    Fantastic game, I have been hooked right from the start, the well designed maps aren't extremely massive and packed enough to ensure throughout the journey there is never a moment of running around without something exciting happening. For those that don't like turn-based games this may not be them, but it should be a reason for many of the low scores on here.

    A beautiful story told with so many permutations it's mind boggling. The voice acting is top notch, down to even the most random NPC (and there are so many of them). One of the most notable games in a decade or more.

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.

You can do a lot to alter how the game ultimately ends even if there is a path laid out before you, much like playing through one of the many d&d book adventures. Mechanically there are differences between this game and the tabletop game but mostly in the form of removing small nuanced rules to make it a bit more accessible for a wider audience. However this means some builds can be pretty wild, because those restrictions exist in the tabletop game for balance reasons. But even so the scale of the game and the enemies, especially on tactician, make it a worthwhile ride whether you're hyper optimized or not. I'll be playing this for many years to come.… Expand

    Very good game, it's among the best games I've ever played. It's the first game of this style that I've played. The story is very good and well told. Acts 1 and 2 are perfect, act 3 would need to be better worked on (both in the technical part and in the story part), but nothing that ruins the game experience.

I clocked at 125 h in my first "good aligned" playthrough and just started another one with a more "evil aligned" role-playing and I'm 24 h into the second playthrough and it's already vastly different story-wise and gameplay wise since I'm playing another race+class and I'm using different companions. Dialogue options are different, companion interactions are different, questlines went a totally different direction, basically I'm playing the same general story but the road to its end is 70-80% different and hopefully the ending will be different.
    100% recommend trying this game out!

    Game of the decade , even if you don't like the crpg or the turn based genre it will still deliver one of the best experiences in video games

    Demasiado contenido y sin desperdicio. Las misiones secundarias para nada parecen relleno y congenian muy bien con la linea argumental. Practicamente el juego es un 10/10, a pesar de algun bug menor, que muchos fueron fixeados pocos dias despues del lanzamiento.

    El mejor rpg de la ultima decada como minimo, impresionante en historia, opciones de dialogo, posibilidades en combate, personajes, musica y el apartado artistico es increible. Me gusta un monton el Divinity: Original Sin II y el Baldur's Gate 3 es aun mejor.

    Uno de los mejores juegos que he jugado en los últimos años, banda sonora de 10, gráficos muy buenos, doblaje de 10, personajes entrañables incluso los que no son jugables, historia de 10.
    Un juego con muchas posibilidades muy variaras y dan ganas de iniciar otra run para ver que pasa es increíble lo que hicieron.

    500h in and i still want more

    The amount of ways you can approach quests and combats, the amount of freedom of choice and reaction by the game and is incredible. Larian accounted for people to sneak, steal, move objects, etc and have NPCs reacting to that.

    So many hours of cinematic perfection through mo-cap and just great writing overall

    RPG of the Decade....Graphics, Music, Story, Gameplay...it's all Top Notch.
    But it's not for everyone... Action Focused Players will not love this turn-based-combat.

    For me it is Larian's Masterpiece and i hope there is more to come from this developer...

    easily the best game to come out in years. no play through has to be the same. can easily be played through over 5 times due to how many choices actually effect the story. the only argument ive seen that is more of an opinion, is that some people wont like the turn-based combat. a lot of the bad reviews i've seen are just toxic people coming over from the star field reviews

Throughout my first and second playthrough much of my time was spent thinking about things to do next time -theres that much to do !. You can test your combat skills, slay your foes, discover secrets, cry, or fall in love (either with a character that puts real people to shame or with the baeuty of Faerun). This is a must play just like elden ring or minecraft or read dead redemtion. Even if it's not your genre, this demands your attention.… Expand

    Absolute masterpiece, Act 3 drops off slightly in quality of story and performance, but everything that precedes it and the amazing gameplay more than makes you forgive the devs.

    There's still potential for improvement which is crazy considering the groundbreaking game Larian Studios built here, please give me the farm epilogue Sven, I beg you.

Para quem curte mais conhecer a história do jogo com uma facilidade boa, o modo "Explorador" te oferece essa experiência perfeitamente. E para quem curte um desafio maior, o modo "Estrategista" atende perfeitamente (desde que você jogue sincero sem usar "metagame"). E o modo "Balanceado" lhe oferece um equilíbrio perfeito, não fica tão fácil nem tão difícil. A trilha sonora do jogo está magnífica, desde as músicas, quanto aos efeitos sonoros e som ambiente. O jogo está lindo, os datalhes dos personagens não deixa nada a desejar, e a personalização do seu personagem é magnifica, traços raciais muito bem feitos e uma boa variedade de tudo para personalizar do seu jeitinho. Mas o melhor de tudo, é a personalidade de cada personagem do jogo, simplesmente estou apaixonado por personagens fictícios, meu coração está dividido entra a Umbralma e a Karlach. E de início não gostava muito da Lae'zel, mas com o andar da carroagem e de suas escolhas, você percebe que naquela mulher sapo rude e autoritária ainda tem uma mulher meiga e carinhosa do seu próprio jeito. Ainda não tive a oportunidade de conhecer a personalidade da Minthara, mas na próxima run com certeza deixarei ela viva para conhecer.    … Expand

    It is the best experience I had in games so far. Every time I launch the game, it gives me a lot of fun. Almost every session finishes with a story I want to tell my friends. Also, none of us had the same playthrough except for some little details. Also, I found there are so many things I missed in the first Act, so I'll definitely play again from the beginning.
    Best game purchase ever.

    In a moment like this, where there is a tendency in game and movie industry to exploit the good things done in the past and squeeze it out for commercial purposes only, playing on fans attachment to propose substandard products, one could have suspected that for this game too we would have had a similar risk.

    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.
