SO MANY BUGS
It's actually unfuriating how many bugs there are in this game. You're constantly walking with scissors doing anything. Questmarkers that get stuck, quests that simply don't convey what is going on due to worldchanges. Quests that don't advance despite clearly meeting the requirements. The AI getting stuck in a loop (classic Larian bug).

Just lost 4000 gold because the game destroys it from my inventory. First it doesn't recognize the gold, and upon reloading it simply vanishes from the inventory.

It's actually painful how buggy this game is. I get the huge scope, but this might unironically be one of the buggiest double A games I can recall. They lurk in every corner.

Act 3 on Tactian, not a single bug I can recall, honestly. But as per usual with Larian games, definitive edition is when you should buy it when you want bugs free experience, do not know what exactly you did expect.

How can you not recall a single bug? Either you lost your glasses or your luck is astronomical. I've gotten several quests where I was supposed to find a person or item just get stuck because I already had it. Some quests bug out by pointing to a location that simply doesn't exist anymore (Dammon for example, fortunately this quest corrects itself later).

I can duplicate items in the shop STILL, which was a common bug during EA. My gold is not being counted and is being removed from my inventory upon reloading. The interface for selecting new items to equip doesn't work (try the ring slots).

The list is almost limitless. I've unironically encountered over a hundred bugs already.

Seems like you're very unlucky with your ... over a hundred bugs. :/ In my 24 hours of play I've only encountered one bug so far - the one where the exclamation mark for character dialogue doesn't disappear (and even that resolved itself after a while).

Your installation must be insane broken....

Got a few bugs there and there, nothing major and completely gamebreaking yet.

Don't think I have come across any game breaking bugs at all this has been a great release..

Already a good few hours into act 2 as well.

Act II is where things get really bad. I've also had an almost-unplayable buggy experience.

I have ran into only one bug so far, and that was a quest marker on the map not clearing...

Otherwise, no noticeable bugs so far

I met a couple of bugs due to which I had to load a save (disappearing interface for example), but for the entire playtrough I had about 5 cases. That is playable.

I've had one quest that got stuck, and a lot of quest markers that don't go away. There was also an entire area of the game where all the NPC's randomly disappeared and a guy I was meant to save was just dead on the floor. (Not sure if that was a bug or a consequence of delaying the quest after starting it, but everyone being gone was weird.)
I also had a really annoying bug where it wouldn't register that I ended my turn, and soft locked my game. I had to reload an older save. Then I had one character who's action bar disappeared entirely mid encounter, and I couldn't do anything with them and once again had to reload an old save.

I guess in this case though, people with bugs are the unlucky minority, since the reviews are so great right now. I was in the reverse with games like Jedi Survivor. I was able to finish the entire game bug free, and with mostly good performance.

I’m about 15 hours of playtime. I can’t recall a bug unless LAlt not highlighting EVERYTHING is one. Hopefully my experience continues to be this way.

I've noticed that things just don't register and get "checked off," like quests or even conversations with teammates, eg in camp I can talk to SH about the same thing but use the different responses each time. I feel the strength of BG3 is that it generally doesn't allow that.

I've only had three glitches so far; my companion approval indicators disappeared, Shadowheart had an exclamation point stuck above her head, and I couldn't summon Lump with the horn. First two were fixed with a simple reload and the last could be user error on my part.

The only annoying bug i encountered at the moment is = i loose so much attack Roll by just equip/unequiping ANYTHING... had to unequip my underwear 3x to get my 17 Spell attack back.... ( it goes down sometimes to 13 lol)

seems to be only my main character that is affected and i dont know if its just a visual bug, even the tooltip is affected (numbers changing)

Not using any mods
