On the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit, gamers are compiling a list of all the issues they discovered in the latest patch. In rare circumstances, it prevents the accomplishment of certain jobs and quests, since some NPCs refuse to transfer to new areas.

At worst, some players claim that they have been barred from finishing Act 2 fully since the game does not allow them to complete the Gauntlet of Shar.
This list, compiled by BroGameTime on Reddit, divides the bugs into several acts and tasks. Right now, it appears that the issues that impede progression are generally discovered before Act 3, making it tough for people who have just begun new playthroughs.
There are several flaws mentioned in this topic, with the most severe possibly being the difficulties identified in the Gauntlet of Shar, which would prevent you from finishing Act 2. However, some may prevent you from completing other significant tasks, at least with the intended ending.
For example, at least one player has claimed that they can’t finish the Cazador fight without murdering one of the spawns, which would prevent you from becoming Astarion the Vampire Ascendant if that’s the route you intended to follow.
Aside from that, some players have reported being unable to engage with two Act 1 NPCs: Nettie in the Druid Grove and Abdirak in the Goblin Camp. The former is far more important, as Nettie is one of the persons who will take you to Halsin.
There have also been several reports of gameplay-related difficulties. For starters, gamers report that multi-selecting things have been disabled, making it more difficult to sell a large quantity of goods at once.
It also appears that we are unable to sell all of our products at once, just those in the inventory of the character now open. On the console, users also report that the group conceals feature is broken, making creeping about much more difficult than it should be.
Larian has yet to reply to these bug complaints, but it has previously issued fresh updates when a patch created flaws, so we may expect a hotfix to be available shortly.
