    Quelle aventure !! 60 heures de jeu et je ne me lasse toujours pas. La musique, l'ambiance, le scenario, la liberté, la strategie des combats, tout est vraiment génial.
    Cependant le jeu ne plaira pas à tout le monde, c'est un gameplay assez lent, personnellement j'adore.

    New to the genre and normally not that much into such games. However this game and the community make it to easy to get into it. So much different approaches/options on how you can progress also gives the game a good reason to not just play through it once. Top 3 GOTY 2023 candidate for me

    RPG dream, an absolute masterpiece. The only drawback to this game is that I can't stop playing, which is why I've been sleepy all the time since its release. Totally worth the price.
    Thank you Larian!

    Für mich persönlich, war Final Fantasy 16 mein GOTY einfach weil es ein Spiel ist, das fertig ist ohne Mikrotransaktionen oder Battle Pass.

    Allerdings hatte ich nicht das riesige Ausmaß von BG3 auf dem Schirm. Das was geboten wird ist das was man in vielen Spielen vergeblich sucht. Jede Entscheidung kann zu Dingen führen die man nicht wollte oder doch will. Gut geschriebene Charaktere.

    Gut geschriebene Charaktere. Klasse Quests. Ein Soundtrack der begeistert. Und Wiederspielwert der einem das Spiel wieder komplett neu erleben lässt.
    Das Spiel kommt nicht ganz ohne Bugs, aber ich finde darüber kann man hinweg sehen, dafür bekommen ein Spiel geboten das es so schön lange nicht mehr gegeben hat. Man kann viel darüber schreiben und reden, aber man sollte sich sein eigenes Bild machen.
    Für die die es spielen oder gespielt haben und oder in Zukunft noch spielen wollen einfach viel Spaß     … Expand

    This is a game that runs deep with meaningful choices, strategic combat, and an authentic Dungeons and Dragons world to explore.

    Amazing game! In a time where most games that come out are money sinking half-finished rubbish. Baldur’s Gate 3 shines with a complete game with hundreds, or more like thousands of hours of gameplay to enjoy. There are some bugs here and there still, but they are outweighed by the fun I’ve been having with this game.

    What Larian Studios was able to do with 6 years of development is absolutely astounding. This game is a polished masterpiece in my opinion. Thank you, Larian crew keep on being awesome!    … Expand

    Dialogue options really change the world, and the endings. Your race, class, sub-class, and history heavily alter the choices you are given during gameplay. The difficulty is above average even on easy difficulty, but as it is possible to roll back the save, it doesn't have that much of a problem. Incredible story, good music, interesting characters. 10/10 for me.

    Created an account just to give credit to Larian where it’s due. This game is a masterpiece and despite me never playing turn-based games turned out to have everything l ever wanted to see in RPG genre - characters that you sympathize with, battles that are epic enough that you don’t feel limited by turn actions, amazing graphics that my old pc can still chew. Must play.

    I'm very grateful that Larian put out this old school game the way they did. Is it bug free? No. With gigantic content and a very large, lovingly designed game world, is it in far better condition than the dirt that all the big publishers have been putting in front of us for the last 10 years? Hell YES.

    The game boasts of a masterfully written story, where every action you take,reflects its consequences in the game world even a lot of chapters later;
    the tactical gameplay makes you use your brain in fights,even at low level, instead of just spamming op moves here and there.
    The fact that this game is set in a DND world,makes the lore even deeper,and invites the player into researching interesting facts about it.
    The game is full of memorable characters,each one with their unique traits.
    For a game this big and deep,the graphics and the 3D models are highly detailed and have top tier voice acting and good animations.The OST is simply one of the best i've ever listened in a videogame,with each villain having their own ost (a character with a name that starts with the letter "R" has one of the best ost in my opinion).
    This game is one of the best RPGs i've ever played and sits on the throne next to The Witcher 3.

    This game is awesome, and it become a serious concurrent for GOTY.

    All on this game, make you become addicted, that you want to play and never stop.
    Once you have finish the game one time, you can relaunch new one and play a total différent run, you will discover and see other cinematics and lore around characters.

    Probably one of the best game of 2023.

The only reason I give 9 is because of the act 3 and the ending it provides. You might have seen some "cut" content on the internet and the ending really leaves a bad after taste. After playing for more 100 hours you can feel that the ending is really underwhelming and missing. I think the reason for that is they had to release it a month earlier due to starfield. I am not sure when but they will probably make the ending better(probably within this year). Act 1 and Act 2 really increases your expectations about the ending but when you come to act 3 you become very disappointed. I would still recommend the game though because it is very fun to play.

And you know what? I just cannot wait for my next session with this diamond. Most games nowadays bore me pretty fast. Even the best triple AAA titles often cannot satisfy me enough, they are simply boring because of repetitiveness. Even the great God of War had this effect on me. Here every battle is different, every situation can be approached differently, and every dialog can be played in multiple ways.

    I could go on, and on like this but you get my meaning. If you like Larian latest games, then there is simply no way that you will not like BG3.

    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.
