Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 subtle detail proves everyone loves Scratch Larian StudiosIt would be hard to find a Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 fan who dislikes Scratch, which extends to the characters in-universe, as demonstrated by a subtle detail in the camp. Having an adorable dog as a traveling companion is an easy way to win over fans. Dogmeat in the Fallout games is a great example, as many players will choose to keep him over the more demonstrably useful party members because he\u2019s such a good boy. The love for Scratch is also present among the party members in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 (unless you\u2019re a heartless monster who gets rid of him.) This is because Scratch gets his own little tent in the camp, one presumably raised by the party. What\u2019s funny about the tent is that not all of the humanoid party members get their own tent. Tav or the Dark Urge are usually stuck with a bedroll, while Halsin just kind of stands around (though he has the ability to grow fur, so it\u2019s not like he\u2019s going to be cold.) As discussed on the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Reddit, some fans didn\u2019t realize that was Scratch\u2019s tent. There are many tents and containers in the camp, and characters move around between rests, so it\u2019s easy to lose track of where everything is. Scratch has an easier time winning friends than most animal companions in video games due to the player\u2019s ability to communicate with him via magic. And even the most heartless Dark Urge player will struggle to harm him. With all of that banked goodwill, it\u2019s no surprise that Scratch has his own little tent. It\u2019s just a shame that the Mordenkainen\u2019s Magnificent Mansion spell from D&D 5e didn\u2019t make it into the game, as that\u2019s the only appropriate home for Scratch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
