Baldur's Gate 3

I've heard this game is great but I can't tell you how it is. I've spent 12 hours now downloading, installing, uninstalling, reinstalling, and redownloading. The game is riddled with file errors requiring you to dig into the folders and figure out what files need to be renamed or removed to appease the mismatched file errors. The game either crashes or prevents me from playing with my friend. I'm frankly exhausted and I haven 't seen more than 10 seconds of the opening cut scene this entire time. I've tried to get help from support and have only gotten a single response and haven't heard anything back since. I want to play this game so badly but I functionally can't get past the main menu. Do not buy this game until it has been seriously patched or you will be disappointed.

I've played the game around 100 hours and was a cleric lvl 12 notice these problems..and ask for refund for these reasons..Game dosent add bonus correctly or dosent tell you what bonus are stacking or not.Not all classes are repusented like the tabletop game. Computer controlled NPC's know there evermetn better than you do. That leads to to them know and explotes being used by the computer before you can figure them out.. example is that you on computer frist turn might oush you off a cliff right away vs you figuring it out or having that idea. Would be nice if they added a check enverment options in the skills iconsheir really isn't know out of the box thinking in this game like they might want you to belive. Feels like computer chess or checkers more than D&D. The game Almost always rolls the same regradless. This can lead in to prodictable combat that exploits the more player than the computer. An expample is that you might have a NPC player on your team that you'll like to protect but the enemy controlled computer will always attack that NPC even if thier not a threat. You get threated way to easy and most of the game you roll with disadvange and that means you roll 2 dice and take the lower dice as your roll. Game works better with xbox controller than Keyboard Mouse. the level of spell dosent work on keyboard showing you the same spell at level 2 and 4 as with the xbox contoller it shows the difference and it easier to pick the right level for the job vs always casting level 1 when you have 4 heals avaierble NPC players act stupidly in combat and act like their invinsable when the enemy is lvl6 and their level 3 so half the time leads to again an other player exploite were you left to protect the NPC or hope the move diffently in combat next time. Many times did I have to load a game becuase of not enought data on the battlefield and didnt know I stared by a pushable cliff or NPC would run right in to combat with out anythought. poor AI scripting

Just gonna leave this 5 star review to balance out all the one/two star reviews given sheerly because the game is not "Baldur's Gate" or not "Forgotten Realms Enough". The game is a GOOD game, even if it uses a lot of the mechanics from the previous Larian titles. That is hella okay, you don't need to keep reinventing the wheel as long and the moment to moment gameplay is good and keeps you entertained. Too many of these old boomers came in with such a restricted view of what an infinity engine based game should be and are salty cause it isn't. Just because a game doesn't meet your limited restricted preferences doesn't mean it's a "bad" game. What's funny is even in their own terrible reviews they admit that the game is a fun game, with fun mechanics. Just, blah blah blah not Baldur's Gate blah blah blah. That said, they are full within their right to leave one/two star reviews. I'm just leaving mine to counteract theirs (and because I genuinely enjoyed the game too)

Not cool to advertise a game as win 7,8,10 Mac OS X (10.15.6 ) compatible and then release it. 2 years later as only Windows (10, 11) compatible! I want a refund regardless of how long it has been since I purchased this + I you have only changed it recently as I have a screenshot on July 01st 2023 showing the original requirements! Shame on you!
