Patch 3 for Baldur's Gate 3 brought many good changes (https://www.destructoid.com/baldurs-gate-3-patch-3-arrives-a-teensy-bit-later-on-september-22/) with it. From the expected bug fixes to methods for altering the protagonist's appearance, there's plenty to like.


One less popular addition was giving the Sphynx His Majesty a regretful coat of fur. Until the patch, this rude and pompous cat had an illustrious mane of nothing, adding to his charm, and thankfully the latest hotfix (https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1086940/view/3716089610947840482) restores this.


Among the first changes noted on the hotfix's page was Larian Studio's wise decision to shave His Majesty. If anything, this hotfix primarily reverses controversial changes made in Patch 3 that fans haven't taken to.


A cat who is not His Majesty also saw changes. Another Sphynx named Steelclaw had her eye color adjusted to not be His Majesty's clone.


Another reversal made was with how inventory management occurred. Patch 3 introduced a shared inventory system where party members shared items they deemed important with the player upon dismissal. It proved to be a bit of a headache for players, so Larian reverted the change.


Not every change made is a reversal back to the Patch 2 settings. Alongside those are the general bug fixes that help generally improve the game's stability.


Among these are fixing several multiplayer-related crashes, namely when listening to dialogue after a roll and when reassigning characters in splitscreen. Other bugs fixed include preventing invalid saves from being created and Twitch drops not being claimable on PS5.


If there is anything to take away from this hotfix, it's that Larian Studios knows when to back down from a disliked change. His Majesty is as majestic as he is thanks to his lack of fur, and taking that away means taking his character away. May he remain forever rude and furless.
