Although Baldur's Gate 3 has only officially been on the market for several dozen hours, the production from Larian Studios has already managed to become famous for its attention to even the smallest details.

However, it turns out that not only the world of Baldur's Gate is filled to the brim with interesting content. The developers also made sure that even the - customarily complicated and boring - end-user license agreement is attractive to players of this giant RPG.

Magic Pact

The EULA document in Baldur's Gate 3 in general is still legalese and regulations. However, those who have carefully read the entire agreement will surely have noticed the humorous fifth chapter, which is a nice break from the official tone of the document.

It was titled "Additional Obligations in Eldritch Law," and here's what it reads:

Interestingly, this is not the first time the Belgian developer has included out-of-this-world provisions in its regulations.

Larian Studios has introduced a not entirely serious paragraph in the EULA already on the occasion of Divinity Original Sin - Enhanced Edition, the purpose of which was to see if the gaming community really reads the license documents (spoiler: some people do).

At the very end, let me remind you that Baldur's Gate 3 made its debut on August 3 on PC (Steam and GOG). A PlayStation 5 version is on the way, scheduled to launch on September 6.
