InBaldur’s Gate 3, there are a number of different romances gamers can get involved in, ranging from full-fledged relationships to one-time flings with multiple NPCs. Larian Studios has nailed the game’s romance system, as players like seeing their characters fall in love, go through the relationship, and have a future.
While talking withGamerRant, the game’s lead writer, Adam Smith, opened up about every bit of development that went into the romance system and how Larian Studios managed to achieve success with it.
Because even if you’re the one who wrote it, the artists made it look good, and the voice actor performed the hell out of it. The answer is always because somebody did their job really well. That’s how it works.
According to Smith, Larian managed to work out the game’s romance system by dedicating one single person” who literally worked out all other permutations.”This developer alone designed every interaction and came up with detailed dialogue requests.
Larian’s team then wrote and tested all the dialogues in the game and refined them in a manner that felt natural. Each romance companion in the game received its very own dedicated writer who understood the theme. The developer wouldn’t have managed to build the romance system inBaldur’s Gate 3without a total team effort.
Baldur’s Gate 3has a strong future ahead
It’s confirmed thatLarian is moving fromBaldur’s Gate 3to work on a brand-new projectthat is still under wraps. However, that doesn’t mean that the studio’s biggest hit won’t receive any further updates.
