A fascinating yet disappointing Starfieldbug has been discovered, which causes playthroughs to become more unstable the longer they go on.
Can you beat Baldur's Gate 3 without taking a single long rest? Maybe, but one player's proven that it turns the RPG into a nightmare
25.11.2023 - 16:29 / gamesradar.com
Long resting is pretty much necessary in Baldur’s Gate 3 since it restores health, resets skill slots, and y’know, is mandatory for progressing through multiple quests. One content creator ignored all of that and instead challenged themselves to complete the mammoth RPG without long rest.
Is it possible? Maybe, but sleepless nights lead to waking nightmares (aka a massive headache.) YouTuber Fracture completed the entirety of Act 1 with almost no long rests. There is one mandatory long rest in the first Act, but Fracture fully healed his party before resting and used his skills upon waking - so his party didn’t feel the effects of sleeping anyway.
Elsewhere, the content creator got through the opening hours by cheesing everything. Everything. The first four levels were reached by avoiding combat wherever possible and talking through problems. Mandatory fights were completed in the most efficient ways possible - pushing foes off ledges, reanimating a spider matriarch, and explosive barrels were all fair game. Basically, anything that saved on healing potions was highly encouraged.
The ‘No Long Rests Run’ makes for an incredibly entertaining watch, purely because Fracture employs tactics that most players would never have to dream up. He tiptoes around challenges and maximizes efficiency to pull off some really creative plays that I’ll definitely be using in my next playthrough.
Other players have given themselves slightly similar challenges, such as the pacifist who went 20 hours without attacking anything thanks to popular speedrunning strategies. Another streamer fought the game’s hardest boss solo and killed it in one turn.

Can You Keep Playing Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora After Beating The Game?
offers an expansive adventure on an alien moon, but there's always the question of just what happens after the credits roll. Not only does the game have a story of its own to tell, it also has obligations to a multi-billion-dollar blockbuster film franchise, which could theoretically impose certain limitations on the experience that players are allowed to have within its world. With a surplus of side content, wondering whether it's possible to return and check everything off might cast a shadow over a playthrough.

Lego Fortnite - can you sleep and skip the night?
Lego Fortnite can be a little bit overwhelming at first, but luckily you'll get some help from Cuddle Team Leader. There's a small tutorial to work through, guiding you from building your first shelter to crafting stronger tools and weapons. We suggest getting a Lumber Mill built and then working on crafting a sword.
