has a lot of content to explore in each of its three acts, but it'spossible for the party to end up locking themselves out of content depending on the order in which they visit specific areas or complete quests.
The most obvious points of no return for completing content in a certain act occur when the party is getting ready to move to the next act, and a pop-up appears to warn them that they can't go back if they continue past that point.
However, some content locks are much easier to miss. Once the party gets to Act 3, there are a lot of questlines that can be started, and quite a few quests that start in previous acts end here.
The problem is that the design of Act 3 has the party spending the majority of their time in the city of Baldur's Gate and its surrounding areas, which leads to a much less linear structure.
Therefore, if the party doesn't know how certain questlines interact with each other, they can end up locking themselves out of content depending on the order in which they complete objectives, and that's frustrating.
