Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Sussur weapons are locking players out of cutscenes Larian StudiosBaldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Sussur weapons are a handy addition to your arsenal that you can get relatively early in the game if you\u2019re brave. Unfortunately, their enchanted effect is preventing certain cutscenes from triggering. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is all about the rules. It sounds weird to say that about a game with this much freedom but it\u2019s the D&D-inspired logic that makes it work. It\u2019s how you get things like God-like Halflings and Owlbear nukes. These hard-coded rules also apply to Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s cutscenes. So, for example, if you polymorph the Emperor prior to a cinematic, you better believe the Emperor is going to look like a nightmarish chimera in that cinematic. Unfortunately, while these rules can offer instances for hilarity, sometimes Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 takes them a bit too seriously. Reddit user u\/NewSheepherder2215 found this out the hard way when the Sussur weapon they used prevented a cutscene from triggering. You see the Sussur weapons you get from completing the Finish the Masterwork Weapon quest all Silence targets on hit. If you smack an important character with one during combat, they can\u2019t talk, and if they can\u2019t talk, you can\u2019t interact with them. That\u2019s how seriously Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 takes its rules and it\u2019s stopped u\/NewSheepherder2215 from speaking with the dastardly Raphael and continuing that part of their tale. We get it too, we\u2019d also want to shut him up, but it\u2019s not in your best interest to use a Sussur weapon on him. It seems like this isn\u2019t a unique situation either. If you engage any character that appears in a cutscene after combat and Silence them, they won\u2019t trigger their follow-up event. \u201cI had a similar situation with Ethel. I was trying to get her offer but the conversation wouldn\u2019t start,\u201d one player responded to u\/NewSheepherder2215\u2019s predicament. \u201cEventually discovered it was because she was silenced by my Sussur weapon.\u201d So, think twice before you bring one of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Sussur weapons to an important encounter. It might hold up your quest or stop you from getting info on what to do next. It seems like it\u2019s impossible to prepare for every situation that Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 will throw at you, but we\u2019ve got some guides that might help with the basics.
