Romance in Baldur’s Gate 3 is not as straightforward as solving a few quests of a particular character and making love with them.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is a complex storyline where each decision you make can affect the story’s outcome. In Baldur’s Gate 3, you have many complex relations with different people, and every action can either bar you or allow you a specific action, like romance.
Romance is not as straightforward as solving a few quests of a particular character and making love with them. You must be cautious in what dialogues you choose or what you do to the people you meet along the way. This is because every character will have different opinions of the world, and many will contradict one another.
In BG3, ten companions can be romanced at different points in the game. Without further ado, let’s look into the mechanism of Romance and what you must do to make love in BG3.
The ten characters you can romance are Astarion, Gale, Lae’zel, Shadowheart, Wyll, Karlach, Minsc, Jaheria, Halsin, and Minthara. We will examine their races, likes and dislikes, and what you must do to get laid in BG3. We also have a BG3 companion Tier list so that you can prioritize your companions accordingly.

Minsc Astarion
Astarion is a nobleman of the Elf race and a vampire. Being a noble person, he only likes himself and brags about his looks and position. He likes it if you mistreat people and be proud of yourself. If you show remorse to others or help them, Astarion will start to hate you.
The approval rating of Astarion can be increased by siding with monsters, being ruthless, and showing that you are selfish and cruel like a rich person. On the contrary, showing selflessness, weakness, forgiving others, and compromise will decrease the approval rating.
To romance Astarion, it would be best not to judge him and even let him know you’re your blood to get on his good side in BG3. He likes being proud and showing no mercy. Altruistic behavior is a sign of weakness in his eyes, and he dislikes them. He also has a condition and likes it if anyone helps him deal with it and not criticize it.Gale
Gale is a kind-hearted individual who likes to think and make the world a better place to live. He is the only character with different stages of approval. Once you have enough approval rating with him, you can meet him in the camp, and he will tell you his background and what happens to him.
He likes to help others and likes intelligent people. He appreciates curiosity, magical knowledge, nonviolent approaches, and kindness. On the flip side, if you bring destruction and chaos, he will not approve it. He also dislikes a lack of curiosity and stupidity.
Finally, he has a condition like Astarion in Baldur’s Gate 3. To romance Gale, you must help him understand his situation and hate those who point out his condition.Lae’zel
Lae’zel is a battle-hardened Gith and likes to take out the problems in front of her with an iron fist. She is a warrior and thinks like one too. If you want to be on her good side, you will want to feel like her.
She likes pro-Gith statements and direct approaches to problems. She doesn’t care about the blood which might be spilled in completing her objectives but likes to complete them quickly. She also likes when others cooperate with her and show efficiency and aggression in combat like a true warrior.
She hates nonviolent approaches. If you want to romance Lae’zel, never disagree with her or cause distractions at work; her approval in BG3 will go down. She doesn’t like do-gooder behavior to show others. She dislikes anti-Gith decisions and hates Shadowheart because they are the opposites of one another.
