Baldur's Gate 3 Finds Unexpected Fans in Vatican City

TL;DR Summary
Larian Studios' RPG Baldur's Gate 3 has surprisingly found its way into Vatican City, with two copies sold and one on a wishlist, as revealed by the studio's director of publishing, Michael Douse. This development is notable given the Catholic Church's historical stance against Dungeons & Dragons during the 1980s' Satanic Panic. The Vatican's acceptance of the game reflects a more progressive attitude, aligning with Pope Francis's support for homosexuality, despite the game's themes of out-of-wedlock relationships. The identity of the Vatican players remains a humorous mystery.
