Baldur's Gate 3's hidden depths continue to unveil themselves. Larian Studios' RPG is a treasure trove of secrets, many unearthed by dedicated dataminers.
One such discovery, a previously found evil ending, has resurfaced during testing of the game's eighth major patch. This ending allows the player character to eliminate the illithid parasite by forcefully removing and destroying it, leaving the hero unharmed. A subsequent choice presents itself: depart with companions, or leave them behind.
The community speculates that this ending will be fully implemented with the release of patch eight.
Recent layoffs at BioWare, the studio behind Dragon Age: The Veilguard, have fueled industry-wide conversations about the current climate. In contrast, Larian Studios' publishing director, Michael Daus, remains active on social media.
His recent commentary focused on the industry's layoff trend, emphasizing the importance of valuing employees and advocating for leadership to shoulder the burden instead of frontline developers. He stressed the critical role of retaining institutional knowledge for future projects, arguing against widespread dismissals between or after project completion.
