    This game is very overhyped. Bad optimization, mediocre gameplay. Look like this is still beta version.

    the game is okay, the gameplay and story are fine but there is a huge problem with the game. There are no microtransactions, I love microtransactions, they are the best part of any game I play most of the time and without them the game just feels empty

    No amount of good core concepts and followthrough can fix what is a fundamentally broken game. BG3 is chock-full of bugs of all sorts that make the game quite literally unplayable, and they only get progressively worse as your save file bloats and time goes on.

Madder still, they've been in early access getting free testing for how long yet still could not improve the state of it. I have not played such a buggy game at launch since Arkham City, it is miserable. I suspect all the people reviewing positively are not actually far into the game, only seeing the turoial and early areas which have the most polish (yet are still pretty janky). Either that or people are simply lying to themselves about how functional it is. No game should allow you to fall through the world and hardlock you from progressing at launch, I don't care how rocky development was. BG3 is fundamentally broken and I can't in good conscience rate it higher unless they fix it. It is truly sad, as the core gameplay and story are genuinely great.… Expand

    I never thought I'd play another game as good as Divinity: Original Sin 2 in my lifetime, which was crowd funded on Kickstarter by the way. Baldur's Gate 3 has absolutely improved in every single aspect all while being on the brink of bankruptcy. Ever hear of a AAA game company almost going broke? No, because they don't make games, they make money, greedy F******.

Playing, precisely from the point of view of the player’s interaction with the game, is catastrophically boring!!! They could do everything the same in terms of plot and features, but add a normal camera, a combat system like in Skyrim or the Witcher, for example, and an open world. But it’s much easier to make a technically and gameplayally outdated boring game and hype it thanks to DND fans and the sexual preoccupation of some people who came to see who else they could sleep with besides a bear. At the same time other people, due to social pressure, began to convince themselves that that they like it too. Why did technology and industry evolve? Why did people create 3D graphics, open worlds, 4K, unreal engine 5, RTX? So that in 15 years THIS is considered the best game? I refuse to understand this. Bg3 is not a bad indie, but nothing more. Never again.    … Expand

    I was also very disappointed by Baldur's Gate 3, as some other reviews have already well explained. I thought I'd get a sequel to some of my favorite games. I got a completely different game, supposedly "the best RPG forever", but stopped playing only after a few hours because it wasn't my type of game, although many of my favorite games are story-heavy RPGs with tactical gameplay. (ForI was also very disappointed by Baldur's Gate 3, as some other reviews have already well explained. I thought I'd get a sequel to some of my favorite games. I got a completely different game, supposedly "the best RPG forever", but stopped playing only after a few hours because it wasn't my type of game, although many of my favorite games are story-heavy RPGs with tactical gameplay. (For example: Baldur's Gate 1 and 2, Icewind Dale 1 and 2, Planescape Torment, Wasteland 3)

    Why is this called Baldur's Gate? If you want to make something new, why not also call it something new and independent?

    3 points I'd like to add:

    - Combat in the original games took 5-10 minutes. BG3's encounters drag on way too long for what they are, some take more than an hour, missing the social interaction you would have playing a tabletop rpg. In comparison, Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 used the computer as a means to faithfully realize the vision of D&D: D&D's rules say that one round equals 6 seconds in which all characters act. That's how you normally imagine the action sitting at a table and how DMs tell the story. The table-top experience is turn-based out of necessity. A limitation a computer isn't bound to.

    - The inventory management is very cumbersome. There's too much loot you don't know if it's trash or not and it takes a lot of time to sift through.

    - Glitchy performance and a lot of frame drops on my system in comparison to all other current games I've played which run fine.

    Suddenly, Larian was not only painted as the "underdog" fighting against "big evil publishers". No, it was attacked for having developed the "best RPG of the decade", a "singularity". So much is true: Might have been the best social media marketing of the year.

    "There is no opinion, however absurd, which men will not readily embrace as soon as they can be brought to the conviction that it is generally adopted. Example affects their thought, just as it affects their action. They are like sheep following the bell-wether just as he leads them." (Schopenhauer)

    In conclusion: BG3 indeed is a phenomenon considering its marketing and the impact social influencers had within the last two months.    … Expand

    Fights are really slow, even tiny battles feel endless. The talking is as bad as fan stories. The friends are either bothersome or not at all interesting. And the whole game is very dirty and full of weird stuff. It's really disappointing to see what they did with Baldur's Gate. I won't play it again.

    It's a 4/10 for me. It is not Baldur's Gate rather it is a Divinity Original Sin 3 in a supposed D&D Forgotten Realms setting.
    It should be named anything else than Baldur's Gate, the name was used to draw attention of fans of BG1 and BG2 also IW/IW2 fans along but it's a totally different game.

    Also if it would be named like that I would just simply avoid buying it so probably that was the plan - squeeze some money based on nostalgia.

    The combat is dull, takes too much time, even the simplest encounters are spread to several minutes (yes I know it's based on tabletop D&D which is turn based bla bla bla ...) That supposed "swarm mechanics" is not working as it was advertised.
    Game is totally out of any form of balance - it's more of a D&D based Dark Souls with very heavy emphasis on tactics like a Jagged Alliance game would be.
    You party is mostly on a disadvantage and heavily outnumbered - which is infuriating at lower levels where your mage and cleric are put down like dogs in the 1st 2 turns of combat, the enemies can dash from any distance to your party while your characters can barely do 5 steps.
    Party composition is not the best - if you think about this later on in the game you're very limited to your character and you need to disband one of the interesting characters Larian created cause your party composition will be bad (or you will miss out on some opportunities, fail some crucial dice rolls due to doing ability checks that are not proficient with which results in spamming quick save - quick load which breaks the game feel for me).
    The rewards for completing fights (loot and gear) are in 95% of cases, worthless and pathetic. Most of the items that you find do ot benefit you like you would like it to be - you don't feel your characters gaining power. Still they get the same ass whooping from all directions like before.
    Also in the gameplay what I don't like is that I'm constantly going forwards and forwards and forwards with the main story line. There's no rest, there's no such thing like having a stop, going to a tavern, getting some quests and getting new good gear and decent XP as rewards.
    No. Seems that from Dungeons & Dragons we did not get the dungeons to explore (point of reference would be the BG2 once you leave the 1st dungeon to Athkatla and there's a whole game world waiting for you). During exploration, almost everywhere you go there are OP enemies that outnumber you so again there's something wrong with the game balance (not to mention enemies that roll with 600 or 300HP once you're like 6th or 7th level).
    I don't even want to write about the skills and the dice rolls ... it's infuriating and spamming the quick save/load breaks the feel of the game.

    Advantages are:
    + characters(party members Lae'zel, Shadowheart),
    + graphics & animations,
    + overall optimization,
    + some parts of the world (some are not - no spoilers),
    + a lot of voice interactions (even if an NPC has 1 line of text - it's voice acted),
    + music is quite Ok.

    Most of the stuff is very good but for me the show stopper are the things listed below:
    - boring and dull combat system with not working what was advertised
    - balance of the game (including party composition of 4)
    - rewards, XP and gear is weak
    - no sort of a "sandbox" where you can skip out of the main story and get some better gear and level up (map exploration doesn't count cause you' low level/low HP while enemies are tougher, in higher numbers and you're dead most of the time)

    Long time D&D lover, but this has just been obnoxiously difficult to play. I've clocked in 28 hours or so in, and I'm just not finding myself having any fun. If I'm spending money on a game, I need to primarily have fun. The designs are amazing, fantastic really, but that's not enough for a video game in 2023.

    ok the negatives.. 1/ i hate the turn based battles, slow, boring and tedious, coming from someone who loves assassin's creed odyssey and origins, this was my first turn based game, i was enticed with all the great reviews, but these slow turn based battles are a complete immersion breaker and real life is not turn based!
    2/ the character generation seems very strange and even pandering to the woke obsessed minority, women with beards looking like disturbing drag queens high on drugs? and what's with the crazy obsession with genitalia size and shape etc, why do we need that? there are dedicated sex games to cater for that nonsense.
    3/ camera controls using limited isometric zoom and rotation in only one axis seems somewhat odd and limiting.
    4/ map exploration is very limited and each section you are in seems very small and is not really open world, its more of a limited follow the preordained paths world.
    5/ last but not least, the actual gameplay seems clunky, almost in the rails..go this one way or the next which all lead to the next level door/opening etc, it all seems very controlled, limiting and preordained. you cant really explore or go off and do whatever mission you like or pursue a different objective...everything is spoon fed to you ..including the cutscenes and next objective....couple all that with a lame, turn based battle system which only serves to add unnecessary hours of tedium and delay in achieving your next preordained objective....spoils the whole experience for me. i realise many will find this game a satisfying slow romp...but to me its put me off turn based games for life! never again. 3 out of 10...its got more issues than most either realise or care to admit.    … Expand

    In virtually every way, except for graphics, it is a major step back from Divinity: Original Sin 2. Which would be bad enough if it was named DOS3, but it's also trying to go after Baldur's Gate nostalgia, and for some reason Swen thinks the best way to go about that is to crap all over those great games. Here's why it's bad and not worth your money:

    -janky combat (mixture of Larian jank and 5e, both of which are bad enough, but mixed together are somehow even worse)
    -turn-based combat with 5e is awful. Larian tried to spice things up by giving everyone push actions and inserting other random stuff so you're not just sitting there waiting 5 mins each turn just to auto-attack, but that is just a poor attempt to hide the problem.
    -writing is immature, bad, and destroys immersion. People play/read fantasy as escapism, not to be moralized at by kindergarteners.
    -no real choices: In an rpg you generally get to make somewhat meaningful choices while due to the limitations of computer software you're kept on the theme park ride to an extent. Choices in this game are things like: So-and-so has a magical bomb in his chest from sleeping with the goddess of magic (at lvl1). If you get upset with him proffering gay sex on your first meeting and your character murders him, 2 days later your game world will explode and it's game over.
    -choices have no impact on future acts
    -buggy
    -follows typical larian pattern of only polishing act1 and the game gets worse and worse, until you get to an act3 that is a disaster
    -ending is awful (you have about 3)
    -egregious amount of sex that does nothing to further immerse you in the game world or plot. It's simultaneously less believable than a harem anime and more grotesque than pornography.
    -companions are all un-fun and obnoxious. They're clearly self-inserts by Larian staff, and this tells you a lot about why the game is so trashy. Larian said we'd get better companions after EA since they were only playtesting the worst ones (evil alignments), but this was clearly a lie. What they added in the full-release are cash-grab cameos that (also poorly done) of jaheira, minsc etc. So you're still stuck with the same group of unfun rapey companions unless you go full murder hobo and kill everyone (which is honestly the lesser of two evils here).
    -UI is atrocious. No filtering of items. No text scaling (except for the dialogue that's already voiced, poorly). Clearly a compromise between console UI and PC UI, and bad at both. Larian has had the same UI issues since DOS1 and they're only making it worse (somehow).
    -Combat is somehow worse than a 25 year old game. Larian's combat designer hates normal combat and honestly thinks throwing barrels at things and pushing enemies off ledges is fun. Instead it just turns this into a game of gimmicks, where you can either shoot a chandelier onto the big baddie every encounter and win, or play normally and frustrate yourself.
    -Music is dull and uninspired
    -Dishonest marketing, dishonest sequel, zero respect for the fans, and in every way a step back from a game made 25 years ago.    … Expand

    Not sure what to say, other than that i'm simply not impressed. I was expecting way more, after this kind of overhype. It would be decent indie gem, but sadly it has very ancient combat system, it was cool in 1995, but it's just not fun anymore, at least for me.

    As an avid Dungeons & Dragons fan, it pains me to say that Baldur's Gate 3 falls short of capturing the essence of the beloved tabletop game. The game's narrative lacks the depth and intricacy that we've come to expect from the Baldur's Gate series.

    Overall boring indie game, combat is obviously outdated, unless you wanna feel nostalgic and pretend it's 90s again. I personally don't want to do that. Graphics are fine, but nothing amazing, not even comparable to stuff like Cyberpunk 2077.

    A big red flag for me was when the marketing was 80% about romances and character creation instead of gameplay.

Writing its cringe, i don't use that word a lot, but its the true, romances and s#4x scenes are there just for marketing and to bait people into playing the game, they serve no purpose for the game.

    MC is mute, other than some grunts and short one liners when you click objects etc. And only 4 voices, for both male and female combined. Want to play a rough and tough half-orc Barbarian brute? enjoy sounding like a posh british dude. Thankfully you can turn these remarks off and enjoy a fully silent MC. By the way, Wrath of the Righteous (WOTR) had like 8 voices, PER SEX.

    Skill checks during dialogue only use the char who is talking, other party members are useless. If you accidentally start dialogue with someone, like running into a room which automatically triggers dialogue, and there's an Arcana skill check for example, which the character cant do, your Mage companion just chills and is useless. Thats a quickload. Also there's no indication which dialogue option moves the conversation forward. If you click it accidentally but wanted to ask the other questions first, quickload.

    And better get in the habit of quickloading and quicksaving, since there's no time-based autosave. People lose 30-60 mins of progress because they forgot to press F5 every 5 minutes.

    Highlight (hold only, no toggle) doesnt show interactables, only lootable containers/bodies. And from those half are missing too like vases, boxes etc. Loot is 99% trash, yet the world is littered with containers so you better check them all in case you dont miss out on anything worthwhile.

    UI/UX is godawful. Inventory management is the worst I've experienced in a very long time. There's no tabs for different item categories, its all in just one big pile. Every character has their own inventory and carry weight too for no reason. Half the game consists of fighting the inventory. You have to right-click to get a pop-up menu to mark items as junk one by one, and there's no sell all junk button. So its useless. After a few hours in the game I stopped picking up loot because I didnt want to micromanage my inventory anymore. Surely a sign of a great cRPG.

    Thanks to the brain-dead design of 5th edition of DnD, getting a level is not exciting at all. My Rogue companion got 2 level ups and no options to choose anything except a specialization. One choice for like 6 hours of gameplay. Build diversity and depth is in the gutter, especially if youre coming from Pathfinder games. Level cap is 12 and you get a feat once per 4 levels. Thats 3 feats for an entire playthrough. In WOTR some classes start the game with 3 feats, with a level cap of 20 and a feat every second level.

    The map is bad. And you cant click on the map to move the party, you have to close the map, then remember where you were looking to go while the map was open. There's no indication of camera position on the map either.

    Dialogue is cringe inducing at most times. So far none of the companions are enjoyable, and most are irritating. You have a rude girlboss fighter, an aloof gay elf vampire who totally isnt a vampire, a token black dude, and a forgettable priestess. The mage companion Gale is best of the bunch. Who also turns out to be gay.

    WOTR does everything this game does, except the cinematics and graphics, and does it much, much better. All this game made me feel is firing up WOTR again, for the 6th playthrough.    … Expand

Of course the critics were going to praise this game. Literally any game where you play as weirdo with elf ears and a giant axe/sword is a guaranteed critic darling, as long as it's playable. That doesn't surprise me, but what does surprise me is these COD-hating Millennials calling this quality. Are you freaking kidding me? This outdated indie piece of garbage can't even let me do something as simple as opening doors in real-time, and people want to call this quality? It's embarrassing that I've played PS1 games where the protagonists actually open doors, and this 2023 $60 game can't even do that. Instead, doors magically open themselves in this game. Nothing can be opened in real-time. I can make plenty of examples of this game lacking quality, but I feel like my blood pressure is going to increase out of all this anger.

    The greedy developers are charging $60 for an indie quality game. When I pay $60, I expect top-notch AAA quality. The graphics are PS3 quality. The animations are PS2 quality. The lighting is horrendous. The physics are beyond horrible. The lip syncing is a joke. The dialogue is cringeworthy. The textures in this game makes me want to puke. The gameplay is boring and repetitive. The dice-rolling is 2D animation-based. The developers were too greedy and lazy to make 3D physics-based dice-rolling. It's funny seeing other developers either supporting this game or claiming this game is "Rockstar scope" level. They know darn well this "Rockstar level" stuff isn't even remotely true. Forget Rockstar, this isn't even on Ubisoft's level. This is blatant propaganda to get players to demand for these low quality games. That way, these lazy and greedy developers can avoid making true AAA games. This game takes a massive amount of GB. Clearly these developers are too lazy to compress their game, which explains why they're making excuses to not port it on Xbox this year.

    The co-op multiplayer is trash. The developers believe you should get the complete game with no additional purchases. I appreciate that, but that's pretty easy to brag about when your game is already overpriced. If these developers were genuine about their beliefs, they would've charged $40 at best for this indie quality game, and not charge a AAA price of $60. I will not praise these developers for lack of MTX. They want me to praise them for that, then they better add real-time online PvP. Until then, they are greedy and lazy, worse than EA. At least EA doesn't feel the need to resort to the laziest combat system possible for their full-priced games. They put actual combat in their games, not this cheap and lazy turn-based system. I'm sick of hearing people compare the broken state of AAA games to this indie garbage. This game has turn-based combat, it be pathetic for any developer to mess that up. Even then, this game still had bugs and glitches. I don't recommend this overpriced indie joke of a game at all.

Like seriously, if this game released in 1999, it would have been just as popular as all the other games like this one, in other words....not too popular. These games had decent fanbase on PC, but they were never mainstream level. They weren't even comparable to Age of Empires.

    But now it's 2023 and everyone takes gaming more seriously than religion and bunch of different people are overhyping this game for different reasons. There are diablo fans (haters), there are those who forgot that Final Fantasy hasn't been turn based for 20 years and want new games to be turn based and then there are those who like to go along with hypetrain, without even caring if the game is actually any good.

    Baldur's Gate 3 feels like it took a detour through the Divinity realm. The game's craftsmanship is evident, but it's like expecting a dragon and getting a fairy - both magical, just different vibes. Some newer, 'woke' elements felt like seasoning I didn't order. While I appreciate innovation, it's not the kind I particularly cherish. I just missed that classic Baldur's Gate flavor.

    Turn base check. why is this game turned based? its 2023 not the 90's. turn based is something that needs to completely die so gaming can reach its next level. the only thing keeping turn base alive are boomers because their fingers cant play a real game without getting arthritis.

    Just like boomers are holding back the world, boomers are holding back video games with their outdated mindsets and refusing to adapt.

    You can see this when they whine and cry when a game is not turn based but log in their metacritic accounts to give a 10 score to their favorite game being turn base like this one.

    Not a good game, slowpaste and a rip off dnd. If you like dnd then enjoy this game but overall the game is average and nowadays people overhype wrong games.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Un sin sentido que el juego que se jacta de su libertad, tenga una creacion de personajes tan basica en cuanto apariencia, y ademas que esta no se pueda cambiar en medio del juego. Un sin sentido. Mas alla es un juego enorme y de buena calidad para los requisitos que pide.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is fun, but the animal violence is excessive. Very cruel and unecessary. Also, the ability to romance a bear (I don’t care that it’s actually a human) is just wrong on every level. Wish they put more effort into gameplay than they did for animal romance.… Expand

    Não gostei nada do game, estão superestimando pela nostalgia de dd, mas não traz nada que realmente inove ou valha a pena dedicar algumas horas nele!

    I am so glad D4 and BG3 released so closely together. It shows the absolute worst of the gaming industry in contrast with an honest, complete, great game devoid of microtransactions, battle passes, loot boxes and other scams.

    별로 재미없는 쓰레기 게임이다. 렉과 발적화, 프레임 저하가 심하다. PC게임인데도 불구하고 장점이 없다. 스토리도 별로 재미없다. 스토리게임인데 스토리가 뻔하다.

    Realmente no me gusta el tipo de jugabilidad, siento que para lo que pudo ser el juego con sus graficos e historia tendria una mejor jugabilidad, el combate es aburrido despues de un tiempo y su mecanica de turnos algo que ya cansa , con 0 accion y sin ganas de repetir las mismas mecanicas esperando que algo cambie

    The GOTY of the year 2023
    A real RPG without in-game purchases for cosmetics, dlcs or other, finally a complete game that is not buggy
    A real return to basics, and it's nice

    Deceived that the stream lags, although Act 3 lags. Deceived that the plot will not be around illithids.
    There are no quests for the goblin faction. Very easy fights. Well, a lot of bugs. Boring plot. Boring characters. Early Access V2.0

    The lack of micro transactions and relative polish justify the game's price tag. I disagree with negative reviews that this game is too expensive for what it is. Larian are to be lauded for sticking to pro-consumer methods. That being said, the content of the game is bad. The voice acting at times sounds sound-boothy, and it isn't helped by the insufferable dialog and character writing.The lack of micro transactions and relative polish justify the game's price tag.

I get a lot of people like this game, and find it liberating. I found it surprisingly limiting for creative choices after hearing about the vast freedom. The clips I see of people going "omg that worked" all seem fairly obvious to me. Sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't. I don't think it's a good game, but I respect Larian.… Expand

    They mispelled Divinity Original Sin 3. I don't like this one bit. It's NOT Baldur's Gate. Next time, do fekin faced with pause, as was the original. Or ask to see the % of users that would prefer it. Fekin Pillars of Eternity 2 or even Fallout Tactics could do both. You couldn't.

    Some fps issues but a lot of texture pop ins.
    Not a fan of turn base games and think this game even if pulling away from its origins didn’t really require turn based strategy even so story was ok.
    The fact that they used this game for clout and still are has put a dark shadow over it for me.

    This game was extremely buggy on release, with corrupted saves and game breaking quests ruining my experience. It is an enormous RPG that is far too big, with at least half the quests and places of interest being average to below average. The game would have been far better if they trimmed 30% of the weakest quests and tightened the game significantly. There is a huge amount of filler inThis game was extremely buggy on release, with corrupted saves and game breaking quests ruining my experience. It is an enormous RPG that is far too big, with at least half the quests and places of interest being average to below average. The game would have been far better if they trimmed 30% of the weakest quests and tightened the game significantly. There is a huge amount of filler in the form of books, quests, NPC's and unnecessary dialogue. For example, you walk into a pub and there are 15 NPC's standing or walking about. You have to talk to every single one because one or two of them will either give you a quest or will be required for a quest, but at least half the time the game will not indicate if an NPC is important or not. So you talk to each NPC in turn and 90% of them have absolutely nothing interesting, important or useful to say. But each one forces you into a cutscene-esque dialogue which wastes loads of time and completely takes you out of your immersion. Also the combat, while decent, takes absolutely forever with 50 monsters each taking 20 seconds per individual turn, making you watch monsters glitch about for at least 5 hours per turn before you get to move.

    The game has countless problems like this and they only serve to waste your time. Wait at least 2 years until mods and updates have fixed all the issues, then play this game, for a much better experience. However, understand that even with all the problems fixed it will only be an 8 at best because of all the filler and average/weak quests.    … Expand

    With a vast world to explore with varied stories and secrets to discover, Baldur's Gate 3 definitely shines. The cast is largely appealing and voice acting is top notch all-around, even if the storytelling and line delivery is varied in its pace. Character progression is somewhat weak in the opening levels but has a strong foundation for a great buildcraft experience, even if it lacks some on the fly experimentation seen in Larian's past efforts. Despite some performance woes in the later parts of the game and controller hangups, this is a journey worth taking for fans of Dungeons & Dragons or those new to the role playing field.

    Larian Studios, the creators of the latest installment, have gone to great lengths to make sure they didn't disgrace any of the franchise's building blocks. The love and care is evident in Baldur's Gate 3, though needless to pretend, there aren't a few bricks crumbling here and there in this monument. It's far from a perfect title, but on the whole Baldur's Gate 3 is a brilliant computer RPG that is undoubtedly not to be overlooked. [Issue#329]

    Baldur’s Gate III is a title that many would not have thought possible just a few years ago. The game serves to further Larian Studios’s already strong reputation, and the studio deserves massive credit for refusing to panic, taking its time to get things right, and continuing to offer improvements even after launch at an impressive rate. Hopefully, it is able to reap the richly deserved rewards for doing so.
