If you’re not aware of the reactions of people online, Baldur’s Gate 3 is a huge game. Websites such as HowLongToBeat time the completion of the main story around 30 hours. However, players who spend more than a few hours will tell you that 30 hours is the time they spent in Act 1 alone. This is mainly because the game is full of quests galore. Some quests intertwine with the main storyline, while others are standalone stories within the world. All of these quests come with their own marker on the minimap. There may come a time when you want to simplify your quests and only see one, or just fewer overall. Leaving many people wondering: can you disable quest markers in Baldur’s Gate 3 (BG3)?

At any time during the game, players can press ‘J’ on their keyboard to view their in-progress/completed quests. BG3 includes several types of quests. You have main quests, region quests and side quests. Not all quests will create a marker on the card beware. The quest location may be outside of your jurisdiction, requiring you to investigate further. Or if it’s a side quest, main story progression may be required to advance their story.

If the quest has a marker, you can immediately display this quest on the map by selecting “Show Marker” in the journal. Unfortunately, it seems that for now players cannot disable quest markers in BG3. Players who have picked up all the quests they could, only to find they want to progress through the main story, will have to endure the sight of a cluttered minimap. Throughout the Early Access version of the game, modders were able to create a feature that lets you turn off certain markers depending on what you want to see. Something that a lot of community members would like to see implemented in the base version of the game as soon as possible. Either that or update this early access mod to the full version.
