    If you continue to have issues after uninstalling all mods (yes, even that one), please reach out to our support team.

    … Which mod?

    Well this update is dumb.

    The game automatically selects your character in cutscenes now. For example when going to talk to Kagha for the first time you will automatically talk as your player character and not whoever might be your face. In this case my PC is a fighter and my face is Astarion as a lore bard. Needless to say I’m a little miffed that Arabella dies just because I can’t use my face to do his job.

    So if you’re not playing a charisma character don’t even bother making one of your other characters a charisma character.

      Seriously? That’s ridiculous. Part of the joy of D&D is having a varied group that can solve problems in different ways. Making everything about the player character is just stupid.

        Agreed.

        I think BG3 looks to satisfy both normies and D&D players. Myself i rather want this to be a thing but frankly it could had just been a setting somewhere so it could work for everyone

      I admit, I really preferred how Owlcat’s Pathfinder games handled this, where skill checks are automatically taken by the party member with the highest relevant skill. Say, if a Persuasion check appears in dialog, the roll is made by the character with the highest Persuasion skill, without having to swap to that character. If a Strength or Agility check appears, the character with the highest stat makes the roll automatically.

      There should at least be an option for this in BG3.

    140 gigs required aside the already present installation? Larian really doesn’t like it when I have anything other than BG3 on my hard drive. But I guess it has been weeks since they made me redownload the whole thing. Once again.

    As a Linux gamer I’m sort of just waiting for steam workshop before I do any mods. The closest thing is lamprey but I managed the screw that up.

      Lamprey works pretty well. The one important thing to know is that you need to close it after deploying and THEN launch the game. Launching while lamprey is running can cause some issues.
