[Software] Not everything was going to be good news in Baldur's Gate 3

[FNX Magokiler]

Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the titles that, it seems, is heading directly towards the throne of best game of the year. But all that great news can quickly transform into spears that sting more than necessary and bring your bewitched players back to reality. And that is what has happened, that a small stone in the road seems to have become an insurmountable obstacle for some.

We are in a world in which the slightest mistake is penalized and, because of social networks, those who have the least patience quickly jump for the jugular of whoever gets in front of them. And something like this is happening to Larian Studios, which has had the detail of, faced with an update plan that has been altered at the last minute, to do things right and not publish their work until they are completely convinced that it is the best that they can offer.

The famous patch that is delayed
The fact is that yesterday, September 21, Larian Studios had planned to publish one of those important patches that change and improve elements of the game. Furthermore, it coincided with the release of the title on Mac platforms, which would be fully supported for the first time, so we are not talking about a critical moment. If you do it wrong, you could end up with more bugs, errors and problems.

That is why the studio came out to say, from their social networks, that patch 3 would not be published on the scheduled date and took the opportunity to announce that this entire plan would be moved to a later date.

 

Do you know when? Today!! Only 24 hours late!! Something unacceptable for some users who, by the way, should seriously consider whether they are capable of having global media in their hands.

Indeed, only one day delay to, as they claim, "guarantee exhaustive testing." Which means in their own words, that “we will release patch 3 this Friday, September 22. Thank you all for your patience!

Important performance fixes
Now, apart from that complete support for Baldur's Gate 3 for Mac, what other things are you going to correct? Well, the most important is the performance of the game in split-screen mode, specifically when two players are exploring different areas of the map, where computers and consoles – currently PS5 – need to inject more system resources (even with FSR or DLSS). . This is when the game suffers the most in its frame rate per second, so this patch would alleviate that small imbalance a little.

And of course, on everyone's mind is the third act, which is the one in which this split screen is used the most and which many players have been asking the Belgians to solve to keep the overall experience of Baldur's Gate 3 intact, even within hardware configurations, in the case of the PC, high. Remember how complicated this function is that Larian Studios decided to eliminate it from the Xbox Series S version, which is still in development and could hit stores before the end of this year 2023.
