Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 gives players an unprecedented number of branching paths they can take to complete the game, translating the true spirit of Dungeons &#038; Dragons into a video game. Impressively, the game really changes based on the player\u2019s choices, with various options and even companion reactions to incredibly specific circumstances. As an example, fans were amazed and amused when a player found an Astarion scene that only occurs if he dies under certain circumstances in an area that isn\u2019t even mandatory. Now, a fan going through Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s dialogue files has found what may be the saddest and rarest lines in the entire game. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 characters have heartbreaking reactions if Scratch dies As shared by Reddit user snowolf_, in the event that the dog Scratch dies and the player throws a ball in Camp, your Companions will respond. Each Companion has several lines that can play acknowledging the dog\u2019s absence. Most of these lines are fittingly tragic for such a horrific loss, with Minsc\u2019s \u201cScratch, come and\u2026 oh. How could I forget he was gone, Boo?\u201d and Shadowheart\u2019s \u201cIt\u2019s silly\u2026 part of me felt like Scratch might still show up for his ball\u201d standing out. Despite the awful situation, there are a couple of funny lines in there, such as Astarion saying \u201cDoes it have a sad squeak now? Is that even possible?\u201d in reference to the ball Scratch used to play with. Astarion\u2019s reactions in general come off as pretty cold, but they do hint at a secret affection towards the dog. Perhaps the best reaction is Minthara\u2019s \u201cEveryone assumes I killed the dog. I liked the dog,\u201d which is pretty appropriate for Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s evil Companion. Unsurprisingly, Scratch has become a fan-favorite character. The adorable dog can be found early on and, depending on how you interact with him, can join your Camp. Spending enough time with Scratch unlocks the option to summon him as a familiar. While Scratch will always come back if he falls as a familiar, there are other ways for him to die permanently. Killing Scratch is obviously something any reasonable Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player would want to avoid at all costs, even in an evil run. These lines show that Scratch means just as much to the party as he does to fans. This good boy is just so lovable that even cat lovers and callous vampires would miss him if he were gone.
