Baldur’s Gate 3 allows you to fill your inventory with bones and, if you’d like, you can sell the organic scrap for gold. Or, as one of the RPG’s players thought was best, you can just keep collecting bones.
“I always collect every bone,” Reddit user Vuthakral shares in a thread with nearly 2,000 upvotes as of writing. According to an accompanying screenshot, just their “most recent playthrough’s haul” contains 189 common leg or arm bones, 47 complete human skulls, 19 skulls missing their lower jaw, seven ribcages, and one puddle of miscellaneous little bones. One comment says, “Hey, so my question is : what the fuck is your problem ?”
One person is disappointed to see Vuthakral’s collection doesn’t include a pelvis. Others worry the Dark Urge that gives your Baldur’s Gate 3 protagonist anger management issues had bled into the real world and motivated Vuthakral’s fixation on bones both big and small… which I’m eager to push back on as someone who owns a smattering of taxidermy in real life.
I like bones not because I’m Bhaalspawn or anything – I actually grew up in Queens – but because I think pieces of once-living animals are pretty, physical reminders of the delicate nature of life, and that all creatures should be held tenderly, and with respect. By this same logic, I think Vuthakral’s bones are a great way to commemorate video game skeletons.
So other players nodded politely in reaction and shared how much they enjoy using ribcages – which are much lighter than a backpack, and still a decent container – to stash their valuables.
“I always use the rib cages as my poison purses,” says one such person. “So Astarion has a ribcage filled with poison bottles basically.”
“I do the same thing,” admits another player. “Now we just need a mod that lets Necromancers craft their own minions. Mine will be a bone centipede.”
Mine would be a bone dragon. But whether you feel repulsed or inspired by Vuthakral’s bone collection, it must be acknowledged that it also emphasizes the amount of player creativity Baldur’s Gate 3 allows. Years out from its release, Baldur’s Gate 3 still feels fresh for those willing to take advantage of that flexibility – and what’s more flexible than a beautiful, meatless ribcage?
