You can also clean your grimey companions with soap, praise Mystra.
Baldur’s Gate 3 just received its fourth major patch. Once more, the thing’s big enough to break the Steam notes. While there aren’t any new major features—like the third patch’s appearance-changing mirror or, equally as important, letting small characters kiss Karlach—it’s still packed with changes.
A huge quality of life improvement comes in the form of some much needed personal hygiene. You can now use sponges and soap to wash the grime off your party members—which is nice, since Baldur’s Gate 3 features Dragon Age: Origins levels of blood splatter which, while immersive, does undercut more sensitive moments by saddling you and your crew with axe murderer vibes.
Another gamechanger: when purchasing a statue from Boney in the Circus of the Last Days, you now have your choice of modesty—fully armoured, camp clothes, or butt naked. I’ll be disappointed if you don’t get any unique dialogues for just plonking down your bare hind, rendered lovingly in stone.
