Something I stumbled across the game - I was using Labotor's Unlock Waypoints mod and teleported to the swamp and never met Ethel unitl I got to her cabin. I was so sure there would be broken dialogue, but I forgot completely I'm playing Baldur's Gate 3 and of course they have factored in someone could do this :) After giving it some thought, it is completely possible without mods too.
Seeing things like this makes me happy. There are so many ways that you can do things in this game from start to finish and you can have a completely different play style and game every time through because of it. All the different ways you can go about completing a mission or a quest are staggering. Different combinations of characters, weapons and abilities, stealthing through an area instead of fighting. There's all sorts of things you can do and they accounted for a good number of those things which is head-and-shoulders above what most other developers would ever bother with.

Exactly this, this is why I love this game so much :)
Sven said they tried to predict how players would try to break the game and tried to plan for it. Is it august yet?
I'm sure we will be breaking this game in many ways for the next few years the very least :)
And Ethel is my favourite trader. Three str potions every long rest.
