To explore every possible story track, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players have run through the game several times. Some may even begin to think that past playthroughs make certain decisions a walk in the park. That doesn\u2019t seem to be the case, though. At least that\u2019s what one fan realized upon revisiting the \u2018Save Orin\u2019s Victims\u2019 quest in a second playthrough. Their prior knowledge about the Orin arc encouraged them to explore a familiar route that resulted in unexpected and unfortunate consequences. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players warn against horrible Orin mistake On their second run of BG3\u2019s third act, a Reddit user encountered quite the surprise during the \u2018Save Orin\u2019s Victims\u2019 mission. They noted that because Lae\u2019zel wasn\u2019t around in their first playthrough, they witnessed Orin disguising herself as a child in need named Yenna. Despite having Lae\u2019zel on board the second time around, the Redditor let their previous experience with Orin\u2019s machinations guide their decisions. So when the former threatened Yenna\u2019s life, the player said, \u201c\u2026I basically encouraged Lae\u2019zel to cut her throat because \u2018Yeah, she\u2019s right, that IS a fake Yenna and she needs to be killed.&#8217;\u201d They couldn\u2019t have been more wrong. \u201cThat was the real Yenna, whose death I actively encouraged, while Lae\u2019zel, who I thought was real, has been kidnapped.\u201d Let this be a warning to all Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players \u2013 don\u2019t underestimate Orin under any circumstances. One person in the Reddit thread joked, \u201cThe game literally punished you for meta gaming lmaooo.\u201d Someone else chimed in to say that they\u2019ve played BG3 several times and have yet to see Yenna in peril. \u201cI\u2019m in my 5th playthrough, and Yenna has never been kidnapped,\u201d they wrote. At least this particular user now knows what not to do should their next run take a different course. Others noted that such an outcome is hardly a surprise because they\u2019re constantly finding something new. One such comment reads, \u201cOver a thousand hours in, still discovering new things.\u201d Players will likely continue to uncover unexpected possibilities as time goes on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player warns others after vital Orin mistake Larian StudiosOne Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fan learned the hard way that a mistake regarding Orin can be detrimental and has warned other players against following in their footsteps.
