Baldur's Gate 3 was brilliantly constructed to hide its gay content behind big story reveals. You can't talk specifics without majorly spoiling the story.

I sometimes see people claiming Baldur's Gate 3 isn't woke. It occurs to me that this is only possible because people don't publicly spoil the story.

So here's what happens in BG3.

Act 2: the macguffin you've been searching for is actually an angel. A female angel. A butchy lesbian female angel. Who is fucking the bad guy's daughter. And that badass lesbian angel totally kills her girlfriend's mean dad.

Act 3: the mindflayer you've been working with is actually Baldur, the namesake of the entire franchise. Also, there's a dragon living beneath the city. And the two of them were gay lovers. That's right. Baldur's Gate was named after a gay mindflayer who was fucking a gay dragon.

So the biggest reveals in the game are super fucking gay, but no one talks about them because that would be spoiling the story. Isn't that clever?
