Run held the second “Panel from Hell“, Where she shared the details of the fourth major patch Baldur’s Gate III – in scale it surpasses the three previous ones combined.
The key innovation will be a new class – Druid… A huge amount of fresh dialogue was recorded for him, so that when playing as a nature mage, the narrative would be at the same high level as when playing for other classes and races.
The druid has about 30 of his own spells and skills, including the ability to transform into different animals like an angry wolf, polar bear, spider, raven, cat or badger – each form, of which there are 8, allows you to solve problems in unique ways.
«The bear won’t let you pass? Then transform into a bear and talk to him in his language!»

In addition, when playing as a druid, you can use a mind flayer to transform into a mysterious Aberrant form.

Traditionally, for Larian games, different classes and races open up different ways to resolve certain situations – the druid will not be an exception. The developers especially advise visiting the Druid Grove as one of them.
At the release of the patch, players will be able to create their own druid from two circles – the Old Believers from “circle of earth“Who receive bonuses to a certain type of magic, or wildlife protectors from”circle of the moon”That handle transformations much better.
In addition to this, after installing the patch, players will have a few more pleasant surprises. First, the new dice roll system – now the chances of getting very bad or very good results in a row are noticeably reduced. Also, the rolls in dialogues and battles are fundamentally different.
Second, the studio has worked on improving cinematic scenes, including animations, camera angles, lighting and other visual aspects. In addition, you can now join the dialogue as an animal.

Thirdly, now in multiplayer you can watch equipment, inventory and spells of other players. Moreover, if you wish, you can steal something from your friends’ inventory – “blocking” inventory from other users will be added in subsequent patches.
Fourthly, you can now select friendly and hostile characters through the interface – for example, by clicking on portraits. In addition, the team has done a lot of work on other improvements and, of course, fixed hundreds of bugs.
