Baldur's Gate 3 devs share more wild statistics, like what NPCs died the most
Larian Studios celebrated the third anniversary of Baldur's Gate 3 by sharing more fun, outrageous, and head-scratching player statistics.
Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian Studios has shared new player statistics to mark the game's third birthday. The data offers insights into player behavior, including the frequency of certain non-playable characters (NPCs) meeting their demise. According to Polygon, one NPC, Alfira, appears to be particularly prone to death.
The statistics also reveal interesting information about player preferences. For example, 9,008 players chose to play the game in portrait mode, with a 9:16 aspect ratio. This unusual choice was noted by Rock Paper Shotgun, which expressed curiosity about the decision-making process behind it.
Larian Studios shared these statistics on social media, providing a glimpse into how players have interacted with the game over its first three years. While some of the data may seem unusual or humorous, it highlights the diverse ways in which players engage with the game.
