Comparing this to bg2 is like comparing marvel comics to the cinematic universe, both are presented differently but both are brilliant...but don't expect your exact version of this universe in bg3...otherwise your courting disappointment..new comers will be blown away and that is the point. My description says it all really, it's been 20 odd years since bg2 and the technology has helped deliver a compelling story to a much bigger audience which is somthing this series deserves. The bugs are numerous but I get good settings for my hardware, if divinity is a good measure it will work perfectly in a year or so. The graphics and visual presentation and facial capture are already industry quality and will be some of the best on full relese. All in all it's a worth while investment and supports larian but to play it is to spoil the magic for the real play through. I have played up to where the demo was shown and will leave it for future updates..and the full release as there is a large amount of characters and dialog and spells ect.....but only a small portion of the final product. Final words, the game is going to be massive and possibly the start of a new era of dnd games. Well done larian.
