Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is no doubt one of the most liberating RPGs of the generation. From blowing up an entire goblin camp to being as good (or evil) as you really want, the sky is essentially the limit in Larian Studios smash hit. It wouldn\u2019t be a DnD-inspired RPG, however, if you weren\u2019t able to romance the multiple companions you come to meet across your journey. This is particularly true in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, where your party members essentially fling themselves at you, begging for a more intimate relationship. Players may want to be a bit careful when pursuing a certain romance route in their playthrough of Baldur\u2019s Gate, however. As one player learned the hard way when they accidentally massacred Astarion whilst attempting to bed Lae\u2019Zel. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player murders Astarion in lovers\u2019 ritual Reddit user A-Very-Bland-Person recounted their tale of how the search for love resulted in death for Astarion. This player had decided to romance Lae\u2019Zel on this particular playthrough, which meant that when they went to bed one night, they were awoken by a wanting companion. \u201cCue Lae\u2019zel waking me up declaring how she can\u2019t stop thinking about me, and now wants to fight me before she f***s me. Hells yeah,\u201d they explained. Because of the ongoing fight, the rest of the party awoke to the sounds of battle, all except Astarion, who ended up resting soundly on the bed for a little too long. Only waking up at the absolute worst time. \u201cBefore I could even do anything, Lae\u2019zel\u2019s first instinct was to shoot me with her titanstring bow, aiming directly at me\u2026 and INSTANTLY downing Astarion, who just got up from bed and walked in front of me. He immediately collapses next to my bedroll. Holy f***ing sh**.\u201d Lae\u2019Zel nor the player seemed too upset about the unconscious High Elf next to their bedroll, however, as they immediately began progressing the romance route. \u201cOne Smite later, Lae\u2019zel quickly submits and wants me to ravage her. I push her down to have yet another round of fun\u2026 RIGHT NEXT TO ASTARION, WHO IS STILL INJURED.\u201d Unfortunately, Astarion was far too frail to survive the ordeal of lovemaking and perished right next to the lovers. \u201cHe did not survive the ordeal, couldn\u2019t handle a gith\u2019yanki riding her dragon riding him. I woke up to his corpse on my bloodstained bed sheets. How the hell do I explain this to Withers\u201d If anything, at least Astarion was a worthy sacrifice on the way to Lae\u2019Zel\u2019s heart, certainly he will be missed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player accidentally murders Astarion on the way to bedding Lae\u2019Zel Larian StudiosA Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player was shocked after accidentally murdering best boy thief Astarion whilst trying to progress with Lae\u2019Zel\u2019s romance route.
