Latest Baldur's Gate 3 hotfix makes His Majesty the cat bald once again

To unlock the Returning Pike in , players have to follow some specific actions, though it is not too hard. The only issue is knowing where to look and getting past a few Charisma-based checks to avoid starting a conflict. The Returning Pike is an Uncommon weapon that can be found early on in the game, as it is part of Act 1. Aside from having pretty good offensive stats, especially during the game's first stages, it has a special skill called Homing Weapon.

One Baldur’s Gate 3 player made a grave mistake and accidentally got their cat arrested for murder, (In-game, I should add), effectively one-upping the spontaneous weirdness of Skyrim’s NPCs. 

has impressed everyone with its complex and interweaving story, where even the tiniest of decisions can have an impact on the plot. In a world with so many places to explore and characters to meet, it’s little wonder that sometimes the smallest things can lead to unforeseen consequences. From unexpected quests to surprising allies for the final battle, really does deliver on the promise that choices matter.

While venturing through Act 1, players may stumble across the option to free the artist Oskar Fevras in or simply leave him to his fate at the hands of the Zhentarim. This, like many others in the game, seems like a rather inconsequential decision to make, but one that eventually connects to a larger side quest, much later in the game, however. This is one of the essential quests before Act 2, even if it does seem like something worth missing out on initially. The decision to free him may seem difficult, mainly because it can cost a meaningful amount of gold.

Baldur's Gate 3's third patch made a ton of changes, but not all of them went down well with the playerbase. One of them was a fix for something we didn't even know was a bug - His Majesty being a hairless cat. Turns out, he was always meant to have fur, so the patch added that back in. But fans were so furious that Larian Studios had to U-Turn, shaving His Majesty once more.
