Just me or the version number is still there?
Yeah I noticed it I think just in some cutscenes? Probably an oversight I would guess.
I tried Vulkan again today and had no issues. I played for 4 hours.
What the hell is up with the thumbnail being weird and totally unrelated to the article? I’ve seen it multiple times in this community. Is this a kbin bug?
Thumbnail is the Baldur’s Gate III logo over a picture of an illithid for me. Is that not what you’re seeing?
I’m seeing a Native American man on what looks like an album cover labeled “Indigenous and Black WisDub”
Most definitely not BG3 related lmao
Same.
I see it too.
Seems the common thread is you all use kbin.
Looks fine to me. Shows a mindflayer and the title of the game.
I have an image for “Indigenous and Black WisDub”
Which is why you wait a while after release these days.
Are people being defensive over preordering? Day one patches should not need to be an expectation.
^ Proof that gamers will complain about literally anything.
That’s not a complaint, it’s common sense
Yeah, wait for those day 2 patches boys! Gonna make all the difference in your gaming experience. /s
The real story here is that Larian had a day 2 patch and didn’t take months to fix things that were broken at launch like 80% of the other companies would have. Acting like news of a day 2 patch is reason to wait on games as if it was such a long time is absurdity and bullshit.
Day 2 patching is something that we should be praising, but this jackoff is here acting like it’s a reason to cry doom at game development in general.
Most of these problems are rare. I mean, this is nothing like day CP2077. Comparatively I’d call this launch basically flawless.
Bro it’s not that big a deal. I played for a couple hours last night and didn’t have any problems at all.
Not these days. It’s been like that forever.
You should always wait a month or so before buying Western CRPGs.
There are always small quest bugs in these games that miss QA. Sometimes there are bugs that lock you out of entire quest lines or endings.
It’s not a reflection of the studio but something ingrained in this particular genre.
That’s just how game development works nowadays, it’s not exclusive to western CRPGs though it might be more prominent in them.
Truth is games have gotten extremely robust and complex aince the days of Doom. Instead of 100s of interactions games now have dozens of thousands and all of them come with the possibility of a bug or multiple bugs.
It is unfeasable to expect them all to be found and ironed out at release. That would take thousands of QA testers and months of testing after the game has gone gold, which is just a roundabout way of doing Early Access.
You have also to keep in mind the shift from games being made from a “one-and-done” perspective to a “live-service/continued support” one. The fact that devs update and patch their games is actually a good thing overall. The other option would be they just abandon them and that’d be it.
It’s always been like this for Western RPGs in particular, though. The rest of the gaming world just caught up.
I enjoy the difficulty before it has to be dumbed down for game reviewers.
Could always just play monk and dump Constitution.
