Baldur's Gate 3 - Community Update #24: Looking To The Future - Steam News

Hello all, Since launching last month, a lot of tweaks and updates can already be seen in Baldur's Gate 3. Over the past few weeks we've chased down bugs, polished up some cinematics, and used your feedback to help organize our thoughts and inform our plans going forward. The first major patch just launched, solving over 1000 bugs to hopefully make Baldur’s Gate 3 an even better experience. But it was still a patch designed primarily to squash bugs. We want to go further than that.

The next patch for Baldur’s Gate 3 is supposed to include a lot of performance improvements, especially for Act 3. I know I’ve seen complaints in this community that the game runs too rough in act 3 on Deck to be a good experience, so this should be great news for people.

While I didn’t see it explicitly mentioned in this patch preview, FSR 2 support was previously announced to be added to the PC version in early September. I’m hoping between FSR 2 and the other improvements we’ll see a significant increase in the Deck BG3 experience.

    Not Deck related, but I hope it will also fix whatever the heck is going on with my desktop: still in act 1, but (I think) there’s a memory leak that causes it to stutter more and more, to the point where it can actually decide to take a second off between frames. Multiple times per minute. I don’t get it on Deck, so I get to choose between loud fan and modest graphics, or quiet 4K glory with a reminder I’ve been playing for a while… lol

      My deck is more reliable at booting at all. I’ve got some sort of issue happening. I’m not sure if my video card is going or something, it doesn’t like sharing memory, or what, but it crashes constantly on my PC.

      Steamdeck is worse performance, but at least I can play it…
