Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Minsc makes fun of Tav\u2019s name if you do this one trick Larian StudiosTav is one of the most common names for Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 characters, but that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s immune to a little light bullying by Minsc, especially if you follow this one trick. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players can be extremely inventive with their character designs, builds, and choices, but many times, that stops when it comes to naming the design you crafted for hours on end, leaving many to name them the default title, Tav. Of course, there\u2019s nothing wrong with sticking to Tav, but you\u2019d better be prepared for a little bit of teasing by everyone\u2019s favorite hamster-loving companion, Minsc. Essentially, if you choose to accept Raphael\u2019s deal, you\u2019ll be able to speak to Minsc who will quickly berate you for your decision, explaining that Raphael will bind you by your name. What follows is a hilarious scene where Minsc is convinced you\u2019ve used a fake name, poking fun at Shadowheart, and then eventually mentioning Tav, before saying it was \u201csomething foolish\u201d like Tav. As soon as he suggests it, both Boo and Minsc add that it can\u2019t be Tav as \u201cthat is a stupid, stupid name.\u201d Poor Shadowheart is constantly the subject of ridicule regarding her name, despite the fact that it\u2019s not her real name either. However, it\u2019s Tav that Minsc really goes for, which shows just how willing Larian is to poke fun at both their own name idea and the fact that so many Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players end up opting for the simplest name ever, despite spending hours on their characters\u2019 aesthetics and build. Interestingly, Tav is actually quite an inventive name and isn\u2019t actually short for Tavern. Instead, it represents Larian\u2019s CEO, Swen Vinckle\u2019s dog Gustav. Unfortunately, Gustav passed before the game was released, so to honor him, Larian made the default character name Tav. If Minsc knew about the origins of that name, it\u2019s extremely unlikely the companion would make fun of the character\u2019s choices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
