Baldur's Gate 3's Most Depressing Voice Lines Are Hidden Behind Scratch's Death
Baldur's Gate 3 is such a massive game with so many branching paths and hidden content that it's almost impossible to hear every single piece of dialogue that your companions can possibly speak. That's why fans have gone out of their way to datamine and catalogue every single voice line in the entire game, including a whole bunch of comments and companion dialogue that may either have been cut from the game or is incredibly difficult to trigger naturally in the game itself.

Being two of the more soft-hearted characters of the group, it's no surprise that the comments that Karlach and Shadowheart make are pretty depressing. Karlach will instantly make you feel guilty, as she says "Why am I
