A user asks Larian for a free copy of Baldur's Gate 3... and gets it

With all the gloomy news in the video game industry, let’s talk about a slightly lighter story. It involves Baldur's Gate 3 and a player who simply dared to be direct with the developers.

The scene unfolded on X. A user shared a screenshot of the game, pointing out the resemblance between a character and Geoff Keighley (the creator of The Game Awards). Larian Studios responded ironically, explaining that the character’s name is John Larian.

In another message, the player casually asked the studio to give him a copy of Baldur’s Gate 3. Larian’s account responded to this request with a simple "ok". Later, the user revealed that the studio had indeed given him the game for free. He even shared a screenshot to prove it. Just goes to show that sometimes you’ve got to take a chance in life!
