Baldur's Gate 3

First of all a lot of games are bestsellers because of their names or the names of the developers. This means today really nothing. Second is that gaming is a freetime fun - or should be. I don´t want to be touched with climate change, gender, diversity or things like that in my freetime, no matter what I personally think or feel about ist. I know why they all are doing this, it has something to do with finance and credits. This is not MY problem, there are good solutions, some of the best games were funded by players. No need to do that! Third: If a game is so expensive I really don´t understand why there is only ONE speech. Don´t tell me there was not enough money to pay for this, and this may be not important for building games, but roleplay means you want to be part of a story. If I have to silence the sound of voice because I always hear english and read another language - what makes it impossible to really folow the story - there is a distance to it. Even Baldur´s Gate 1 - in the year 1998!!! - had translated voices. Twentyfive years later this seems to be impossible for THIS money??? No, I just don´t believe that, sorry. And last: The developers made a lot of players to testers for nothing, more than three years. What did THEY get all the time? I could read about beginnig the game over and over again, becaus after every update the saves were gone. I don´t want THIS game as gift.

Nothing like dropping a steaming pile of TOS, Privacy Policy and EULA to agree to right in the opening of the game. Fun fact, making more than one backup of the game files violates the EULA! Hope you don't ever back up your computer, as you can only ever keep one copy unless you delete BG3 from the backup. This is part of the 'in-game experience' and as such is valid for review.

Garbage. Hot garbage. 4th level and I'm still wandering around helpless. No weapons. No armor. Just a bunch of crappy crafting items they won't tell you how to use and a million and a half single-use items so you can let every combat turn go on for minutes at a time. I am running a group of FOURTH. LEVEL. HEROES. who are meandering around with AC 11 and the garbage d6 or d8 + ability items they started with. Every single fight you are at some infuriating disadvantage - mud or deep water or enemies lobbing some random thing that gives your whole party disadvantage on absolutely everything. Enemies attack 2-3x more often, deal more damage, and (see AC) never miss. This is the single worst RPG I have ever played. The out of combat parts are decent, but combat is the biggest chore I've ever encountered. I hate it. I can't even say how much I hate it. I HATE it.

the most beautiful RPG i ever played bored after a few hours due to the ability to save during combat and during dialog, missing an attack becomes optional the dice becomes purely decorative, single save mode makes it uncomfortable but you can still kill the process and load before the action it's not about self control it's about the feeling that you could have tried again so what's the point of accepting negative consequences if you couldn't save during a dialog that has at least 2 dice rolls in it then the minimum would be you have to roll both again if the second one is unsuccessful until the devs add a mode that doesn't let you save whenever you want or at least improve the single save mode so you can't kill the process i do not recommend this game very sad about it and considering a refund and maybe repurchasing it in the future at least at a lower price

Woke trash that shouldn't be called Baldur's Gate. It doesn't come even close to twenty years old cRPG's. Party members are sick perverts (just like devs behind this 'game') and their skills cannot be used in dialogue. Furthermore, it's a bug fest, copycat lame story and not faithful to D&D rules. Overhypped by fanboys. Witcher 3 and most other games eat it for breakfast.
