Baldur's Gate 3 is all fun and games until you realize that some of your companions disapprove of your attempts to be the nice guy
When I sat down to play Baldur’s Gate 3 for the first time, I expected it to feel the way so many other RPGs have felt for me over the years. That nice, comforting list of dialogue options ready-made for me, a socially anxious woman who loves a good set of guidelines when it comes to social interactions. Baldur’s Gate 3give you those options, but it also comes with in-depth social mechanics that took me and my anxiety by surprise.
Now, I’m torn between my own instincts and those of my party, between making the non-companion NPCs like me and courting the favor of my fellow adventurers. This game’s layered approach to social interactions and party relationships means that IThose Approve / Disapprove Reactions Give Me AnxietyIt turns out that most of the companions I’ve got on my team in Baldur’s Gate don’t appreciate my personal approach to adventuring, and it’s stressing me out.
How on earth am I supposed to make all of them happy when they disagree like this? Even if I carefully filter a response through how I think Astarion will feel about it, Shadowheart is bound to disapprove. Honestly, it’s a social anxiety nightmare, always knowing how the people around you feel about your choices and what you say.I wasn’t prepared for how failing checks in Baldur’s Gate 3 would make me feel. While in many other RPGs, you pick a reaction from the list, and that’s that.
