to calculate which characters — like Astarion, Karlach, Shadowheart, and the entire Baldur's Gate 3 party — have the most aligning morals.

The fan used the Approving and Disapproving mechanic of Baldur's Gate 3 to do so. When the player character makes certain decisions, messages such as "Gale Approves" or "Halsin Disapproves" pop up, and Tarrasque-Named-John looked to see which characters approved and disapproved the same decisions the most.

Minsc and Karlach agreed the most, aligning on 97% of all decisions. They're followed by a few pairs at 96%: Wyll and Halsin, Minsc and Halsin, Jaheira and Halsin, and Karlach and Halsin.

-embed-wrapper iframe { margin-left: 0 !important; } The opposite was revealed too, with Astarion and Wyll emerging as the most disagreeable pair with just 50% alignment. They're followed by Minthara and Halsin at 51%, and both Wyll and Minthara and Karlach and Astarion at 52%

Tarrasque-Named-John also calculated who would become "best friends" by the end of Baldur's Gate 3, ignoring percentage and looking directly at the total number of times characters agreed with each other.

Astarion's bestie would be Lae'zel, and Lae'zel's would be Astarion. Gale's would be Karlach, but Karlach's would be Wyll. Awkward. Wyll's bestie is therefore Karlach, as is Shadowheart's. Jaheria's is Wyll, Minsc's is Karlach, Minthara's is Astarion, and finally, Halsin's is Wyll.
