Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 bug swaps a tiny Astarion for a hamster Larian StudiosA Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player is experiencing a mod-fueled series of bugs that keep swapping character models in the game. The best one yet is one that gave them a tiny Astarion in place of Boo the hamster. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 is host to a bunch of memorable characters but none more so than the game\u2019s suite of Companions. Among them, Astarion is certainly the favorite, at least as far as fan fiction numbers go. Even the vampiric High Elf\u2019s award-winning voice actor had no idea that the character would become so beloved. The only character in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 more lovable than Astarion might be Minsc\u2019s adorable little hamster Boo. Thanks to a peculiar bug that may have been caused by some mod usage, we have the best of both. Reddit user u\/TylerBourbon posted a screenshot of their current run in which Misc was holding a tiny Asterion whose character model was somehow swapped with his famous pet. \u201cMy current play-through has been littered with character models being swapped out during \u201ccut scenes\u201d and this by far is the most bizarre,\u201d the player explained. \u201cBoo has been replaced by a tiny Astarion who has some sort of massive poofy dress version of his armor.\u201d They have admitted to using a suite of mods but to this point, those mods hadn\u2019t impacted any previous playthroughs. Oddly enough, other players don\u2019t think they should endeavor to fix the issue because the result is just too funny. \u201cI would\u2019ve suggested you reinstall, but I think you\u2019ve just stumbled upon pure perfection,\u201d one player noted. \u201cI can\u2019t imagine what happened, and while I hope it fixes itself, part of me is wishing it doesn\u2019t,\u201d another replied. The birth of what we\u2019re calling Hamstarion is a joyous occasion for most onlookers but u\/TylerBourbon has apparently identified the source of the issue and is going to rectify it by uninstalling the mod responsible. The phenomenon caused a lot of questions among players who saw this particular model swap in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 but one is the most pertinent of all. \u201cMy only question is where is the Astarion-sized Boo?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
