A Baldur’s Gate 3 player online has made what they describe as a real “game changer” discovery in Larian’s RPG. Their find comes after playing the game for over 1,100 hours, showcasing how well-hidden this particular Baldur’s Gate 3 find is.
Since day one, it has been obvious how jam-packed Baldur’s Gate 3 is with small details, many of which most players will never see in any given playthrough. This is part of what makes Baldur’s Gate 3 so replayable, though. If players with hundreds of hours and tons of playthroughs under their belt still have something new to find, then there will always be motivation to come back for more. For example, one Baldur’s Gate 3 player recently noticed a tiny detail about a popular item that very few had noticed before. There will undoubtedly be plenty of these details found for many years to come.

Redditor HaraDoon found an interesting Baldur’s Gate 3 detail of their own, after claiming to have played for “1,157.9 hours,” making them quite the veteran. Their discovery is that in-game soap can be used to clean off their character. They even went as far as to describe it as a “game changer.” One user in the thread with prior knowledge of this claimed that it actually has a practical use, as it can be used to get into the circus in Act Three. However, most were pretty surprised by the soap detail, with many having never tried it for themselves before.
Baldur’s Gate 3 Player Discovers Soap After Over 1,100 Hours
Those who had their Baldur’s Gate 3 romances come to its conclusion in clown makeup during Act Three may have appreciated this tip about soap a little earlier. It’s a pretty common meme at this point – players apply clown makeup when they find it later in the game, and have no way to remove it when their final romance cutscene arrives, completely ruining the vibe. As it turns out, there was a solution right under players’ noses the whole time, but given it’s such a niche detail that many wouldn’t even think to try, it makes sense that it has gone pretty unnoticed.
It’s a good thing that Larian crammed Baldur’s Gate 3 with details, because it may be all players get from the developer for the foreseeable future. After Baldur’s Gate 3 releases its upcoming Patch 8, Larian will fully move on from the game and onto its next project. The studio isn’t ready to talk about what’s next, but it will likely be some time yet before any concrete details emerge.
