Despite a single playthrough easily lasting over 100 hours, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has become popular among streamers. This is helped by its massive character creator that people get lost in, copious amounts of adult content to react to, and the chaotic events that can result from tying everything to dice rolls. Many members of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s cast have streamed the game, giving fans their unique insight into the production process. Most of these livestreams are still ongoing as of the time of writing, with many still making their way through Act I due to the sheer length of the story. It\u2019s rare for people outside the gaming space to stream Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, but two prominent actors known for their fantasy roles have gone on an unexpected journey into the Forgotten Realms. Frodo &#038; Sam\u2019s actors have played Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 on stream A new video on the official Larian Studios YouTube channel recorded shortly after Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 swept The Game Awards features famed The Lord of the Rings movie actors Elijah Wood and Sean Astin playing the game for the first time. While Wood and Astin may have played the heroic Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee in The Lord of the Rings movies, they took the chance to play villains in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3. Wood played as a Halfling with The Dark Urge Origin, kind of like if Frodo had succumbed to the power of the One Ring. During their brief playthrough, Wood and Astin committed some horrific acts, such as killing a squirrel and letting the Deep Gnome attached to the windmill fly off to his fate. Astin also managed to kill another giant spider, making him two for two. The pair even had to deal with the Necromancy of Thay tome, pitting them against another mind-controlling artifact. Luckily, one old magic book isn\u2019t exactly equivalent to the One Ring with Sauron\u2019s might in it, so they were able to continue their journey without needing any volcano detours. It\u2019s a shame that Wood and Astin only played a small part of the game, as a full stream where they complete Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 would be awesome to behold. Get Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan on board as well, so they can batter the Absolute in the same way they did Sauron.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 reunites Frodo &#038; Sam actors for chaotic fantasy adventure Larian StudiosThe Lord of the Rings actors Elijah Wood and Sean Astin have played Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, embarking on a chaotic new fantasy adventure.
