Larian Studios Forums Active Threads This Week

still a bug 3 years later apparently as I get it every combat now. New one to me even though played the game for years, Only way to exit turn based for me is to save and reload

Hi, all the mentioned troubleshooting didn't work on wendnesday, but I've been able to log in again since thursday evening.

"Dude" that 's what I said. DOS2 was not for me, but BG3 was. I'm saying that games where the world, the story and the characters are bland or irritating are not for me, even if the game mechanics are good. Whereas others where the story , the world and the characters are fascinating, even if some game mechanics are not my style, still make a great game. That's what immersion means for me, and that's why I think it is important for a lot of gamers. You ant all of these to stop playing PC games, even the ones that we like, or what ?

Update: Part 4, Chapter 31 is now published. This begins Part 4. Hope you enjoy it!

BG3.5 - Hellraisers (Fanfiction)
Baldur's Gate 3.5: Hellraisers - an original fanfic story that is a sequel to Baldur's Gate 3 Fanfic: The Afflicted. It picks up immediately after the events of Baldur's Gate 3 as characters from the previous fanfic - Fiovay, Kai, Aelun, Vlyn, and the other members of their party - travel to Avernus. Their quest is to save Karlach but also to hopefully find and rescue Darson, Aelun's father, from the clutches of Demogorgon.

Not my problem to deal with.

Not "my argument" at all, not to mention not a conclusion I agree with even remotely.

The fact that you don't value the importance of a game selling a specific fantasy (maintaining a convicing sense of adventure without breaking the illusion of the fiction being served to the player) seems to be absolutely a limitation on your part.

Abominable.

Thanks been doing that as well.

I love Shadowheart's response to this. Something like "Stole it from some other plane of reality, more like it!"

I have done multiple play-throughs with Hexblades and Hexblade multiclasses, and this is the first time I'm encountering this issue.
My standard post-long-rest buff routine includes:
Shadow Blade -> Bind Hexed Weapon. For the 3rd time in this run, I have started combat with my hexed shadow blade and suddenly found myself getting only one attack because my shadow blade has lost the "hexed weapon" status. I have not unequipped it, dropped it, or any of the obvious things people immediately assume.
Fortunately I'm not playing in honour mode or this could be catastrophic.
Every Google result about this has to do with the opposite - not being able to remove the effect.
I have not tried this with a standard weapon or regular pact weapon so I don't know if it has anything to do with the weapon being a shadow blade or not.
I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this and knows what could be causing it, or if this playthrough has somehow gotten bugged? I thought I would ask before spending time doing extensive troubleshooting.
The only mod I'm using is the Aasimar race from the in-game mod manager, and I've had that forever without problems.

It seems Larion did not have in mind the idea that Races and Subraces could have spell/passive/other selectors after character creation. The first thing I know people will say is just get IMPUI...but that project is no longer maintained. I mean yes it still works (the XAML looks ok after I went over it) but this is something Larion Studios should have in place.

Does Larion check these forums at all?

I would really like a transmog system, considering Larian's ability to create extremely ugly and "fitting" armors and clothes. Plate with a cowboy hat is my all time favorite. Couldn't play BG3 without a transmog mod.

To body morphing, what is actually Bodyslide and Outfit Studio mod doing in Fallout 4, isn't that a well working morphing system, to bring (ok, a non vanilla) body and apparel together?

But to be honest, a system with several fixed body shapes (lean/ normal/ muscular/ very muscular/ generic fantasy game anabolic agents formed char muscular/ fat) for males and females and a big number of different faces often seem a better choice to me than sliders and morphing. For example in TES 5 or Fallout 4 you could not make a lean male char, and in Starfield all female faces more or less look quite similar. More distinct preformed choices would be preferable.

It couldn't be German voice acting alone, they had then to do it in other languages too. My main concern would be the lip phasing. I could not endure the German voiced text in Starfield for example because it was so different from the lip movement. Only with the AI mod for German Lip Synchronisation I can switch to the German language.
