168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Larian Studios is no stranger to fan service; and the studio has once again proved they "know their audience" with 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Baldur's Gate 3's final animated short, released to celebrate the game's eighth and fin🅷al patch.

The animation casts the beloved party of Baldur's Gate 3 in the role of gamers playing an online fantasy game.

The Hothead

Karlach's opening animation has garnered particular attention as it depicts the tiefling sunbathing,✤ using her infer🅰nal engine to cook a sausage and two burger patties on her abdomen. I don't need to tell you what shape a sausage and two circular patties makes, I'll leave you ponder that yourself.

In a Reddit thread by , they posted an image with the caption "The Baldur's Gate 3 final patch animated short better not awaken anything in me" accompanied by the image of Karlach s🗹unbathing. Considering some of the things that Karlach herself says in-game, none of these fan reactions are out-of-step with the charac🐬ter herself.

The end of the animation shows each of the characters in their casual attire🍰 playing the aforementioned online game. After having their loot stolen by the avatar of Larian head, Swen Vincke, the party resolves to go on "one more adventure." It's then revealed that Shadowheart and Karlach are roommates, a clip that's sure to delight Karlach and Shadowheart shippers.

It's unknown if we're going to get any future animations, but considering Larian is 𒀰moving on from Baldur's Gate 3 to tw🔴o new unannounced projects. It seems unlikely.

As for Patch 8, it's officially live. The patch adds photo mode, full crossplay between platforms and a new subclass for each of the game's classes. Larian has assured the community that Patch 8 is the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:final major patch for the game, and it seems the studio is serious this time.
