There are a lot of different ways to play Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, but one of the more interesting ones is the bespoke \u201cevil\u201d campaign that you can access if you play as the Dark Urge, or the Durge, as the community has affectionately named them. For this origin character, you\u2019re a Bhaalspawn filled with an unquenchable desire for murder, which leads to some very awkward conversations around the camp. Throughout the game, you\u2019ll be tempted to kill major characters, and sometimes, you can\u2019t resist the drive. However, some players have pointed out that it\u2019s a little too easy to stop the murderous urges from taking control, which is weird, seeing as it\u2019s the will of a god. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players brand Durge as too easy to resist One player on the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 subreddit highlighted this issue, saying: \u201cBesides Alfira, you can beat the game with your urge claiming zero lives (excluding everyone durge kills before the game of course). \u201cAll you need to do is spare Isobel and then pass some Wisdom checks, and avoid certain interactions with animals. It\u2019s way too easy to resist the influence of a god and a lifetime of murder! \u201cI think that resisting your urge should almost always require a save, and that each time you succeed a save, the next one will be harder, with the dc increase resetting every time you fail a save or choose to indulge the urge.\u201d Several players said the suggestion was a good one, with one comment suggesting: \u201cI would like a debuff or something! Durge talks a lot about headaches and nausea due to resisting (and the head trauma). It would be interesting to get some random debuffs related to it in order to give it more challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players explain why the Dark Urge needs to be even more evil Larian StudiosSeveral Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players have blasted the Dark Urge for being \u201ctoo easy\u201d to resist, arguing that it needs to be much harder to not murder people.
