D&D: New Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch Stops NPCs From Rising From Death
A new hotfix is out for Baldur’s Gate 3 and with it comes a host of changes to NPC behaviors–now they’re braver, bolder, and will stop coming back to life.
Are you troubled by NPCs rising from the dead after you talk to them? Or of the world getting fed up with your criminality and deciding to simply shut down? Well if you are, then odds are good you’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate 3 as of late, but haven’t yet updated to the latest patch.
After a recent hotfix though, you can thieve and murder to your heart’s content, the latest hotfix tackles issues big and small, from NPCs running away after you turn into a badger, to the game crashing because you committed too many crimes. Though if you have crashed the game because of your larceny, you’re probably living life to the fullest, so there’s that at least.
Let’s take a look at what’s in the new hotfix, released this past weekend.
