Should I restart because of... Astarion
Posted On: September 6, 2025

So I'm currently in Act 3 and I literally just found out I skipped a huge, very important scene regarding Astarion's romance in Act 2. For context I'm totally new to this genre on games and I suck hard, so I'm pretty sure I skipped the scene where he confesses he tried to manipulate Tav first but ended up falling for him. How did I skip this? My dumbass didn't take enough rests at Moonrise probably. I really didn't know any better.


His romance is still open for me in Act 3 though, is this possible without that cutscene? Maybe I'm just misremembering since I took a long break when I finally reached Act 3. Thoughts?


Question from user Broad_Addition2294 at BaldursGate3 at reddit.com.


Answer:

I think everyones first playthrough is iconic and shouldnt be too tampered with. For mine, I accidentally skipped the ENTIRE quest for Halsin lmao. I think you should just keep going forward and see what kind of ending you get, bc chances are you will probably never get it again vs your next playthroughs where you will get all the Astarion cut scenes.
