Thread 715977284

Is this worth it despite the massive file size that'd take me most of the day to finish?

no. even mods to remove the pozz can't fix Larian's shitty reddit writing.

>>715977284 (OP)
I think any GOTY slop is worth trying at least once. Depending on your taste, you will either be filtered by the combat and hate it or you endure and play it for the story.

>>715977284 (OP)
Yes

>>715977284 (OP)
No, it's really not. Act 1 is fun, Act 2 is okay, but Act 3 just straight up sucks in both content and functionality.

>>715977284 (OP)
Yes . Im alsmost to act 2 and everone lied about the coomer b8 its really well writen with tons of content and crazy ways to perma die that have you reloading save files.

No. The gameplay gets old before Act 2 is over. The writing sucks. The lore sucks. The characters are all gay and pozzed.
10/10 voice acting and character animation cant carry an entire game of this length.

>try to have a thread
>mentally ill amerimutt goblins cannot go 2 seconds with out mentioning trannies.
What cuases this ?

>>715977284 (OP)
Eh, 7/10 for me.
Characters and setting didn't stick. CRPG gameplay is kind of fund though.
Act 1 player sexuality really made me uncomfortable.
>me: choose the friendly option
>npc:"LE BUTTSEX!?!?!!?!!!?"

play bg1 instead
>but I don't like bg1
then you don't like crpgs, try playing bg3 instead

>>715977284 (OP)
You'll easily get 100 hours of it and be entertained the entire time.
If anything I'd recommend you stay away from the romance stuff, because it is pretty cringey wish-fulfillment. But the combat and world design are both great and fun. One of the few CRPGs that you'll actually go and pick fights in.

>>715981281
most of the side content is just you running into a vestibule full of enemies guarding a chest with 13 gold in it. And it's a larian game so you're expected to do it or you'll be underleveled

>>715982609
The loot in this game is almost all great.
Even the basic stuff you find can be good until the end of the game.
What are you even using as an example for that?

>>715977284 (OP)
Depends on what you are looking after. If it is a solid fantasy game with a hilariously bad story and writing, then yeah, give it a shot. If you are looking for a good CRPG, absolutely not.

BG3 is not a bad game, but it is a completely dogshit CRPG. And it is DEFINITELY the most overrated game of the generation.

>>715977284 (OP)
>wokeshit
Do rpg fags really?

>>715983023
What do you think is a good CRPG?

>>715982697
there's a handful of stat synergizing equipment they homebrewed that I refuse to use, like the on hit lightning damage gear you get in act 1 for walking around a building and talking to an npc. There's also the okay mace you get from the early access and the AOE radiant damage gear in act 2.

>>715983707
BG2, Arcanum, both Fallouts, WOTR. If you want more reading and story, then Planescape Torment. If you want more fighting and pure adventuring, then Icewind Dale games.

>>715977284 (OP)
Yeah it's really good.

>>715984354
BG2 is strictly worse than BG3
Arcanum is a good story but a bad game.
Fallout 1/2 is a set of morality tests on the level of a grammar school teacher explaining why kids have to work together.
Wrath of the Righteous is a containment chamber for autistic men made by the government to keep them preoccupied instead of committing domestic terrorism.

I guess there are no good CRPGs.

>>715985247
>BG2 is strictly worse than BG3
Opinion discarded.

>>715985247
BG3 is actually unwatchable. There's never any point it convinces you the people making it know what they're doing. Larian tries to hide behind 10 layers of irony but it doesn't work. There's no actual goal for the player in the game

Baldur's Gate 3 is mechanically the best CRPG ever made so far, it's damn perfect. The only flaw is that the game was clearly made for women and homosexuals. The only straight male options are Lae'zel and Minthara.

>>715985482
>there's no actual goal
Early on, get the Worm out of your Brain.
By the mid point you know that is impossible.
By the end you know the only solution is killing or taking over the giant brain that controls all the worms.
Everything else is tangential to that.

>>715977284 (OP)
Couldn't get past Act 1 because of the writer's tiefling fetish

>>715985658
you learn in the early access that the brain worm isn't that big of a deal

>>715985668
There's only one reason to bother with them, and that is the Blacksmith who sells S-tier gear in Part 3 if you save him.
The others are all totally a waste and if you don't want his stuff, then don't even bother.
>>715985732
The brain worm is a big deal and if you weren't walking around with the magical D20, you'd be a mind-controlled slave.

>>715985247
The only thing BG3 does better than BG2 is the presentation, and that is still debatable because of its godawful high fantasy "art" style. Everything else is either missing completely (like worldbuilding, considering BG3 doesn't even offer a roamable map, has no weather or time of the day change, etc.), is on the same level (like AI, which is just as retarded as in BG1 - a quarter of century old game now), or is subpar, like writing, story (oh god, the story, holy shit), companions, etc.

>>715985830
>The brain worm is a big deal
not really

>>715977284 (OP)
It's a fun game, you might like it. Barbarian is the best class.

>>715985830
>The brain worm is a big deal
No, it is not. There is virtually no detrimental effect, nor gameplay-wise, nor story-wise. Which is generally a theme for BG3, there are virtually no stakes, it's a retarded Forgotten Realms-themed rollercoaster ride with a minuscule player agency.

It's crazy how /v/ shits on games like BG3 while praising braindead, time-wasting, shallow, poorly written trash like FF7

Just an entire board of eternal manchildren.

BG3 is one of the greatest games of all time, easily.

>>715986112
BG3 is shit and you are a stupid faggot
t. never played a FF game.

>>715985849
BG3 is one of the best looking fantasy games ever, and is way prettier in pure aesthetic than BG2. Which is often muddy and bland.
The enemy AI is definitely better than BG1/2, and tricking or breaking it is definitely harder than the older games, but of course not impossible.
The companions in BG3 are absolutely better than BG1/2. They have actual interactions that go beyond a few dialog lines and generic slogans. Jaheera in BG3 completely moggs any previous incarnation of her character.

>>715986112

>>715985902
>>715986110
You have the magical D20 containing a rebellious super powered Mindflayer protecting you.
That is why you, as the player are not a slave like everyone else with a brain worm.
It is a big deal.
If you are complaining that eating more brain worms doesn't have a consequence that ruins your game, that is just wanting the game to be more limited than it has any reason to be.
At this point it is just willful ignorance of what the game says to you directly.

You need the homebrew mod to fix it (because 5e sucks shit)
And the Really Shadowheart mod (because the lgbtqlettucebacontomato writers inserted their cuck fetish)
Act 1 is the best (and its OKAY), act 2 is railroad no content, act 3 is a jumbled mess of random shit

>>715986619
I didn't say it was AI, I said it sounds like AI.
It's clearly one of those voice acting gigs where the actor is given a phonebook's worth of lines, sorted alphabetically, with zero context or direction, and he's reading them for the first time directly into the microphone without knowing what words to even emphasize in the sentence.

The gameplay is good, but the story is pure dogshit. Also all these western AAA devs keep producing games that take over 100h to finish a single playthrough, which I dont like personally. But I dont think there is a game that comes close to what bg3 is, pathfinder games have these shitty minigames which you are forced to play and the other popular crpgs are exclusively rtwp.
I personally can't recommend the game, but if you dont care about the story that much and want a turn-based rpg game, then it's a fine game all things considered

>>715986346
it's the same garbage

>>715986619
Qrd on how to get the best experience out of DOS2?
t. never played it, heard the armour system is shit and to play with ifan or whatever

>>715986453
I couldn't put my finger it, but now that you've mentioned it I can really see the railroad. I always wanted to try a playthrough where you fully commit to being a servant of the absolute but the game forces you to fight and kill Ketheric no matter your alignment.

Even if they didn't want to make too many diverging storylines, they could have at least made a branch where the campaign end sooner because you get enslaved or something. Kinda like how you lose get the credits if Gale suicides, or you become a mind flayer if the emperor dies at the start of act 3

>>715986883
put it on the easiest difficulty and blow everything up

>>715986859
The gameplay is some of the shittiest tb ever, its dogshit.

>>715986913
I did everything but Moonrise Towers because I refused to lie to get in (I was playing a Paladin)...only to find out that it is one cutscene and it tells you to fuck off to the corner of the map that I just cleared and has a big ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO PROGRESS THE STORY popup

>>715986883
Play on classic or tactician, just enjoy the game. Do most quests and try to get most experience before moving on.

The armor system is fine, retards just sperg out because it's something different. You can play full physical, full magic, or hybrid, all are absolutely viable even on the absolute hardest difficulty.

>>715987157
Is Ranger shit btw? Is there a dogshit class that is an absolute brick?

>>715986235
>BG3 is one of the best looking fantasy games ever
Fidelity-wise, yes. The artstyle is mobile game tier garbage for tasteless cretins. There are some exceptions, but as a whole, it's shit.
>The enemy AI is definitely better than BG1/2
No, no it is not. All it takes is one (1) wooden doors. They home in at you the same way they did in BG1. Your companions STILL fucking walk into detected traps. They get stuck into environment regularly.
>They have actual interactions that go beyond a few dialog lines and generic slogans
Literally the opposite of truth. The two party members that actually have at least some development (Astarion and Shart) are still just caricatures, whose entire "character arc" is decided by a single shitty roll. The rest of them are either extremely shallow, caricatures, or with basically no character arc whatsoever, like Karlach. Which is, considering she might be the only truly interesting character (in concept) kinda funny.
Don't mistake character writing for retarded reactivity trinkets. Larian does the latter quite well, but they are seemingly unable to do a good writing otherwise.
Btw, I'm not saying BG2 character are somehow more developed (although there were exceptions), but at least they are written better and most of them HAVE some actual character arc, apart from meme chars like Minsc.

>>715987105
Don't forget your paladin being completely fine with raising undead. I still think Larian never even bothered to playtest paladins.

>>715977284 (OP)
no but i would say its still worth a try

>>715987228
it's a classless ivory tower system with a bunch of random skills and you don't know if they're shit or not

>>715986843
That's not what it sounds like at all. Narrator voice is universally loved and adds a lot of character and humor to the game.

You are mentally ill

Ever notice how now it's the ex-gamer goober types who are screeching about really good games and demanding they be censored? Obviously BG3 is an incredibly good once in a life time game that should be played by everyone. If everything you like is shit then your politics and opinions are worthless. Not a single person complaining about bg3 in this thread plays good games, I can absolutely guarantee that.

All the classes I've tried are viable. Stealth isn't that strong and has very limited use. I didn't like the assassin/dagger build, but a lot of people swear it's strong.

You can respec after act one so just experiment

>>715987265
The art style is just fine, and areas like the Underdark are probably the prettiest that any fantasy game has gotten in a very long time.
The AI is fairly good at navigating chokepoints while still having the computer press them to being aggressive. People complained that the AI would wait them out and Larian tuned them to be more aggressive and attack heavy. But even with that nerf, they're better than any of the old Bioware games by leaps and bounds.
Companion overworld navigation isn't ideal, but that is different than AI.

Laezel absolutely has character development. Probably the best of anyone. To deny that is just being illiterate.
Even Karlach, the most shallow companion, has some depth because you learn that much of her attitude is a big show she's putting on to avoid confronting inevitability.
The main group has really some of the best writing as actual characters, and not text dumps, in the CRPG world right now. If you weren't interested, chances are that you've never liked any CRPG character writing. Because it is only downhill from BG3.

>>715987836
>oh my hecking god so many different biomes!

>>715986112
Act 3 is trash, anon. No amount of petty insults is going to change the fact that the game peters out after the fight with Ketheric.

>>715977284 (OP)
It's alright but every time I try it I just get bored with it after a while. The worst part of the game is the looting and inventory management, there's boxes and stuff fucking everywhere, screen is littered with things to click on and it gets exhausting trying to click on everything so you don't miss stuff. And most of it is garbage so you'll sort through cutting boards, rotten carrots, forks, hats, shoes, gems, books, scrolls, notes etc. trying to figure out what to keep and what to sell constantly when your inventory fills up. There's like 15 different arrow types, bombs, poisons, flasks, potions, elixirs.....

>>715987720
>characters don't telepathically know that you killed an ally in another town over
>this makes anon mad
One of the best traits of BG3, that you can assassinate targets without aggroing the entire world, and you're trying to bitch about it.

>bg3 ai
Do not fucking start. Dogshit. Next question. Actually, that might be me just whinging that the game is far too easy. The enemies constantly trigger attacks of opportunity running out of your martials range and blow themselves up, do nonsensical turns and ...argh I just hate 5e I'm sorry

>>715987560
It's a NARRATOR you stupid zoomer fuck. Do zoomers genuinely not know what a narrator is? LMFAO

>>715988035

Larian is generally pretty good about that kind of thing. Any post-launch content is typically added to the game gratis.

>>715988390
You're free to work with the Goblins against the Grove if you want.
But the game was never sold as some deep faction experience where you choose a team and then are a part of them for the next 50 hours.
The player works with certain groups in a transient and organic sense over the course of the campaign and you have a choice of which to do so with.

Railroading at its finest.

>>715988269
All of this is bad except for Starsector and AC6 which is just mediocre, and dark Messiah I guess but that's like 2 hours long and 20 years old. How fucking retarded do you have to be to like NWN, swordflight is the only remotely good module and it's inconsistent as hell.

>>715988272

Self-awareness, anon.
>If you weren't interested, chances are that you've never liked any CRPG character writing. Because it is only downhill from BG3.
This gets especially sad because I've replayed Torment just before starting BG3, and the difference is just stark and fucking cruel. The multi-layered character arcs that are so intrinsically connected to TNO's, multiple themes for each that often also intertwine with game's themes, dozens of hours lasting character development, and all of them are unique, too.
Comparing that shit to BG3 is nearly fucking criminal. Not only the companions ARE shallow as fuck, and that's including Laezel, who, again, is dumbed down to a single roll and then, eh, just rolls over after being indoctrinated through her entire life as if nothing happened (which just then repeated with Shart, too). They also suffer from the awful coolest guy syndrome I've ever seen in the vidya. A lower of a Goddess, Arch-devil's bodyguard, local not-batman, etc. All on level 1, of course, but muh worm deus ex machina will fix that. It's so incredibly gay and boring.
And THEN you have companions like Halsin who doesn't even have a full set of voice lines. BG3 companions are like the Upper City. Everyone is talking about it, but it's just not there.
>Companion overworld navigation isn't ideal, but that is different than AI.
Just lol.

BG3 did not deserve the praise it got, and this is coming from someone who has put hundreds of hours into it.

>>715988983
You're surprised that bad guys don't want you muscling on their turf?

It's one of my favorite games I've ever played and easily the most time i've ever put into a single player game.

If you can handle the graphics the game straight up just looks amazing. The world its set in is basically 5e dungeons and dragons so you literally have decades of lore here to roleplay with. If you can get into the world and enjoy making different builds based on items and class you will really enjoy the combat. It allows for so many different options in how you handle each encounter.
The modding scene for this game is huge as well expect a host of options to oblige your demands its for sure a must buy for anyone who can get it on sale 100%

I enjoyed minthara so much I made a dark elf and used only her in my party for a playthough. I wish act 3 gave you more it was a bit obvious they wanted you to choose shadow heart.

It's pretty much impossible to have a genuine discussion about this game on /v/ because a) it's popular and b) bear sex. For what it's worth, in like 150 hours I only even found the option for it go sexual twice, the first time I got to fuck a prostitute as a reward for some quest and the second time was that one bit with the Emperor.
What really pleasantly surprised me about BG3 was how dense the maps were. It seemed like you could wander into any building in Act 3, for example, and find a mini-story, part of some quest, or just something unique and interesting.

>>715977284 (OP)
It shits the bed in the outskirts and big city act 3, noticeable cut content and rushed ending. Still very enjoyable though

>>715977284 (OP)
No matter what the /v/edditors say, there are some very rpg kino moments in the game. The mage tower in the Underdark, for example, the hag, etc.
The overarching main story feels contrived bait and switch tho.

How do you handle 4chan if you can't play a turn based game? 4chan is text only.

>>715994901
The internet was slower in the past, but games were smaller, so nothing has changed.

Why is it still so expensive 2 years after release, even on sale ? Also physical copies are so few and rare.. Thats a red flag for me

>>715995320
>Why is it still so expensive 2 years after release, even on sale ?

It's because the game is actually worth playing, and it's a very long game. I paid the same price for SH2, and BG3 is a lot longer.

>>715995442
Now look at the BG3 play time.

I mog you

>>715995736
Do you mog me? I have 30k in Dota. 20k in Dota 2 and I played Warcraft 3 as well.

Act 1 is great and act 3 is terrible, both in gameplay and idpol. Act 1 alone is not just one of the best WRPG but video game experiences in existence. Act 3 is a bloated yet rush slog, which is an impressive feat to pull off. As for idpol it isn't till act 3 where half the people and nearly 100% of the gnomes are gay, and the refugee shit turns modern. The squatter mini quest is the most offensive and seems like it was written by a literal commie.

i think it's probably the best big budget game release in a long long time, i was starting to think i was getting old for vidya and that games sucked because i was getting old, but turns out games suck because they do suck and devs and publishers don't deserve to eat bunch of lazy fucks, BG3 is an exception, a lot of detail and secrets, gameplay is fun even if you don't like the genre

>>715977284 (OP)
This is a bad game in every aspect. From graphics and combat to text and characters. The fact that it’s ultra-woke only makes it worse, but it’s not the decisive factor. Even if it were the most based game in the world, it would still be utter garbage because the other aspects are just that—utter garbage.

It's in a rare breed of games I can recommend without any reservations or qualifiers. It's not perfect and I don't think any game is, but it's really good.

>>715985247
Both WOTR and RT are fucking great, faggot. They are pure fun for ANY player, even for casual scrubs.

bg3 has so much TES tier interactivity stuck on an act crpg. Its a Shame that its all going to the void because It has no practical custom campaign tools or more campaigns
Why doesnt wotc repurpose the game for their online tabletop cashgrab?

>>715998662
doesn't even have a physics system

I'm playing it for the first time, doing an evil playthrough. I'm in the midst of Act 3 and have had a lot of fun. I got the Hag on my side by killing the mommy. These threads feel like they are spammed by a few schizos who can't stand seeing others having fun.

>>715998772
>These threads feel like they are spammed by a few schizos who can't stand seeing others having fun.

Correct, but that's 4chan in general. If someone plays Baldur's Gate 3, the crazy people can't hurt you, and so 4chan is useful in the sense that it's a prison. If you ever play video games, the people here are just tormenting each other; That's the silver lining.

>>715998772
No, they are full of people who actually played OTHER games and CAN compare them to BG3. People for whom this isn’t their first CRPG, so they know how trash BG3 is in every aspect. It loses to WOTR in every way except graphics, despite a hundredfold difference in budget.

>>715998763
>noooooo my flingo flungos flying all over the place

>>715998907
if you don't torment retards they might start thinking they had something special. I remember how much hate skyrim got from people that didn't play the game because it was dumbed down, Larian wasn't even in good standing with the gaming community before they made BG3

>>715998772
it's most likely one very mentally ill retard that lives rent free on 4chan and his only attempt at social communication is shitting on popular games for years.

>>715998892
I think act 3 has major issues with structure. The set pieces are actually kind of good (for the most part) but how they're organized is kind of fucking garbage at times.

>>715998772
I think its just owlcatfags being gay as per usual, Rogue Trader plays worse than fucking crpgs from the early 00s

>>715999181
It is not. It's one of the best CRPGs. Period. And much better than balls hurt gay 3

I'm playing right now, on AC1, and I really like.

It has all the faults of a DND clone, the game isn't hard, I'm playing it on tactician and I haven't found a hard fight for now. That said, it's such a pain in the ass having to recharge points everytime. My main character is a sorcerer and he spends like 90% of the fights just using cantrips because I don't want to back and rest.

Meanwhile the frog and archer Astrion just DESTROY the enemy on the first turn. Feel like this game would be piss easy with just 3 fighters and some magic buffer.

Basically, Divinity 2 did everything better. And for now I liked the characters more there.
Pathfinder still the best though.

This thread is grim
It's just waifuslop for coomer retards

>>715999767
Grymforge is so detailed and it still feels like we only explore a chip of it. I hate how it makes me want more but it doesn't give me more.

>>715999767
>Feel like this game would be piss easy with just 3 fighters and some magic buffer.

It's not, and you should try Honour Mode or do a Custom with HM ruleset if you think the game is too easy. HM is harder than Tactician, and a spellcaster is much higher damage than martial if you know how to do the cheap stuff.

>>716000320
>I hate how it makes me want more but it doesn't give me more.

It does give you more in a way. If you find the secret area in Grymforge where you can see a temple in the distance, that temple is just the place you visit in Act 2.

Would Deepseek call people Slave Niggers? I did it right here: >>715996584
Post a screenshot of an AI calling people Niggers. If you can't, you should probably stop posting, because your brain is tiny.

>>715999767
>frog and archer Astrion just DESTROY the enemy on the first turn. Feel like this game would be piss easy with just 3 fighters and some magic buffer
Every CRPG is like this until very late game. You can steamroll everything with fighters early on then later at most you need a single buffer/debuffer. It’s incredibly annoying.

Tencent uses uncensored deepseek models for guerilla marketing.

or do you just accept anything that sounds plausible? I feel like something this stupid would live in constant fear. How do you know someone isn't in your house right now? Maybe someone is in your house and wants to kill you. Go check that out instead of shitting up 4chan.

You're calling me ethnic after saying "There is multiple data"? Really good job. You posted an image that I can filter, and the rest of the board is filtered. If this wasn't true, you wouldn't be replying to this thread. Reply again.

>>716000812
WOTR casters are fucking insane and can change the outcome of the fight since level 1

Have a look at this screenshot. The images are gone because I filtered them. If you post every image you have on your PC, or phone, or whatever the slavnigger is using, I will filter them. Post the images.

Tencent adspammer gets so upset when he's exposed

Also, something else I noticed is the sub-humans are promoting Owlcat garbage while trying to say BG3 is bad. Okay, that means we'll just filter Owlcat from the board. It'll never get to appear again. Pathfinder mentioned recently, so I'll add that first.

>>715998772
It quite literally is just 1 schizo seething nonstop.
You can immediately tell by the usual signs of bringing up pathfinder and nwn out of nowhere, the loli/bestiality shitpost, posting the same 2 combat webms and his shitty AI generated jak.

>>716001620
because something I saw in this thread was
>screenshot from WOTR
>it was Russian
One of the sub-humans who replied to me was ESL, so it could easily have been a Russian. It's fine, I filtered "Pathfinder" and "WOTR" so nobody will ever get to bring it up ever again.
If I take a shit, it's smarter than anyone on this board, and they dare to fight the last 4channer left.

>>716001264
Correct me if I’m wrong but they’re still worse than archers or whatever (slayer?). I only played the PF games once but I don’t recall thinking casters were as strong as they should be early on. Late game everything became broken as shit which was super fun.
Like, the way these games ALL describe magic users you’d place the kill potential of a dozen fighters or more equal to a single wizard, and it’s nowhere close to that.

>>716000812
>Every CRPG is like this until very late game
This is objectively not true, Wasteland 3 and Divinity Original Sin 2 doesn't have the fighter class or an equivilant while in both Pillars and both Pathfinders you need CC for late act 1

>>716001324
Filter that, faggot

>>715988362
It's not my fault the game had a seizure mid act 3 transition and locked me in act 2 permanently. 2 years of dev patches btw

>>715999767
The game is piss easy and they obviously could never adjust for lv 5+ parties. It took ages for my shadow blade HM build to even do anything because vanilla div wizard Gale and vanilla battlemaster Laezel would rape half of every encounter on the first turn

>>715988362
I have it
>Honor mode run
>Isobel decides to pull a fresh one and dies to the most retarded shit ever no PC could ever do in any table
>reload by shutting the game down before it can save
I beat it.

Act 3 sets it to 7/10 down from 9/10, it's a shame. It's not even that its rushed, just tonally going from spooky shadow cursed lands and moonrise to a boring city with some sewers is such a whiplash.

>>716000676
This is still a videogame. There are limitations on how many permutations they can add tothe story paths. There are already like 5 ways to get to the underdark and 2 way to progress to act 2 with a bazillion optional areas in act 1. And that is not counting all the variation of the solutions to quests.

>>716003796
I spent more resources saving Isobel and the NPCs in the iron throne than I spent on any fight other than the very last one.

>>716004862
>Release the prisioners in the iron throne
>They just clog up the stairs and decide to drown after wasting 3 fucking turns doing nothing
hardest achievement in the game

>>715999767
Yeah none of the AI use magic until late Act 2 and you usually save it. It's not like BG1 where you die because some level 3 cleric uses hold person on you. Every encounter is just a DPS check with you needing to alpha strike a single unit down until you clear the room, preferably with fighter archers so you can attack like 5 times a turn. There's never a point like in the original game where you cast sleep as a wizard and feel like you're accomplishing something, or have your entire party cast fireball into a room just because of the availability of fireball potions. Although I guess larian's gimmick are barrels There's something offputting about playing a game like BG3 and all the characters still idling, but the animations for the cutscenes were so bad I can't really complain

>>716004047
>It's not even that its rushed, just tonally going from spooky shadow cursed lands and moonrise to a boring city with some sewers is such a whiplash.

Yeah, I think the fact that it's called Baldur's Gate kind of hurts the game. Larian felt the need to show Baldur's Gate, or the name wouldn't make sense. When you visit small exotic areas, like the jungle the Djinn sends you to, it's a lot more interesting than the city itself.
If you look at this: >>715987836
None of those screenshots are from the city. Even the middle one is Rivington, which is outside.

>>716004965
>There's never a point like in the original game where you cast sleep as a wizard and feel like you're accomplishing something
Sleep is useless in BG3 on Tactician or Honor since enemy hp is too high, even fucking random wolves. No point in getting something to half health just to put it to sleep.

>>715977284 (OP)
if you like fantasy settings(wizards and dragons), the game fucking rules.

>>716005662
Sleep is useful until about level 3. Once you're fighting anything worse than goblins, it's over.

>>716005349
I used to play World of Warcraft, and I loved this expansion. Why was there no desert area in BG3? It's because they built a huge city instead.
I love the gameplay of BG3, but the world wasn't exciting enough.

>>716005349
Because it's just a boring city where everything looks the same. It also doesn't help that everything you do is in like one neighbourhood you can walk through in 5 minutes, which ruins immersions. The city is mean to be huge! And of course not only is it a boring city, but there is an elder brain supposedly ready to take over the world and you're walking around bringing clowns back to life and doing trivial shit with no urgency. The Durge stuff was also way too short, considering how heavily involved Durge is supposed to be in the story.

>>716006093
>why no desert in the sword coast???? they build a city in it!
