I think Larian really did sneak schlong physics into Baldur's Gate 3 without telling anybody

The latest patch of Baldur's Gate 3 has a lot of quality-of-life updates.

Baldur's Gate 3’s latest patch has finally made beloved community meme Bing Bong canon

Baldur's Gate 3’s fifth patch came with a massive haul of updates and additions, but perhaps the one that’s got players most excited is a tiny new line that makes an Imp named Bing Bong canon.
