If you maintain a relatively small primary Windows install partition and put most of your data on a secondary SSD, a few unexpected gigs is significant cargo. I haven’t found a way to tell Baldur’s Gate 3 to use a different save directory, but you can archive save files on another drive if you want to clear up space on your main drive without deleting them altogether. <\/p>\n
You can also share Baldur’s Gate 3 saves with other people if you want to give them a peek into your campaign, or let someone else take over the hosting of co-op sessions.

That doesn’t help habitual manual savers like me, though.<\/p>\n
Now you can back up the dozens of save files you’ve accrued to make room for the new character you’re itching to start even though you haven’t finished the campaign with your current one. You know you want to\u2026<\/p>\n
