Summary
- A rare Shadowheart romance dialogue in Baldur's Gate 3 is unlocked by poisoning goblins in Act 1.
- The game has so much content that players may need multiple playthroughs to discover everything.
A Baldur’s Gate 3 player online has discovered a rare piece of dialogue during Shadowheart’s romance, which is only possible to hear if a very specific choice is made throughout the game. Baldur’s Gate 3 has so many different paths to take that no player can see everything it has to offer in one playthrough.
It's no secret that Baldur's Gate 3 features an absurd amount of content. Players will be finding new pieces of dialogue for years to come, and only players who complete numerous playthroughs can hope to hear the majority of the interactions between the characters. Even then, it's a lofty hope. Impressively, Larian has even continued to add new pieces of dialogue via updates, with one Baldur's Gate 3 player finding a wholesome Shadowheart interaction in Patch 7. It's always cool to see the small details that Larian has considered when adding these small interactions, especially knowing that most players may never see them.
The Wildest Fan Theories Of Baldur's Gate 3 Explained
Baldur's Gate 3 fans are theorizing about Halsin's true nature, Sarevok's identity, and the mind flayers' choice of kidnapping victims.
Redditor AtlasFlynn discovered that any player who poisons the Goblin Camp in Act 1 of Baldur's Gate 3 unlocks a secret piece of dialogue during Shadowheart's romance, specifically during the date between her and the player. When suggesting a toast, the player has a new piece of dialogue that reads, "I seem to recall a campful of goblins faring very poorly after a toast." Some players in the thread were curious about what Shadowheart's response is to this, and according to AtlasFlynn, "She tells you not to worry, and raises a toast ''to not being poisoned''."
Baldur's Gate 3 Has Secret Shadowheart Romance Dialogue When Goblins are Poisoned
The Shadowheart romance in Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the best in the game. It's a storyline about helping Shadowheart come to terms with her past and her own identity, making it a very popular choice for players. It's impressive to see that with Shadowheart's romance, even a completely unrelated decision can impact the experience.
While many thought that Patch 7 could be Baldur's Gate 3's final major update, that doesn't seem to be the case. While Larian is largely moving on from the game to other projects, it has recently teased what is coming in future Baldur's Gate 3 updates, with features like photo mode and crossplay currently planned at some point. It's a game that deserves ongoing support, so it's great to hear there's more to come from Larian. Hopefully, there will be even more interactions added for players to discover, although nothing is guaranteed.
