It should be free if they want to "correct the past"

The huge update that completely rebalances the game, improves UI, and changes the gear system is free. As for PL itself, I'll happily continue BG3 until the hype dies down and I get a feel for whether it's actually worthwhile.

The system requirements have also been kicked through the roof for that update. Pffft, optimization, never heard of it!

Upgrading your system to play the update isn't "free."

The game runs the same or better on the hardware I have after the 2.0 patch. There are just more options to use, and thus the recommended has increased.

I did not know that, I got a 2080 in the lead-up hype to initial release, don't think I'll be doing an upgrade just for this.

It seems to run as well as it did before, if not better. Ryzen 5 3600 / GTX 1660 / 32GB 3600Mhz.
