Latest Baldur's Gate 3 update fixes the shared stash issue and re-shaves the cat

rockpapershotgun.com:

Larian have released a new Baldur's Gate 3 update which - in news that will surely lead to V-Day-style mass celebrations throughout the forts and dungeons of Faerûn - removes the loathed shared stash system introduced by Patch 3, which caused companions to dump their entire inventories on you when dismissed. The new patch reverts companion behaviour to their pre-Patch 3 behaviour, for a less frustrating RPG experience. In even more momentous tidings, it re-shaves that cat everybody loves. Ah, videogames.

"Have your companions taken to weighing you down physically as well as emotionally?" reads some cheeky accompanying text. "We looked into your reports and have restored their Patch 2 behaviour. When dismissed, they will no longer give you all the items they deem important for you to carry, like a toddler in a grocery store.

"More importantly, we shaved His Majesty."

If you're new to the cat situation, "His Majesty" is a pompous feline you encounter outside a certain inn. You can chat with him using Speak With Animals. Patch 3 rudely encumbered this magnificent creature with a billowing fur coat and whiskers, outraging players. The latest hotfix restores His Majesty to his original, hairless splendour. Here are some before and after shots - which do you prefer?

Live now, the update is one of those hotfix updates, which is to say it's mostly about smaller bugs, crashes and visual issues. And fashion emergencies. And disco ball Githyanki. Find the full changelog below.

- Companions will no longer transfer story items in their inventory to the player upon dismissal, restoring Patch 2 behaviour.

- Fixed reaction popups sometimes showing no text descriptions of the reactions available.

- Fixed a multiplayer crash that
