Well that's quite an upgrade Baldur's Gate 3 just got, and one of my absolute favourite games of this year. Might be time to jump back in again!
The main headline features are all great like the new Epilogue, Honour Mode and Custom mode, improved inventory access and more but — there's one other little feature that they didn't seem to talk about, that plenty have been discovering to great surprise. I am of course talking about willy physics. Yes, all those people upset at release that there wasn't any wobbly bits can now rejoice. I don't think you really need to see it but video proof (NSFW, obviously). Glorious.
The main highlights:
- Epilogue: An entirely new section at the end of the game that aims to provide a well-deserved sense of closure with your allies.
- Two new play modes: Honour Mode and Custom Mode.
- Many performance improvements, particularly in Act III.
- Players playing on machines with low VRAM/RAM should see improved performance.
- The game is now available in Korean!
- While at camp, you can now access and manage the inventories of companions who aren't in your active party.
- Added a brand new fight in Ramazith’s Tower.
- Orin’s outfit now drops as loot and is wearable by anyone. We also gave it a suitably disgusting description and name.
Those performance improvements as well will be quite welcome, especially on top of AMD FSR 2.2 that was added in a previous update.
For Linux Desktop and Steam Deck just make sure you're either on Proton Hotfix or the latest Proton Experimental, as they have the needed updates to ensure the game will actually launch.
You can buy Baldur's Gate 3 on Steam and GOG.

Some you may have missed, popular articles from the last month:
While I don't exactly regret the time I had with BG3 at launch, this really does remind me why I wait for the Final GOTY Enhanced edition of games. Glad to see they're working at it though, that ending... needs it.

That came just in time, as I am nearing the end of my first (and, for the near future, only) playthrough. Currently, GOG Galaxy has the clock at 211h, while the game itself says 175h, so seems I did reload quite a bit.
It starts feeling a bit tedious, but I've only a few companion quests to clear, so I guess I shall persevere. Given I never finished the originals way back when, that's really a testament to how much I like this installment.

Thats some impressively realistic physics. Now I feel compelled to create a character called Willy Wiggler

Beyond all expectations, and even though it indeed bears little resemblance to its namesakes, Baldur's Gate 3 not only managed to deliver but is actually GOTY material right out of the box. The third act though is very messy and cut down compared to what it obviously wanted (and deserved) to have been, so even though I love this game to pieces, I managed to unhook myself from it just before I entered the Lower City and at this point I'm patiently waiting for the definitive edition so I can properly dive right back in and enjoy this gem of a game in all its glory.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, I love that Larian are already adding new story content like the Epilogue :P

(Act your age, Pengling!)Still, it makes a change from jiggle-physics being exclusive to female characters, doesn't it?
