Developer Larian Studios has released another fun trove of fascinating player statistics garnered from Baldur's Gate 3. It has come to light that the game's much-vaunted Honour Mode has prematurely ended over 1.2 million playthroughs, with just 141,000 successfully completed, which we should camp out on for a second.
In case you forgot, Honour Mode is the toughest difficulty in the game, and it comes with a few extra nasty conditions. Constantly saving over a single slot, a party wipe in the gruelling setting means the deletion of your entire run (or you can opt to shamefully keep playing, disqualified).
It's one extremely difficult thing to play through something like XCOM 2 on Ironman Mode and entirely another to make it through a massive, reactive RPG like Baldur's Gate 3 under such restrictions. You're looking at potentially dozens of hours lost with each failure, often literally coming down to a single roll of the dice; this is some pretty serious stuff (relatively speaking).
The Gamer crunched the numbers and determined that, roughly, that means around 11.6% of attempted Honour Mode runs have been successful. Of those 1.2 million who took on the Herculean task and failed, a disappointing 24% of players opted to continue playing; 76% had the dignity to let the run die, as is proper.
