Astarion's New 'Baldur's Gate 3' Prequel Story Was Doomed From the Start

Astarion's new prequel story for Baldur's Gate 3 was doomed from the start. Larian Studios' 2023 Dungeons & Dragons game was a major success, driving player interest in the world of their companions, and D&D publisher Wizards of the Coast responded with supplementary material including miniatures, character sheets, and crossovers in Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms and Magic: The Gathering.
