If you've spent time in the online fandom space for Baldur's Gate 3, you may have heard the name "Evelyn" pop up occasionally. Anyone who has played the game will have likely found themselves scratching their heads at the mention of a character who doesn't appear to exist. With a considerable amount of cosplays and fanworks dedicated to this character, it's understandable that you may be a little confused. 1cw1c

It's old news that you can play Baldur's Gate 3 for hours on end and still discover new content with each playthrough, but that doesn't stop it from being a pleasant surprise when you actually do come across something you've never seen before. A lot of minor characters and encounters have a surprising amount of lore behind them, and even the smallest items can have quite the story behind them. Many early fights which players may feel were only included to recreate the feeling of a random encounter are actually very well thought-out.

Camping within the Shadow Cursed Lands of Baldur's Gate 3, players will find a mysterious man known as He Who Was. He's a tattooed and pale elf accompanied by a white raven, and he seeks the player's help in bringing a dead soul to justice. He wants to hold an innkeeper able for the betrayal of her friends and seeks evidence of her crime with which to do so.

Much to the dismay of fans who fell in love with Larian's work, it's nearly impossible that a sequel to Baldur's Gate 3 will ever come from the same studio. However, Baldur's Gate is a long-running franchise, and it's highly unlikely that it will ever be completely out of the spotlight. Players simply love the cast and story of BG3 too much to ever let it go, and the game lives on through fan content, mods, and the voice actors continuing to bring their roles to life outside the game.

A member of the Baldur's Gate 3 fanbase has triggered a very unique scenario that most fans will have never seen before. BG3 provides players with a perfect alternative to a Dungeons & Dragons party for a sole player with its beloved cast of companions, but it's safe to say that bringing along a friend or two can greatly improve your experience. This is also the only way a typical custom character, or "Tav", can ever co-exist with a Dark Urge.

Baldur's Gate 3 is a game that continues to surprise its players with just how many scenarios developers Larian Studios have thought of. With so many options on offer at every stage of the game, there are a staggering number of possible outcomes for every quest, no matter how large or small. But some players have found out the hard way that that doesn't always work out in their favor.

Patch 8 of Baldur’s Gate 3 has been available to the public for just over a month, and there's been a decent amount of time to explore all the new features of the game's final major update. The most prominent addition is the selection of 12 new subclasses, which have been incorporated into many useful class builds. I was particularly excited about the death domain cleric, but another subclass has since drawn my attention.

Of all the characters in Baldur's Gate 3, one stands out as the most enigmatic, secretive, and manipulative: the Emperor, or the "dream guardian," as it calls itself initially. While the Emperor is ostensibly the player's ally for the majority of the game, its true intentions are difficult to read, and it's hard to ever fully trust the mind flayer inside the Astral Prism.

It's highly unlikely that you uncovered every single secret and piece of lore in your first playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3. Even the most seasoned RPG player is bound to miss something due to the impressive attention to detail Larian applied when developing the game. With BG3 soon approaching its second anniversary, players are still discovering content that they've never experienced before.

It’s good to accept some of your failed rolls in Baldur’s Gate 3. Constantly reloading can get boring quite quickly, and it will make your story more interesting if your character doesn’t immediately succeed at everything they do. It’s not very often that not ing a roll will result in dire consequences, and there are often multiple ways to approach things if you don’t initially succeed.
