When you\u2019re not busy fighting the Spider matriarch, saving prisoners from an underwater prison, or taking down the big bad \u2013 Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s romance content mostly does the job of keeping your Tav occupied in their camp. While they help spice things up during your playthrough, it\u2019s no secret that not all companions\u2019 romances are getting equal treatment in the eyes of the community. Some players couldn\u2019t help but point out that Minthara\u2019s romance should be \u2018fixed\u2019, as mentioned in a Reddit thread. The thing with Minthara is that while you can still romance her as a good character, one specific romance scene can only be triggered if you\u2019re doing an evil playthrough. With her overall romance scenes not being quite as numerous many as other companions, the entire experience has left some players underwhelmed. One player argued that \u201cshe, in general, makes sense only in an evil run.\u201d They added, \u201cI understand Larian\u2019s wish to please fans, but I tried to recruit her in \u2018normal\u2019 run and barely had any approval from her and no interesting content because of that. I don\u2019t get the hype with Minthara in good runs.\u201d Another Reddit user claimed that \u201cthere was just not a lot of additional content with her\u201d, and she was also \u201cbugged half the time.\u201d According to the user, even after a major story event, she would repeat the same line about the \u201cEmperor being a useful ally.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s almost non-existent. You can only get an actual scene together with her if you slay the grove; there\u2019s no Act 2 or 3 content to speak of. In Act 3, the romance consists of a single conversation where you decide to date, and that\u2019s it,\u201d agreed another user before comparing her with Lae\u2019Zel, who has multiple romance scenes or unique conversations throughout Act 1 until Act 3. \u201cReal, she\u2019s literally my second favorite, but I don\u2019t like being evil. If you aren\u2019t evil, you literally don\u2019t get a single romance scene. Even if you do the evil route, you get a single scene in Act One, and that\u2019s it,\u201d another player chimed in. So far, we know Patch 7 will be bringing several improvements, so there might be a chance something new gets added along the way for the character \u2013 especially since the next patch is going to be big for evil players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players beg Larian to fix companion romance that\u2019s \u201calmost nonexistent\u201d Larian StudiosSome Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are finding the experience of romancing one particular companion to be \u201calmost nonexistent\u201d due to the lack of unique scenes and accompanying dialogue.
