To some players, doing a Dark Urge run can be incredibly hard. Not only because there are so many vile choices throughout the game but you\u2019ll also have to be ready to say your goodbyes to your companions and NPCs you\u2019d normally help. For one player, however, all these things ended up happening in their run despite wanting to do an \u201cangst-ridden hero type play through.\u201d Sharing their story in a Reddit thread, it all started when they returned home after getting surgery. But instead of \u201cfalling into a fatigue and drug-induced coma, as one should,\u201d they decided to play Baldur\u2019s Gate 3. \u201cThis morning, I woke up to my TV on and my controller sitting oh so innocently by my pillow,\u201d they continued. \u201c\u2018Huh?\u2019 I think. \u2018Okay. So, hmm!\u2019 I click my lovely Roku screen saver away to show my Steam Deck input screen, wake-up my deck and see BG3 as my last played game. Nothing unsurprising.\u201d And lo and behold, after clicking on Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 and hitting continue on the game, they were greeted with a mass massacre \u2014 much to their surprise. This includes the entire grove, goblins, and even companions being \u201cdead or just gone.\u201d Alas, with everything in shambles, they mentioned: \u201cWell, I guess this gets to be my evil playthrough now.\u201d Following this, other players in the comments were stunned, though many of them couldn\u2019t help but point out how the user had just accidentally become the literal Dark Urge, given the circumstances. \u201cYou\u2019re just like The Dark Urge; you blacked out and murdered everyone around you and have no idea why or how. +1 for RL Durge RP,\u201d praised one user. A different user wrote, \u201cThis is the ultimate Dark Urge experience, incredible.\u201d Meanwhile, another concerned player said, \u201cWell, first off, I hope the surgery went well and you\u2019re recovering fine. Second, please take it down a notch with the Durge roleplay; I\u2019m scared.\u201d \u201cYou literally got the Dark Urge IRL,\u201d one chimed in. While playing an evil run may not be everyone\u2019s cup of tea, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Patch 7 is going to be big for Dark Urge playthroughs. For those who are curious, Larian has already teased two new endings so far, one of them being extremely dark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player accidentally became \u201cDark Urge IRL\u201d while under anesthesia Larian StudiosOne Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player has learned the hard way not to pick up the game right after getting a surgery.
