Baldur’s Gate 3 players adore “bizarre” Act 3 names that mirror D&D
Larian StudiosFans of Baldur’s Gate 3 are noticing some wild names for characters in the third act, and it has them cracking up over the developers’ humor.
There are so many characters that players meet in Baldur’s Gate 3, each with a unique backstory and personality.
Naturally, by the end of the game, the devs most certainly had to really stretch in order to find the proper names for some.
This is what the fanbase believes after seeing some of the bizarre names in the third act, and they love how hard the devs leaned into the humor.
Baldur’s Gate 3 fans love how the devs stopped trying with names
The conversation is going on over on the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit where a player brought up a name that they found in Act 3 that took them by surprise.
They share a screenshot of their game, where their hero appears next to a character whose name is Tooralooralayo, leading them to ask: “Seriously, what’s up with the names?”
Largely, the community just thinks it’s hilarious and adds to the charm of the game: “Act 3 names are goated. Everyone is named like Woozil Wazzit or Bimpo Bombo. It rules.”
Another user brings up how they believe these kinds of names were intentional on the part of the devs:
“Act 3 in general feels like Larian wanted to go all out on the humor that is otherwise more prevalent in their older titles like DoS2. So many ridiculous names and bizarre dialogues.”
Another Baldur’s Gate 3 player even likens the whole thing to what it feels like to play Dungeons & Dragons with a group in real life:
“It’s just a part of DND experience, when your DM runs out of normal names and starts pulling names out of their ass with increasing levels of ridiculousness.”
Intentional or not, it is clear the community thinks it’s another reason to love Baldur’s Gate 3.
