"Oh, we're going there" – Baldur's Gate 3 Halsin actor "burst out laughing" when he got the script for the RPG's most infamous scene

Baldur's Gate 3.

It's been almost three years and people are still talking about the infamous bear sex scene in Baldur's Gate 3, a landmark moment in RPGs that inspired a recent Q&A with disturbing implications about lizards in the upcoming Divinity reboot. That said, I've always wondered what it was like for Dave Jones, who plays Halsin, the druid who transforms into a bear form for the player to then have sex with, to act in that scene. I'd pay good money to be a fly on the wall for that, but I was also fascinated to hear Jones explain his reaction to discovering that part in the game's script.

"When I first found out about the bear scene, I was on a train down to London to one of the sessions," Jones said in an interview with Fall Damage. "We get the scripts a couple of days before and you can look through. I just burst out laughing. It was more the fact that, 'Oh, oh, we're going there. We're going there."
