Re: Default API?

You don’t need Vulkan to play. I run the game with DirectX11 just fine. Vulkan is only the default option, so you can switch to DX11 in the launcher and keep playing.

Re: Xbox and PC crossplay, PC host crossplay broken
Tzarevich
11 hours ago
Hello,
I just wanted to say that I have also had this issue. We had just gotten to the Iron Bank and we were mid fight when my connection crashed. I was the host so I continued playing so I could save after the fight. But next time we tried to play no-one could join via crossplay. The one PC player and one Steamdeck player could join via other means.
Would also love a way around this as the only issue is the Xbox player as they have no other options for joining. It's an honour mode run as well, so we cannot re-load a previous save.

Re: Tav Refuses to Move

A streamer that I watch had this (or a very similar) issue last week. He's in Act 3 and was only able to jump around for a while. He was out of combat. He seems to have fixed it by removing pieces of his gear (specifically his armour) and putting them back on. After doing that, he was able to move around fine for the rest of the session. He even had to reload to that broken point and do it again. It was consistent for him. Hopefully it helps you or someone else with the issue.
For additional context, it happened to him after throwing a piece of armour at a secret door with hopes of breaking it. The armour sort of glitched out and he picked it back up at the base of the door. Then he was unable to move except by jumping.

Re: New difficulty level

Well, I admit, it is little bit out of box  But it would not promote playing 24/7 at all, quite opposite, I believe. As I mentioned but vaguely before - amount of "reload penalized experience" might not be fixed - but it could be non linear and adapt to when exactly and how frequent it happens. Let's say that, if you reload a save from a different date, then what is today - you do not lose any exp at all. But well, yes, there also might be some other "challenges" with this basic idea.

Re: The game constantly keeps crashing

Rolling back the driver is usually the cure all for this sort of issue and stop automatic updates on drivers. But One thing you might try, is instead of getting the game ready driver get the studio version of the same driver. I have no idea if it will work for you but that worked for me on another game where I had a similar undefined issue. So no guarantees but might be worth a try. If you have GEForce Experience installed that's very easy to do.

Re: Hornless Wyll - how to get?
Bethra
Yesterday at 10:46 AM
bit late here - like a year rofl. I never minded the horns if I'm honest - that would mean I hate tieflings as well and I don't. It was the eyes changing I disliked the most about that transformation. Windows to the soul and all that. Thankfully there is a mod on the Nexus that allows you to either remove the transformation entirely or allow it but keep his human eye - which was the option I went for. Its called Wyll's Mirror by Anshela. it works on patch 8, I tried it on my last playthrough. Of course neither the game or Wyll himself recognises that he looks human or has human eyes instead of what Mizora is supposed to have changed him into - but you can't have everything I guess, that would be the same if you used consol commands as well.

Was the Haskinn/Nikros Story Intended as a Parallel?
Rielle
Yesterday at 08:08 AM
I've been wondering about a possible narrative parallel in Baldur's Gate 3. After reading the in-game alchemy notes about Haskinn Xhesilaphin and Nikros, I learned that Haskinn used a mind-reading potion and discovered that his closest friend, Nikros, intended to poison him. Nikros wasn't acting out of hatred—he couldn't bear to watch Haskinn continue suffering from his deteriorating health and believed death would be a mercy. Haskinn then killed Nikros first.
What struck me is how similar this feels to the story of Ansur and Balduran. Ansur also wanted to end the life of someone he deeply cared about because he believed it was the only way to spare him from a fate worse than death. In turn, Balduran (the Emperor) killed Ansur in self-defense.
The circumstances are obviously different, but the emotional core seems remarkably similar: a beloved friend decides that death would be a mercy, and the intended victim ultimately kills that friend instead.
It almost feels like a smaller-scale Dragonborn retelling of the Ansur/Balduran conflict.
Was this parallel intentional on the writers' part? Is the Haskinn/Nikros story meant to echo or foreshadow the Ansur/Balduran tragedy, or is the resemblance coincidental?
