Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Patch 7? A lot to redo

This last patch is really annoying.
The angles and views of the cameras have become really bad. We have no more fields in the game, we have the impression to have the nose stuck on the things. This in the game and in the videos. It gives you a headache to play BG3.
The inventory pages make the characters too small. It's ugly, no more view on the nice armors. Consulting and comparing the characteristics of the characters is ... I don't know, I gave up
When will there be a real map and mini-map? Currently it's something almost unusable. For the country of Joseph de Ferraris it's the last straw ;-)

Perhaps a better character viewer would be of use? How character looks is rather irrelevant gameplay wise... at least that is something I don't take into the account. At least inventory screen allows for seeing both the equipment and inventory now.


What do you mean? Unusable how? Personally, I would like to be able to remove the mini-map as I find little use for it, but map, while not pretty seems to fulfill it's function.

You can right-click ‘inspect’ your characters to get a better view of them, which you can rotate but sadly you can’t zoom in.

I hadn't found this, but it's a bit 'out of the game' isn't it?
And doesn't work for the active character

Personally I use the mini map a lot. I find that it is at the limit of usability. No landmarks really identifiable at first glance, river, road, forest, buildings, note .... Same for the map. They are just camera views from above.

This is partially true I think. Depending on certain info I sometimes adapt my actions/questions/responses. Like approval.
If Larian reduced the panels, maybe they'll make teams of six instead of four?
(Sorry for my bad english)

Well, no, still only first individual inventory screens fit on one screen.

What they have done is combine equipment with inventory - as the result the "doll view" of our characters got smaller to make space for the inventory below.

Yes.
However I don't really know why, but I find that the game has become visually "uncomfortable". For the individual panels it's clearly the size that bothers me even if it's true that having the inventory is convenient. I find that the interface has become "confused" (I and N) references to the same thing, buttons up and down, right click... In short a little bit everywhere without logic or organization (or it escapes me). Well I guess as the team is busy reworking the command interface it will change again and probably for the better.
That leaves the views in the game itself. I don't have the previous version to compare. But there too something is bothering me visually. The best I can say without a comparison version is that playing has become uncomfortable.
There are other things I would like to see changed, but overall it's anecdotal.
That said, it's still a great game and the team is doing a great job. The game runs relatively bug free and that's a lot in itself. The only big bug I had was the impossibility to replay my saves. A person from Larian took the time to try to solve the problem with me. Thanks again to this person. We didn't find a solution, but as I said it's only a preview. In the final version it will be a real problem.
