However, there are ways to avoid this while staying evil. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 allows players to play the game however they want, with many different options that can affect their playthrough. The amount of content in the game also further heightens its replayability, allowing for each playthrough to feel completely different \u2014 whether you\u2019re playing as a good Tav or Dark Urge. That said, despite the amount of freedom the game has, playing an evil character has one glaring issue when not done right. While you get to see things that won\u2019t normally happen during a good run, the chances of you being under-leveled are pretty high if you\u2019re playing as a murderhobo killing anyone in sight. Doing this not only locks you out of future quests or extra content from certain characters, but you\u2019ll also miss out on XP to level up. And most importantly, the more good-aligned companions will likely leave you. Luckily, some players have gathered in a Reddit thread to share their advice to avoid making this mistake when it comes to doing an evil playthrough in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3. One player wrote, \u201cIn this game, it\u2019s better to be self-serving than a mustache-twirling, capital-V Villain. Don\u2019t just choose the most evil option, choose the ones that give you the most personal benefit and you\u2019ll do plenty of evil things.\u201d Another user pointed out that making evil decisions as the \u201cbad guy\u201d can open up other doors instead of locking you out of \u201ctoo much content,\u201d as opposed to just straight-up killing everyone, which will cause problems in the long run. On the other hand, a different player mentioned that there are other ways to be evil in this game rather than \u201cmurder an entire town of people.\u201d This includes being a \u201csneaky, backstabbing d****\u201d who\u2019s only out for their own gain. Overall, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has taught us that whatever actions we take, there will always be consequences waiting to happen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 evil playthrough tips that won\u2019t lock you out of content Larian StudiosThe problem with an evil playthrough in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is missing out on certain quests and content from killing NPCs.
