A player in Baldur’s Gate 3 shared their disappointing experience of trying to romance the character Lae’zel. Despite their efforts, they were unable to achieve a happy ending with her, resulting in what they described as the “most depressing ending ever.”
The player had high hopes for their relationship with Lae’zel, believing they had a strong connection and a future together. However, two mistakes ultimately led to their downfall.
The first mistake was freeing Orpheus, the Githyanki Prince, which initially brought them closer to Lae’zel and gained the Emperor’s favor. However, this decision would later cause her to drift away when combined with their second mistake.
In an attempt to save Orpheus, the player followed Lae’zel’s advice and transformed into a mind-flayer. They humorously noted that Lae’zel preferred them as a mind-flayer rather than being with the Prince himself, whom she had just met.
Unfortunately, the transformation into a mind-flayer caused Lae’zel to leave the player. Despite their close bond and saving Orpheus, she rejected the player, stating that they could never be together because of their new form. She then rode off on a dragon with her new boyfriend.
Other players shared their own romance stories with Lae’zel, highlighting how the story can drastically change based on different decisions. Jokes were made about the importance of boundaries and the lesson learned that refusing to become a mind-flayer would have resulted in a successful romance.
Overall, the player’s failed romance with Lae’zel serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of relationships in Baldur’s Gate 3 and the impact of choices on the game’s outcome.
