A player of Baldur’s Gate 3 is seeking assistance as Shadowheart refuses to accept their breakup.
In Baldur’s Gate 3, players are given the opportunity to romance multiple companions. Each of these companions has the potential to develop strong feelings for the hero, although some may fall more deeply in love than others depending on the circumstances.
Even for those who had no initial plans on romancing her, players have had a hard time walking away from Minthara. Some have even attempted to cheat on and kill her, but to no avail. Despite all the intentional attempts to break her heart, she remained devoted to a certain Tav.
According to a post by Reddit user Key-Location3522, Shadowheart is just as stubborn in this aspect. Even at the end of the game, the half-elf cannot be easily parted with. When she invites the player to meet her parents after the final battle, they decide to end things between them. However, Shadowheart only agrees on the surface, as her true feelings may suggest otherwise.
The Redditor shared that Shadowheart had been constantly tailing the player’s character for months. To add to the frustration, there was no option to end the relationship during the party scene at the end. They turned to other players for advice, saying, “I attempted to leave, but she wouldn’t let me go and instead pulled me in for a kiss. I don’t understand why she won’t let me break up with her.”
Many individuals in the comments were curious about the reasons behind the original poster’s desire to end the relationship. As of writing, the OP has not yet provided an answer. Some also took the opportunity to mock the Redditor for assuming they could “escape the goth girl.”
The reason why this specific player in Baldur’s Gate 3 is unable to end things with Shadowheart appears to be straightforward. They were in a relationship throughout much of the game, and it lasted long enough for her to feel ready to introduce them to her parents.
Despite this, one individual in the thread did present an alternative. Shadowheart’s solution for ending things with the player involves a specific condition: transforming into a Mind Flayer. While not the ideal method for ending a relationship, it is a testament to the extreme measures that desperate times can call for.
