Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s trusty set of companion characters all have a hidden approval rating based on the decisions you make in the game. Carefully leveraging their approval or disapproval is the key to getting your desired romances and forging relationships in general. Of course, some rewards are just too tempting and there are certain disapprovals that players will take every time. If you\u2019re as desperate for approval as we are, however, it can be super frustrating to make your favorites mad, especially when it makes no sense. On the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Subreddit, players have shared some of the more frustrating and confusing instances in which companions disapprove of your actions. Unsurprisingly, Karlach and Shadowheart are the two biggest offenders. While certain ploys in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 are obvious in their consequences, like Lae\u2019zel approving pretty much any time you elect to punch someone, others can be confusing. \u201cFor me, it\u2019s definitely Karlach disapproving of you siding with the Duergar rebels against Nere,\u201d a player began in the thread. \u201cOnly moments earlier she approves of you confronting Nere as well.\u201d It should be noted that Karlach isn\u2019t a big fan of slavers or evildoers in general. Still, if that\u2019s the case, she shouldn\u2019t have any issues with you rebelling against them. Our favorite Tiefling is an enigma to be sure but she\u2019s not the only confusing companion. \u201cHey, so this zombie looking a** necromancer seems dangerous, we better play along with his plan for now,\u201d another user wrote doing their best Shadowheart impression. They were unfortunately met with disapproval from the followers of Shar when they did actually go along with Balthazar. There\u2019s certainly a lot to keep in mind when navigating Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s plethora of decisions. Keep these instances in mind when you\u2019re attempting to romance muscle mommy Karlach or goth girl Shadowheart.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s inconsistent companion disapprovals baffle players Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s iconic companions can be fickle with what actions they disapprove of and their inconsistency is starting to boggle the minds of players.
