I chose loyalty over a spicy offer in Baldur’s Gate 3—and it was it’s own reward

I’m a simple man. I weigh rewards above morality in my side quests, and I love a good pixelated goth GF as much as the next gamer. In fact, I would say the only thing more important than scoring the best loot possible is doing whatever it takes to secure a shot with the resident emo thirst traps of Baldur’s Gate 3. I understand the tenets of the game. I understand that there are things that must always be done—opportunities that must be taken—and yet…

Forgive me, my fellow Baldurians, for I have sinned. You may be thinking this confession has to do with Minthara. She is the quintessential evil goth GF, after all, but no—when push came to shove, I had no problem slaughtering the innocent men, women, and children of Druid’s Grove to make Minthara happy. This transgression came later on in the game, and it came with no reward—no necessity to justify my actions. How have I sinned, exactly? Simply put, I’ve gone soft. I’ve broken the cardinal rule that all opportunities for scandal must be capitalized on in Baldur’s Gate 3. I’ve had my heart and desire for chaos melted by the hottest thing this side of Avernus—Karlach.
