Baldur's Gate 3

Not playable for me

Prior to a March patch was able to progress and enjoy the game. Graphics were solid, but I loved BG2 and Diablo. After that patch could not longer play for a few minutes without a crash taking out my PC. It wasnt a matter of the game crashing, I had to do hard reboots. I removed and reinstalled NVIDIA drivers (have a 1080 GTX with 850W Corsair Power Supply on an i7 6600K). My system can handle other games no problem. I also removed and reinstalled the game, turned off antivirus and so on. Nothing works. I would get to a few minutes of playing and crash. I was already pretty deep into the game and have already seen large fights, different environments. Just post patch not playable. I waited 2 months for more patches to come out. Once more I reinstalled GOG and BG3. This time, I am crashing at the player creation or load game screen. After putting a lot of strain on my system with hard reboots and spending too much of my time trouble shooting, I am moving on. How others play the game, I dont know. My system is clean and is only for media and gaming, no bloatware. I can understand an early access game. I have been gaming for 30 years. Early access should be bugs, not full content, no prob. But this game takes out my PC either under Vulkan or Direct X mode. It causes me to have to reinstall NVDIA when no other game does You can point to the drivers as an issue, but the fact is they work for other games, not this. I regret buying this game.
