      BG3 was basically unplayable for us for about 2 weeks post 1.0

      But also, we really wanted to only play co-op, and the bugs were mostly online related, which is arguably more forgivable.

      But still, hard crashing or freezing every 15 minutes for one of the three of us sucked, and looking at support forums, wasn’t uncommon either.
