Baldur's Gate 3 Players Can't Romance Each Other
Baldur's Gate 3 has generated a lot of hype in its Early Access period, but it got even more widespread attention when, in a livestream, the devs demonstrated that you can do the nasty with a bear. Well, kinda. It's a Druid taking the form of a bear, but still, it's easy to see why it got so much attention. Now, it seems like many of us are looking forward to the romances more than any other part of the game, something Larian Studios has clearly noticed too.
Speaking in a Steam post, the developer has gone into more detail on how its romance system will work, setting out exactly who we can and can't shack up with. While it opens up a fair amount of options, it does come with one tragic confirmation: we can't bang our real-life buddies. That still leaves you with some very tempting relationship candidates, but it might get in the way of some plans couples had to play through the game together.

The lengthy Steam post goes over many of the features we'll be able to explore at launch, which of course, includes romances. Here, Larian shed some light on how we can expect them to go down.
"Throughout your journey, you'll forge genuine connections with those you venture with," reads the post. "These can flourish into relationships that add gravity to every decision you make in the game, and you’re free to pursue them through deliberation, choice, and consequences. However, you’re also able to back out of them at any moment, change your mind, or fall in love with someone else."
Answering fan queries, Larian then sets out the limitations of these romantic jaunts.
