I have no idea how many runs I started in BG3. Every few moments I report a bug. Every update the game seemingly gets worse. Decisions don’t work, pathing is awful, after the latest update attacks no longer connect properly and my character claims not to be able to attack with a clear line of sight and so on. I have never finished the game, because by the time I reach Act 3, it just gets too much. I don’t want to go into details, because, again, I reported tons of bugs. Steam refuses to refund me the money, even though the game is too buggy to complete. Sure, I can probably get to the credits, but the choices saved into the world aren’t mine and the world didn’t progress correctly. Multiple times I had dialogue not happen, end abruptly with no option to redo the line and rolling back save not fixing it. If you have no issues, I’m happy for you. But I’m tired. I just wanted to play my silly game and be happy, but instead I wasted 60 euros (actually 120, bought it twice, I’m a fool, don’t want to elaborate on that) to work as a free QA and be treated like dirt. Fuck this.

    You say that rolling back to a previous save “didn’t fix it”? Do you mean that the error happens every time you reload? How far back are you going in time?

      Yes, the issues I encounter are 100% repro. I roll back to before the interaction that is broken at the time, but I had so many broken dialogues I’m too tired. My 2nd refund request was rejected by Steam, I wrote an email to Larian, albeit I fully doubt they will even respond, considering how much emails they get related to bugs. I’m currently sitting rewriting my CV. Some people may not understand, but I’ve spent my life in gaming, my work is literally being a gaming QA tester and I’m too tired.
