It\u2019s too late to hit Alt+Tab. Your family already know how weird you are. Top-class storytelling and expansive combat system aside, one thing that Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans really love about the game is its eclectic roster of possible love interests. Even vampires and tieflings start to seem vanilla when compared to some of your in-game sweethearts. Thankfully, your beloved\u2019s virtual nature means you\u2019ll never have to worry about bringing them home to the parents. However, one poorly-timed over-the-shoulder glance at your gaming session could leave your family with an eyeful of the most intimate moments of your fictional dalliances. Yikes. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player\u2019s parent finds them in questionable Mind Flayer scene One player took to the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 subreddit to share an awkward account of their father walking in on them while their character was locked in a tender-tentacled moment with The Emperor. Understandably, their first reaction was a state of humiliated panic. As they put it, \u201cI think it\u2019s time for me to either die or move out. My relationship with my father is forever tainted.\u201d Turns out, they\u2019re not the only one who regrets not leaving a tie on the door handle while playing Baldur\u2019s Gate 3. A commenter on the thread admitted they had their mother interrupt them during their The Emperor scene too. Scenes with Karlach the big red babe are not immune to parental exposure either. In one case, the player\u2019s mother was oddly inquisitive about the whole affair: \u201cHer asking me \u201cWhy are you two naked? Why is she picking you up? What is she doing?\u201d and then going \u201cOh.\u201d and fleeing my room was equal parts embarrassing and hilarious.\u201d Of course, there\u2019s also the rarer case of role reversal, where parents wind up getting caught by their children. One father explained: \u201cI live in absolute horror of my kid walking in on a romance scene. He plays the game too, but he doesn\u2019t need to know that I would leave his mother for Bae\u2019zel [bae Lae\u2019zel] without a second thought.\u201d Despite OP\u2019s fears of having permanently damaged their father-daughter relationship, their dad was apparently \u201csuper chill\u201d about the whole situation in the end. So take that as full permission to let your freak flag fly, monster lovers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are disappointing their parents by romancing monsters Larian StudiosSorry to tell you this, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans.
