[QUOTE="Admin, post: 60407, member: 1"] A Baldur's Gate 3 player has just shared their detailed notes from a playthrough of the game in which they tried to get the absolute worst story outcomes for every single character. All except for Scratch the dog. In a Reddit thread, [URL='https://www.reddit.com/r/BaldursGate3/comments/164bp26/finished_my_chaotic_worst_ending_possible_for/']u/Sparkism[/URL] provided a detailed guide to ruining the day of every single Baldur's Gate 3 character systematically through all three acts. Surprisingly, this is more complex than it seems: while it may feel like the easiest way to do this is to just murder everyone, some characters actually have a better time if certain other characters are dead, so they had to get creative to make things as abysmal for everyone as possible. [B]Warning: Light spoilers for act one of Baldur's Gate 3 are detailed below. Read on at your own risk![/B] For instance, Sparkism's guide recommends saving Oskar from the Zhentarim in their hideout. Him being alive plays an important role later in the game, as it makes another character miserable who would otherwise be happy if he never comes home. Similarly, while players are advised to kill Karlach and Gale early on (or, by inaction, let them die), Astarion, Wyll, and Lae'zel need to be recruited to cause further misery down the line.
