Baldur’s Gate 3 may be a fantastic fantasy RPG, but Larian Studios also decided to follow an annoying PC gaming trend that could have been avoided.

    I am going to try this tomorrow. But I have to figure out a way to default to Vulkan without launcher.

      You can change your launch options to "install location/bin/bg3.exe" %command% to both disable the launcher and launch in vulkan mode. Use bg3_dx11.exe for the dx11 version.

      However, use caution, when I tried this, it did launch without launcher using Vulkan, but I didn’t have access to my saves for some reason. I switched back and may saves are back again. So, not sure what’s up with that.

        That is strange. I will try it tomorrow and report back. Thanks!

          It didn’t work for me. But thanks for trying. I will keep selecting Vulkan and play each time I launch it

      There might be another command line option for using vk instead of dx. I’m not sure of that though.
