What a- no I will not
Patch 2 coming soon which will be performance updates for act 3, an epilogue for Karlach, a closet to put co-op buddies in so you arenât forced to keep them around and a host of missing triggers being fixed
Changing appearance is coming Soon⢠but later
I guess theyâre not a fan of the Dark Urge story.
Coward I say, utter coward.
I have played BG3 this weekend and I must say I am utterly captivated. So far Iâve just arrived at Act 3 and Iâm very satisfied with the game.
Act 2 has been on par with Act 1 (which I am glad of, seeing how the whole Underdark story in EA with Nere felt like a bit like a long digression) and may have even surpassed it.
I accidentally ended up losing the allies of Act 2 when they kidnapped the priestess, so my campaign took a very grimdark tone as I was without allies in the shadowlands since the very beginning.
When I freed the captive it felt extremely rewarding then, because it was a true beacon of hope against the Big Bad.
So far Iâm extremely satisfied, itâs a game which really leaves me in awe for the insane work behind it.
I will say, they reasoning behind the lackluster ending is either them rolling a 1 on insight check for what gamers want from CRPG games, or just a lie.
Give me an hour long epilogue for every minor choice I made and its consequences, Larian!! I thought itâs the industry standard and BG3 was meant to be revolutionary, but not in the âactually weâre scrapping 99% of it, enjoy a 5 minute thingâ way!
(That being said, hearing about how the game ends has made me pause my own playthrough in addition for performance worries in Act 3. I guess once Patch 2 hits Iâll progress the story more, but Iâm also hoping the endings get better by the time I reach it.)

Yeah, I cannot imagine skipping the âslideshow of your choices and their consequencesâ feature, a staple of RPGs for literally decades, was a deliberate choice
It had to be a âsave it for patches when weâre not building the gameâ choice with how much interactivity is needed to make it work well, especially when adding them in is nigh-guaranteed to draw in a bunch of people to buy and/or replay the game

Finally had my bad wild magic moment yesterday. On a boat in the underdark I used misty step to get into a more advantageous position and turned myself and the rest of our party into house pets.
Wife was not amused.
I laughed out loud.

BG3: Extended Cut when
(disclaimer: I only barely started the game)
About a year after release, usually
(Divinity Original Sin 2 also had issues with its last act and they released for free the Definitive Edition the following year that added a ton of QOL changes and extra content)
Mightâa gotten caught in the obscure nono words filter like how a three letter word for a dance is actually a very racist slur in the US and A.
Definitely my mood today.

Honestly I more expect it to be because of the dirge memes but who knows.
July 2024.
It sure is funny how a country can have such a racist history and such cultural dominance that it can enforce its own shameful taboos in its own language on outsiders. Even to the point of offline interaction but thatâs its own rant.
Meanwhile it needs to be pointed out how the first amendment of the american constitution does not apply online.

Peeve: Iâm annoyed how many aerial photos of St. Petersburg for tourists focus on the church of Savior on the Blood.

Sure, itâs very recognizably Russian with is traditional onion-domed architecture, but it was built much later than its surroundings (in the late 19th century, at the place where Alexander II was assassinated), sticks out like a sore thumb, and overall is very much not indicative of the cityâs prevailing Neoclassical architecture, creating false expectations in tourists.
Canât even have a popular food nowadays without sounding vile. Thanks Obama.
Or make a bundle of sticks.
Hamberders ruined forever.
