    Um dos melhores jogos já feitos de todos os tempos. Detalhes e carinho por parte da desenvolvedora, que valorizam os gamers. Campanhas que duram horas e horas; cantinhos a serem explorados; mundo vivo; combate estratégico e divertido; historia engajante... enfim, tudo que um ótimo RPG deve ter e um bom jogo no geral, deveria ter. Maravilhoso!

    For people who is in love with this type of games there is no excuse to not buy it, especially from guys like Larian. If you are never played something like this before, feel free to start from this one or from its little brother(Divinity Original Sin 2).

    Even though game is not quite polished yet, its still worth of trying out. Words cannot describe how good this game truly is.

    Even though game is not quite polished yet, its still worth of trying out. Words cannot describe how good this game truly is. Imagine Elden Ring but with 10 times more replay-ability and variety of gaming experience.

    Anybody who's saying that its boring probably just boring by them selves because the game is giving you too many options how to go through it, and some of them you wouldn't even consider of. It doesn't requires you to know the rules of D&d or anything like it.

    Fantastic game from a great developer that sets out to achieve and even exceed the high expectations. Only some minor QOL flaws like group management, but all in all it is THE definitive game for all RPG and especially CRPG fans.

    It IS a Baldurs gate 3. It is unfortunate that it is released in the same year with Legend of Zelda. I want it to be the game of the year.

    Excellent evolution of the already great work done by Larian on previous RPGs. Scratches the D&D itch in a amazingly complex, rich story. Sets a new bar for RPGs. Many ways to solve a given problem with potentially different impacts on the results of the story. Voice acting is great, music is delicious. Battle is fun. Full of surprises and delights at every turn.

    It's just a fun game that is a value for the money. Don't remember the last time I used that sentence probably the last time Larian released a game. It's a masterpiece, buy it you won't regret it even if turn based RPGs aren't your thing.

    Easily the best RPG to date.
    Way better than the 2 original baldur's gate, and ANY OTHER RPG game, regarding its mechanics.
    Immersive, rewarding, with characters that make you care.
    It's like playing a DUNGEONS & DRAGONS alone, but you can play with 3 more friends too!

    Really great story telling and RP system.
    I never played D&D and still am enjoining a lot the experience.
    No words to describe the amount of details this game offers… 25 hours so far, and every time I end up bumping with an unexpected surprise (in a good way)

    Baldur's Gate is a masterpiece, the turn-based combat system may not please those who don't like the genre, since The Witcher 3 I haven't felt so immersed in a game.

    For a person who has always wanted to play DND but couldn't because of various reasons, one being lack of partners to play with, it feels great to have a game that mixes a lot of the DND elements and sets it in such an immersive way.

    Compared to other cRPGs released these last few years, it does everything better.
    Good graphics, atmospheric music, a long storyline with plenty of plot twists, well-developed companions with quality voice acting(some you love, some you hate, some you love to hate haha), and a near faithful rendition of DnD 5e rules to a computer gaming environment. 10/10

    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.
