Baldur's Gate 3

Spent a couple of hours again last night doing the tutorial. Loved it. Managed to kill the guy at the end on the mind flayer ship but didn't realise I was limited with turns so sent my main character to the transporter, while leaving other 2 companions fighting him and managed to kill him and collect the sword with shadowheart with about 2 turns left. Landed on the beach opened up my inventory and didn't realise the inventory isn't shared, thank god I killed him with the companion that lands 20 yards away from you on the beach! :D

When in combat I use spells or moves but some it says I need to rest or something to be able to use them again, have you got to rest outside combat or is it something where you skip a turn by resting whilst in combat? couldn't see an option for it last night?

Theres an icon to the right of your hotbar for camping, you can do 2 short rests in a day (which recovers some health and resets your short rest related abilities) and you can also do a full camp there (long rest) which recovers all your health and abilities and moves time forward a day.

You can rest/camp almost any time outside combat
 
I've decided to hold back from the game, for now.

Patch #1 will have 1000+ ( :eek: ) fixes and tweaks, and patch #2 will have players requests included.

Don't know the timeframe, but I'm waiting for at least patch #1.

My guess is that patch 1 will be released when the Playstation release happens
 
One thing I've encountered a couple times, and I don't know of its not an option or just I've not worked out how to do it. But there have been a few times where combat has started and I just want to be able to like yell "wait a moment" and try to talk people down.
 
I'm at the start of act 3 with around 80hours, I'm level 10 or 9, think its 10. Which seems to sit well if the cap is 20 and I have 2 more acts left.

Cap is 12.

If they allowed us to get to level 20 the game would become a cakewalk, even on tactician.

Ah wonder where I got the 20 impression from then =/ I thought they were pacing it quite well (starting levels seemed much harder though).

edit: tip for people, --skip-launcher will, as it says, skip the launcher.

Stopping at 12 also gives some scope for expansions later on (like 2 expansions , 12 to 16 and then 16 to 20), although Larian dont normally do expansions for their games. The flip side of that is that in D&D you're essentially a god by the time you get to 20 so doesnt translate well
 
Don't think an expansion is in their mindset, i would say continue to fix and update the game, then take a well deserved break and start work on the next project, maybe divinity 3 or similar ?

Yeah as I say, Larian dont normally do expansions, mind you they dont normally sell like BG3 either !
 
mine has started crashing tonight after about 35 hours of smooth sailing on vulkan gonna try dx 11 now and see if it keeps up, updated drivers and verifying game files a 3rd time lol

edit: seems like dx11 fixed my issue and the game feels a bit snappier plus loaded quicker :)
