Not news.
Hard to overstate how repellent this is. Crazy how things have changed, openly promoting an image like that on official social media accounts. A decade the media managers would've been fired and two decades ago somebody would have been sued.just wanted to leave this picture here
Hotfix #26 Now Live!
Version Number: 4.1.1.5932596
Hey folks,
We’ve got a short and sweet PC hotfix releasing today that is resolving a game crash, as well as restoring your ability to switch back to a non-Honour-Mode save without fighting for your life with enemies retaining their Honour Mode Legendary Actions. Whoopsies.
With October less than two weeks away, console and Mac players can expect Patch 7 to arrive soon! This release will also bring some further minor tweaks and fixes for the in-game Mod Manager on PC.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on Patch 7! If you’re still noticing a few incompatibility issues with mods, give our troubleshooting a go and try uninstalling your mods to confirm whether the issue persists without them installed. If you continue to have issues after uninstalling all mods, you can reach out to our support team by clicking here.
Whether you’re making the most out of the new in-game Mod Manager or continuing to use third-party mods alongside it, please remember to be kind and patient to mod authors.
Not all of your favourite mods may be available to install in-game, and it’s important to note that attempting to port or recreate another person’s mods using the Baldur’s Gate 3 Toolkit is not permitted. Give our modding guidelines a read by viewing them here.
Hotfix #26
Mod Manager

- Resolved some issues with mod filters not working as intended.
- Fixed an unexpected crash when navigating the in-game Mod Manager.
- Honour Mode enemies should no longer retain their Legendary Actions when switching from an Honour Mode save to a non-Honour-Mode save.
The story was changed at least once during development from what I read on release day. The characters were much more edgy and flawed too. There was an
You can’t really compare the map exploration either. In BG3, almost everything is tied to the main story, so it's about whether the player finds or misses some piece of the puzzle. In BG1, most of the content is entirely optional side adventures that have nothing to do with anything. There are maps you can wander around just to wander. BG2 is a middle ground – almost everything is connected to a quest, but not the main story.
While I agree that BG3's characters are like a modern College friend group, I don't exactly consider BG1 or 2 great either.> And yet (aside from their low levels), they all have teenage angst, make cringy sexual jokes, and deal with high-school drama.
You know what they say, 'write what you know' and all that
It's a shame we can't get a game like BG3 with writers that have a bit of maturity
Depends on the location. Some have more quests than simply the quest given by a quest giver (Umar Hills and Trademeet come to mind). And, frankly, I don't mind being given location spots by quest givers at all. It's not like walking around the map in Fallout was that great. Maybe you should be given more opportunities to learn about other locations, but that's about it.All the places you discover are pointed to by a quest giver. Which also means they only exist for that quest.
I never found it to be full on teenage angst to be honest
Valid criticism. You're rightI never found it to be full on teenage angst to be honest
A sidenote: there's a huge ludonarrative dissonance when it comes to the companions' looks and their stats. Halsin's STR is 10? Doesn't matter, let's give him body that would put a bodybuilder to shame!
which of you schizo haters is this?
That I'd lay fault at the feet of their optimizing AI rather than the writers. I guess they arranged stats according to class rather than character.I never found it to be full on teenage angst to be honest
Apart from some anachronistic jokes and stuff, the writing as a whole isn't teenage angst, just the companions are. It's as if the rest of the game was written by someone at least half-competent, but the companions were subcontracted to some shitty dating sim writer. There's no way that someone who fought numerous battles in hell would speak like a horny college girl. Wyll is possibly the most "classic" of all the companions, but somehow people find him boring. I personally like his story of a tainted would-be hero.
Funny thing is that if you choose not to romance any companion, Withers even scolds you for it.
