Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player finds Witcher Easter egg in a fitting location Larian Studios, CD Projekt REDA Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player has found an NPC who strongly resembles The Witcher protagonist Geralt of Rivia sitting exactly where fans would expect. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has plenty of nods to the fantasy franchises and games that inspired Larian Studios. From Final Fantasy XIV to Critical Role, players have found subtle Easter eggs to beloved games, shows, and more. Given the massive size of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, this is sure to continue for years to come. The latest find references a franchise plenty of Baldur\u2019s Gate fans will be familiar with. In Act 3, players can find none other than The Witcher\u2018s Geralt of Rivia \u2013 and he\u2019s in a location that will surprise nobody. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players can find Geralt of Rivia in a brothel As spotted by Reddit user IsonArt, there\u2019s an NPC in Act 3 that bears a strong resemblance to The Witcher\u2019s most famous monster hunter himself. With his long, partially pulled-back white hair and beard, the character is a pretty uncanny copy of the Geralt seen in CD Projekt Red\u2019s games. The character is holding a tankard and sitting in a brothel and, if that wasn\u2019t enough, commenters have noted there\u2019s a character who looks like Yennefer nearby. Geralt\u2019s sexuality has been an oft-discussed aspect of his character, especially in the games. Witchers are sometimes said to have increased libidos, and all of the mainline games have featured brothels, allowing Geralt to pay for a night of passion and complete quests. Act 3 of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 features a brothel that, like in The Witcher, allows players to progress questlines and engage in optional sex scenes. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has drawn plenty of other comparisons to The Witcher 3. Beyond being the third entries in their respective series, both are huge RPGs based on existing IP made by European developers that far transcended their well-received but niche predecessors. With all that in mind, putting Geralt in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 makes perfect sense. Placing him in a brothel makes it even clearer that the devs understood the assignment \u2013 which shouldn\u2019t be a surprise in a game where even your companion\u2019s underwear holds secrets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
