Baldur's Gate 3

I just finished saving Duke Ravenguard and the first thing he did was complain about his son. Dude is kind of an ass. Is it too late to put him back in the prison? I kinda wish I hadn't saved him.

Hello everyone,

We’ve got a new hotfix for you today, addressing several bugs, visual issues and blockers.

Have you ever had a romance so intense, that everything melts away? Well, sometimes that isn’t intentional. We’ve fixed an issue where Gale’s romance scene was playing in what looked like some kind of black void. Consider the ambience restored.

We are aware of an issue with kissing animations for Astarion, and are currently working on a fix. We expect this to be released in a future update. Thank you for all your reports and messages, and thank you for playing Baldur’s Gate 3! If you have any bugs to report, please reach out to our support team.

FIXES

• You can now use soaps encountered in savegames before Patch 4.
• Fixed the game sometimes freezing indefinitely after a reaction to a spell that hits you with multiple projectiles.
• Fixed a crash after using a reaction that causes an attack against a dead creature.
• Fixed an issue causing you to get stuck in certain dialogues unable to continue.
• Fixed a blocker that could occur when trying to Long Rest.
• Dominated followers will now follow the party as expected after loading a savegame.
• Fixed Gale's romance scene playing in what looks like a black void.
• Fixed a Dark Urge flashback accidentally teleporting you to the Lower City.
• The Cursed Skulls in Jannath's Estate are now vulnerable to Force and Radiant damage.
• Fixed an issue that prevented certain characters from executing their behaviours.
• Fixed citizens and refugees in Baldur's Gate sometimes jittering about the place or not using their proper animations.
• Fixed some visual artefacts appearing at camp in relation to Dark Urge and Karlach dialogues. This also solved the bloodstain under [SPOILER]* suddenly becoming larger after loading a savegame.
• Wyll and Minthara should now properly kiss a second time without the need to retrigger the dialogue.
• Fixed an issue where a companion's camp night dialogue could be replaced by a different dialogue that couldn't trigger during a previous night.

Nominations for the 2023 Game Awards, recognizing the gaming biz's best games and creators of the year, have been announced.

Baldur's Gate 3 is still on track to be released on Xbox in 2023, and its release date will be confirmed next month during The Game Awards 2023.

I've been playing BG3 splitscreen with my gf, when we first started Shadowheart would follow me and Gale would follow her. We didn't play for a long time, a bunch of updates have been out since, and when we started again Gale would just stand alone in a room and not move. I switched to play as him and now both Shadowheart and Gale follow me. How do we make it so that Gale begins following my gf again?

To be honest, the following isn't even really the main issue. The main issue is in battles I now get to play as 3 characters and she only gets 1 as opposed to the 2 and 2 split we were getting before.

Thanks for your help!

Version: PS5

When I press L2 my PlayStation name is visible when I hover over my character, Gale, and Shadowheart. Her username is visible only when she hovers over her character. She can't select Gale or Shadowheart to play as, the select button is greyed out.

Just so no one else reloads 131 times like I did to get a +2 wisdom bonus for Shadowheart, it doesn't work for her since she has "nothing more to give."

Yes, I kept track of how many times I reloaded.

Have been really enjoying my time with bg3. Sitting at about 200 hours, yet to finish love restarting and doing new class combos too much. Furthest I've gone is beginning of act 3.

Current favorites would be

1. Monk/ Rogue - so many actions, so much damage. Don't event need armor.

2. Paladin/Bard - support champ. Used as MC 2 pal/ rest bard. Lousy on attacks but can make up for it with lucky pal crits which always feel wonderful.

3. Barbarian/fighter thrower - absurd damage output and crowd control. Was still using returning pike from act 1 into act 3.

4. Sporeboi druid - loving the amount of damage dice. Using with lightning charge gear and pal enchantment to get like 4 damage types a swing. Reaction damage spell is wonderful at chipping away at enemies. Also having a class use temp health to increase effectiveness is pretty neat.

Have found bg3 to be designed well enough that I have yet to run into an issue with an class I've wanted to create. Started playing on tactician around 20 hours in and have only been rewarded for character creation creativity.

What are your favorite classes and combos?

That's like Theseus bringing in his ship for maintenance and when he returns to get it, the ship mechanic saying "so I have good news and bad news..."..

Larian Studios founder and CEO has shared a positive update on the Xbox Series S port for Baldur's Gate 3, revealing it has significantly decreased the amount of RAM and VRAM the game uses.

Baldur's Gate 3's Japanese release is getting rid of some of Faerûn's best pastimes - excessive bonking and excessive violence. When the RPG hits the region on December 21, it will remove the ability to enable nudity, and will seemingly censor the sex scenes even further

Really makes me want to make a Clem Fandango Tav and find/make a mod to give Gale a mustache.

EDIT: If Larian somehow doesn't get Matt Berry and Shazad Latif in bit roles for DLC where you get some special easter-egg dialogue with Gale, I'll be disappointed.

Original Sin's Honour mode is returning.

It has been a couple weeks since i played, so I am not sure if patch 4 has anything to do with it. I have not found any posts about it not working on linux, so i was wondering if anyone else on linux or debian having trouble?

edit: I switched to proton experimental and it works

I thought they had forgotten about doing this. Does anyone have the VOD of the comic con panel?
