Baldur's Gate 3

Don't Venture Forth Just Yet

Played a few hours. Feeling deflated. Game is utterly beautiful. Character creation is fantastic. Clean interface, highly polished. In-game graphics also stunning. But I quit in frustration with the horrendous camera control. The final straw was when we were fighting and my view somehow zoomed way out and got stuck on another level we hadn't explored yet, watching two higher level monsters duking it out. Could not for the life of me zoom back down to our actual battlefield, somehow seemed to randomly do it after a couple of minutes of flicking around through roofs and ceilings and floors. I have every confidence that Larian will get this right and do the game justice. That's what they do. But I wish I had not bought it yet. On the up side, I won't have to pay for it again (at least, not for the base game). This game has such a deep connection to me as a habitual BG1 and BG2 player: since they both launched they have ALWAYS been installed on my PCs and regularly played. I'm also a seasoned D&D (BECMI-AD&D-5E) player. So I've been waiting a long time for BG3 like so many others. I just should have waited longer. It's not about the money, I'd have ended up spending that anyway, it's about not casting a shadow on the experience I've been waiting so long for. It will be months before I play this again. I'm not going to have my BG3 experience ruined by frustration at bugs. I only have myself to blame I guess, but I can't help thinking: if I was at Larian and I had played this extensively, for many more hours than the 4 or so I've put into it, I would have delayed again rather than let it go to Early Access in this half beautifully polished have rough as guts dichotomy of a release. To end on a positive note: I know I will eventually increase my rating to 5 stars, I have confidence in Larian fixing this and it will be a magnificent game in time. I will wait patiently.
