Baldur’s Gate 3’s Biggest Illusion of Choice is a Blessing in Diguise

Baldur’s Gate 3 is a game where choice matters, and for the most part, players have complete freedom in their choices. Players can walk into an important area and slaughter every NPC, including important quest givers or recurring characters, well before continuing the main story. There are companions players can reject or straight-up kill, sometimes independent of whether they play the Dark Urge in BG3. And each companion’s ultimately fate rests in the players’ hands either way.
