At the time of this writing, one of the top posts on the gaming subreddit was titled “Party Restricted Mode Is Awesome.” “It’s so cool to run around with all my coworkers,” says OP, who has over 2,000 upvotes, and hear all the conversations and interactions he might otherwise miss.

Baldur's Gate 3 is the long-awaited next chapter in the Dungeons & Dragons-based RPG series. Developed by Divinity creator Larian Studios, the game takes you into the world of the Mind Flayers invading Faerûn, over 100 years after its predecessor.
