The gaming world is abuzz with the latest update from Larian Studios regarding their flagship game, Baldur’s Gate 3. This new patch, touted as a significant game-changer, addresses a myriad of issues, with over 1,000 adjustments made. Among the most notable is a fix that caters to the “short kings” of the game. Let’s delve into the details of this comprehensive update.
Romance Reimagined for Shorter Races
Players who opted for shorter races, such as dwarves and halflings, previously encountered some awkwardness during romantic interactions due to the height difference. This resulted in some rather comical and unintended scenes. However, with the new animation changes, these interactions have been refined. The patch ensures that romantic scenes, especially those involving kisses, are more realistic, taking into account the height of the characters and the terrain they’re on.
Other Noteworthy Adjustments
Romance wasn’t the only focus of this patch. Larian Studios has addressed various other issues, enhancing the overall gaming experience. Some of the key fixes include:
- A correction to Shadowheart’s romance scene in Act Three.
- Adjustments to Lae’zel’s attire, ensuring it reflects the chosen dye color accurately.
- Fixes to the modesty filter for the Dragonborn race.
Moreover, players can anticipate the second patch, which promises significant performance improvements. This is especially crucial given the game’s expansive nature and the intricate details that make it a favorite among RPG enthusiasts.
Player Insights and Upcoming Releases
Larian Studios also shared intriguing statistics about player choices. With over 200,000 hours logged since the game’s launch, the Paladin class emerged as the most popular, while the Cleric remains the least favored. In terms of races, Humans and Elves dominate, whereas Dwarf, Gnome, Githyanki, and Halfling are less frequently chosen. Interestingly, these four races are humorously suggested to form a “rad metal band.”
