In Larian Studios’ D&D video game RPG Baldur’s Gate 3, you can practically make any choice you want. Even if it sounds like the most terrible or brilliant idea, this game can allow you the pleasure of doing it. In this instance, it seems a Baldur’s Gate 3 player broke the game by killing General Ketheric Thorm too early.
In a Reddit post on the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit, it seems like a player accidentally broke the game by killing Ketheric too early. Although Larian Studios thought up many solutions to players’ wild explorations, they weren’t quick enough to patch it for this player.
If you’re not caught up to Act 2 of Baldur’s Gate 3, here’s your spoiler warning. The post explains how at the start of Act 2, as soon as they reached Moonrise Towers, the user and their friends went into the prison, and found the Oubliette through the red pit. This is where the Mind Flayer Colony is, and they were able to get through a wall using Misty Step.
This spell allows you to teleport to a location you can see. But they were able to get through a wall, find the Colony, and kill Ketheric Thorm before you’re supposed to. Later on, they entered the Shadowfell and Nightsong’s prison, except Nightsong was already at their camp. Although they were able to defeat Balthazar, their game got stuck afterwards, and they couldn’t seem to continue on.
Unfortunately, this happened before a recent patch for Baldur’s Gate 3, so although Larian Studios was able to fix it, they may have to reload an old save. On the bright side, at least no future players will run into the same issue. Just beware of the misuses of Misty Step!
