In fact, going alone can bring some pretty hilarious situations between your character and Withers. Withers is renowned for his judgemental attitude regarding the players\u2019 \u201cbosom companion\u201d and will quickly comment on the lack of one if the player hasn\u2019t managed to romance any of the companions. One way to combat this is to find romance, or alternatively, just never recruit any companions throughout the game. That\u2019s what one player managed to do, sharing a hilarious scene on the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Reddit which shows the final epic speech the player does before heading into fighting the Netherbrain, only there\u2019s only Withers to watch and silently judge. While many thought the situation was quite sad and did not want to go through the experience alone, others found the playthrough hilarious. As detailed in the comments, the poster attempted \u201ca rush playthrough to see some new forks. I think it topped out at like 47hrs\u201d which was likely why they never worked on the companions or bothered making friends. Thankfully though, Withers is there to cheer you on before you head into the final fight, but many came up with some hilarious words the popular character would have likely had for Tav. \u201cWe discussed thy lack of bosom companion, but truly thou walk alone. A pity, then, that I made so many snacks for those who were never to come\u201d joked one player, while another commented: \u201cThou walk the lonely risen road. the only thy have ever known\u201d \u2013 taking inspiration from a pretty catching song. However, others were quick to wonder what happens in the epilogue, to which one user revealed that, during the party \u201cWithers just tells you that you are low in number but not alone\u201d which feels hilariously sweet but a little unexpected for someone who has such an issue with you if you don\u2019t fall in love fast. Nevertheless, even though Withers is technically a God, he\u2019s still looking out for the Tav, even if they\u2019re looking to go through the game alone \u2013 and who knows, it may just inspire others to complete more solo runs so they too can see judgemental Withers in their final speech.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player reveals hilarious consequence of never recruiting companions Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 is all about going on an epic adventure with friends or companions \u2013 but it\u2019s far from a necessity.
