Larian has released a fresh batch of Baldur’s Gate 3 stats, confirming who’s the most romanced character, how many people have completed the game so far, and more.
Karlach, all the way. And not just because she’s a 7ft tall beast of a woman with a machine for a heart who “Winks at her foes as she slays them”, but because her personality is very close to my wife’s.
Also, there is a specific scream that Karlach does when enraged that flips all my switches.
The spirit is willing but the flesh is bruised and spongy.

I enjoyed reading that.
As much as I enjoy the scream?
Fun fact, my wife found out I liked it. And she ssid “I bet I could do that”. She didn’t get it quite right the first time, but she nailed it the second time. Which just flipped those switches even harder.
This is oddly endearing.
Loser ass clickbait, they could have easily mentioned it’s crybaby Shadowheart instead of the objectively thicc Karlach.
Shart is your first romance, when your options are her (who is more or less ambivalent towards you at first) or the frog (who fucking despises you). Of course people pick her while they don’t know about Mommy Karlach.
Second playthrough you know there is someone better waiting for you out there!
I stabbed Shadowheart with a sharp stick and left her lifeless corpse in another dimension.
She had it coming.
she ran into your knife ten times
I got just inside Act 3 before I put the game on hold to wait for patches and things like that to come out…almost ready to jump back into it. I have been romancing Shadowheart because her story seemed to be the most tied-in to the game’s plot. If/when I do a second run, I will be Team Karlach all the way.
Karlach seems like a fun person to be around, when she is not in a rage. I love how funny she is.
And here I am wishing they’d remove the romance angle altogether and add more actual content.
