Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 x Pikmin crossover dubbed \u201cgreatest piece of art\u201d Nintendo\/Larian StudiosA bizarre crossover artwork between a vampire from Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 and a yellow Pikmin has led to adoration from fans worldwide. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is an RPG with incredibly adult content, including extremely bloody combat and infamous scenes involving bears. Pikmin is a kid-friendly series about working with little plant people to help an astronaut go back to their planet. They have very little in common. The lack of connection between franchises has done little to deter fan artists in the past, with pretty much every series interacting with each other on websites like DeviantArt. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has spawned a ridiculous amount of fanart since it entered Early Access and continues to generate more daily. Fans can\u2019t get enough of putting the tadpole-infected adventurers in wacky situations and in contact with characters from other franchises. Astarion holding a yellow Pikmin is a Renaissance masterpiece A Twitter\/X user called SolidCyndaquil shared a commission they made depicting Astarion from Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 holding a yellow Pikmin in the style of \u201cThe Lost Lamb\u201d by Del Parson, which shows Jesus Christ holding a lamb. The picture garnered over a million views in two days, with fans rushing to show their appreciation of the vampire adventurer holding the oddly-proportioned Pikmin. \u201cThis is the greatest piece of art ever i\u2019ve legitimately been mesmerized by this all night,\u201d one user wrote, while another said, \u201cI was gonna say \u2018this looks like a rennaisance painting\u2019. lo and behold, Jesus f\u2014-g Christ.\u201d \u201cAI can\u2019t do this. The passion and soul in this. A part of you is forever ingrained in this.\u201d one user said, referring to the soulless machine that is AI art used for corporate purposes. Another user agreed, saying \u201cThis is the reason AI art will never be real art.\u201d Pikmin don\u2019t talk, so we don\u2019t know how anyone involved with the production of the games would respond to the art. Astarion, however, never shuts up, so fans should make his voice actor, Neil Newbon, aware of the holy artwork depicting his iconic character and his fatherly embrace with a Pikmin. If Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 had come out a few years later, then this crossover could have potentially happened in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Alas, the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 x Pikmin dream match will have to remain in the realm of fanworks for the time being.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
