Make sure to visit an old 'friend' before you wrap up your playthrough.

acts as a big hub area for several high-stakes dungeons and boss fights. They're all gnarly encounters that put your end-game builds to the test, and for the most part, they're all a complete blast. I could ramble on about all of them—The Iron Throne, Cazador's Palace, the Bhaalist Temple—but my favourite by far is completely, 100% optional, and easy to miss entirely unless you're looking for a specific item..

The House of Hope really drives home just how hopeless a life in the Hells is. Raphael, up until this point, has presented a very charming front. Rifling through his home while he's away gives you a glimpse behind the silk curtain, and reveals just how right you were to avoid dealing with him. It's haunted by damned souls with some of the creepiest, coolest voice work and writing in the game.

Yet there's also—fittingly—a glimmer of hope. I won't go too deep into the details, but Raphael's unbreakable pet might be one of my favourite sidequest characters. She's well-acted, funny, and genuinely charming, single-handedly keeping the dungeon from feeling too desolate.Baldur's Gate 3 has a lot of great boss fights, but I genuinely think your brawl with Raphael might be the best marriage of theme, mechanics, and story the game has to offer.

It feels like a failstate, like one of those encounters a DM throws at you after two hours of asking"are you sure?" during a heist gone wrong. It's like it's designed to punish you, to teach you a lesson about consequences—Raphael himself has 666 health, there are pillars that buff his damage tremendously, Cambions who can disarm your fighters, and explosive Imps wielding eldritch blasts.
