It’s been one week since you looked at me Baldur’s Gate was released. How are you enjoying the game? What are your general thoughts, impressions, and complaints? Has the game lived up to the hype for you?

    This is really surprising to me. I am 30 hours in, and I don’t really think I’ve encountered a single bug. Definitely nothing game-breaking. The weirdest thing I’ve seen is the camera go inside some characters or a wall during a cutscene, and that only once or twice for a second. What sorts of problems have you had?

      I am playing BG3 on GeForce Now because I assumed that Nvidia test their setup with the game before release and share their findings with Larian. It’s easier to fix one config. I think that’s why I have not encountered a single bug yet.

    • What sorts of problems have you had?

      • Bonus Actions being consumed out of thin air
      • Lae’zel constantly bugs out forcing a reload of the game to fix it
      • Buffs sometimes are not properly applied, including plot related story buffs literally needed to progress
      • Reloading a save sometimes doesn’t revert states that happened before reloading.
      • Camera feeling like it’s getting “snagged” on things.
      • Interactions changing the moment I click to do something. Like I click Loot on a body and instead it starts a conversation with a companion
      • the Light spell doesn’t always get applied and must be recast multiple times before it actually makes the light effect.
      • sometimes the wrong cutscenes will trigger such as meeting a neutral character for the first time resulting in it going straight to combat as if you selected an option or tried to attack them mid sentence.
      • Completing a quest before you actually receive it will sometimes not actually complete the quest (leaving it marked incomplete in your journal) and not give you your reward.
