Larian Studios has taken to Steam to announce the release of the latest hotfix for turn-based cRPG Baldur’s Gate 3, aiming to take care of multiple crashes, bugs, and issues. In particular, one of the fixes tackles the defiant wish of corpses to defy the powers of gravity:
“Sometimes, corpses get nostalgic for those halcyon days of being less corpse-y. When this happens, they tend to stand bolt upright in an act of what can only be described as undead defiance. We’ve told them to act their age (dead being their age), hopefully leading to fewer weird ‘Didn’t I kill you already?’ moments.”
Baldur’s Gate 3 recently received a major patch 8: Of Valour and Lore that added a new class (Bard), a new race (Gnomes) and much more. You can find out more here. Other changes introduced in the latest hotfix include:
