I've had a few crashes, but usually only after the game has been on for a bunch of hours.

A more frequent bug for me is when all the buttons just randomly decide to stop working except for the main menu. Like the game recognizes the input and plays appropriate sound, but nothing actually happens. Will fix itself if I save and reload, but still weird.

Also had a funny thing where I went to camp right as an encounter was triggering. Only Gale went to camp, and when I left the rest of the party were frozen in t-poses lol

I've had 1 crash

I've also encountered a bug that made the action toolbar dissappear so I couldn't do anything in combat. Had to exit out of the game for that.

My crashes happen at start up. Goes as far as loading a save then crashes. It feels like I have to get lucky for the game to start. I wasn't having this problem 2 days ago.

Bear Daddy seems to think coma guy is important so I'm gonna do this sidequest. Got to the House of Healing and the game turned into Bloodborne lol.

Good thing I always max out Speech/Persuasion in every game that has it as a mechanic.

"Come Sisters, soothe me!" cracked me the hell up

Incidentally, I'm less attracted to the Shar religion now <_<

I got tired of everybody praising the game, so I bought it despite not having any plans to play it immediately. After a bit of rudimentary troubleshooting, I decided to roll a Wood Elf druid. I will be the bear that fucks.

I haven't played 5e at all, so it'll take a bit of getting used to. Thankfully I'm familiar with cRPGs, and opted to start as balanced difficulty. Don't need to stress myself out over tactician mode.

I'm not familiar with real D&D at all or druid space in it but from what I read and if it's your thing, shape-shifting is more balanced in BG3. In terms of all forms still being useful at later levels if you want them to be. I've been having a lot of fun with the class.

I just beat it.

The last cutscenes were swimming in minor graphics glitches (Astarian's armor lost all texture and was just black, no detail on other people's' garments, etc) but nothing major.

HOWEVER.

A couple of people spawned missing clothes.

A tiefling townsperson at first, then another, then another.

And then Withers.

My Baldur's Gate sendoff included a conversation with a naked grandpa.

It threw me at first because that first tiefling was just topless in a rowboat in a survival situation and I was like "odd choice Larian but whatever" and then it kept happening.

I've seen some weird glitches but tits-out disaster areas are a new one.

The Githyanki Cresche couldn't be persuaded by my arguments, and now they're all dead and Lae'zel has turned against the queen. Fun. >_>

Also found a little Blue Jay. If you talk to it it complains about the eagles in the cresche and even thanks you if you killed them. Love that little detail.

...didn't love talking to the Eagles to find out that they were a family before I was forced to kill them. ...and then realized it wasn't even necessary since the ceremonial weapon puzzle will accept any weapon of the same type and then find out the puzzle's rewards were kinda shit anyway. <_< RIP Eagle fam.

What are you talking about? The crest you get for completing that puzzle eventually leads you to the Blood of Lysander, a +3 holy mace and one of the best weapons in the game, and perfect for taking on the Shadowlands. Makes Shadowheart into a beast.

I HIGHLY suggest looking up a guide for the Blood of Lysander quest. You will not regret taking that weapon.

Just remember: in the room where you meet Vlakiith there are two statues you need to turn in a certain order. One requires a high DC Athletics check to pass, or you may be locked away from the weapon. I suggest save scumming that one part just for that reason.

I've never tried it myself, but I heard that you can use Grease on the statue to get it to move

So in this game, I decided I wanted my character to be bi. Mainly because astarion is so, seductive, lmao but I never did a gay relationship in any game. It's seems interesting and astarion seems like a cool dude. I like his mannerisms. Though I do have a huge crush on Lae' zel as well. I like her tsundere attitude lol this is all very holy of my paladin lol

Combat is pretty tough until you hit level 5.
Use the environment to your advantage, use the items you've found along your journey-won't do you any good to hoard them.
Be creative! See what happens when you throw a bottle of water at some guys feet and then cast lightning - does acid burn? I dunno, let's find out. If I place a barrel over here, will the enemy go around it?

I don't even know how to do those things. I'm rescuing Haslin and I have avoided all but one fight post-tutorial.

Well my head cannon is the parasites accelerate the connection. As we don't have to get to know each other as well because we are connected in a more meaningful way already.

Oh and I just like to add that I am not bi in real life. But ya know video games let you explore things lol I did my "exploration" in middle school and was not a fan lol

The horniness is 100% to appeal to the target demo for these games. Apparently, RPG fans in generally are sex starved. IGN even mentioned it in an article citing the amount of dirty fanfic associated with Fire Emblem.

Personally I think I'm getting more asexual as I age. Possibly demisexual, as I am attracted to people and personalities. But sex has no ensign for me. Though I do look at porn, so I don't know. I just know that I don't like sucking dick or being fucked lol but she's can be cool.

I had forgotten about toggle non lethal attacks (it's in one of the ribbons at the bottom of the toolbar) and kept casting sleep on them and then when the other enemies were dead the bear jumped to them and mauled them to dead :/
