Developer Larian Studios rolled out the second major patch for turn-based cRPG Baldur’s Gate 3. Unlike the previous patches and hotfixes, it addresses some more serious grievances such as Minthara’s lines and cutscenes not triggering, performance improvements and more. Karlach enjoyers will also be happy to hear that the best Barbarian on Faerun got a new epilogue.
“As well as plenty of performance improvements and UI tweaks, we’ve added a new epilogue scene for Karlach, and are working on additional endgame scenes featuring other characters. Additional Karlach moments have also been added in Acts 1 and 2, allowing her to better reflect on her infernal engine and the options available to her.”
