D&D General Baldur's Gate 3 will now be releasing August 3rd on PC and September 6th on PS5, increased level cap, race & class details and more

The only bug I have so far is that my Drow doesn't have Dancing Lights only Faerie Fire. And I have a suspicion that when I hit 5 (which will very shortly), I will only have Darkness.

Same for me actually. I didn't even notice at first because I'd never use it anyways. And not a bug but Lore Bard still can't choose their additional skill proficiencies and warlocks can't choose the cantrips for their book of shadows. Those are kinda baffling, completely unnecessary design flaws.
 



The body type option?

Have to admit I laughed out loud at selecting my penis option, what a naughty word world we live in. :ROFLMAO:

Remember, if you create a red-headed human barbarian and run around naked (which, if you have a Dex of 14 and Con of 16, is as good an AC as a barbarian can get armored with normal equipment early in the game), it's not obscene or prurient in any way - you're just cosplaying an ancient Gaul (although there's not much "cos" in that cosplay), and since the ancient Greeks and Romans described them fighting nude and portrayed them as such in their art, it's actually classy! 🤣

EDIT: I just realized you could have Gale cast mage armor on such a barbarian, and, unless Larian has made it so it interferes with the barbarian CON AC bonus, you'll have your naked character with an AC of 18, which is pretty high in the early game (20 with a shield, but what self-respecting naked barbarian would use a shield?), which makes it all the more funny...

I had noticeable lag entering Grove for the first time, but it managed not to crash.
One thing that (somewhat inexplicably) vastly improved my performance (by literally 20-30%) was going to exclusive fullscreen (i.e. not borderless window). I don't know if that'll help everyone of it's just my particular hardware combo, but it sure did it.

Talking of bugs, another one I've noticed - vsync just doesn't work. At all. And it doesn't seem to work with VRR either (but's not an option, it should just be happening though), at least for me.
 

Havent played a ton, but I'm enjoying it far more than my EA exposure. Shadowheart in particular seems to have been rewritten considerably.

I ended up going Paladin, because I always seem to go Paladin...
