Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players divided over which companion is favored by the devs Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are debating who Larian\u2019s most favored companion is in the game, but not all agree on the same person. One of the best elements of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is its companions. They provide the majority of the story and allow you to fall in love, fight, and even save each other\u2019s lives on occasion. Thanks to that and their unforgettable personalities, Companions are an intrinsic feature in BG3. However, not all these characters were created equally, with many fans in the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 community arguing that certain companions have been undeniably favored over others. Although, not all players agree on the same person. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans are split over who\u2019s most favored Sharing their thoughts on Reddit, one user stated: \u201cDon\u2019t you dare tell me he\u2019s not favored,\u201d attaching an image of what many would assume are the quest lengths represented in book form. Standing as the thickest book is Astarion\u2019s quest, The Pale Elf, showing they feel Astarion is the most favored in the game. Plenty of the community agreed with the poster\u2019s thoughts, explaining that \u201cit is remarkable that Astarion has so much when you consider he doesn\u2019t have any ties to the main plot.\u201d However, others argued that Astarion wasn\u2019t the only companion with a larger questline, highlighting how \u201cShadowheart, Lae\u2019zel, and Astarion definitely have the most game content, but I feel like Shadowheart and Lae\u2019zel take the top spots as favorite just for how intertwined with the main plot they are.\u201d Naturally, if a companion was to be favored by the developers, then they\u2019d likely be integral to the plot, meaning Shadowheart or Lae\u2019zel could be at least an honorable mention. One user explained why Astarion may have had a longer questline, highlighting how it wasn\u2019t necessarily because he was favored, but because he\u2019s a longer-standing companion: \u201cKarlach was added a year before release, and Wyll was completely revamped compared to his [early access] version. Astarion was there from the beginning and remained mostly unchanged. So yeah, makes sense his content is more developed and stable.\u201d Despite many agreeing with the poster, one sentiment rings true,\u201d \u201cShadowheart and lae\u2019zel have way more content than any of the rest of them.\u201d It\u2019s clear that, as far as the community feels, it\u2019s actually Shadowheart or Lae\u2019zel who\u2019s the most favored companion in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, with a storyline integral to the plot, and many finding their quests to be the longest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
