Baldur's Gate 3 has had an impressive beginning, surpassing all previous PC game ratings. It has achieved unprecedented success on Steam, with a record-breaking 875,343 players simultaneously engaged on August 14. Undoubtedly, this game has set a new standard for future RPGs.
A Reddit user named jixxor has created a thread to warn Baldur's Gate 3 players about a bug they noticed during a co-op play session. This bug causes loot to be missing until the player interacts with a container. The "Loot All" button does not pick up these missing items, so players have to manually check containers by holding down ALT to see if they are empty. They should try dragging an item from their inventory to containers to see if any loot appears. This bug can have a significant impact on players' progress in the game and cause them to miss out on valuable items. Many fellow players in the Reddit thread have confirmed experiencing the same bug, with some stating that it negatively affects everyone. Some players were not aware of the bug until they saw the Reddit post.
As Baldur's Gate 3 is currently being launched, several players have encountered frustrating bugs that have affected their gameplay. Thankfully, Larian Studios has released a hotfix update that addresses more than 200 bugs and technical issues in Baldur's Gate 3. Hopefully, the recently discovered problem with missing items in containers will be resolved soon.
Baldur's Gate 3 players have faced various issues since the game released on PC in early August.
