Which contract do you agree to? Players spotted a clever message from Larian Studios in Baldur’s Gate 3’s lengthy T&Cs. There’s a nod in the middle of the text: the developers warn players against doing business with supernatural beings of Fey, Infernal, or other Eldritch origins. Better hands off, so the humorous message from Larian Studios.

Similar pact as in Dungeons & Dragons
The Baldur’s Gate 3 Terms and Conditions winks at Dungeons & Dragons fans and puts a smile on their faces. A similar contract exists in Dungeon & Dragons Fifth Edition. In D&D, almost everyone is constantly trying to trick you into making some kind of pact. Warlocks in particular derive their powers specifically from such a pact with a mysterious being. But don’t worry, a warlock probably won’t get sued.
What are the reactions? Larian Studios’ attention to detail and the desire to laugh with fans is evident from the developers themselves in their Baldur’s Gate 3 terms and conditions. Players react enthusiastically to the small details in the user conditions.
Numerous screenshots of the terms and conditions are circulating on social media. You can read section five again here:
