    I have not experienced such emotions probably since I had been playing the Witcher 3. The game is very fascinating, you want to understand it, it throws up unexpected moments and immerses you in yourself, you want to associate yourself with your hero and you experience the events in the game as your own, especially knowing that the further outcome depends on your actions.

    Best Game in Years. Proves games don't have to be shooters or action games. Gorgeous, challenging if you want it that way and also has puzzles. Larian put a lot of time and money into it and it shows. EA has a lot to live up to with Dragon Age 4 next year. I mention this as they are of the same genre.

    It's Baldur's Gate 3, Divinity Original Sin 2 and Dragon Age Origins mixed together with next-gen graphics. So what does that mean, it means they made a dream RPG game, atleast for turn based RPG genre.

    It's just so refreshing and nice to know that there are game devs that just want to make games and release them in their entirety without having to milk the fans or have parts of the game locked behind a paywall - there is love in this and it shows - the game is perfect - don't really care for the bugs cause look at what we got compared to 99% of most games

This game is my new standard. I won't pre-order anymore and unless a game delivers to the level of BG3, I won't be buying it either.

    I made an account just to say how much I've fallen in love with Baldur's Gate 3, even though I don't even LIKE turn-based games much. The writing, characters, and choices you make haven't been this thrilling in ages. Could do with better inventory management though. All in all, a fantastic game made by people who clearly care.

    Didn't have high expectations going in as an old player of the original games by Bioware (BG1 & 2). Like the originals, the game immerses you in the world of Faerun in ways that I appreciate as both a fan of CRPGs and tabletop. While the game, and its design are certainly a jump ahead, compared to the simple graphics of its predecessors, its heart is in the right place.

    In a time when a lot of bigger studios seem keen on stripping games down all while maximizing profit even while games barely function at release, or even long after. Larian refreshingly presents a complete product. Well done.    … Expand

I did not expect to be a fan of the turn-based "top-down" combat style but I've become addicted to it. The ONE thing that should be considered as a bias is that I play this game with a group. I cannot say if this game would be as fun alone unless I was a hardcore fan of the combat, which I might be by the end of our run. I have clocked 20 hours into the game and haven't even completed Act 1, and I have heard that act two and three are both longer than act one. I am extremely excited to continue playing Baldurs Gate 3 and hope that Larian are able to take home GOTY with this modern sleeper hit.… Expand

What trulyBaldur's Gate 3 is a triumphant return to the beloved world of Dungeons & Dragons, offering an engaging and immersive experience that's sure to captivate both veterans and newcomers to the series. The game's story is rich and compelling, drawing on the lore of original D&D content and setting up a grand mission through the main characters' infection with a mind flayer parasite. What truly sets the narrative apart is the freedom of choice, allowing players to craft their own unique story from thousands of possibilities.

    The gameplay mechanics are faithful to the standard 5th edition D&D system, with Larian Studios infusing their signature style from previous titles like Divinity Original Sin 2. The level cap of 12 strikes a perfect balance, and combat feels authentic to a D&D tabletop experience. The game's graphics and sound are captivating, with impressive visuals and a beautiful soundtrack that includes tracks like "Down By The River." It's easy to lose yourself in the character customisation menu or be wowed by the cutscenes, creating an atmosphere akin to an interactive animated movie.

    Innovation shines through in the game's features, such as the use fall damage and environmental elements. The intelligent scaling of difficulty, where NPCs make smarter decisions at higher levels, adds depth and challenge without being overly frustrating. While some minor bugs were encountered, Larian's responsiveness to player feedback and commitment to swiftly addressing issues is commendable.

    Overall, Baldur's Gate 3 is a must-try game for players who enjoy CRPGs or RPGs as a genre. Its blend of faithful adaptation, innovative design, and attention to detail creates a rich and rewarding experience that's hard to fault. Whether you're exploring the vast world, engaging in strategic combat, or making choices that shape your unique story, this game offers something special for every RPG fan.    … Expand

    it is better then DoS2 when it comes down to scale and cinematics, however playing conjurer/necromancer is damn boring, since they nerfed Necromancy of Thai. You still likely to enjoy the game if your favorite class is warrior/barbarian/rogue, not so much with orhers

    This is an absolute marvel to play, I have sunk hours and hours into this on PS5 already. If you buy it, be prepared to get drawn into a living world where other characters remember you, and your decisions. A world where almost everything, like the real world, has ramifications, if you pick up something that does not belong to you, expect trouble, if you help someone, they are more likely to help you (or maybe even betray you) you are essentially building your own story, I’m currently playing through using my own personal values in the decision making, I expect to die many times LOL.

    The other side of this of course, is zero micro transactions, you buy the game, it’s yours, no trickery, this is getting rarer IMHO and I really value that.

    Thank you Larian Studios, you have won a fan, I love this game and I love the way you treat gamers.

    Un jeu assez bon avec une grande liberté de choix. C'était vraiment amusant à jouer.

    Most of those bugs aren't anything terrible, it's just stuff like npcs saying dialogue that doesn't line up with what you've done, helmets appearing on your companions even though you've turned them off, or your UI in combat disappearing.
    The only truly annoying bug I had was one that wouldn't let me complete a quest because the NPCs bugged out and were just standing in spot.

    Outside of that though I honestly recommend this to anyone interested in RPGs, this truly is one of the greatest games I've played, and reminds me of what made me fall in love with gaming in the first place.

    * The voice acting, music, artwork, models, and animation are all high quality. Environments feel like detailed dioramas, a joy to look at and navigate.
    * I bounced off DoS 2 due to a muddy story and simplistic combat. Neither are a problem here; quite the opposite.
    * In tabletop D&D, I get bored with combat. In BG3 there are a wealth of tactical options.
    * I often feel bored in dialogue trees in most games. But in BG3 dialogue feels meaningful since it reflects your past actions, your class and race, and you're able to use skills to affect it, as if dialogue were a mini game within a game.
    * It should be shouted from the rooftops how Larian Studios are offering a complete, polished game without microtransactions, a battle pass, and the rest of the greedy, cancerous filth that the AAA industry tries to abuse their customers with.

    I do have minor gripes. It should have UI scaling (not just cinematic, but scaling for the main UI). It mildly suffers from the classic "you have a big mission, but here's all these side quests that realistically wouldn't be done by someone on an urgent mission". And the game can feel overwhelming at first: there are so many spells, abilities, items, D&D rule quirks, etc.

    But, overall, this is some of the most fun I've had playing a video game in ages.    … Expand

Ignore the toxic negative review bombing, any sane person loves this game.

    I have already played well over 230 hours, 4 different playthroughs (some incomplete) and loved every second of it. I play DnD 5e regularly, and this is the closest thing in the video game world to simulating what it's like. The voice acting and facial expressions are outstanding, the story is captivating. The world design is stunning, the combat is so fun and feels exactly like DnD 5e with a few quality of life changes, I'm so glad they made it turn-based unlike the previous two Bauldr's Gates. You just can't have DnD without turn base combat, it doesn't work! This is by far the best Bauldr's Gate so far and definitely the best CRPG I have ever played. Act 3 could do with a touch up, but knowing Larian, they will go above and beyond to polish any shortcomings, which is why it won't affect my rating.

    Pay no heed to most of the negative reviews, other than the few disappointed by the current endings of act 3 (which still doesn't warrant giving it a negative rating at all). The other negative reviews are just toxic review bombers who are either insane homophobes, bots, DnD hater's or just people who want their pet video game (probably Zelda players) to win GOTY. These degenerates are trying their hardest to bring down the score and defame this absolute gem of a game.

    Well done Larian, you successfully achieved what you set out to do, polish act 3, fix the epilogue and you have made one of the best video games in history! Pay attention gaming industry, be like Larian.    … 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.
