Sep 10, 2023Great immersive story, attention to detail, voice acting and characters, decent combat. Overall a great game.
-
Sep 8, 2023Great RPG to play with friends, totally can recommend it! I love the D&D implementation in this game, it's easy to learn but gives challenges, and each fight is like a puzzle that you have to solve.

Sep 8, 2023This is a terrific game you dudes. A true adaptation of DND with great performance.
-
Sep 8, 2023Best epic rpg game for ever literally. i wasn't a fan of d&d games but Baldur's Gate 3 tied me up screen.
-
Sep 8, 2023Amazing game, so much choice, there are options in the game that I did not even think to choose let alone choose another path.
-
Sep 8, 2023An epic hard to duplicate. It's goodness is far beyond our expression. There's one thing I could say: The true and full beauty of the game is inside itself and the only way to get it is to experience it by yourself. That's my best review I can say for a game.

Sep 9, 2023Juego increíble. La historia es una de las mejores que yo recuerde. Una pena que no esté en todas las plataformas.
-
Sep 9, 2023Tiene que ser increíble poder jugar a este juegazo. Solo me llegaba para una Series S y no por ello voy a criticar la grandiosidad de este juegazo. Aburrido de las pantallas de carga al atravesar cada puerta y de las cinemáticas entre cambios de planeta de Starfield.
-
Sep 8, 2023absolute banger of a game, might need some polishing at the end, but still goty 2023
-
Sep 8, 2023Definitely game of the year.
The game has an incredible level of involvement and replayability, the gameplay does not get boring even after 100 hours of continuous play. -
Sep 8, 2023The new standard for RPGS. I am over 100 hours in and haven't finished the game. I could write a novel on why this game is amazing, but I do not need to.
-
Sep 8, 2023this game is absolutely fantastic, one of the most entertaining game of all time
-
Sep 8, 2023Goty,It was awesome, I'm still excited 70 hours later,Graphics, sound, gameplay, everything is great, congratulations must be given to the studio that made the game
-
Sep 8, 2023One of the best gaming experiences I have ever had.
Seriously, play this game. -
Sep 8, 2023Perfect game, full of activities, choices and a vast fantasy world. The turn-based fights are quite strategic, in fact they are hard but also fun. Each choice changes the plot, so we can start more runs always different. Such a beautiful fantasy hasn't been released in a long time...

Sep 8, 2023Perfection. Thank you Larian Studios for delivering a game full of passion and love for the world of videogames, role play games, dungeons&dragons and the original legendary Baldur's Gate series. This game is everything it should have been, and even more. A couple of bug in the storyline but so far best game 2023.

Sep 8, 2023Huge fan of fantasy RPG's and Larian knocked it outta the park. I have played thru Act 1 in EA and now w/ 3 classes on full release and man, no playthrough is the same. Choices have so many unexpected consequences and the character development is phenom. Graphics are gorgeous running on Ultra on an NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti
-
Sep 8, 2023Probably the best thing I have ever played. We need more studios like Larian.
-
Sep 8, 2023Cant say anything new, that was not said by guys before me here. Just unexpectedly amazing game, it has its few flaws but its sooooo gooood that all the flaws are erased from my mind instantly.
-
Sep 8, 2023The single best adaptation of a TTRPG into a video game. Storytelling is amazing, characters are amazing, depth is insane. I have not seen or had any two play throughs that were the same. Player freedom at the highest regard. Mods are the cherry on top.

Sep 8, 2023Superbe RPG parfaitement realisé, sans bug avec un graphisme a la hauteur et des dialogues de haut vol. Digne successeur des Baldur's Gate précédent. Je ne regrette qu'une chose c'est la disparition des pipelines d'actions des précédents BG et l'IA paramétrable des PNJs suiveurs, mais a part cela l'âme des Baldur's Gate est bien là, bravo Larian
-
Sep 8, 2023Baldur's Gate 3 is not a perfect game, but it is an inspired masterpiece and love letter to lovers of the RPG genre and D&D in particular. It has some of the most interesting writing i've ever seen in a video game and the voice acting is among the best I've ever seen in a video game. I've already recommended this game to anyone who will listen.
-

-
Sep 8, 2023Amazing game! ALL negative reviews are disgusting Starfield and Zelda fanboys who don't even own BG3, trying their hardest to review-bomb the clear GOTY, so their games can stand a chance. Ignore them, they are toxic sore losers.
-
Sep 8, 2023The game is one of the best games I have ever played. The story, characters, and world is very immersive. It is turn based crpg so that may detract from your enjoyment if you do not like those sorts of games. It is one of those once every 10 years sort of games that push the envelope of what is possible in gaming well done! Oh and best of all no micro transactions and amazing dev. team that cares.
-
Sep 8, 2023No suelo comprar juegos apenas salen, ni tampoco triples A, pero este juego me encanto desde el inicio y no pude esperar ni 1 segundo para comprarlo, Desde el storytelling hasta el gameplay, las posibilidades son infinitas y su rejugabilidad es garantizada, el mejor juego del 2023, y de los mejores juegos del siglo.

Sep 8, 2023The most perfect open world, trpg game, ever. I have played this game for 20 hours long but not even finished first chapter. Masterpiece.
-

-
Sep 9, 2023the game masterfully delivered everything it promised and much more. without a doubt the best game of the year and one of the best in history.
-
Sep 9, 2023The consistency of the story, dialogues and the weight of the choices you make is just perfect.
Didn't has as much fun and playing as much as I did in a **** long time.
Also broke my heart a few times. Really worth every penny. -
Sep 9, 2023Amazing game that shames publishers that force developers to put out rushed **** games
-
Sep 9, 2023Amazing adventure in a fantastic fantasy world. Chararchers are very creative and well-written, as is the whole plot.
-
Sep 9, 2023This is the only game I will ever rate 10/10. Early access already made it out to be a masterpiece, but with the additions of full release it's even better than before.
-

Sep 9, 2023This game is just amazing, there is soo much to do and so much to miss. The intricate stories that every character has, all the side quests you're able to do. So much re playability this game has to offer.
-
Sep 9, 2023I love how most of the negative reviews here are from people who wanted BG2 in a 3D engine. Crying over how this isn't identical to a 23-year-old game. It's sad, honestly. The game is a masterpiece, and one of the best games to come out in decades.
-
Sep 9, 2023An extraordinary game with abysmal depth and truly breathtaking graphics.
80 hours already and I can't get enough of it, having loved the first two installments back in the day!
Gripping story, touching ally characters, dynamic turn-based gameplay!
Simply the Goty 2023 for me! Huge thanks to Larian Studio! -
Sep 9, 2023Simple.
It's DND. But a videogame.
Almost anything you think you can do, you can. The game reacts to it. Very good game. Super fun.
Wish they would add in encounter creator so this could be used for Online DND. -
Sep 9, 2023A masterpiece, with an insane replayability, few bugs and a good story. A must try
-
Sep 9, 2023the best Role playing experience i've ever had. I'm 110 hours in and still haven't done everthing because i kinda WANT to explore everything. There are no fillers. Just Quality!
-
Sep 9, 2023
-
Sep 9, 2023I bought the game in early access und never touched it until the full release. For me the absolut best game I ever played. Thx Larian.
-
Sep 9, 2023One word is all this game represents and it is EXCELLENCY!
This game do not punish you if you do your own thing, rather it wants you to be you. Do your crazy and dumb stuff and it still rewards you. insane! -
Sep 9, 2023De lo mejor que he jugado, es increíble la cantidad de decisiones que puedes tomar y la cantidad de partidas diferentes que puedes tener. El sistema de combate me ha gustado mucho y la historia me ha encantado, para mí un 10.
-
Sep 9, 2023El juego tiene un mundo abierto lleno de vida y detalles. Los personajes son carismáticos y bien desarrollados, y la historia es emocionante y atrapante. El combate es desafiante y estratégico, y las opciones de personalización son casi infinitas.
Baldur's Gate 3 es un juego imprescindible para los fans del género de rol. Es un título que te mantendrá entretenido durante horas y horas. -

Sep 9, 2023As a DnD Lover I'm satisfied with Baldur's Gate 3, in fact my friend and I were looking forward to BG3 when we played BG:DIA about two years ago. And besides, do you know how excited I was when I saw Jaheira and Minsc (and Boo) once again?

Sep 10, 2023Bought this for Mac one Early access, played it on Windows (since it’s not fully released on Mac yet and then bought it for PS5. My fave RPG of all time. If this doesn’t win GOTY, I’d be surprised.

Sep 10, 2023Nothing short of a masterpiece. Deep, interesting story arcs, meaningful companions, and brilliantly animated throughout. At time of review I've put over 120 hours into the game and I know there's still hundreds of things to do that I skipped past first time.
-
Sep 10, 2023Thats probably the best game in the last 10 years. Better than any nintendo BS, deal with it my brother in Christ.

Sep 10, 2023Se perdurará como referência, tanto em games, filmes, series e animações.
-
Sep 10, 2023It is the masterpiece that we have all been waiting years for. NO micro-transactions. NO "live services". Just a masterpiece of a game that every RPG player deserves.
-
Sep 10, 2023In fact, I am very grateful to the developers for such a wonderful game. I literally sat and rejoiced at how cool everything was here. what can I say if I signed up for metacritic just to write a good review
-
Sep 10, 2023This quickly became my favorite game of all time, it has great story, exploration, combat and dialogue. It is not a flawless game but its virtues more than compensate for its few shortcomings.
-
Sep 11, 2023Definitely not flawless, but it's not my condition to give 10. It's rather how the game made me feel and damn, this game is good. Didn't have that much fun playing in a long, long time
-
Sep 10, 2023Hilarious, exciting, incredible gameplay/story/music! Best Rpg in a long time!
-
Sep 10, 2023Um dos melhores jogos de RPG de todos os tempos!! Puro D&D traduzido para um videogame
-
Sep 10, 2023El mejor juego de rol de este año, en verdad me sumergí en la historia más de una vez y he jugado repetitivamente con los diferentes personajes que ofrece el juego, sin duda al momento de estar inmersivo en la historia las horas se me van volando
-
Sep 10, 2023Best rpg game I've played in years! So much stuff to do. I'm now on my 3th playthrough and still finding stuff I haven't done.
-
Sep 10, 2023I haxe been playing BG3 for 2 years when it was in early access and now I am able to play the full game. BG3 is the best I have seen in a video game that come really close to a Table Top RPG. The story line are great and the is so many this you can do and many paths you can take with this game.
-
Sep 10, 2023Semplicemente quasi perfetto. Manca solo la possibilità di esplorare il mondo liberamente dall inizio.
-
Sep 11, 2023For real role-playing games it is a really good title and deserves a 10 out of 10.
Especially when you play Dungeons and Dragons you immediately feel comfortable and can enjoy the adventure.
As an RPG beginner it might be a bit difficult, but then why should you get Baldur's Gate 3? -
Sep 11, 2023
-
Sep 11, 2023This game is just amazing, great story, characters, world and gameplay. Nothing hidden behind a pay wall or any micro transactions. This game represents every good in gaming, just go and buy it.
-
Sep 11, 2023Im usually not a fan of turn based RPGs, but this is some next level experience. Absolutely fascinating, one of the best things I have played in the last few years. 200h~ for the first play-through and I still haven't seen it all.

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.
