If you found the companions in Baldur’s Gate 3 to be a little too horny, well, it turns out that was due to a bug.

Relationships are a big part of the game’s appeal, but there’s no denying that companions come on a little too strong right from the off.

Speaking to TheGamer, game director Swen Vincke admitted that romances were bugged at the game’s launch and have since been tweaked.

    God I wish I loved this game as much as I love the headlines it makes, but my max CHA archfey warlock failing every other persuasion roll just left a bad taste in my mouth.

        Yes, but on the way I tripped over a black cat and fell under a ladder onto a mirror, which then broke.

      It took me til halfway through Act 2 to realize you’re supposed to click on roll bonuses like Guidance before rolling in order for them to be added to your total

        The fact that you didn’t know this means you were not getting the guidance bonuses from the deity.

        If that happened to me in tabletop, I’d probably go knock over some tables at their respective chapel

        (Take it as in-lore and with good humor lol)

        The save scumming is what pulled me out of the game. :( Felt like I was meta gaming and I didn’t want to do that in a D&D game.
