This is the best summary I could come up with:


Today, Larian Studios shared a ton of interesting player stats for Baldur’s Gate 3, the seriously massive RPG boasting over 10,000 unique endings and 174 hours worth of cutscenes.

Those stats included class / race breakdowns, total number of hours played, and how many times players have pet the dog.

Gale isn’t that interesting to me as the whole “I’m smart and I talk a lot” bit hasn’t done anything for me since Peter Dinklage in Game of Thrones.

Sixty-five percent of players chose to save the Druid’s Grove which Larian classifies as a “good” option.

Problem is, I had already had the reward — a rare spear — because I spent hours trying to pickpocket one of the druid leader to swipe a key that opened a curious locked door I found.

Larian didn’t include any further detail as to how those people accomplished such a feat but I have to imagine it involved a lot of skipped fights and lucky stealth and/or persuasion checks.
