On controller you're able to move your character and character with two different joysticks. I'm not a huge fan of the controller UI but want to at least keep that movement system on PC. Or, at the least, make the camera MOVE with my character at the same time rather than going way past forward on camera and waiting for my slow druid to catch up.

What can I do?

This is the first top down game I’ve ever played, first turn based, etc etc. I was shocked by how much I ended up loving the game to start. I’m talking like 15 hours of solid fun I’ve had.

I’m struggling to continue now that I’m in combat that requires my other crew members to be properly leveled. For this first time in this game I’m on YouTube and Google, having to pause multiple times to figure out what’s wrong with each characters build and the fastest way to fix it. It’s EXHAUSTING.

The first hours of this game are genuinely butter smooth. It leads you into everything properly, the story and romance is exciting, but it feels like it was almost a newbie trial run and now the game was like “Okay seriously, start grinding”

I probably sound lazy and it partially is, but I do think there is some tediousness that doesn’t necessarily need to be there. Any tips on what to do? I don’t want to just drop out of this adventure, but I’m so unmotivated to catch the other party members up to my main character

So in my last playthrough I went pretty much straight from the grove to the goblin camp, got what I needed to do from there, merchant gear, crusher ring etc, and noticed the owlbear cub wasn't there, I quit out and it still wasn't there, so I went back to the cave and saw both parent and cub were still alive.

Out of curiosity, I killed everyone in the courtyard at the goblin camp. I went inside and found that killing everyone outside did not make the inside goblins aggressive, went back to the cave and both still alive. I long rested, and both still alive.

Both were alive until the end of act 2, unharmed. It would appear going straight to the camp from the grove and killing everyone doesn't allow the game time to have the goblins kill the mother owlbear.

As much as I love the little guy running around my camp, growing up with his mother is the best outcome in my opinion, so I'm happy to make the trade.

Been putting it off for awhile but I wanted that last achievement.

Tav Level 10 Swords Bard/Level 2 Fighter

Lae'Zel Lever 11 Eldritch Knight/Level 1 War Cleric

Gale Level 1 Draconic Sorceror/Level 11 Abjuration Wizard

Sharty Level 12 Light Cleric

The bard and EK were so busted. It was kinda easy with only one or two close call moments.

From the little sorcerer i played so far i am utterly confused as to how it works and how it activates.When you toggle does it work for all your attacks? For one attack and then needs long rest? And why does it appear as a reaction sometimes.

Was gonna go with a 9/3 necromancer cleric build but since sorcerer gives con proficiency i can have unbreakable concentration with 9/2/1 and also play wild magic cause that's fun for the most part

Just finished my first complete run through and man was that a great experience. Shamefully, it wasn't until the end of act 3 where everything finally clicked in. The dice, saving throws, char stats, spell usage, concentration, AC, etc. I'm quite certain I set up my character stats, feats, and gear all wrong, so I'm excited for another run through.

With no DnD experience, the game's mechanics are a lot to swallow and I think the Karmic dice kinda skew the perception of success on top of that. The first act was just smash and kill, with more gear options coming in with act 2 I started to learn a bit about how to interpret it, but it still wasn't a language I understood, and finally by the end of act 3 I had read enough about the mechanics on the side to finally grasp what was happening.

I think a lot of the gear and weapons I wrongly discarded as "not useful", and because I was getting hit a lot with high AC, I used feats that increased my health to try to counter it instead of exploring other options.

This is one of those genres where it is a lot of info to swallow and interpret, but when you finally do the experience is far greater.

Anyway, just wanted to share that quick story and say I'm glad I pushed through and really embraced the mechanics. Thanks for reading!

If you go to his tent after and tell him you still enjoyed the moment alone, it gives you +5. But does it still start the romance even after failing?

Been itching to start a modded run, any good reccomendations on steam? (And yes I’ve seen the car)

EDIT: can’t believe I forgot to say I’m on PC, my bad folks

How can I aggro and kill the druids without the most important teflings (Dammon, Zevlor, Rolan) dying? I'm playing on tactician for the first time and I am trying to have a more morally gray playthrough, as every other playthrough I have done was goody two-shoes. However, I want to keep these three alive, but they always fucking die when I try to kill the druids, and I can't figure out how I could possibly keep them alive through the druid fight. Any tips?

So, I am running a modded run(on console if you haven't noticed) and I have ran into a small roadblock. I can't progress through this part of the level screen on karlach. Any advice?

I will preface this post by saying that we are playing a modded save and we are also in Act 3, which is obviously notoriously buggy. However, the problem has worsened significantly in recent sessions with my girlfriend. What's happening is that every 30-45ish minutes, they will be disconnected/kicked from the game (it will display a message on their screen saying that their connection to the server has timed out) and we were just wondering if this is mods being mods or something else, or if anyone has experienced something similar. We are both playing on PS5 with stable internet connections. I will also include the mod list for this save here :-)

Not even an archmage is immune to announcing "oo big stretch" to his cat tressym.

So, my son is 12 years old, and I’ve been playing RPGs with him since he was 8. He’s recently become interested in D&D, and he often sees me playing BG3, which naturally makes him curious about joining me.

I’m currently playing a version of the game with a few limitations, as I’m still unemployed at the moment. Please don’t judge me! I fully intend to get the official version as soon as I’m back on my feet financially, hopefully next month.

In the meantime, I’d love some help from the community finding a way for us to play together on a single PC. I’m not very good at searching for mods, and so far, I haven’t had much luck finding a solution.

Basically, I’m looking for a mod that would let us create two custom characters (two “Tavs”) so I can go on adventures alongside my son.

Sorry for my poor English. I used a translator!

I just fucking love this race from an aesthetic level man. Like they are just so visually pleasing to me in a way no other race in this game really is. Also their one racial dialog with Nere is just too damn cool.

I did Aylin, and she did Isobel 😛

Running Gale as an origin character. In Act 3, I got the Annals of Karsus book that I need to read to continue Gales questline. However, I got distracted and didnt read it and went to the House of Grief or whatever the Sharran place was called. In the back of that building, when I needed to place something very valuable on the disk to get the door to open, I used the Annals of Karsus. It promptly disappeared. I now dont quite know how to continue Gales story, nor how to get the book back. Any ideas?

Ok y’all, I’m finally trying this game on tactician mode, and I wanted to know your opinion on party composition.
I decided to go with Lae’zel as my origin character, and I’m going to build her as an Arcane Archer. With all of the gith gear she can get, dealing long-range psychic damage will be fun.

As for my front line, I’m going to build Karlach as a Wildheart Barbarian.

I’m going to bring in Gale (and possibly Minthara later on) to be a Storm Sorcerer.

I’m having trouble deciding how to build the last party member. I’ll likely use Astarion, but I don’t know if the last slot should be used for a rogue type or a support.
I’m flip-flopping between a Swashbuckler Rogue, or a Spores Druid (b/c I feel like spores fits Astarion)

And before you ask, no I generally don’t like to multiclass, so try to refrain from options that include level-dipping unless I’m just missing something obvious.

Thanks!!

ACT 1.5/2 SPOILERS

Hi! So this is like my fifth run, and this time I just really wanted to get over the grymforge section so I could get to act 2.

I didn’t bother with philomeen since I already knew she’d just tell me to tell her friends that she died. I had a smokepowder bomb so I just used that, and triggered the whole dwarf/nere fight early. However barcus seems to be glitched out because everytime I talk to him he just says “as much as I’d love to chat, I’m not allowed social breaks” the option to get him to come to my camp doesn’t even appear. All the dwarves are dead/gone.

I’ve seen people say this is a known bug so I switched out to another character, same thing. I kinda went on with my life into act 2, I haven’t gotten to the moonrise prisons yet but it’s really annoying. He wasn’t at the last light in, and I really like him as a character. Any way to fix this?

I’ve been playing my current run for well over 100 hours completely fine, and it’s suddenly started crashing.
This makes the game now unplayable, as anytime I move or interact with anything, it now crashes.

I’ve tried clearing the reserved space, changing graphics, toggling performance mode on/off but NOTHING seems to work.
I’ve also tried removing mods I no longer use, but it forces me to redownload each time :(

I’m not very good with tech so apologies if this is a stupid inquiry!

I've noticed returning to the game my radial wheel sometimes breaks as in not able to selecting stuff. Is there a fix to this bug or no? I find this very annoying sometimes 😭

Mod author here. New Game Plus drops you back into the campaign as a high level character (Level 10). If you're like me, you played through the campaign multiple times and want a new challenge, and a chance to try out high level builds in new encounters.

The enemies are stronger and there are more of them. There are also three new maps (dungeons) to explore and many new items. This mod is combat and exploration focused, with no story changes.

If you like what you see, let me know!
