Can someone tell me if they added specific Path of Giant dialogue? i was waiting for the patch to start playing but they are taking a century , i really hope it is not due to crossplay

I've not seen anyone who posts here admitting to being in the Stress Test.

I must say, this sounds hilarious:

Fixed a bug causing the Apostle of Myrkul to appear tiny when you reload your game during that combat.

The bug was that its voice didn't pitch correctly to the new size. They had to fix that.

Yeah what Mike said. We will have to wait and see for ourselves or get lucky, and stumble upon a Lets Play video of additional unique dialogue for any of the new subclass in Patch 8.

I haven't seen/watched any official videos of class sub types so I don't know if there's any confirmation of new dialogues. I know some class sub types like for Bard's Glamour likely won't, because I don't think they have dialogue in game for their specific sub classes to begin with. Just tons of generic Bard dialogue instead all over the place. :p

And yes the delay is likely due to Cross Play taking a fair bit of resources to get correct, and/or for them to get to fixing Class stuff as it arises from Stress Tester reports. Some bugs might not pop up until various people playing certain classes reach a certain point of the game with certain choices, causing late delays of the patch. Then there's just breaking stuff with new Stress Test Patches and having to fix that too. :D

Would personally prefer to save my entusiasm for a -real- run. Absense makes the heart grow fonder. Havent played bg3 since the news of patch 8 was revealed.

exactly, if we try to force a quick run it may create burnout when patch 8 releases.

You don't have to wait, you can start a save already and respec with the new subclasses when the patch is out... Especially if you don't use Mods, as they might be broken for a while because of the update.

Exactly. While I am looking forward to trying out some of the new sub classes, I am not "hyped" about it. It's not a DLC . It's not adding that much more to the game.

I certainly have not been waiting for it to drop before enjoying the game again. At my age, you don't wait to enjoy something if you don't have to.
