Summary
Baldur’s Gate 3continues to have a high player rate even after being officially out for over a year now, and this is because of the complex and immersive storylines, as well as a little bit of romance thrown in for good measure.Baldur’s Gate 3would not be the same without the ability to romance some of the companions, especially as some of the storylines change because of it.Maybe the villains can get some time too.
Romance andBaldur’s Gate 3go hand in hand, so it’s no surprise that modders have added some additional features to make romance easier, allowing for new options and more. Here are some of the best mods out there to up the romance game.
8More Reactive Companions
Added Immersive Experience
If players enjoy playing as Tav and want to hear more from the companions and what they think of each other (yes, even the flirtations), this is the mod for them. It repurposes all of the dialogue that is traditionally locked behind playthroughs playing as particular companions and brings them into the main Tav playthrough.
It makes party situations feel more alive, which is perfect when players are looking to get to know characters better before romancing them — or seeing what they really feel for each other. The lines match up with the scenarios in the game as they happen, so it is a perfect addition to a Tav playthrough with more immersion.
7Appearance Edit Enhanced
Change It Up
If players are looking to add a stylish layer to their playthroughs, this mod allows players to customize the look of any companion at any time in camp. This is perfect if players are looking to add more realism and changes as the game progresses. Love can change people, so surely it could change their appearance too.
Maybe players also just want to see their favorite companion with a new hairstyle in cutscenes, or prove to themselves that they would still love them if they were bald.
6Party Limit Begone
More Companions, More Romance
This mod is the ultimate pick for many reasons, but it actually can help players romance characters too. With the option to add more people to the party and not leave any in the camp, when a player makes a decision and all party members are witness to it, they will all approve or disapprove more often, allowing romances to blossom much more easily.
With room for 16 total party members (and eight in multiplayer), that means more companionscan be by the player’s side through storylines, ensuring cutscenes and dialogues are seen by more companions, making the experience more immersive and interesting.
5Hugs
A Comfort Break
Players sometimes just need a hug from their favorite companion so that they know that everything is going to be okay. With this mod, your Tav learns a spell that can be cast on any character in your party, andeven those you have in camp.
The hugs can be great for storytelling progression, and while they do not do anything to up romance levels with characters, they can be a nice screenshot scenewhen you finally do get companions to open upto you about their life and/or feelings for you.
4Kisses
Spice Up Your Tav Life
This mod is the next stage up from the hugs mod and allows Tavs to cast a spell that gets companions to kiss them. While there are plenty of cutscenes for players to enjoy, sometimes a kiss is needed for some casual story progression with their Tav lore, or maybe it’s just wanted instead.
There are different options for different body types and tallness, ensuring that no kiss is awkward; perfect for showing to friends thatyour companion really is your one and only.
3Approval Cheat
Never Get Rejected
Sometimes, players can’t please companions with their choices no matter what they do. And when you are looking to romance them as soon as possible, a mod can help players make that happen anyway. The approval cheat allows players to increase or decrease approval from companions automatically.
These come in the form of keys and can be used in increments of 15. With a higher approval rate from companions, players will learn more about them, and this can then turn into the blossoming romance they might be looking for.
2Replayable Romance Scenes
Romantic Cutscenes Again and Again
Seeing a cutscene once may not be enough, and this mod is for players looking to experience the magic over and over again — or maybe even see it through another companion’s eyes. This mod comes in the shape of a spell that can be cast on companions, NPCs, or even inanimate objects.
All the scenes will play in adifferent location dependent on the last camp visited, which means replaying the cutscenes will look different as players progress through the story. For all the romantics out there, this mod is the perfect way to see those special scenes whenever they want to.
1No Romance Limit
Romance Every Companion
This mod has to take the top spot because it allows players to romance any number of companions without getting dumped. It can be disheartening when you have tochoose one path in the road of romance, so this mod removes the need to be sad. Players can romance all the characters they like and see all the cutscenes with characters in one playthrough if they would like to.
With no limit, players can focus on making sure that their favorite companions become their partner before the third act; otherwise, those they are just ‘dating’ will break up with them before the story continues.
