Hurry Up Patch 8...

[Suchy]

Still haven't beaten this game, mainly due to finishing up with other games. But i recently was able to put some time into BG3..kinda messed up my play through and left it alone for a bit. But ever since Patch 8 was announced i have been eagerly waiting so i can start fresh...

Now is the time!!! sitting idle with no other game to wrap up...C'mon Man!....

That's unfortunate....lol

They have rushed patches in the past and they have been a mess. That's why they beta test now.

I think it'll be sometime in February but yeah, it's gonna be a bit.

If Patch 7 is anything to go by, I'd expect at least two months after the stress test until it's being released to the stable branch.

The later patch 8 will come… the better… more time to fix bugs that there has to be because of new material.
And after that couple of hotfixes. So don`t hope for fast release… you would not like it!

They have rushed the game. That explains all those annoying plot holes and bugs and the need for so many patches. But time is money...

Good art takes time to make.

1900+ hrs. What you have stated, does not apply to my experience. Sure, it's not flawless. But not near as bad as some like to claim.

Sure, those problems seems rather minor, not really game breaking (except deaths because faulty platforms or bad pathfinding). To me they are annyoing, because they break immersion and immersion is cruicial in a game like this.
Just an example: why does The Dark Urge screams in Act 1 'They will die for you, father!' when he doesn't know his past? Or how can he remember some 'recent scandal' in Baldur's Gate (Free the artist) or Duke Ravenguard? Why can't you confront Astarion about the Gur's abducted children in Act 1? Open doors and gates are still sometimes bugged, so you can't shoot enemies through them.
I'ts a good game, but does not live up to it's hype and I wonder how it got voted for GOTY. Did the voters actually play it completely?
