"Baldur's Gate 3: Navigating Bugs, Performance, and Cross-Save Solutions on Consoles"
A Baldur's Gate 3 player encountered a game-breaking bug in Honour Mode where they were unable to progress after accidentally leaving the Orphic Hammer behind, which is essential for a late-game event. The bug prevented the backup scene with Raphael from triggering, leaving the player softlocked in the Astral Prism sequence. The issue was so severe that the player had to resort to using PC mods to continue, raising concerns among the community and highlighting the need for a fix from developer Larian Studios, especially for console players who cannot use mods.
