Damn I went from completely overlooking this game to being hyped as s*** in a week.

Gonna be a long wait for the PS5 version

want to play this so bad right now

I have a pc, but i'd Rather wait for the ps5 version

Why is that guy ducking a bear in OP??

Zhak vo'n'ash duj ​

Blud doesnt talk to me rn come back bae

might be the best game of all time

heard this game a 10 from quite a few people s*** well do I need to play 1 and 2 first? Or can I just read the plot

Just pre-ordered the Digital Deluxe.

3 day Early Access baby.

s*** looks ehhhh

It’s plays considerably slower than Diablo tbh.

Its more of a turn based style of game although locking yourself to that actual turn based combat is optional.

I never played these games or DND before but you can get the hang of it pretty quick and the respec is only 100 gold so you can experiment a lot.

Baldurs Gate 2 came out before most of people playing 3 were even born there's no way they would build a game that was built on having to had play the previous ones. Yeah there will be story beats they nod to for the OG fans but definitely not necessary at all.

But if you're not into turn based games don't even bother with this.

You mean like The Witcher 3?

Or Fallout 3?

Or Elder Scrolls 5?

Hell going on in this game man

I'm not into turn based games except the likes of persona but I'm loving this so far

I dont see why not

Baldurs Gate 1 and 2 are already amongst the greatest of all time

The game takes place 100 years after the first two. Sure there will be some references you miss but overall its an entirely new story. And even the very few recurring characters will be introduced in a way where you dont need any prior knowledge. Game stands completely on its own

The bigger question is wether you like dnd turn based combat. Overall the game is extremely beginner friendly for a crpg but I know many people dont like the slow gameplay and thats fine

Larian really did the impossible by making a crpg thats so easy to get into for the masses that are unfamiliar to this dinosaur genre with a cinematic and modern presentation while also having most of the old crpg fans entertained and loving this game

My fav games are KOTOR 1 and 2 so I can handle slow turn based combat tbh

Cool I’ll start with bg3 then

Enjoy!

KOTOR wouldnt exist without Bioware having their breakthrough making Baldurs Gate 1 and 2 so I guess its back to the roots in some way

Bioware used to be so good. F***

Yeah I played this s*** all weekend I feel like I've barely made a dent

Hard to talk about though because it feels like I'm giving away spoilers to paths other people might not have discovered

Yeah I love how the game constantly rewards you with little secrets or unique interactions. Like you dont wanna take it from other people to have this moment even tho they most likely wont see it anyways

Plus there's seemingly random events that happen where I'm not entirely sure how they were triggered lol ahh been a minute since I was this amazed
