Interesting. Very definite improvement in graphics. Some changes in cutscenes and dialogues. Combats are feeling a little more challenging.

many of the old bugs are still there which is a little disappointing

the graphics have been polished again and that is great if you have a high end Gpu but will add extra lag on older systems so if your game crashes at the story vids you know to turn things down a bit... the camera is much better but still a pain to aim sometimes and they finally dropped the silly high ground rule [for a different one]

overall I like the Sorcerer because yes the Wizard still learns any spell he can find a scroll for [like Orb] but the Sorcerer gets to play with those spells making then last longer or have extra range so it feels like a different take

worth the massive download... you tell me?

Thanks

The 'complete install' offline installers are showing: 4.1.1.1302024, which would seem to be a later version (but no patch to get there). I wonder if Galaxy and Offline installers have separate version numbers (seems odd to me).

what they [Gog] have decided to call 4.1.1.1302024 is in fact v4.1.1.1301812 as you will see printed on the bottom of the load page after you fire up the ui

Assuming you use the Windows off line installer its actually 1812 that gets installed and that is the latest build... Mac users still have to wait along with Stadia or Linux users

^Ah, okay - thanks :)
I'll hang on a little longer and see if a patch shows up. If it's not here by weekend, I'll probably download the full version.

Since Larian recommended running a verify/repair after installing the update, you might be better off doing the full version download anyway.

I'm on mac. Anybody know when the patch will be available for GOG users on mac? excited to try the new sorcerer class.

Larian will make a post when they have it ready for Mac and Stadia

Fair point.

^Further to this, and in case anyone else faces the same problem:

Tried downloading the full install (Patch 6 HF1 version) - BG3 crashed on loading (right after launcher). Tried patching that with HF2 when it came out and got the same result.

I then completely uninstalled BG3, including save games (can't transfer them from Patch 5 anyway) and profiles.

Then I reinstalled from the offline installers (Full HF2 version) and hey presto, it's working again - Yay!
