‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ can be a fantastic experience and a bad game at the same time.

    a situation where your character would get killed for a bad dialogue choice.

    I think this is a ridiculous thing to criticize too. Dialogue is important in a game like this and it has (sometimes lethal) consequences.

    Imagine if this argument were applied to combat. It turns out that it is impossible to beat some encounters by role-playing a loner wizard who refuses to cast spells. Nobody in their right mind would actually believe that is a valid criticism.

        There’s one point where you can deliberately make out with a brain-eating monster.

        There’s another where a strict and cruel god-like being demands you hand over something very important to them.

        These situations honestly should lead to death if you push it.
