Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Game crashes during "Free the Artist"

In act 3, when I enter Jannath's Estate during the quest, "Free the Artist", the game keeps crashing when I speak to Jannath. I'm not sure what to do, other than hope for a fix, or just abandoning this quest. I've been able to complete this quest just fine in the past, so I can only assume that this is a result of something done during one of the recent updates.

It's probably the worst quest of the game. If it doesn't work, no big loss. I skip it every time.

I am not sure if this helps you because for me, the game didn't crash upon entering dialogue but during the fights, but maybe it is worth a shot. The considerable lag and the crashes in the place seem to be connected to the amount of invisible enemies and cursed items. Getting rid of those in small groups made the whole place more stable. You can find them with Volo's eye or an Elixir of See Invisibility, the cursed items can be either decursed or just smashed. The servants' staircase seems to have it especially bad.

Thanks. I'll be sure to try to kill enemies one by one before speaking to Jannath and seeing if that helps. I assumed that all of the lights turning on at once and etc. didn't help things. I did bring plenty of see invisibility pots for this questline.

I'm also encountering this problem. I went into the house with all 4 characters having drank see invisibility potions. The game consistently crashes either in the conversation or shortly into the fight to subdue Oskar.

See the memory Usage if yu are on PC..
Since the Last Patch the game went Crazy and Use Evrything yu Have for the First time yu Load the Game..
almost Broke my Game a few times becouse of that..

i always have to Wait now and reload a few times to Lower the memory usage..
and i bet a Bunch of People are crashing to Desktop becouse of that..
yu are running out of memory for the Game becouse he used evrything.. crazy stuff..

i use afterburner.. and before the Hotfix 15 the game never made this..

I'm having the same problem. The game crashes to desktop shortly after talking with Jannath. Maybe I'll give it one more try but destroy everything as I go as someone suggested.
