    By far, the best game I have played in so long. Def worth the $60 without a doubt.

    I could call it the best RPG ever made! From the lore of Dungeons and Dragons. You could expect a lot of story and lore much more any game could provide you. While the gameplay create by Larian Studios is a masterpiece.

The story has a lot of freedom for you to adventure forth. You can play 10-20 playthrough without experience the same route and each playthrough can take up to 80-100 hours. This game is enormous.

    A lot of stuff from Early Access was cut of or totally dumbed down on release, in matter of days.
    Game is hand holding now, super easy to the point that battle may have been cut off aswell.
    Things like attribute points for each race, they use to differ, now they don't because its racist I guess.

    Things like attribute points for each race, they use to differ, now they don't because its racist I guess.
    On top of that most of studios effort went to Act 1 which is a bait as it was developed for 5 years in Early Access it was a "hint" a "showcase" a "proof" how game should / would be. But it is a lie.
    So, Act 1 being good, Act 2 being mediocre, Act 3 story and environment all stuffed in cramped.
    There is also forced diversity in terms of sex, and I don't mean bisexual romance, I mean how most white men are not only portrayed as bad or weak, they also lack in game. Women are in charge for everything. I am a feminist and I feel like these "revenge" attitudes are just annoying witch hunt that makes games and movies predictable thus boring. It is an age we are living, each has its symptoms, children of the future will facepalm and / or eyeroll when they look upon it.
    Game is more Neverwinter Nights then Baldur's Gate.
    There are not enough diverse environments because diversity was forced elsewhere like I stated above.
    It is still a good game, just not a perfect score like modern marketing professionals would make it.
    There are plenty of bugs, and camera keeps fighting the player.
    Voice acting and music is good. Graphics are good except environment stuff like mountains cliffs etc.
    Anyway, same thing happened to Diablo 4, hype aggressive marketing that makes mindless consumers defend it with their life.
    With few fixes it would be 10/10 but those are not gonna happen.

    So much fun to play. Never been a fan of RPG's or Turn based combat but the visuals and story options and characters and world and choices and everything I didn't mention make it so much fun to play. If i could sacrifice my nuts to forget everything about the game and play it again for the first time. I would.

    Sets standard for co-op games. The co-op feature is fully independent, each player can pop-in to the others dialogue and battles. It's also friendly to non-gamers since combat is turn-based, it can be easily learned.

    The game-play is so different to what I am used to, I was a bit iffy about it being turn based combat, but once I got into it I learned that its so much more complex. Heaps of YouTube videos out that will explain everything to you in case you don't understand it either.

    I have not been too much into D&D and it's world before, even though I like fantasy. Initially I also thought the turn based combat is a huge turn off, as I'm not a fan of that gameplay design either. However, watching videos of the early access combat and larians approach to a world building and reactivity within that world is something my heart longed for since the Fallout series.

However, watching videos of the early access combat and larians approach to a world building and reactivity within that world is something my heart longed for since the Fallout series. You are rewarded for paying attention in both lore and the story itself, your choices carry an immense amount of importance to how the story proceeds. Additional voiced cutscenes with dialogue based on as smth as a little tiny note in a secluded hidden area? insane, there is filled to the brim with things you can miss and this is OK, even better to find something new on a new character! This game is packed with so much stuff and the replayability if you missed something or wanted to try a different approach to quests is insane. The combat is super fun, no fight is the same and scales nicely based on the diffculty, I've tried all of them with seperate playthrough I've started. The companions all have unique personalites and have great stories with all of them feeling like actual people with conviction and ideals. And still they are developing over time, making them do thing different then they would gives them a perspective and they change their ways quite drastically.

    There is so much more to say, but it all boils down to: This game is unique and we will not see in this decade. It opened a whole new world to me that me and my friends are excited to delve in to and Larian should be proud of this beautiful masterpiece they have created. Finally a studio that understands what people want; Because they are just creating a game THEY would want to play. Thank you so much, Larian.    … Expand

    I don't play CRPGs, the turn based gameplay always seemed repetitive and boring to me. I can safely say that Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the best games I have ever played. After the prologue, it absorbs you into the D&D universe and does not let you go, because you don't want it to. I would recommend it to anyone in a heartbeat.

    This game and every single person involved deserved the praise and reward they've earned since this game's release (even since Early Access). The passion from the team bleeds heavily into the full game. From character design, story, music, art, choices and many many more aspects of the game that we'll never see. And god damn it shows how much they care about this product and the legacy that the "Baldur's Gate" name carries on with Larian studios and Baldur's Gate III, forever endeared in my heart.

    I thought I've reached an age where I stopped enjoying video games, but this game made me realise that I live in the time where most video game companies are just copy-paste cashgrabs and eventually everyone in the community forgot what it feels like to enjoy an actual game.

    It makes me feel like a kid, wanting to do just one more quest before switching off, only to realise it's 4am, I have a job and no longer a kid that have ample free time. It's like coming out of a toxic relationship thinking "damn maybe the problem lies with me" only to be welcomed by Baldur's Gate III that actually understands you, makes it really easy to talk to and make an effort back to them instead of feeling like doing a chore when doing anything with them for hours on end and you never want it to end.

    Thank you Larian for producing such an amazing game, cultivating a great community behind it, and showcasing to others in the industry that once again, Games can be fun.    … Expand

    This game is absolutely incredible. Baldur's Gate 3 is the new standard by which not only RPGs should be measured, but video games as a medium. The love, care, and attention to detail at every angle is staggering. Larian Studios is leading by example and showing the rest of the industry how it's done.

On to the actual game itself; incredible! Every choice matters, even the small, seemingly insignificant ones can alter the story in ways you wouldn't expect leading to a "What if I did this differently?" curiosity that makes replaying the game very satisfying. The combat (although I didn't enjoy it at first since I'm usually not a fan of turn based combat) is very engaging and thought provoking, encouraging you to use trial and error to figure out the best way to best enemies.

    And finally, the characters. Oh the characters are so amazingly written, each having a very in depth personal quest that you can affect in a multitude of ways depending on if you have romanced them, they like you or they despise you. Each companion feels important to the story, like they belong in the world and that their opinions and feelings matter to your own character. All in all, there are a million ways to handle every situation and that is what makes this game just so damn good. The developers should be damn proud of this and I couldn't recommend it enough!    … Expand

    Firstly, unlike in BG1 and BG2, in BG3 there is no Day/Night cycle which takes away from immersion of the world.

    Secondly I prefer starting small to see the progress of the characters in their journey into more fantastic areas/characters later on. BG3 started over the top in the Nine Hells, inside a teleporting Illithid ship chased by dragons and more Tieflings – that are considered to be rare – than humans in the first act.

    Thirdly, I would love to have an option to disable the cinematic camera in conversations. I rather prefer to play the game fully in a top down view and let my imagination work on it, rather than seeing 3D models from close-up, where they lose their charm and fidelity. The models look amazing from afar, but while being unmatched for this type of game, they still aren‘t good enough for close-ups.

    Conclusion: For this reason I would give it only a 8/10. But I will add 1 point to the fact, that I‘ve been waiting for a game like this for over 20 years now and I am just glad it happened, making it a 9/10.    … 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.
