博德之门3

I was going to get this game, until I saw the revew on the second review page, about the bear.... So I have some dignity left I wont buy this. And I was going to. But this is getting out of hand. Them and their bear can shove it.

I played BG1 and 2 since the 80's, still revert back to them very regularly as they are and still remain pure magic. Devs then took the time to make sure players had the best of time playing their games, there was passion and ambition. I also liked DOS1 and 2 a fair bit, even considering turn based combat is not really my thing, growing up with BG RTWP system. That being said, I think Larian abused the name and reputation of BG for their own benefit, it is like they polished some cheap dented copper and are trying to sell it as gold. This game has nothing to do with BG, nothing. Hijacking the name of the city and adding some iconic characters from the original does NOT make it BG. Not every panda can Kung Fu just because it is a panda. If you're a BG fan you'll be very dissapointed by this DOS-clone claiming to be something it cannot deliver. Larians decision to take away the players choice to play RTWP is one I cannot condone and until they acknowledge their mistake and laziness I will never again play this horrific mismatch of promise and delivery... The disguise of Larian being a rising star in the gaming community now suddenly avails an old and sad one trick pony that can no longer pull their weight.

I cannot give this game a game-play review, as I will not buy it until it is out of early-access. It has been in development for a very long time, and too many company's take advantage of excited gamer's that cannot wait to play their game. As stated in the title, I would love to buy this game, but I cannot give anyone support until they have completed the project. This is like buying a car that is only partially built, it maybe be drive able, but will not be fun if your driving it in the rain without roof or windshield. I will give it a 3 out of 5, only because I love the looks, style, and potential of this game.

keeps pausing gog been eird for me wouldnt reccomend it

Like most players, yes, paying 60€ for an unfinished game is the work of crook. When you were a tester, before, you used to have discounts or even the game for free. This model is like tasting raw food at a restaurant, paying fool price, and wait a long time before being served and then realize that the customer next to you pay only 10-25% of the full price without having to taste before like you did. Give a Nobel of crooky capitalism to this studio, they've beaten EA games ! The game itself : -very poor animation level. You are far from current standards of most AAA games. And it seems to be the core of the game... -plenty of bugs but that's normal - music is not immersive... - no big bad antagonist presented. I mean, where is the new Sarevok or Irenicus ? BG implies some standards, this is one of them. - random loot : that's not RP friendly, loot have to be coherent with the monsters you kill. Finding a sword on an imp is irrelevant. - 4 people party. Those standards do not match the spirit of BG. 6 people party give more interactions between characters and allow us to test various kind of roleplay for our characters. With for, you specialize too much. - Turn based is quite slow even if they try to fasten it. Pillars of Eternity and Pathfinder succeed into bringing back RTwP. Larian should be able to do it too. - The dice system is the strenght of this game : that gives us no choice but to adapt, that's very RP friendly. To make it better, disabling save-quit-reload is interesting. Only thing, it shouldn't pause the game, we do not need to see it. It's a waste of time. To finish : the game will be good, yes, but it won't be with BG heritage, that's just bad marketing. Pathfinder of PoE are way better descendants. Just wait the full release, and wait few months or a year for a bigger discount, 60€ is way too expensive for that.
