Baldur's Gate 3

Very good game, very fun.

Outstanding game where choices have significant impact and the combat is well-designed.

Comparing this to bg2 is like comparing marvel comics to the cinematic universe, both are presented differently but both are brilliant...but don't expect your exact version of this universe in bg3...otherwise your courting disappointment..new comers will be blown away and that is the point. My description says it all really, it's been 20 odd years since bg2 and the technology has helped deliver a compelling story to a much bigger audience which is somthing this series deserves. The bugs are numerous but I get good settings for my hardware, if divinity is a good measure it will work perfectly in a year or so. The graphics and visual presentation and facial capture are already industry quality and will be some of the best on full relese. All in all it's a worth while investment and supports larian but to play it is to spoil the magic for the real play through. I have played up to where the demo was shown and will leave it for future updates..and the full release as there is a large amount of characters and dialog and spells ect.....but only a small portion of the final product. Final words, the game is going to be massive and possibly the start of a new era of dnd games. Well done larian.

Looks to me like this game will re-write how isometric games are done. The graphic quality of the characters is like a first person game, or an MMO, yet it scales in and out smoothly. I don't think much more needs to be said about just how in depth the game is when it comes to character interaction, or the players interaction with the world and combat. They really let your imagination run wild, and keep the game interesting through re-plays (yes, even with an early access game that only stretches 20ish hours). It's exactly b/c of the diversity of choices that you can get a lot of replay value out of the game. Is it worth $60? That's up to you, really, but the buyer knows it's Early Access going in. It's not for everyone. For those who don't want to spend that much - don't. Not a big deal! Larian does eventually put their games on sale price (well after launch, I might add. Don't expect bargain bin prices on this thing for at least a year or more AFTER launch). Or, you can understand the game is extremely polished for early access, and enjoy the ride that is the first legit (non-MMO, non-remake) DnD RPG game in a LONG time.

No microtransactions. No bullshit. No Excuses. Just the game and a good one at that.
