Baldur's Gate 3 continues to unveil its mysteries, captivating players with its depth and complexity. Larian Studios' game has been a treasure trove for dataminers, who have unearthed numerous secrets, including a particularly intriguing evil ending. This ending was recently rediscovered during the testing phase of the game's eighth major patch. In this scenario, the protagonist can dramatically remove and destroy the illithid parasite without any harm to themselves. Following this, the narrative branches into two paths: one where the hero and their companions depart together, and another where the hero leaves the companions behind.
The gaming community is buzzing with anticipation, speculating that the eighth patch will fully integrate this dark ending into Baldur's Gate 3, enriching the game's already expansive storyline.
In other news, BioWare, the developer behind the upcoming Dragon Age: The Veilguard, has announced layoffs, sparking widespread discussion about the state of the gaming industry. Michael Daus, the publishing director at Larian Studios, has taken to social media to voice his concerns about these layoffs. He emphasizes the importance of valuing workers and argues that decision-makers should bear the burden rather than the regular employees. Daus believes that it's unnecessary to lay off a significant portion of the development team between or after projects, stressing the importance of retaining institutional knowledge for the success of future endeavors.
