Ok people this is early release. Game is beautiful as far as graphics go and game play is smooth so far. I played 1 and 2 and this has a true baldurs gate feel. I would wish to create more characters on multiplayer like 1&2 did.
But the game now or wait till the polished game comes out next year. However, if you get this now expect some bugs IT IS EARLY RELEASE!
Iam one of the "older" gamers, i started playing games in the 90's. BG2 was one of the great Milestones in gameing and one of the top 10 games i ever played. I played a wide spectrum of games and very good games are so rare these days. Sometimes you even think about quit playing when you dont have the time anymore.
Thats beeing said, Larian did such an awesome job! Finally, Finally a game that is worth the price, Larian hold on to the source Material (with some changes for videogames) and they listen to the fanbase! I really wish Larian all the best and that they stay independet.
The game is so much fun. It looks like Larian thought about almost everything. It starts with an absolut overwhelming character creation, the interaction between characters is very well writen and the voice actors are really good. The implementation of the D&D and the gameplay is dope. The world is massiv but not only big (like other games) it has a new level of depth and things to explore!
I can so highly recommend this game! We as gamers should support Larian, the time, ressources and passion they put into this game is in plain sight everywhere you look in BG3.
A New Milestone for a videogame and hopefully a Wake up call for the other Studios (i know its naiv).
PS: no native speaker so sorry for the mistakes.
I'm removing 1 star because some idiot translated "sorcerer" as "zaklinacz" and warlock as "czarownik" in Polish localization.
Sorcerer should be named "czarownik" because "zaklinacz" is a specialist school of a wizard (enchanting school specifically). Also wizard was translated as "mag", which in English is mage which is wrong because wizard is a "czarodziej" in Polish. I'm playing as warlock myself and I'm constantly seeing "czarownik" instead of "czarnoksiężnik" what makes me constantly wonder am I a sorcerer or a warlock?
This completely breaks my immersion.
Also some dialogues aren't translated at all which is simply lazy.
Overall great game would recommend for every D&D fan out there.
Almost every action you do in this game is satisfying!
A few lines from someone who both played original titles such as Neverwinter1-2 and Divinity Original Sin 1-2.
Game creators seem to have created a fantastic coop experience that takes the best of both words.
The fun and rich world of DnD fused with whatever lessons they learned creating DoS1-2 (which had a long and boring-ish plot) into a game that keeps you engaged all the time but also feels rich, epic and gets you playing the way devs wanted it to be played. so much fun, go pick it up.
Baldur's gate 3 is amazing! By far the best RPG I have ever played!
Everything from the gameplay, worldbuilding, story, characters, soundtrack and visuals are all incredible!
