With Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s story weaving plenty of twists and turns throughout, there\u2019s always the fear that things might not flow together. Some BG3 players had this feeling after the confrontation with Orin in the Temple of Bhaal. In particular, a Reddit user asked the community why Bhaal simply let the party leave unharmed after the fight was over. \u201cHe is no doubt pissed for what we did; he could\u2019ve ordered his remaining followers to attack our weakened party\u2026 But yet he just doesn\u2019t. Instead, he tells them to keep their blades sheathed and lets us walk out of his temple unharmed after all that. Why,\u201d the player asked. Some fans argued that this response is actually true to Bhaal\u2019s nature and will play out further down the line. \u201cBhaal likes slaughter. Including the slaughter of his followers. What\u2019s not to like about what you did in his temple,\u201d argued one player. Another noted that Bhaal may not have as much power as one might think. \u201cBhaal is only a quasi-deity now. He\u2019s lost almost all his power. That combined with the fact that gods aren\u2019t really allowed to interfere on Toril. His options are pretty limited.\u201d Interestingly, some members of the community think Withers may have been behind the easy escape. Should one be playing the Dark Urge route, and they refuse to accept Bhaal, Withers will directly interfere and even resurrect the player. He will say, \u201cSo rise, Challenger of Gods, and prepare for battle once more. Death will not claim thee whilst I endure.\u201d Fans in the comments loved this line of thinking, with one even labeling him \u201cchad Withers\u201d for always having the party\u2019s back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players praise \u201cchad Withers\u201d for helping to avoid plot hole Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 fans have praised Withers for helping to avoid what some players initially thought might have been a massive plot hole involving Bhaal.
