Rare Baldur's Gate 3 Dialogue Can Only Be Achieved In One Specific Way

screenrant.com:

is a massive game filled with secrets and rare events but one fan may have just discovered one of the rarest pieces of dialogue in the entire game. While the most common way of playing through Larian Studios' RPG is to gather up a party of daring adventurers and form a competent group of killers, some players prefer to not worry about the various NPCs constantly trailing behind Tav. A «Solo» playthrough can be a difficult task given some particularly challenging boss fights but those who rise to the occasion are in for some unique events.

Posted to Reddit by user Whateverlmaoa, the player shared a piece of especially rare dialogue between the player and The Emperor that can only be seen if Tav goes through the game as a solo adventurer devoid of all party members.

Without going into spoilers, siding with the ultra-powerful Mind Flayer known as The Emperor in 's closing hours will see the Illithid become somewhat emotional about parting ways with Tav, going so far as to say that he values their bond. Even more special, he states that he's eager for their paths to cross again.

Given how uncommon it is for players to complete a Solo Run, this exchange between The Emperor and Tav is incredibly uncommon to see. While it's only a slight variation on the dialogue that occurs should players make it to the game's end, Whateverlmaoa does not that the delivery sounds significantly more sincere than what's usually heard which makes sense given how close both Tav and the Illithid would likely become after embarking upon such a journey by themselves. It's a sweet conversation, one that sheds new light on The Emperor as a villain.

The Emperor's emotional dialogue isn't the only time he becomes very familiar with players as Tav can go so far as to romance the Illithid.

This isn't the only piece of unique dialogue that's locked behind a Solo Run of but it may be one of the most narratively satisfying given everything players will need to endure to reach this point in the game.
