 added an epilogue to BG3 that plays once users reach the end of the game. Set six months after the Confront the Elder Brain quest, the sequence in question takes place at a gathering hosted by Withers. Thus far, BG3 players have scoured every inch of the finale, spotting cameos, neat D&D references, and much more. However, one user recently stumbled across a fail state that shines a light on some of the game\u2019s buggier qualities. But at least it makes for an interesting story. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player can\u2019t escape bugged epilogue Redditor and BG3 player Boomsta22 has shared the strange circumstances that led to their inability to complete the CRPG\u2019s epilogue. \u201cDying at the epilogue should be an achievement,\u201d the user wrote on Reddit, along with some choice words for Gale. Here\u2019s the rub, after wrapping the campaign, the user started the epilogue with the Warding Bond spell enabled. The spell lets players protect a companion from all incoming damage \u2013 the downside is that the spellcaster receives the same damage as their protected ally. Boomsta22 used the ward on Gale in the final mission, the same mission where the ally suffered Heat damage for seven turns. Unfortunately, the status effect remained intact, meaning the player is \u201cfated to die\u201d during Withers\u2019 celebratory gathering. Multiple people chimed in to say they hope Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 developers issue a fix for the bugged epilogue as soon as possible. The original poster is definitely holding out hope for such a patch. When asked if they\u2019re stuck because their character died, the Redditor replied, \u201cYeah, it\u2019s a soft lock.\u201d At the time of writing, it\u2019s unclear how widespread the issue is within the community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
