Patch 3 went reside for Baldur’s Gate 3 on September 22, so gamers have had few days attempting it out and seeing what modifications Larian Studios has made to the sport this time round.
The patch launched full help on Mac gadgets, and the long-awaited Magic Mirror that lastly lets gamers change the looks of their character in-game. So, whether or not you need your Tav to look extra aged and haggard as time goes on, or just fancy a change in fashion, you are able to do that!
Although, not everyone seems to be pleased with Patch 3. Contemplating that Patch 2 went down a deal with, introducing an improved ending for Karlach and Wither’s Wardrobe of Wayward Mates, this comes as fairly the shock. Alas, two days in the past, one Reddit person took to the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit to share a prolonged record of qualms with the patch, and plenty of fellow gamers agreed.
The reddit submit particulars a number of points. Some being minor aesthetic bugs, and others being much more substantial. For instance, loot is now shared between you and your companions. Because of this once you dismiss a companion, all of their loot is piled into your participant character’s stock.
This might sound helpful at first, nevertheless it actually is a hindrance greater than something. Everytime you determine to change companions in Baldur’s Gate 3, you now should dedicate a while to stock sorting, too. Beforehand, you could possibly reassign companions and their stock could be intact – weapons and all – so you could possibly crack on with the search at hand.
Along with shared stashes being a little bit of an issue, two extra issues famous on Reddit have confirmed to be a bit of annoying, additionally. When enjoying the sport this morning, it’s clear to see that conversations now deal with the participant character – Tav – always. You may not see the expressions of companions within the background, which whereas a minor bug (if not meant!), is just a bit bit unhappy. I don’t find out about you, however I loved seeing Lae’zel scowl or Gale do a goofy smile in response to my dialogue decisions.
On high of that, plainly one thing has modified with facial animations fully. Whereas beforehand on level, plainly one thing is simply plain lacking when participating in conversations now. Facial expressions are merely not as expressive as they as soon as have been, and it’s unusual to witness.
In addition to the problems outlined above, gamers are reporting much more bugs. Supposedly, as I haven’t been in a position to check this but, each Gale and Wyll are bugged. Gale is seemingly repeating himself loads, whereas Wyll’s questline can’t be accomplished in Act 3. Once more, this has been reported by some gamers, not all, so that you would possibly nonetheless have the ability to proceed your marketing campaign with no hitch.
That is removed from the entire points reported, both. Apparently, nudity is being censored in some scenes even when the ‘Present Nudity’ setting is enabled, some characters don’t end their traces earlier than dialogue carries on, and doorways are stated to be bugged. That stated, I didn’t even have any points with doorways this morning, so plainly these complaints are on a case-by-case foundation.
With all this in thoughts, now we have acquired to provide Larian Studios some credit score for the way rapidly it has beforehand been in a position to squash bugs and customarily handle the issues, and hopes, of followers. We will now solely hope that the developer hears everybody’s issues concerning Patch 3 and dishes out a hotfix quickly.
