Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Came back after months and it's even more bugged??

Larian, I'm really starting to worry over the state of this game, you know I'm a fan but a year ago I paid you for this game and there isn't any improvement at all which is actually what is expected of early access in case you don't know, in fact It's a shambles to put it bluntly. Cinematics that worked before that just needed a tweak no longer work correctly or I am seeing nothing in front of me, plus quests that were fine are now utterly broken; and yes I have updated drivers etc.

I gave up my latest run testing out the sorcerer (which IMO really just turned out to be a bad wizard as it can't learn spells and it's few spells that a wizard can't learn are far too weak) when I got to Waukeens Rest facing the trapped man quest, I used to be able to get him out but now the fire is immediately there with no timer and apparently immune to water too as I used Shadowhearts spell to no avail, this is just one amongst many that are utterly broken but I'm not paid to gametest, I've paid you to pay people to do that.

To get straight to the point the state of this game after 12 months is unacceptable on Patch 6 and you should be hanging your heads in shame, there is absolutely no point in adding new content if you can't get the existing content correct. I will categorically state that you should have stuck with a Divinity type game that we all would have cherished and loved which you would have probably near finished by now rather than getting involved in a project out of your league as it seams to be so far. Now don't get me wrong as I'm not a young troller trying to put you down as you made my favourite game ever in D:OS2 or an idiot as I hope you do prove me wrong but so far into this game after 6 months off I am massively disappointed and you need to pull your thumbs out of your arses to do that.

I'll be honest... I think this was just really bad timing for you. You came back immediately following a major graphics overhaul. Many of the previous issues had been fixed. Some of the issues have returned, some new ones have been introduced.
And, yeah, a couple never were fixed.
Go play hipster dystopian future game or endless space exploration game for a month, then come back. Right after something like this in Early Access just isn't a time to make fair judgements.

Patch six from what I gather hasn't been play tested at all. It's so full of obvious bugs.

Have you ever tryed to build a house of cards with single card missing in first row?
That could help you to understand where is core of the problem.

Yeah, if it was playtested, they need new playtesters. Thursday or so will see the M1 version and hotfix 18 if they follow the pattern for this patch. After that, hopefully hotfix 19 will see the game in much better shape.
If not, that's when I'll start getting irritated and grouchy again. Though good communication might buy them till the end of the year or so if they bother.
Also, please note the references to some truly horrible full game releases. One of which largely redeemed itself, one... uhh... yeah.

Hotfix coming? Hopefully they fix my framerate issues so I can actually play it.

I'm guessing. Because they aren't really communicating. But so far, they've released a hotfix with each new version of Patch 6.
