Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems BG3 Patch 8 freezing on cutscenes

Hello all,

i'm running BG3 with Patch 8 and the latest hotfix from Steam. I'm having problems where the cutscenes freeze the game. <spoilers> This happens right after I kill Ketheric and exit through the portal </spoilers>. The freeze varies between several cutscenes, including the one with Gale, the one with Karlach and the one between Aylin and Isobel. This happens consistently. I had no problems with any cutscenes previously. Is this a memory leak? Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Thanks

I have the same issue...

I have noticed this as well on Xbox Series X since Parch 8. I submitted a bug report a few days ago and have not heard anything back yet.

I have the same issue. I have a brand new Mac Studio and downloaded the game through Steam just about 3 weeks ago. Even though my computer has awesome graphics capabilities, I scaled back a bunch of graphic and performance settings without success. The game won't get past the Goblin fight early in the game. Any suggestions? Posted May 13 2025

Same for me (on PC). I think the problem arised only after hotfix #30 was released.
