Until now, you’ve had to make crucial decisions in Baldur’s Gate 3 and live with the consequences from start to finish, but that can change if you want.
One of the main interests of Baldur’s Gate 3 and any RPG of the same caliber is the possibility that the player has to shape the course of his adventure. Depending on encounters or choices, not everyone will have the same experience. The developers have also taken care to develop a phenomenal number of endings, more than 17,000 in all, although they are variations. How to achieve the “perfect” romance or know what to say so as not to offend a companion?
The choices of Baldur’s Gate 3 will no longer hold any secrets for you
How many times have you reloaded a game of a branching game like Baldur’s Gate 3 ? Far too surely. Bad dice roll, departure of a companion after a discussion that went wrong, or simple curiosity to see what could happen by selecting another dialogue, the reasons are multiple. If this slight frustration of the unknown is precisely the spice of the experience, it can now be circumvented via a new mod “OIO Overexplained Interaction Options”.
Created and uploaded by user xmas214, this mod details the consequences of your actions and interactions with the game as well as its characters. After installing the files, you will be able to know if this or that protagonist approves or disapproves of your actions in Baldur’s Gate 3. But the mod also adds advice for quests, indications during dice rolls or even on the things that will impact the end of your journey. It’s a bit of cheating and unnatural, but it’s at your disposal and completely configurable.
The “OIO Overexplained Interaction Options” mod – available on Nexusmods – for Baldur’s Gate 3 actually has four possible settings. The “Standard” setting which includes minor spoilers such as the revelation of statuses linked to romances, or the “Spoileriffic” which goes deep into it. You will have all the cards in hand to have the “best” ending, but without the flavor of having influenced the course of your story.
