Astarion's Fate in Baldur's Gate 3 Sparks Heated Player Debate
-
Astarion is one of the most popular companions in Baldur's Gate 3, especially after the voice actor won an award.
-
His story peaks when players confront Cazador in Act 3 and decide whether Astarion ascends or stays a spawn.
-
Many believe the "ascended" ending is worse as Astarion becomes crueler despite regaining his reflection.
-
Some players argue the worst ending is actually not doing his quest at all.
-
If you don't help lift his curse, Astarion begs you to kill Cazador at the epilogue party, scared of his fate.
