Baldur's Gate 3 Update Gives You A Hangover If You Keep Resting With Alcohol

thegamer.com:

Baldur's Gate 3's highly-anticipated Patch 6 has added in a new Hungover condition that is sure to make it even easier to roleplay as your character.

Anyone who has played Baldur's Gate 3 would likely agree that it's one of the best roleplaying games out there and that you can really make your character do just about anything you want them to. There's one thing that's been missing, though - the ability to have a raging headache, regret all your actions from the night before, and have the urge for anything greasy.

I am, of course, talking about having a hangover, something that previously couldn't happen to your Tav. While you could get a Drunk status effect from drinking alcohol that had some negative effects, everyone in Baldur's Gate 3 previously was much better at holding their drink than I am, as they would never get a hangover.

That's no longer the case thanks to Patch 6, which just went live today. Although the highlight of the update is all the new smooching that has been added to the game, the patch notes reveal a bunch of other new things that have been added to the game, including a depressingly realistic status condition.

That status condition is called "Hungover" and is applied to your character for 10 turns if you Long Rest while only using alcoholic drinks as camp supplies. That means that only feeding your camp whatever wine and rum you've found in your Baldur's Gate 3 adventures will lead to them all being Hungover for a fairly decent amount of time.

"If you Long Rest with only alcohol as camp supplies, you will now get the new Hungover condition for 10 turns."

The patch notes don't reveal what the Hungover condition actually does to the party right now, but I can say from experience that it can't be anything good. It's worth noting that the Alcohol condition causes players to have a disadvantage on any Dexterity and Charisma checks, so it's likely that it'll be something similar with the Hungover condition.

That being said, considering how difficult
