Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s rare ending for boar proves Larian thought of everything Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3 players have found a rare line of dialogue that reveals a happy ending for Tusk, a boar in the Emerald Grove. Even after a year, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players are still uncovering secrets in Larian Studios\u2019 award-winning game. One of these is a happy ending for, of all things, an animal players can encounter in Act 1. Using Speak with Animals to communicate with Tusk reveals that Halsin promised to find this frustrated boar a mate. However, the archdruid disappeared before he could play matchmaker to some swine. Fortunately for those who were concerned about Tusk\u2019s wellbeing and happiness, there is a way to give him a good ending that actually debunks a fan theory \u2013 though it won\u2019t be easy. Shadowheart and Halsin can help BG3 players give Tusk a good ending As shared by Reddit user thepwippippapers, it\u2019s possible to help Tusk out, though you\u2019ll need to make some specific decisions in the game to unlock what the poster calls \u201cTusk\u2019s good ending.\u201d This involves keeping Shadowheart\u2019s parents alive and romancing Halsin without being in a relationship with someone else. If you do this, Shadowheart will \u201ctell you her dad jokes, including the one about the boar.\u201d You\u2019ll also need to talk to Halsin twice during the epilogue party so you can hear his \u201cterrible bear puns.\u201d From there, you\u2019ll have the option to share Shadowheart\u2019s bad joke with him, which reminds him of something important he forgot to do: finding a mate for Tusk. It\u2019s good news for the poor neglected boar, though, as \u201che\u2019ll say that he\u2019ll immediately write to the grove, implying that Tusk will no longer remain mateless.\u201d In addition to being a good ending for Tusk, it also debunks the theory that the boar\u2019s intended was the Exsanguinated Boar that players can find dead in Act 1, courtesy of Astarion. The revelation that it\u2019s possible to give Tusk a happy ending \u2013 and through such non-obvious means \u2013 has reminded fans just how deep the game is. As one player said, \u201cNo matter what I do; no matter how much I play this game, I will never see all of it.\u201d Another summed it up rather nicely, saying \u201cthat\u2019s the beauty of a well-designed game. you know you\u2019ll never see it all but man you want to.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
