In a twist of events, the infamous portrait glitch that plagued Baldur’s Gate 3 has re-emerged, raising concerns among players and Larian Studios alike. Previously addressed in a recent patch, the issue remains stubbornly persistent. Many players have shared screenshots on the BG3 subreddit showcasing their companions in peculiar poses, resembling expressions typically seen in driver’s license photos.

Recent Developments

Despite a ‘room temperature hotfix’ implemented by Larian on July 31st, where they claimed to have fixed the issue, players report that the portraits have reverted to their glitchy state, with characters looking confused and misplaced in their frames. This glitch has become an endearing nuisance among fans, with some players even embracing the quirky look.

Larian has openly acknowledged the issue, and the wording of their fix suggested it might not be entirely resolved, leading to mixed reactions from the gaming community. Some users have humorously remarked that the portraits add character to their gameplay experience.

Conclusion

It seems this glitch is here to stay for a while longer, forming a unique bond with the game’s community, where many find it more charming than bothersome. The phrase “What is dead may never die” echoes the sentiment that this beloved bug may continue to haunt players, much to their amusement.
