Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Photo Mode + Poses. Why not yet?

So stoked right now! Finally, our magic mirror is coming!!!

This is cause for great joy! Yes!!!

They do for sure listen. It sometimes takes longer than we might want for the things we care about most to make it in, and everyone has got one of those that's especially near and dear to them, but when stuff like this is included can't help but do a little fist pump!

I actually broke 2 ribs in a fall last weekend walking my dog, so dancing for joy is a little tricky, that could explain some of the saltiness on my part the other day hehe. I generally try harder but I was kinda tapping out. Had me feeling extra old probably lol. Also we've all been getting hammered by those spambots with the call girls of dubai who have been trying to make the Larian boards miserable this past week. That could also explain if anyone had trouble with the search function or new posts while that was happening. Or maybe some of the support ticket type stuff? Could explain it.

Another thing that you see when kicking it for a while is that there are these strange waves of both positivity and negativity that tend to go in cycles on the home boards. Towards the end of the patch cycle seems to veer negative historically and we get a lot people come over from steam boards (cause that place can be pretty frustrating) and sometimes you get a knock on effect here, but that too subsides after a little while as spirits recoup. There will also be times were everyone seems happy and very high spirits. Morale just kinda goes up and down, but endurance can pay off, when you see stuff like the magic mirror!

I think also we just never really know how one thing may intersect with another on the dev side, so it may seem like one thing is being delayed cause they're working on something else totally unrelated to that, but where actually both need to work correctly before they can properly patch in. Like for example, in patch 1 the status portraits bug starting happening, which could mean that they were trying to get that dialed for the magic mirror, since changing appearance on the avatar needs that through line to get the appearance respec out, so the portrait would match.

Anyhow just to note that much changed during the 3 years of EA and a lot in response to direct feedback here. So we just find a thread for the things that grab us, post what we can to keep the conversation going and try to enjoy ourselves.

Sometimes we get a huge win that makes everything feel so worth it!

On friday the boards here will see a big flurry of activity cause that always goes down, then it gets quiet cause eveyone is playing again, then noisy again. It all goes in patterns hehe.

Photo mode will make it in eventually I have confidence. They got the mirror done!!! Proof positive that they get stuff done! So happy right now, I can wait till Friday for sure!
