Baldur's Gate 3

Welle Can't play myn game because GoG Galaxy is a nightmare. Can't repair it, always have missing files, can't update... I waste my time and money on this game, for nothing. It's a miracle I could play it by the past, but now it's impossible.

Larian Studios should be ashamed to charge anything, not even speaking 60$ for such piece of not working crap. I hope a quick fixes will be released this week, and at least they will reduce the amount of crashes, memory leaks (my machine has 16GB of memory, and I get system message BG3 consumed it ALL) - this is reason for such harsh note. Putting aside quality of code and bugs, the rest is surprisingly promising. Beautiful graphics, interesting interactions (met an Elf rogue, and my warlock argued with him having dagger at throat; other one was with wounded Mind Flayer), rich options menu, pretty nice character creation and development (hadn't seen too much of it sadly, due to constant crashes. I managed to get to lv 2, and have 4 companions). I also find turn-based system way more playable compared to real time mess and stopping time every few seconds in BG 1 and 2, though it'd be nice to have later in the game more available actions. In short - once finished, or severely improved with stability is seems to be a great game. Will it be "true" Baldur's Gate? I think no one should care, as what makes a good RPG is interesting story, main character, companions, locations, combat system, quests and user interface. All of these components so far looks very promising, well can't say about quests yet as y'know, crashes.

BG3 is shaping up to be a good game. As a die hard Divinity Original Sin fan I don’t think it’s fair to call this DOS3. There are similarities, but then again there are major differences in the mechanics. That being said, I see the potential here. It’s worth checking out. I experienced major freezing on the Vulcan driver, but the DX11 seemed to work fine on mid tier hardware. Final thoughts. Support Larian. They always deliver. And in this day and age who gives you LAN, Direct Connect, and a DRM free game. Just sayin

A disclaimer, first: these five stars are not because of the current version, but rather for what this early access foreshadows in my eyes. There's still much work to do to get a complete and stable product, but damn isn't this good already. There are some bugs occurring here and there, and cinematics of dialogues and cameras often need fixes, but keeping in mind that it's still a work in progress, the game is actually really enjoyable already. The sheer amount of content, for an early access, is impressive: dialogues for deads, animals, or unlocked by class, background, or knowledge gained from exploring the world are so many that I could keep playing it forever. Not to talk about the many, more or less subtle ways that the story may progress depending on who's side you'll decide to take, how you'll I'm currently playing two different online games, and multiplayer works pretty nicely as well. I almost reached 50 hours of gameplay in total, and I'm pretty sure the count will be in the hundreds already when the game will be ready for the actual release. There are so many released games that let me down and for which I didn't even reach 5-10 hours that I lost count, and here I am spending tens of hours on an early access. Does this game deserves 5 stars as it's now? No, of course not. But will it, once it's complete and release? I've got no doubts at all about that.

It may be all right to some of you, but that price is outrageous. It is $80 up here in Canada and in no way will I be paying that to help buff out the bugs and free test for it's development. Anyone happy to pay that price has climbed up so many corporate a$$ they can't tell where they begin and the corporations end.
