After the large Patch 03 for Baldur’s Gate 3 released, most players were unhappy with many of the changes. Although Larian Studios’ latest title has a highly positive audience behind it, this was the first patch that left players disappointed. The developers listened, and Baldur’s Gate 3’s latest Hotfix #8, it removed shared stash, among a few other issues after many player complaints.
While there were issues that some could deem trivial from the latest Patch 03, Raphael’s bad dye job and His Majesty’s hair growing back genuinely upset some players. Previously, His Majesty was a Sphynx cat, which fit his prickly personality. But after Patch 03, he suddenly had hair, making him unrecognizable. The same went for Raphael, who suddenly had black hair, which didn’t really look right.
But the biggest change of Hotfix #8 was Larian Studios removing shared stash. Once Patch 03 came along, each time you dismissed your companions, they would give you their key items. This got highly annoying, since bringing them back on your team wouldn’t automatically give them back. Many players took to Reddit to discuss how annoying it was to carry around their companions’ keys and bags.

Now with Hotfix #8, Larian Studios heard everyone’s pleas and removed shared stash altogether. It’s really nice to see a game studio genuinely listen to player feedback and revert changes, even after it probably spent a bit of time working on a feature. Personally, I think I shows that the developers are not afraid to admit when they’re wrong about new features. Sometimes all you need is some player testing to realize whether something is good or not.
Larian Studios, over the course of Baldur’s Gate 3’s Early Access, were known to be keen listeners to player feedback. The developers very much still care about what the players think, which we can clearly see from this Hotfix.

Redfall was released in May of this year, and it seems like the game hasn’t found its footing quite yet. You can argue that, at this point, the game will not turn itself around. However, the developers have just released a brand new update to the game after reports started to recently surface that the game is on a fast decline in players. This new update could potentially persuade some players to jump back into the game and pick it up for the first time. Included in the update is performance mode that will unlock 60 FPS.

If Starbreeze themselves were actually a Payday 3 heisting team I suspect they'd be verging on putting money back into the vault at this stage - retracing their steps with bulging duffel bags, while apologising to security guards not so much for the whole bank robbery thing as for smashing so many utilities on their way out. Shortly after announcing plans to make the four-player PvE shooter less online-dependent, the developers have announced that they're also reworking Payday 3's much-reviled progression system.
Larian have released a new Baldur's Gate 3 update which - in news that will surely lead to V-Day-style mass celebrations throughout the forts and dungeons of Faerûn - removes the loathed shared stash system introduced by Patch 3, which caused companions to dump their entire inventories on you when dismissed. The new patch reverts companion behaviour to their pre-Patch 3 behaviour, for a less frustrating RPG experience. In even more momentous tidings, it re-shaves that cat everybody loves. Ah, videogames.
