Baldur's Gate 3's first hotfix addresses more than 150 issues including that nasty savegame bug

pcgamer.com:

Baldur's Gate 3 has had a pretty smooth launch overall, which is especially impressive given how expansive and complex it is. But no game ships bug-free, and Larians' big RPG is no exception—and so today the studio has rolled out the first hotfix, which clears up more than 150 «bugs and issues.»

One rare but nasty bug that came to light earlier today was preventing players from saving or loading their game, which is obviously a big problem in a massive game like this. Today's hotfix doesn't fully fix that issue, but it does (or at least should) keep it from happening anymore: Larian said the problem is related to cross-saves, and since there's no need for cross-save functionality until the PlayStation 5 version comes out on September 5, it's disabled the option entirely and will fix it between now and then. Larian said players shouldn't notice any difference in the game, and Steam Cloud saves will be unaffected.

«Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to report these issues to us,» Larian said. «As always,reach out to our support team if you run into trouble.

»And please keep showing us your Tavs and their adventures in the Forgotten Realms! We’ve been waiting for so long to see what you get up to."

Thank you for reporting these issues to us, please remember that the best way to get reports to the team is to submit them through our support page: https://t.co/NO0zhTdvsFAugust 4, 2023

The spoilers are covered up in the patch notes on Steam, but out
