    And yet again another outstanding work from Larian. Baldur's gate 3 remind me of the old days playing BG1 and 2. The story surprises you, makes you laugh and keeps you at the border of the chair.

    This game really has all for a CRPG type of game. The only downside is that the combat is way too slow-paced due to being turn-based. Would've want realtime with pause like the earlier BG games, at least as an option (kinda like how Arcanum works). Beside that, everything is really great. And the story is really awesome and funny too. It's like KOTOR and Dragon Age Origins on crack.

This game is a breath of fresh air and it’s nice to play a game at launch that is completely finished and not a broken buggy mess. Yes there are some issues with frame rates but nothing game breaking. And I’m very happy with the idea that this game has no microtransactions no payed dlc it’s a one time payment and you have hundreds of hours of content. The studio really should be proud of themselves for putting a lot of love and care into a game, one that is easily my contender for game of the year! This is a perfect game for sure Expand

My first playthrough was about 100 hours and I didn't even do every sidequest I had so you definitely get your money's worth. Expand

    When I start playing Baldur’s Gate I was immediately hooked. The story and the world is so exciting. You want to explore everything and every npc you meet has an interesting story to tell.

And that was an action based game. I tried playing turn based games before but I never had the patience for this type of games. But for Baldur’s Gate 3 the combat is exciting and when a fight is over I have this feeling of accomplishment. I am happy I did try playing this game. Also the replayability is the best. No future game will be the same with all the different classes and dialogue options you can choose from. For me this will be a game that I can play in many years to come and never be bored of it! Therefore 10/10! Expand

    Most in depth game I have ever played. I love CRPG's and RPG's in general and this is a game clearly made by people who will also play the game. Complete game on Launch with nothing you have to buy to get the full experience was a huge plus. I would highly recommend this game even to people who have never played this genre before as the tutorial is very useful in learning the systems.

    I was never interested in isometric or top down RPGs, I never played DnD in my life.
    I actually always despised that camera angle.
    And I love this game (especially we can zoom in like in a 3rd person game).
    The possibilities the game give you are insane. The game is super detailed and well thought through

    This is without a doubt the best RPG I have ever played. Just wow. Everything about it is just perfect. The story is really thrilling and grasps you. Every companion is super well written and has something interesting to them. Also the lack of bugs and the complete non existence of micro transactions makes this a unicorn in the current game market. This might just be my favorite game of all time.

    I hope I can see more AA-AAA studios take their example and make games for the love of the game and not as a means to extort money from consumers. Larian just showed/reminded them how its done with an awesome non-predatory game that is achieving major success on all fronts.

    This game has made me realize that I need to give isometric and/or turn based combat video games a chance. Also, it's been quite a few years since I've had to debate whether or not I'm going to call in sick to work just so I can keep playing a video game. This game is easily in my top 5 all time and something I will most likely end up putting 400+ hours into. 105 hours so far and counting.This game has made me realize that I need to give isometric and/or turn based combat video games a chance.

    I bought this game to support fellow gamers and developers, even though it wasn't my usual type. After just a few hours, I was hooked. I even left a game I'd played for over a year. Now, it's my new gaming benchmark alongside MHW/IB, RDR2, BoTW, and FFXIV. What a find – this game has truly raised the bar for me!

    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.
