Has anyone done an absolutist run?
Posted On: March 12, 2025

Not killing the mind flayer in the very beginning. Having compassion for it lol. Siding with Minthara. Pick all absolute dialogue options. Let Marcus take Isobel. Get branded. Lol.


I was just wondering how that would go and if anyone tried it.


Question from user einAngstlicher at BaldursGate3 at reddit.com.


Answer:

The mindflayer just kills you. Theres not much absolute content, and there is no downside to taking the brand aside from one character, Brakkal, not wanting to talk to you.
