• Runes might refer to specific types of magical inscriptions or enchantments that players can apply to their equipment.
• Tattoos or Markings: Some cultures in the world of Faerûn, where Baldur's Gate 3 is set, use magical tattoos or rune-like markings that grant the bearer specific abilities or protections.

• New NPC: Varis the Runesmith. A morally grey, eccentric artificer who crash-landed near the Emerald Grove. He reveals that the Mind Flayers weren't just colonizing; they were searching for the "Source Code" of the universe.
• The Hook: Players can now find "Blank Runes" throughout the world. Carving them allows for powerful, build-altering buffs (e.g., "Gain an extra Bonus Action," "Immunity to Necrotic damage"). However, using them creates "Glitch Entities"—distorted, shadowy versions of enemies that hunt the party.

1. Destroy the Console: The Rune mechanic fades, and the world is safe but mundane. A bittersweet ending where magic becomes weaker.
2. Claim the Console: The player becomes the "Architect." They can rewrite the ending—save the Goblins, destroy the Grove, or resurrect dead companions. However, the ending implies a new threat: The Player has become a Tyrant of Code.
3. The "Glitch" Ending: If the player used Runes too frequently, they can choose to break the world entirely, unleashing chaos where physics no longer apply, leading to a sandbox "post-game" mode where anything is possible.

Dependency Management: The update fixed issues with mod dependencies not loading in the correct order, which previously led to game crashes or broken UI.

Compatibility: Cross-Play & Save Files

Cross-Play:

• PC to Mac: Working, but both must be on v4.1.1.6072089 or higher.
• PC to PS5: Not yet functional. This patch is PC-only as of this writing. PS5 remains on v4.1.1.6072000.
• Steam Deck: The patch actually improves performance on Deck by 5 FPS in Act 3, but the UI scaling for the rune-crafting menu is now slightly misaligned (fixed via a community layout).
