Baldur's Gate 3's companion romances are looking like a game-changer.

"Have you ever considered the joys and pleasures of sexual congress with a wildshaped Druid?" propounded Baldur's Gate 3 lead writer Adam Smith alongside today's showcase."Because at Larian, we have, and ultimately landed on the side of giving the people what they want: tender, consensual romance with a man temporarily transformed into a grizzly bear." Alright man, you know what, sure.

The lead-up features a tasteful sprinkling of Austin Powers-esque scenery censorship when our duo gets in the buff, the second time we've witnessed this"king of all gags" in gaming in less than a month⁠—thank you,. There seem to be a myriad of ways the scene with Halsin can play out, including vanilla, bear mode, and"sorry, I think I've got a headache tonight," which can be opted into or out of at various points in the conversation.

At the final moment of ursine coitus, the camera cut away to a nearby squirrel watching from a tree branch⁠—the little guy dropped his little acorn, mouth agape like something out of Shrek, and let me tell you, I was hooting aloud. The earlier demoed date in downtown Baldur's Gate with tiefling barbarian companion Karlach Demonsbane was a little bit more familiar and tame, though she does seem to have some manner of hell-bomb surgically inserted in her torso. Just like the grizzly scene we saw earlier this sequence looks both impressively bespoke and well realized, but also open ended.

That's what has me excited for BG3's romance storylines, just like the wider game: this promise of über high production values coupled with a classic RPG sense of choice and reactivity. In the presentation, Larian's writers described how its romance subplots have a large number of permutations depending on how you approach them, the main quest, and side stories, with some companions even being open to polyamory and others wanting to stay exclusive.
