One of the best elements of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is the variety of endings players can come across. Sure, you\u2019re ailment may be the same in every playthrough but, thanks to the unfathomable amount of different choices you can make in the game, there are tons of many possibilities to have a \u2018good\u2019 ending or a \u2018bad\u2019 ending. In one player\u2019s case, that \u2018bad\u2019 ending likely seems like a piece of cake compared to what they went through, labeling their conclusion the \u201cmost depressing ending ever\u201d and vowing to play as the Dark Urge in the next playthrough, perhaps to get sweet revenge on the Companion that broke their heart. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player beats game and loses girlfriend to NPC Sharing their tale on Reddit, one user explained how they chose to romance Lae\u2019Zel, getting to a point where the player \u201cthought we\u2019d settle down somewhere after we saved the world and her people.\u201d Then, tragedy struck, with the fan telling this story: \u201cI helped her free Orpheus because that\u2019s what a good boyfriend would do. It\u2019s between me and Orpheus having to become a mindflayer, I say \u2018no way! I\u2019m not becoming a mindflayer.\u2019 Then Lae\u2019Zel chimes in behind me \u2018no, Oprheus, you can\u2019t become a ghaik!\u2019 Sinking realization that Lae\u2019Zel would rather ME turn into a ghaik than this new guy she just met. I save the world as a tentacled freak because SOMEONE has to. After, I ask Lae\u2019Zel if we can still be together. She says, \u2018nah, you\u2019re a ghaik now\u2026never gonna work.\u2019 She then gets on a dragon and rides off with her new boyfriend.\u201d Naturally, after experiencing such a dramatic betrayal from Lae\u2019Zel, the player is devastated, explaining how it took \u201c150 hours to unlock a new ability: depression.\u201d It\u2019s certainly one of the more tragic endings to occur in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, and many other players feel for their plight. Nevertheless, it\u2019s been made clear the player won\u2019t make that mistake again, highlighting it made them \u201cready for my Dark Urge playthrough\u201d and regret not romancing Karlach, a fan favorite, especially in the latest Patch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player may have found the \u201cmost depressing\u201d ending ever Larian StudiosOne Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player thinks they\u2019ve found the \u201cmost depressing ending ever\u201d after romancing Lae\u2019Zel and being brutally shot down as the game concluded.
