Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback dead by cinematic

It's really annoying when after a combat, a cinematic prevents you from helping stabilize a compaion and he dies.
Those saving throws should be delayed until the cinematic finishes, don't you think?

Yeah, or something to that effect. On the other hand, there is a "Change Character" button, and since generally only one character is involved in a dialog, you can swap to another character and do the saving.

I agree. The Critical Hit cinematics also get obscured by the big die.

Larian need to look at what their graphics cover up in the background, and at least pause the game while they show any cinematic effects.

The downside to that is that it won't allow any other actions during dialog, and there are things the other characters can do during dialog, such as pickpocketing.

I had Gale start his stupid dialog after a fight with everyone dying and me at low health and because of him, it turned into a TPK.

True, but then pickpocketing is wrong and you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.

My suggestion therefore helps keep the screen clear AND saves your soul from temptations of dark morality.



I feel a Nobel prize coming my way.

I'm so ashamed... /wink

I'll be sure to vote when it comes up for that prize though.
