Baldur’s Gate 3 player discovers “most useless” setting after 80 hours
Larian StudiosOne Baldur’s Gate 3 player has discovered what they’re calling the “most useless” setting in the game after 80 hours of gameplay.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is an extensive game, filled with tons of settings for players to manipulate — from texture quality to depth of field, and so much more. Naturally, most of these settings are pretty useful for many players, and it give them the chance to alter the game so their PC runs it better or adjust things to their specific tastes.
However, while most settings are useful, there’s one that stands out as being pretty “useless” and after one Baldur’s Gate 3 player spotted the setting, fans can’t get over its questionable addition.
Baldur’s Gate 3 players question “useless” setting
Sharing their discovery on Reddit, one user highlighted how “this feels like the most useless graphics setting ever” revealing the Cloud Quality graphics setting.
“Because you can’t look up, I don’t think I’ve seen a cloud in the 80 hours I’ve spent in this game so far” they added, proving just how odd it is to see such an attention to detail.
Other players were baffled too, and shared their thoughts in the comments: “YES! I always ask myself that. Why the F this setting even exists….”
Another joked about the setting: “There are clouds in the game.” Thankfully, you do see clouds occasionally during cutscenes but due to depth they’ll usually be blurry, so that doesn’t make the setting too useful.
However, one user highlighted just what the cloud setting could mean: “I believe this is referring to effect clouds created from spells and such. Poison clouds, noxious fumes, Fog Cloud, etc.” While this certainly makes sense, it’s not too detailed during the setting explanation.
Either way, as well as using it for spells, using a handy camera mod for the game could be an ideal way to make this poor setting get a little more love.
