Baldur's Gate 3
Description
Cross-platform multiplayer with Steam is supported.
Gather your party, and return to the Forgotten Realms in a tale of fellowship and betrayal, sacrifice and survival, and the lure of absolute power.
Mysterious abilities are awakening inside you, drawn from a Mind Flayer parasite planted in your brain. Resist, and turn darkness against itself. Or embrace corruption, and become ultimate evil.
From the creators of Divinity: Original Sin 2 comes a next-generation RPG, set in the world of Dungeons and Dragons.
Choose from a wide selection of D&D races and classes, or play as an origin character with a hand-crafted background. Adventure, loot, battle and romance as you journey through the Forgotten Realms and beyond. Play alone, and select your companions carefully, or as a party of up to four in multiplayer.
Abducted, infected, lost. You are turning into a monster, but as the corruption inside you grows, so does your power. That power may help you to survive, but there will be a price to pay, and more than any ability, the bonds of trust that you build within your party could be your greatest strength. Caught in a conflict between devils, deities, and sinister otherworldly forces, you will determine the fate of the Forgotten Realms together.
Forged with the new Divinity 4.0 engine, Baldur’s Gate 3 gives you unprecedented freedom to explore, experiment, and interact with a world that reacts to your choices. A grand, cinematic narrative brings you closer to your characters than ever before, as you venture through our biggest world yet.
The Forgotten Realms are a vast, detailed and diverse world, and there are secrets to be discovered all around you -- verticality is a vital part of exploration. Sneak, dip, shove, climb, and jump as you journey from the depths of the Underdark to the glittering rooftops of the Upper City. How you survive, and the mark you leave on the world, is up to you.
- allows you to combine your forces in combat, and split your party to follow your own quests and agendas. Concoct the perfect plan together… or introduce an element of chaos when your friends least expect it.
- offer a hand-crafted experience, each with their own unique traits, agenda, and outlook on the world. Their stories intersect with the entire narrative, and your choices will determine whether those stories end in redemption, salvation, domination, or many other outcomes.
- based on the D&D 5e ruleset. Team-based initiative, advantage & disadvantage, and roll modifiers join combat cameras, expanded environmental interactions, and a new fluidity in combat that rewards strategy and foresight.
- through your choices, and the roll of the dice. No matter who you play, or what you roll, the world and its inhabitants will react to your story.
- allows you to pause the world around you at any time even outside of combat. Whether you see an opportunity for a tactical advantage before combat begins, want to pull off a heist with pin-point precision, or need to escape a fiendish trap. Split your party, prepare ambushes, sneak in the darkness -- create your own luck!

Critics reviews
Game Rant
4.5/5 stars
Baldur’s Gate 3 is something special, though. Its complexity is intimidating, but sticking with it and learning has such a high reward threshold that it's hard to not recommend the sequel to even the most casual gamers out there. It has heart, it has style, and it has the multi-year effort of a studio that obviously loves its source material. The mind-blowing size of the game itself and everything contained within is a testament to Larian Studios' dedication to its craft and commitment to bringing something incredible to the gaming public. The blend of the various Dungeon & Dragons systems into the game is almost flawless in its execution, and the math and storytelling combo does a one-two punch on almost every other RPG game out there. High quality and astoundingly fun, Baldur’s Gate 3 may just become the kind of game that old and new fans can agree is something extraordinary.

Baldur's Gate in name only
Obviously made by casuals, for casuals. The 5e rules make a complete mockery of what used to be DnD, and the changes to the lore actually destroys continuity between BG 1-2 and this one. It is a sad state of affairs when franchises gets dumbed down for the cheering masses of normies, and this is sadly one of them. This is how DnD and Baldur's Gate dies - With thunderous applause.

It's on the right track
I've played a couple of hours and so far it feels pretty much what I expected, a Larian D&D game. The combat feels great, I like the roll mechanic both active and passive. The character animations are great except for the mouth. A lot of polish needed, but it is early access so understandable. I'd like to see a bit more options regarding character appearance, so far it's just fixed prefaces, no way to shape it given how much you see your character up close I think it will be nice to customize it as much as possible.

So far great!
This is my initial opinion after only a few hours of play, will update later on It is beautiful! it has exceed my expectations in that regard. Combat it's taking me a bit to get used to. Not sure how I would like after more hours of play the fact that they translated the ttrpg rules (one action one bonus action and movement) as they are... It might cause some combats are way too long. Maybe the D:OS2 system would work better? I dont know. Definitely happy it is not "real time with pause" 4 chars party for me is better than bigger, less micromanagement. About the price, seriously, stop complaining that more than 200 people wants to get paid for 4 years of work and the company recover the investment. It is actually quite cheap. Bugs: some of then are quite hilarious! :)

Sigh, I am an idiot
First lets get some stuff out of the way. Loved Divinity, I put unbelievable amount of hours in it and brought in some fresh converts. And I want to love this too. But I am paying $60 to beta test the game and the first bug is that I can't get past char creation screen. I wish I was joking. So yeah, I am an idiot for buying this stuff early. I genuinely just made the world a little worse for my inability to wait and have Larian actually work out all the bugs. So what's next developers? We pay you for the tools so that we can make our own adventure?
