In Baldur's Gate 3, before a player reaches the final "endings" of the game, it is sometimes possible for players to encounter a "Game Over" screen as the result of a conversation option or fail condition during a combat encounter. Reaching a Game Over will not offer scenes or conversations that conclude the overall story of the campaign, but will cause a screen to appear that prompts the player to reload from a prior save.
