Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players call out \u201cimmersion-breaking\u201d companion dialogue Larian StudiosThese poorly timed lines from Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 companion dialogue are leaving players feeling a tad confused. Even outside of cutscenes, your companions in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 come out with a whole host of story-building dialogue. Whether it\u2019s a battle cry during the heat of combat or some light-hearted travel banter, the lines they come out with can reveal a whole lot about their motivations and backgrounds. However, with such a complex branching narrative, some parts of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s 2 million-word script can lose its relevancy. When delivered out of place, these sections can lose their effectiveness or even be actively detrimental to the player\u2019s experience. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players complain about out-of-character lines A Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player shared their disappointment at an out-of-character line of dialogue that continually appeared in their playthrough. Explaining their situation to fellow players on the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 subreddit, they said that they wished Lae\u2019zel would stop saying \u201cVlaakith\u2019s will be done\u201d during combat once she decides to turn against her Queen. Turns out, Lae\u2019zel isn\u2019t the only companion with complicated feelings around a figure they previously revered. Even late in the game, players noticed Shadowheart praising Shar, complaining about her curse, or fidgeting with the Artefact at camp. As a commenter pointed out, the latter is especially strange given the Artefact is no longer in her inventory. Similarly, Minthara\u2019s internal struggle is epitomized in her yelling \u201cIn the name of the Absolute\u201d as she slays hoards of Absolutists. While Gale struggles with feeling spurned by Mystra even before the events of the game, his choice to distance himself from his Goddess in Act 3 doesn\u2019t stop him from delivering phrases of worship. While these leftover hypocritical lines are most likely just due to an oversight, players have lightheartedly pointed out that \u201ceven reformed atheists yell \u2018god damn\u2019 out of habit.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
