1 week after launch and no updates
Even to game-breaking bugs that dont allow you to finish main quests, I'm starting to be disapointed. It's not like they didnt had a ♥♥♥♥ ton of pre-orders, and now brag about 1 million players. So... If you have all this money, where is the PLAYBLE game? It's not like a big deal to send a hotfix for broken main quests and balancements while the big adjustments are being made.

I remember BG3 devs being surprised by the amount of players they got, and they launched updates to fix such things almost everyday on the first days.

I really dont get it. The only thing made was a "guide" so the PLAYER could fix their product, a joke at this point.

I'm starting to remember the case from a few years ago in which workers at GSC Game World left the company for not receiving a salary while the owner showed up with a new Ferrari.

"By chance", those who left due to lack of payment joined/helped found 4A Games and the Metro franchise.

I can't help myself but to think that all this money going to GSC will not be well managed and the community will not have part of the return on this investment. For someone who seriously considered putting NFTs in STALKER, and had to back down due to the size of the repercussion it had, I really can't trust it.

I expect it tomorrow honetstly. Devs usually update games on tuesdays or thursdays, something to do with sony if not wrong or steam api. Still they should have dropped a hotfix for the main quest bug the moment they could. A lot of people are stuck and cant progress, me included.

They did update the live QA branch of the game today so I think you might be right

Of course it isn't, just look at how the game launched.

We had a patch on launch day and we will have another on Friday.

BG3 was a mess when it released despite having been in early access for years. It took the devs 3 weeks to release patch 1 which fixed 1000 bugs. Before that they released several hot fixes to try and fix the worst game breaking bugs of which there were many. It's had 6 more major patches since then and 29 hot fixes. Not really the poster child for a well made game.

That game launched without an actual ending. It got an ending added 6 months after release and yet people lapped it up. Gamers are dumb lol

In general, you want your patch to be tested-out and include the most amount of fixes too. So if they release untill the end of the week, like they advertised, I'm OK if it's on Sunday at 23:55 tbh

Devs: didn't say anything for an hour
You: THEY ABANDONED THE GAME! IT'S DEAD! AAA!

Relax, they will patch it. It's a good game with technical problems, which is better than a bad game in good technical condition. You can fix bugs, you can't fix bad design.

If 2 out of 100000 people have problems with the game there is no reason to keep asking for a patch. im afraid after a patch, that i will run into issues. im on 40 hours and the game runs perfect. let them cook please

Played it since day 1, I had saw not a single bug, just improvements in performance and then the only update that I noted diff was the one to exclude characters from multiplayer

You can set your patches to "not update auto" on steam, and also can turn of your internet before opening steam to play the game. At least while you are afraid of that. But I dont think an update will break anything from your current run

You dont want a patch to include the most amount of fixes if you have game/story breaking problems that needs to be adressed
