Aug 11, 2023It is definitely a perfect example of a role model in the gaming industry.
An absolute masterpiece for fans of the genre and a sign that there's still hope for modern games. -

Aug 11, 2023Baldur's Gate 3 is an absolute masterpiece that takes the RPG genre to new heights, delivering an unparalleled gaming experience that will leave you utterly spellbound. Larian Studios has outdone themselves, crafting a game that seamlessly blends captivating storytelling, breathtaking visuals, and deep gameplay mechanics into a symphony of gaming perfection. This is 100% game of the year!
-
Aug 11, 2023100% GOTY. There is no way that some DLC for Zelda will be rated higher than this big and interesting journey.
-
Aug 11, 2023This game showing we,the gamers,can be treated with respekt. Baldurs gate 3 is complete game, complete product, complete expirience with working plethora of mechanics, posibilities and vary good scenario in plural. This is not half ptofuct for full price from gigantic companies. Yes you xan!
-
Aug 5, 2023Larian's best game and the best CRPG right now. This game is literally DnD on steroids and easily be the game of the year.
-
Aug 11, 2023Overall boring indie game, combat is obviously outdated, unless you wanna feel nostalgic and pretend it's 90s again.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.
-
Aug 11, 20231010 one of the best Games i played in years! No microtransactions or **** dls, just a great finished game, i hope more games will come out like this
-
Aug 11, 2023Probably going to be game of the year.
I really love it! There is just so much freedom in this game. So much immersion. It's amazing. -
Aug 11, 2023Probably RPG of the decade. Unbelievable amount of quality content with player choice and consequence. Strongly recommend for every gamer even if you usually are not into turn based rpgs.
-
Aug 11, 2023love everything about the game except the turn based combat. kudos to larian studios for making such a great game.
-
Aug 11, 2023Larian nos ha traído el mejor rpg de la historia a día de hoy, simplemente espectacular y abrumador. Impresionante!!

Aug 11, 2023Fights 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.
-
Aug 11, 2023This game has made me happy about gaming again. Its such a high quality game clearly made with love and passion instead of only checking of a checklist of things there should be in a game.
-
Aug 11, 2023
-
Aug 11, 2023Even me, who is new to this genre, impressed me. Great game. A real role-playing game. I don't think it will get any better.
-
Aug 11, 2023Best game ever. Buy it just trust me dont listen to soy noobs. Spent 150 hours in this game and will spent more if i have time to
-
Aug 11, 2023My first ever CRPG game and I'm loving it, they have really polished this game over the last 3 years and is 100% contender for GOTY without a doubt
-
Aug 11, 2023I had high expectation because I was hyped by the first and second games of this trilogy. I wasn't disappointed and the quality of the scripts, the immersion, the game play, everything show me that this game is the best RPG game ever.
-
Aug 11, 2023Rare to find a game these days where you pay one price and one price only and get thousands of hours worth of gameplay. Loads of customization on characters amazing story great cutscenes and good looking game. The Big companies need to tanke notice. No massive issues with release it was very smooth. Game of the year if not decade
-
Aug 11, 2023Me and my partner cannot get enough, this game is amazing in scope and polish. What this team has achieved is truly breath taking! Thank you Larien for bringing us so much joy
-
Aug 11, 2023There should be more companies that think about making a good game well done and put money in the background, which will come anyway. 10 not for the game, but for the commitment and attention given to development even after launch.
-
Aug 11, 2023It's very rare when I can't stop playing. This year brought so many disappointing games, but this is not one of them.
-
Aug 11, 2023Game of the year to me. Larian Studios proved again that they know what they are doing.
-
Aug 11, 2023
-
Aug 11, 2023Why can I not give 11 as a score?
The only people who should not like this gem of a game should either hate turn based combat or RPGs. -
Aug 11, 2023Besides Divinity: Original Sin II the best game in 10 years. Baldurs Gare 3 shouldnt exist but it does and it‘s all I have been waiting for 3 years
-
Aug 11, 2023Probably the best game I have been playing since a VERY long time.
Addictive, story is **** amazing I can't wait to discover the rest of the game.
If you are familiar and like the turn combat system mod. It is a masterpiece. -

Aug 11, 2023The game has multiple unique properties that make it awesome. In my opinion the story telling, the continously more immersive story and the plethora of good writen character makes this a 10/10 rpg. Moreover every combat situation has been challenging fun and I never encountered something that felt unlogical or unnecessary.

Aug 11, 2023This is a letter from love to videogamers, what a game, this game remembered me why i love videogames so much.
-
Aug 11, 2023This is how game should be made. Amazing story, amaazing gameplay and amazing company!
-
Aug 11, 2023The game is great. It is also very good to have Turkish language support. I hope we can see it in other games. A behaviour that all companies should take as an example. Thank you for this.
-
Aug 11, 2023A new standard point for the RPG genre.
This game feels like a cool dungeons and dragons adventure, and the whole plot make the player choices truly important for the whole mood
Just impressive -
Aug 11, 2023The 3 years in early access has this done this game the world of good.
I have not enclosed one bug so far ( to my amazement), compelled story and characters are abound.
Beautiful and easy to understand gameplay, top tier voice acting aswell.
The perfect game for those wanting to start dipping their toes into this genre. -
Aug 11, 2023Fantastic game, only held back by crashes and scripting issues. But t will likely be a 10/10 befor ethe end of the year.
-
Aug 11, 2023This is the best thing that has happened to the gaming industry over the past 5 years. It turns out that if you do not make battle passes and other rubbish, but are inspired to make an interesting game, then people like it! Who would have thought? :)))
-
Aug 11, 2023I have been playing D&D every Friday for around 8 years or so now and I have been looking for a video game equivalent for a long time now, but none have ever felt close to what D&D can bring. This is the first time I have ever seen a video game come close to the feeling that D&D gives and I highly recommend it.
-
Aug 11, 202310/10 - best cRPG ever and sets a standard that game developers should strive for.

Aug 10, 2023A worthy gave to carry the D&D IP, a worthy successor to BG1&2 and a worthy 3rd game after DOS1&2.
For context the best game for me was KOTOR 1 .....I can say now confidently after so many hours that BG3 surpassed it and my expectations! The Story, the VA, the environment, the choices, the combat everything is spectacular!!! THANK YOU -
Aug 10, 2023The best RPG I ever played. I'm so impressed with Larien who made this game
-

Aug 10, 2023Saw that this game is getting 0 point reviews from idiots. So I'm leaving a 10 point one as counter.
-
Aug 10, 2023Definitivamente era lo que esta industria del videojuego necesitaba algo fresco aunque de un estilo conocido pero mejorado al máximo con verdaderas innovaciones, no un refrito o un juego repetitivo, solo se que es una obra maestra.
-
Aug 10, 2023I gotta tell you, it was perfect... Perfect. Everything... Down to the last minute details.
-
Aug 10, 2023I'm now 32 hours into BG3, I spent my whole week on this game Love from divinity 2 to this
-
Aug 10, 2023Giving this a 10 because it's not made by Blizzard and Githyankis are cool.
-
Aug 10, 2023Master Piece I love this game. I think it maybe the game of year.
Good well Larian -

Aug 10, 2023Easily the best game of this generation, maybe even the best game of all time. The unlimited possibilities of crpg combined with great voice acting and cutscenes is unbelievable.
-
Aug 10, 2023Such freedom of customizations of characters, indepth stories and just overall enjoyable gameplay
-
Aug 10, 2023Эта та рпг, которую я всю жизнь искал. Лариан просто цари...

Aug 10, 2023No estoy exagerando cuando digo que es el mejor juego que he jugado. Adelantado a su época y hecho un cariño increíble, este juego es el futuro de los rpg.
-
Aug 10, 2023A landmark in the RPG and industry as a whole. This game sets new high and even if you don't like the turn based combat, do yourself a favour and play it. A complete product void of Microtransaction, excellent performance, virtually bugless. Stör is excellent, char are excellent and so is the music,voice, animation. One of the best if not the best game ever made.

Aug 10, 2023Tudo que precisávamos para voltar com RPG decente, atualmente está em grande falta de jogos assim.
-
Aug 10, 2023Sou um enorme fã de RPG e honestamente esse é o melhor RPG que eu já joguei na vida, o fato dele emular d&d de forma tão perfeita chega a me emocionar e me dar uma nostalgia braba, pra melhorar eles melhoraram muito os sistemas de algumas coisas que não funcionavam no tabletop, tá gostoso demais jogar esse jogo e acredito que vá seguir assim sempre, recomendo mt
-
Aug 10, 2023It doesn't feel like a sequel to Baldur's Gate, but that being said, it is still a great game. Combat can be hard, but you need to think through your actions, which I am sure a lot of people don't like. Sometimes they aren't too forward with actions and bonus actions. But I do really enjoy the game
-
Aug 10, 2023Played the Devs other games and wow this is amazing to play something like Divinity in the DnD world, Love it so much and beat TOTK for me as my current game of the year.
-
Aug 10, 2023This game is just insane!! Great quality game, music, visual everything! This game got me hooked! Really emjoy every minutes of it! Pay once you get the full game no **** battle pass or cosmetics at 15$ a skin. THIS IS GAME OF THE YEAR FOR SURE ❤️ big love to larian studios for making such a great game really worth the money!!
-
Aug 10, 2023What if Deus Ex and Divinity Original Sin 2 had a kid? You would get Baldur's Gate 3. One of the biggest masterpieces in the CRPG genre. Congrats, Larian!
-
Aug 10, 2023Imagine as a Game Producer you would Roll a d20 for maling the Game of the Decade and you get a 20 critical success. I think this would described the Game in the best way.
-
Aug 10, 2023that's amazing what this devs have made on this game, love it. amazing.
Larian do it again, just buy it, play it, lose your life in it. -
Aug 10, 2023Best game 2023 for sure, when choices actually matter from start to the end
-
Aug 10, 2023The absolute cherry of the Baldurs Gate series comes in 20 years after I played the first one, and I was not disappointed. The best CRPG experience I've ever had. Story telling, immersion, free choice and finally a game that respects and rewards you playing it your way. Game of the year no doubt.
-
Aug 10, 2023wow...so some companies DO still care about gamers and the art of games instead of being evil, greedy predators. A masterpiece!
-
Aug 10, 2023Absolute must play for rpg fans! Perfect adaptation of dnd with a compelling story and well thought out environments.

Aug 10, 2023Incredible experience. Zero micro-transactions. Amazing story. Not perfect. But close enough to still get a 10/10 from me. The first CRPG to reach over 800,000 players on Steam.
Really glad for the whole team. For the first time in years I'm not so doomer about gaming. We might have a chance. -
Aug 10, 2023This game is the result of massive efforts of people who love what they create. It's creative, very versatile and full of well designed stories and dialogues and allows you as a player to experience it on the way you want. Never experienced THAT level of possibilities, not even in games like Planescape Torment. I will play it at least a second time even if it takes hundreds of hours to finish it.
-
Aug 10, 2023The GOAT and, in general, just perfect. The game I'll return to many times because its plot's variability is on another level.
-
Aug 10, 2023They upgraded my most beloved game (Divinity: Original Sin 2) into a more polished game with updated graphics, DnD Setting and glorious cut-scenes. Love it. Instant master piece.
-
Aug 10, 2023This is one of the best games of all time, for sure. It is really impressive!
-
Aug 10, 2023This is my first time getting in to a DND game and im absolutely in LOVE with it. I love how much detail has been put in to the interactions and how alive the world feels. You truly do shape it based on your decisions.

Mar 25, 2024With 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.
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 22, 2024Larian 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]
-
Dec 7, 2023Baldur’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.
