Over the course of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, players will have to make plenty of choices that determine the final outcome. Among them are crucial decisions relating to the companions\u2019 storylines, such as whether to allow Shadowheart to embrace her goddess or what to do about Gale\u2019s explosive orb. These choices are generally not straightforward ones and come with good and bad consequences regardless of what you decide. Still, there\u2019s one particular Wyll choice that players say they hate having to make. Note, spoilers for Wyll\u2019s storyline to follow. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players want Wyll to choose what to do about Duke Ravengard and Mizora After trying to save Duke Ravengard, Wyll\u2019s father, for much of the game, players will finally have the chance to do so in Act 3. However, this quest comes with a pretty hard bargain. The Warlock\u2019s infernal patron Mizora presents Wyll with the choice of saving his father in exchange for his own soul. However, while the choice is technically presented to Wyll, it\u2019s the player who decides whether Wyll should break his pact and save himself or sacrifice his own soul to save his father. The fact that this is left entirely up to the player has rubbed some the wrong way. \u201cIt should be Wylls decision not the players,\u201d the original poster argued in the comments. \u201cit should be like the shadowheart scene with the night song you should be able to stay silent and let Will make the choice.\u201d In the Shadowheart example, the player can encourage Shadowheart to kill or spare the Nightsong, or they can allow her to make that decision for herself. Considering other major personal choices give the companions some agency, many players feel it doesn\u2019t really make sense that such an option isn\u2019t presented here. \u201cI think that this scene was written with the vision of Wyll the origin character as opposed to Wyll the companion and it just didn\u2019t translate as well to other MC points of view,\u201d suggested one commenter. Another joked that the player is Wyll\u2019s lawyer following an Act 2 conversation with Mizora. Ultimately, there is a way to save both Wyll and his father for those intent on sparing as many people as they can. However, the fact that Wyll doesn\u2019t really get to make a major choice that involves his and his father\u2019s fate is just another reason why many players feel that Wyll \u201cdeserved better\u201d than Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 gives him If you liked this, be sure to check out the rest of our Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 coverage, which includes the latest news, guides, and much more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players hate having to make a major Wyll decision Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are frustrated with one major decision in the game that requires them to make a choice regarding the fates of Wyll and his father.
