For this KTCO "Book" Club conversation, writer Maggie Tokuda-Hall returns to the show to talk about the game Baldur's Gate 3. In our conversation, Maggie and I talked about what it's like to experience a story with so many branching paths, how player choices reflect the player's personality, as well as some standout storytelling moments from the game.
