One iconic scene inBaldur’s Gate 3implies how oblivious the player’s companions are. With a fully fleshed-out game that leaves little room for questionable scenes thanks to the dedication of Larian Studios, one little detail stands out as a strange moment under the right circumstances.

TheBaldur’s Gate 3companionsplayers collect and adventure through the Sword Coast with are often observant enough, reacting accordingly to the choices made. Although with a few rolls of the dice and some sneaky behavior, getting into trouble right under their noses is easier than it appears.NPCs can always be outsmarted inBaldur’s Gate 3, even the main party members, who seem to be the most gullible of all.
The BG3 Companions Will Not Question Alfira’s Disappearance
Getting Away With Murder Is Super Easy Around The Party
Thescene in question is exclusive to the Dark Urge pathwhen the player character wakes up in camp one night and finds Alfira, afavorite NPC in the community, dead by their hands. If the player decides to resist the Urge and cover their tracks, a stealth check can be made to hide Alfira’s body. Success will lead to the companions never finding her afterward. Keeping up the facade throughout the game with a clean image, the party will never find out what happened to the bard and will never question the odd disappearance again.
This was recently brought to the attention of players and discussed on the r/BaldursGate3 subreddit by userYamCollector. In the thread they comment, “Alfira just barged into camp, begged to join…and then in the middle of the night she drew a huge dark ritual circle in blood on the ground before running away into the darkness, never to be seen again.” The companions will never contemplate too deeply on these events, dropping suspicions as the game continuesif the player has a perfectly clean track record of hiding the Dark Urge.

Covering The Tracks With Good Dice Rolls
Other Reddit users adding to the thread commented on other outcomes of the scene, showing just how gullible the NPCs can be. User DrKnow-It-All commented with their persuasion route, “I just told them she was attacked by a boar, and they totally bought it. Yes, a boar drew the ritual circle and stabbed her dozens of times. Seems reasonable.” Players seem to acknowledge that getting away with murder right in front of their party without noticing is a hilarious aspect that came out ofchoosing to do an evil playthroughof the game, even if it’s a bit immersion-breaking.

There is a clear difference in the power of certain bard subclasses, but choosing the one that is best for you can feel like a dice roll.
Even with the scene playing out around the campfire, the companions nearby sleep through the entire ordeal.Convincing them that nothing is wrong makes the party members seem like the most oblivious and naive NPCs in recent games, although it all depends on how the Dark Urge character plays their cards. The task of playing theDark Urge comes with its pros and cons, but no matter what players get up to inBaldur’s Gate 3, the NPCs around them may not even notice.
