However, it now looks like Nvidia will be releasing an RTX 4090 D, specifically for China, that will be exempt from the restriction.

Baldur's Gate 3, despite being brilliant well-written, is a very buggy game. A lot of that is down to it having so many moving parts, and most of them are harmless, but there's a nasty bug going around right now that stops NPCs from starting their cutscenes if they've been silenced.
