Is it worth updating to 1.05 if you are about to finish the game?

[Gunnar.Maluf]

Hello all,

 

 

I did all companion quests, lots of sidequests,  all bounty quests, the whole stronghold, and I just need to fall a pit to meet Thaos ( when I was still leveling up I went down the pit and was surprised to meet Thaos). So my doubt is since I just need to face Thaos, is it worth updating the game just for that last fight?

I wouldn't update it if I were you. 

 

Save the update for your next playthrough. I finished the game with launch version even though before I finished 1.03 was released. I wasn't experience game breaking bugs and I was already deep in the game so there was no reason to alter that playthrough.

Finish the game, then update.

1.05 is not compatible with old saves AFAIK

1.05 merely *upgrades* saves, so you can't go back easily (the game keeps a backup, though).

Why in the world would you not update? The patch doesn't affect your save game availability, you can keep going just like normal. And there's a lot of quality of life changes in 1.05.

Because it changes a lot of spells, scrolls etc. and it could kill a strategy I use for example. I finished the game then updated .

I used the same strategy people use in the Adra Dragon fight, and it made the end fight a breeze.

 

Now I wanna play my second round
