Bad game and a bad sequel + lies

Just like the last big gaming releases backed by social media marketing, the release of Baldur's Gate 3 has again pointed to the roots of marketing hypes and public relations: Propaganda. People become devotees up in arms against anyone who stands in the way of its Gloriousness, its Holyness, its Singularity. "GOTY, GOTY, GOTY !!!", consumed and forgotten one after the other. It's sad to see how the name of Baldur's Gate is used for an entirely different game that is also a part of all this frenetic and agitated hollowness that is shaping the current gaming industry as well as groupthink mentality. In this context, the actual game and its content have become pretty much irrelevant. BG3 is a professional industry-product. But it has almost nothing in common with the original 2 games. It is also game build on sweet little lies, everything falls apart in ACT III. Not only game lacks worthwile content aside from act I, many things were cut but still marketed as existing in game (check recent controversy on cut content).

Pure trash

I was originally lured to the game seeing as the previous releases of Baldur's Gate & Neverwinter Nights were actually true to the Dungeons & Dragons aspect of literally being able to choose more than just 2 endings & every decision you make changes not just the outcome but also the encounters & storyline. I am not writing this review for any other reason than to save the poor sucker who will think that they are getting a similar title to their previous games or even a game at all -- just a pure waste of time & an overpriced title claiming to be "indie" but requires a studio of imbeciles that list longer than a fantasy movie title. As far as I'm concerned, Larian is a complete fad, the team is incompetent (don't even get me started on the bugs which should have been completely ironed out ofter 2 years... like the whole camera is a bug & most of the "mathematics" they claim to adhere to would fail them all aspects kindergarten... it's not hard to implement a real dice, truly, but look yonder... you can roll the same number dozens of times in a row with or without weighting to a point where you question if luck is hard coded in the game or not), the storytelling a complete joke if you can even call it that & finally, just 2 possible endings: world domination or pathetically mangled biblical narrative. Nay, just take your money elsewhere, this is a complete joke. I'd force my way to refund but I'm not petty seeing as it is all a colossal waste of effort on the studio's part & I pity them for trying to steal from good old games & failing at it miserably. Besides, most of the game feels like it is just a pagan attack on monotheism used as a subtle means to hijack the classical biblical narrative in every way with their "absolute authoritah" nonsense with you either being the jew that saves or dominates. Sorry, sorry, Illithid. That's what I meant. Why bother in the first place & just die on the nautiloid & spare the effort. Larian are the true woke communist Illithid.

Poor game design

They incorporated just enough of DnD 5th edition to make you think they're following it, but they made enough arbitrary changes that completely change how you must play the game, changes that feel like they were inspired from regrets of the developers that they didn't work out in DoS:II. Examples: Stealth is a free action for everyone, partial cover is not implemented (can shoot through/over other foes easily and no impact on to hit chance), shove being a free action instead of replacing an attack action, changing weapon sets is completely free, changes to key spells (sleep). More importantly though, the game is designed with the same flaws of DoS series in that you must complete missions in a certain order or you will be massively underpowered. Even foes of the same level, based on just how many foes you can expect to encounter. Mechanically, I spent more time watching the stupid d20 roll animation than it takes to roll the die in real life because of the unskippable success/failure animation. I died early on several times because the default action on something without a tooltip out of combat was ... attack, and it turned out to explode when attacked. The party limit of four makes no sense in a DnD context, resulting in a few hours lost because I couldn't figure out what the game devs wanted me to do and I kept getting swarmed by more foes than my tiny party could handle at that point. Arrows being an unlimited resource -- except magic arrows, makes bows and crossbows suddenly the most powerful weapon in the game, especially since shields are not implementing the "provide cover for missile fire" type mode I expected to see. Make arrows something limited for you and your opponents, with weight implications. Sorry, I found Neverwinter Nights series far more entertaining.

Really enjoyed EA. Eager for Aug. 3rd

I've had a great time making different builds and the interactions with all the companions. I can't wait to see how the story plays out and making it to level 12 with multiple characters. This is going to bring a lot of people into crpg's and the franchise itself. I hope everyone that is intrigued at least gives it a shot.
