Baldur's Gate 3 hotfix makes Minthara a little more willing to follow the party

Larian has released another Baldur's Gate 3 hotfix across PC, PS5 and Mac. It is expected to arrive on Xbox at a later date.

This hotfix takes aim at several bugs and quirks still lingering in Baldur's Gate 3. This includes a fix for banding and shader issues in cinematics and those times characters claimed to be too busy to talk to you. «They were lying,» Larian explained.

Meanwhile, Minthara should no longer refuse to follow along with the party in Acts 2 and 3. In the developer's own words: «You should find her more willing to fall in line now — at least in terms of keeping up. She's still something of a free spirit.»
