South Park shows Baldur’s Gate 3 in the latest episode, makes serious mistakes – developers correct immediately

earthpressnews

The cartoon series South Park is known for repeatedly addressing current topics. Mostly to exaggerate and satirize them. Now the series has included the game Baldur’s Gate 3 – unfortunately with a factual error that the developers don’t want to let go.

This is what happens as a result:

  • In the latest episode, new characters from an alternative universe appear. The four protagonists (Kenny, Kyle, Stan and Cartman) are replaced by “diverse” women.
  • The series wants to allude to Disney’s “token” diversity and criticizes the fact that people of color are sometimes only included in films so that they are there.
  • The various version of Cartman enjoys playing Baldur’s Gate 3, but apparently there are problems with the save status.

    This is the error: In one scene, Cartman wants to start the game and is asked to start a new save. The old one is no longer available, but over 50 hours have already been invested there.

    Cartman is annoyed: “There’s no cross-dimensional save function?!”, whereupon Stan explains that there isn’t even cross-save between PS5 and PC. Saving between universes is asking too much.

    On This only didn’t work during the release because the PC version was released earlier and there were problems with the Larian Launcher until shortly after it was released.

    The release on PS5 has already fixed a number of errors:

    South Park and video games – a love that keeps rekindling

    The creators of South Park have already incorporated a number of references to video games and gaming into their series. Probably the most famous scene is the scene in which the four boys play World of Warcraft in Cartman’s basement.

    Back then it was all about taking down a nasty ganker. The four of them only killed wild boars in the starting area for days in order to level up and received a sword directly from Blizzard, which actually made it into the game.

    The wild boar joke has been around for years. In WoW Classic, someone even copied the idea and only killed wild boars for 10 days. Here, too, there are errors in the series. Because at some point, opponents below your level simply no longer give experience points.

    Other series have also tried gaming jokes or innuendos. The famous Leeroy Jenkins, for example, got his own scene in Family Guy, but wasn’t very successful:
