博德之门3

I guess it's cool, if you never (or rarely) played (good) pen'n'paper DnD. However, if you happen to be a veteran, well... Try not to cross reference with lore or rules or how things work in the pen'n'paper. It has little to nothing to do with Baldur's Gate...or DnD for that matter. No idea what, why and how this game was hyped, but, well, the bar has never been lower.

The game's combat mechanics are too simplified. The character classes are too streamlined. I liked making my own builds, choosing stats, perks, masteries, and skills. The DnD influences are there because of other BG games, heritage, not because it's better. From reading the forums of different platforms, the concensous of most is that the game isn't DnD enough, and needs to conform to 5e rules more. That reason is why I refunded the game, as I don't see it changing to a progression and combat system I would enjoy. There's just too many voices wanting the opposite of DOS type of systems. One of the most complained mechanics is the ground surfaces, a staple of DOS interactive combat. If you are like me, don't get this game, as the complexity is gone, for more simple and faster combat. If you are a DnD fan, or don't mind a move away from DOS mechanics, then maybe try it.

Yeah, but steam BG3 forums are so precious. Like upside down world with cherry bear on top

I have 50 hours into the game. I am in the middle of Act 2. So far, this game is a masterpiece. They don't make CRPG's like this anymore. Larian clearly learned a lot making Original Sin 1 and 2. I think this is one of those games that benefited a lot from it's early access phase. If you have even a passing interest in story driven tactical RPG's, then you owe it to yourself to play Baldur's Gate 3, a game that will likely win a lot of people's "Game of the Year" for 2023.

If you are even only remotely interested in RPGs, you will enjoy Baldur's Gate 3. The quality and size of the world is epic, the caracters are superbly written and the story keeps you hooked and wanting for more. This is one of the few games I'd even accept a price tag beyond 60€, because you can literally feel the love and labor poured into this game at every turn you take.
