Romance is a key aspect of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, with tons of fans looking to fall in love with the various companions that surround the game\u2019s expansive storyline. In fact, it\u2019s such a pivotal aspect, that many often joke that Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is a dating simulator more than an open-world RPG. Nevertheless, while some are interested in romancing multiple companions, others feel a little more exclusive, and are now calling for some major dialogue changes to help avoid any awkwardness once they\u2019ve found \u2018the one\u2019. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players want new taken dialogue options Sharing their idea on Reddit, one user asked the community: \u201cWhy [is there] no option to tell characters you\u2019re already taken?\u201d Usually, when players romance one companion, the others will continue to flirt and advance on the Tav, which can make rejecting them pretty awkward, as well as a little hurtful. \u201cOne thing I was dumbfounded by was why the game doesn\u2019t just let you tell propositioners that you\u2019re already dating someone else,\u201d wrote the player, going on to joke: \u201cLike Wyll, my mate, I respect you for shooting your shot but I\u2019m already with Shadowheart, sorry!\u201d Naturally, those rejections can feel a little uncomfortable, with many players calling for this change to be implemented in an upcoming update. \u201cEven just a generic, \u201cno thanks, I have my heart set on another\u201d where they don\u2019t get the saddest face on Faerun over it\u201d commented one user, revealing just how hard it can be to make these well-written companions sad. Thankfully, there are a few companions that you can tell, with Minthara and Halsing being an example: \u201cHalsin is one of the few you *can* tell you are already in a relationship, and can then further specify that you are not interested in jeopardizing said relationship.\u201d However, this doesn\u2019t apply to all companions and will not save you from the wrath of Wyll\u2019s puppy dog eyes. There\u2019s no word on whether this will eventually be added but with the promised additions in Patch 6, it\u2019s certainly not impossible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players call for key romance changes to stop awkward rejections Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are calling for new dialogue options to help them eliminate any awkward companion rejections.
