Baldur’s Gate 3is a game that not only has many choices and fights, but it also has tons of dialogue that shows the personality and feelings of the multiple characters you stumble across within the world. While there are multiple characters the player will actively speak to, none have as iconic of quotes as the companions that venture through the world with the player.
Not only do some of the most memorable quotes within the game come from your companions, buteach companion has thousands of lines that make up their unique personality. Every one of the companions is beloved for various reasons. It’s just that some have more enticing personalities than others. That being said, each party member also has a unique dialogue depending on your choices in their story, such asleading companions on an evil path.
10Halsin Is But A Simple Arch Druid
The Protector Of The Grove
Halsin is a fairly simple character in general, though he plays a major role in the story ofBaldur’s Gate 3. That being said, he’s a character who has some fairly good quotes despite his simple personality and lack of voice lines, especially during the game’s cutscenes.
As one ofBG3’s romanaceable companions,Halsin has quite romantic lines, some of the best in the game, but his general lines do falter compared to the rest of the companions. He does have quite a few great aggressive lines, however, which is where he seems to shine outside his romance voice lines.
9Wyll Is Upright & Brave In His Banter
The Blade Of Frontiers
Wyll is a character that’s known for his sense of justice and being a classical folk hero personalitywithin the world ofBaldur’s Gate 3. His voice lines within the game pair with that narrative quite well, as he remains just and dignified in his dialogue, which sometimes makes for great jokes from Wyll.
While Wyll attempts to remain polite in his dialogue,he can be quite snarky at times, which adds to the humor of his dialogue. His charm lies in the mix of justice and being a rebel, which is the perfect combination for the heroic warlock. Wyll also has some fairly great romantic voice lines, though they do feel weaker compared to other companions at times.
8Minthara’s Evil Overpowers Her Lines
True Soul Of The Absolute
Minthara from the get-go is a pretty villainous character, and whenshe’s recruited as a companion, this doesn’t change much.A lot of her dialogue is rather brutal and sometimes lacks empathy, but she does have some pretty deep voice lines which hit quite hard.
While Minthara is a villainous character,it’s clear that her feelings run very deep, especially when romancing her. But even then, her dialogue is fairly amazing, especially for a character who generally gets a low number of companion lines due to being added to the group so late. Players will have a ton of fun listening to her interactions with fellow companions as well, because she never backs down.
7Shadowheart’s Devotion To Shar Enhances Her Sarcasm
The Chosen Of Shar
Shadowheart is a brilliant character who you slowly learn about as the story progresses due to her being closed in at the beginning of the story. However, that doesn’t stop her from showing her sarcastic side towards the player, or even the rest of the party.She remains headstrong and resolute in her faith, which she definitely makes known once the player knows she’s a Sharran follower.
Shadowheart is a character that starts out sarcastic, but as she opens up, she reveals her amazing personality quirks to the player, though she still keeps some of that lovable sarcasm.She also pairs incredibly well with Halsin, as they have this friendly, almost romantic tensionthat highlights both characters quite well.
6Minsc’s Lines Are Always Funny
Minsc is a great character that we unfortunately meet incredibly late in Act 3 ofBaldur’s Gate 3.He’s a simple and heroic guy, who can be very unintentionally funny due to being quite absent-minded. Luckily for the player,that means he has fairly remarkable quotes they can use in his limited timewithin the party.
While Minsc is a fairly humorous character and makes absurd comments at times,he also has very profound moments. One of these great moments is shown after Shadowheart’s personal quests, and he resonates with her. It’s best to take advantage of Minsc’s presence, especially due to him being the last companion the player can receive. He also has great banter with his closest ally, Jaheira.
5Astarion Is Lovably Snarky
The Pale Elf
Astarion takes Shadowhearts' sarcasm and ramps it up to 1,000%, and players love him for the snark he constantly gives. He’s also very supportive of evil decisions as early as Act 1 compared to pretty much every other companion, making him quite a joy to have in those types of runs.
Astarion, while being his cheeky self, does also have some of the saddest moments inBaldur’s Gate 3.This comes to fruition as you progress his personal story and discover his darker secrets, which come to the forefront if the player romances him. His emotions run very deep, which is why a lot of players prefer to keep him as a spawn, becauseascended Astarion isn’t very personablewith his newfound power.
4Jaheira Has A Lot To Say In Act 3
The Leader Of The Harpers
Jaheira has a ton to say about the city as areturning character from earlierBaldur’s Gategames. Despite being a companion, the player can only achieve near the end of Act 2, she possibly has some of the most casual banter in Act 3, which makes her a lively party member to have when exploring the eponymous city.
Jaheira is very wise with her words and, while she can be sarcastic at times, she remains quite vigilant. You can definitely tell she’s an older character by her voice lines and banter, but while she’s old, she doesn’t feel out of place.She has great interactions, especially with the Dark Urge characters, as she naturally wants to protect the city, but sees the potential good within the Durge.
3Lae’zel Is An Icon When It Comes To Quotes
The Githyanki Warrior
Lae’zel has many great voice lines purely just by being herself, resolute, dedicated, and incredibly aggressive.She can get to the point where she even seems quite mean, but as you travel with her, it just shows her a more realistic view of the situation, despite how her initial view was skewed by Vlaakith.
Lae’zel is one of the few companions that has a story that spans from Act 1 to Act 3, which means you get to watch her constantly develop. While she does always remain resolute for a cause, the player can greatly change what because she pledges her allegiance to, even if it’s simply for herself.
2Karlach Is Loved By Everyone
The Fury of Avernus
Karlach is a lovable character in every way,being quite positive and cheery at almost every point. While she does have a dark past and can lose her temper, her positivity radiates consistently, especially in her dialogue. She doesn’t allow the hate she faces to stop her personality from shining, and this continues throughout most of the game, even in dire situations.
Karlach is adorable at almost every point in the story, andKarlach’sBG3romancetakes that to the next level with how much she adores the player character.She truly loves Tav and is willing to do anything for them, and that’s reflected very well in her dialogue with the player during those scenes.
1Gale Has Something Great To Say In Almost Every Situation
The Wizard Of Waterdeep
Gale, as the true neutral, usuallyhas positive or negative takes about almost every situation within the game, and that makes him a very dynamic companion to have. He gets along with everyone, which makes for great party banter as well as character synergy due to the fact he has a good number of lines with most companions. He can fit into almost every party composition.
Gale easily has some of the most iconic quotesinBaldur’s Gate 3,and he has a ton of them he can do, so players will never get bored with him. His romance is also surprisingly deep, and he says quite lovely words to the player. That being said, Gale never disappoints in terms of dialogue and always provides extra knowledge due to history in extensive research, especially when it comes to magic.
