Weve also made some improvements to speaker selection. When dialogue triggers automatically, the game will now try to prioritise your avatar as the main speaker - so your party members should have less main character syndrome when clearly youre the star of the show.

My constant whining feedback during early access finally got read.

Will definitely do a replay whenever an expansion comes out, still think the game needs a definitive epilogue segment. Even just one last camp debrief that youd automatically go to after the final boss.

They fixed the bug that allowed you to loot dropped weapons from elementals after a long rest. Sadge. Wonder if if applies to Devas as well. That mace is great on Minthara in Honour mode.

tbf, they had like no animations and were really overtuned in values. They clearly weren't intended to be PC accessible and only existed so elementals could make attacks.

Skimmed it and couldn't see anything about mic icons permanently overlapping UI in split screen. Was a massive pain in the arse even though mics were muted on PS5.

Didn't they patch that exact thing in to the game a couple of months ago? It was after I'd finished my 5th playthrough so I've never gone back to the game to see it but one day I will.

Yeah, I'd definitely like to see this fixed.

Automatically prioritizing player avatars in dialogue was MUCH needed though.

I remember people saying they added end game stuff right before I beat but I think it just ended up being a couple extra cutscene possibilities like Wyll going with Karlach

Fixed enemy NPCs being able to Counterspell a character they are not in combat with.

Does this mean the asshole mage I'm not even targeting is going to stop counterspelling me when I'm targeting somebody else?

I haven't played still. Does the game end in a way that could leave room for an expansion?

Guess I picked a bad time to start modding QoL stuff into my game, oh well. I'll give it a few days for modders to figure out what needs to change to get it working again.

Nah, there's a whole new small epilogue section that's like the Tiefling Party. Talk with your companions, get a bunch of notes from NPCs depending on what you've done, some DLC teases, etc.

Probably not, it means mages not in combat will stop counterspelling.

I know when you fight Z'rell, they or one of their allies can counterspell. I remember my spike growth getting counterspelled. Though my current run is also honor mode.

I love that BG3 regularly updates and bugfixes but holy shit it makes having a group with a Mac user frustrating as they get fixes weeks later and you can't play together if you are in different versions. It's definitely my friends fault for gaming on a Mac but still.

To my knowledge they are still ignoring me complaining that being in Wild Shape when dialogue starts makes the game skip your character no matter what.

Good lord. I might just uninstall honestly... the GPU I had that ran the game well died and this one struggles in Act 1. Feels bad.

Edit: Though to be fair I haven't tried it yet with their optimization for gpu usage yet...

Aw, Sporekeeper robes got nerfed (or I guess bug fixed, but it's essentially a nerf).

I mean, I saw it getting nerfed because constantly being able to cast haste spores was OP, but it was fun while it lasted.

You keep your file if you wipe, it gets set to Custom and continues as normal. You're still limited to one save slot if it happens though.

It does keep the Honor Mode legendary actions and whatnot?

I tried my own Custom and it had LA but not all of them.

I think so? Idk, I can't test atm because my mods are making the game brick from this patch.

I'm pretty sure there's a difference between starting a Custom file with the hardest settings and starting a Honor file, wiping, then having it convert to custom.

-

Jk just removed the whole mod folder and made a new character. If you start on Honor and die then keep the file enemies still have legendary actions but you can reload from your most recent save as much as you want. You're still limited to a single save though, but you can tweak the rest of the custom options as you want.

If they weren't planning on it at first, I'm sure they're reconsidering it after the game printed money and swept awards.

I have a question that's more about grammar nitpicky

Why is it called Baldurs' Gate?
Doesn't that apostrophy turn it into "Baldur is Gate"?

Baulder was a person. Baulder's represents that the person Baulder owns the gate.
