Baldur’s Gate 3 has enjoyed a massive launch, and quickly became one of the biggest games on Steam ever. Players and critics have praised the freedom of choice on offer in the sprawling Dungeons & Dragons-themed role-playing game, and how well things run generally. But some have encountered bugs particularly later in the game during Act 3. Some have even reported they’re unable to finish Act 3 because of bugs. Larian will be keen to address these issues as more and more players make their way towards the end of their first Baldur’s Gate 3 playthrough.
One feature players are hoping Larian adds to Baldur’s Gate 3 is the ability to change a character’s appearance. The developer recently said this was in the works.
There’s so much going on in the virtual world of Baldur’s Gate 3, from a community debate about save scumming to players who are convinced they can “fix” Shadowheart. We recently reported on an ‘Owlbear From the Top Rope’ tactic that deals enough damage to take down pretty much anything.
