The Baldur's Gate 3 patch notes didn't mention the most important change, but players sure found it: penis physics

BG3 Bard class.

Baldur's Gate 3 patch 5 was jam-packed with big gameplay features like a punishing new difficulty tier, a D&D-inspired custom mode, an expanded epilogue for the core characters, and a long-awaited inventory fix. One thing the mammoth patch notes didn't mention was enhanced penis physics, but the RPG's tirelessly horny community spotted this change almost instantly and wasted no time putting these physically simulated bits through their paces.

Other players were quick to share some NSFW videos demonstrating the change, which looks exactly how you'd expect.

"So... I play with my male characters completely nude," admits another. "Don't judge me. Anyone else notice they have new physics? Like their dangling parts now swing back and forth as they run, walk, or even with the wind. I love it."

"Booting up the game today and discovering there is now cock jiggling, I was sat grinning and chuckling, spinning my character around, making his handy tool flying in the wind," adds another. The whole Baldur's Gate 3 subreddit is currently full of posts like this, and Larian's clearly enjoying the chaos.
