It is an absolute masterpiece and anyone looking to connect with a game's story, characters and world is definitely in for a tear-jerker that will change your perception of what games should aspire to be forever.
Larian made a fantastic game, truly. I haven't had this much fun playing a D&D based computer RPG in ages. I miss my old gaming group and this game has filled that space well. The complete character customization is awesome. I find myself making new and different characters just to see what playing them is like. This game rekindled my love for D&D so much that I went out and bought 5th edition (2014) and now (2024) books to introduce my kids to the game and see them garner as much excitement and enjoyment from D&D as I did as a child. Now if I could only pull myself away from BG3 long enough to let them give it a try, but I'm still keeping this gem to myself a little longer. :)
