Baldur's Gate 3's Best Quest Unanimously Praised By Gamers

Joshua Duckworth — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 16:00:16 GMT

While no game is without its detractors, Baldur's Gate 3 is probably the biggest "10/10 masterpiece" since the 2020s began, and there's a devil on my shoulder, rallying the cry that no game is perfect, mandating I point out that Baldur's Gate 3 Act 3 is often criticized by the playerbase. Doesn't mean it's not a masterpiece. Either way, that just goes to show how "agreeing" on anything isn't something gamers are exactly known for.

When Penguin Random House announced a book publishing line based on the characters and events of Baldur's Gate 3, a singular title was the announcement's clear headliner. Baldur's Gate 3: Astarion is a new dark fantasy novel by New York Times bestselling author T. Kingfisher. This novel is accompanied by other imminent releases for the Baldur's Gate 3 line, including a cookbook and an official coloring book. However, early internet anticipation for this new line is almost exclusively reserved for the expansion of the pale elf's storyline.

Where Baldur's Gate 3 Gets Player Agency vs. Narrative Control Right (and Wrong)

Carla Carmona — Tue, 14 Apr 2026 14:30:15 GMT

Baldur's Gate 3 is the kind of game that feels almost impossible in scope. It's a game that trusts players to make decisions that matter and then actually follows through on them. Every time I boot it up, I'm reminded of how rare that is. This is a game that hands over its story and says, "Go ahead. Break it. Shape it. Make it yours."

In Baldur’s Gate’s Act 1, players can stumble upon a somewhat strange situation just outside the Blighted Village, an early-game destination featuring numerous areas to explore and secrets to discover. Once the player has made their way through the Village, they should ascend a small staircase located at the northwest corner outside the village.

Modders Are Recreating Baldur’s Gate 1 in Baldur’s Gate 3

Baldur's Gate 3 players are going to get a comprehensive remake of Baldur's Gate 1 as a mod, though not anytime soon, according to the team of volunteers that's taken up the project. Widely regarded as one of the best RPGs of all time, Baldur's Gate 3might not have the sheer modding capabilities of a first-party sandbox Bethesda RPG like Skyrim, but that isn't stopping modders from attempting one of the most complex jobs they could possibly have taken up.

Baldur’s Gate 3’s Infernal Rapier Turns One Classic D&D Playstyle on Its Head

For most of Baldur’s Gate 3, the divide between melee fighters and spellcasters can’t be wider because of its connection to tabletop rules. Melee warriors rely on Strength or Dexterity to deal damage with weapons, while spellcasters channel their magic through Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma. These roles usually stay in their own lanes. A wizard might carry a dagger or swing a staff in a pinch, but it rarely forms the core of their plans.

Baldur's Gate 3's Githyanki Egg is the Ultimate Litmus Test

One of my favorite things about Baldur's Gate 3 is how often it lets consequences happen without fanfare. For example, entire characters can slip through the cracks if players zig where the game expected a zag. Some NPCs will never reappear, questlines will simply stop, and the journal will shrug in response. In a game obsessed with reactivity, silence is its own unique form of consequence.
