464 parties have already finished the new permadeath Honour Mode in Baldur's Gate 3, but it's also killed 34,000 player-characters so far

Larian recently revealed some more of the stats it's been sneakily gathering while we're playing Baldur's Gate 3. Among them, the revelation that 33% of Halsin romancers requested he boink them in bear form. Honestly, you people.

Just as shocking in its own way is finding out that 464 parties have earned themselves a golden D20 by making it to the end of Baldur's Gate 3's permadeath Honor Mode. This is the recently added difficulty option above Tactical that doesn't allow reloading, and also beefs up boss fights by giving enemies that are already powerful extras like legendary actions they can use when it's not even their turn. The remixed difficulty includes plenty of surprises, like the owlbear mother you face in act one being joined by an owlbear father to provide double the parental pummelling.
