Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 8 may have restored Cut Minthara content by mistake

Some Baldur's Gate 3 Players online have noticed that the latest patch 8 may have restored some cut Minthara content. While the added Minthara content is definitely new in patch 8, it remains to be seen if Larian added it Baldur's Gate 3 on purpose.

In all games on the scale Baldur's Gate 3There will certainly be lots of cut content that did not make it the game in time for release. Because of the game's popularity, players are of course curious about Baldur's Gate 3Cut content, and Larian has deliberately used much of it in their launch matches. Some content is cut for various reasons, rather than just being unfinished – sometimes it just doesn't fit the direction of the game.

Baldur's Gate Fan creates a tabletop version of the game

A Baldur's Gate fan builds a copy of one of the franchise's most famous places in an quest to create a table version of the game.

As first reported by the player it seems as if Baldur's Gate 3'S Patch 8 has restored an important dialogue about Mintharas Backstory. A Youtube video by the user FINRAGUND shows that when she uses “Speak with Dead” -Stava on Mintharas corpses, she now mentions to have a daughter. This is never mentioned anywhere else in the game, and it is not clear if she talks about an existing or unbearable child. There are many answers that she gives under “Speak with Dead” that, after patch 8, now refers to this child and raises more questions than answers.

Baldur's Gate 3 restores Minthara Child Dialogue

This seems to be the only area where this Baldur's Gate 3 The Minthara content has been restored. It was previously known that there is unused dialogue in the game files with companions who recognize that Minthara became pregnant under the game's story, although none of this has been resumed in Patch 8. This then raises the question of whether Larian has unintentionally reactivated this Minthara-child-dialog, since the game currently lacks the whole context for it to know you.

Larian is largely finished with Baldur's Gate 3With development on its next title now. The studio keeps its cards near the chest for its next project, although it follows the critical and commercial success with Baldur's Gate 3There will undoubtedly be a legion of the hard fans ready and waiting to see what it is doing next. Fans should not expect to hear from the studio for a while yet, with the extent of Lariana titles that require a lot of time to complete.
