Larian gets briefly kicked off YouTube, TikTok for demonic smut reasons in Baldur's Gate 3

Larian Studios found themselves temporarily removed from YouTube and TikTok due to a mishap involving demonic-themed content in their game, Baldur's Gate 3. Senior communications director Aofie Wilson was streaming a Dark Urge run during Act 3's House of Hope, where Harleep, an incubi character, appeared uncensored in intimate scenes.

The stream, which aimed to cover the game's sensual scenes, failed when Harleep's nipps were visible during a romantic encounter with Raphael. The incident was quickly covered up by a golden d20, which also became a symbol of Larian's misfortune. Despite the brief ban, both Larian and publishing director Michael Douse found humor in the situation, with Douse jokingly tweeting that Baldur's Gate 3 was "cancelled." The ban was subsequently lifted, and Larian's channels returned to normal.
