    Lots of great content, (art, enemy variety, environments etc). but the combat is slow and boring

    incredible achievement in gaming. from content to quality, its the new bar in CRPGs and if jealous developers dont like it, then start making better games.

    Only thing I like about this game is that there's no store and pop ups trying too get you to spend more money. Otherthen that, it's not my type of game and feel it's overhyped

    Basically, as of today, the game needs 3 entirely different reviews...
    Act 1:
    Wow. The Scope. The depth! The characters, all the possibilities. The fun and fair (yet challenging) combat. The incredible attention to detail. This is probably one of the greatest games ever made! Act 2: Whee, still a fantastic game, but the bugs and glitches start to annoy. And couldn't they have come up

    Act 2:
    Whee, still a fantastic game, but the bugs and glitches start to annoy. And couldn't they have come up with *some* quality of life improvements in *3* years of Early Access? Fabulous characters, engaging story, still incredible depth, but quite a bit of tedium in between.
    Act 3:
    Crash, crash, crashedy-crash, crash-crash crashedy crash.
    The game falls apart in act 3, the story meanders and the memory leaks, glitches and constant CTDs almost kill the motivation to finish it.

    Well, maybe after the 2nd patch the game might actually become what most people basically *wish* it to be atm,

    I don't like the point and click system, I don't like the combat, I don't like the 3d from above. That all reminds me of games from the nineties. The art work is nice, but I get shivers from the voice over. It's not for me.

    Best pure RPG I've ever had the opportunity to play. It will definitely be a game that I will pass the 1000 hours quietly. The only downside is the graphics optimization, I hope they improve that.

    Absolutely incredible feat. Deserves all the hype and more, I have around 106 hrs currently with 25ish hrs being from early access. Please give this game your support, it is a miracle this game released in 2023. One of the best games ever. Full stop.

    One of the best games of our decate. The dedicated work shows and this should be a lesson for all the big gaming companies that are only revenew driven and where the budget omly shows for the marketing phase, but the games end up solulless shells.

Es una maravilla en todos sus sentidos, increíble la LIBERTAD que te deja para hacer de todo. La BSO es brutal. Es el mejor juego al que le he podido echar el guante es los últimos años. Y si hace que el resto de la industria se asuste y salga a hacer declaraciones... Por algo será. Mis 10 para Larion y Baldurs gate 3. Expand

    Não consigo parar de jogar, eu entro e falo: Vou jogar só uma hora, quando vejo passaram-se 3 horas e eu não percebi. A muito tempo um jogo não me prendia tanto, tudo é bom.. combate, história, exploração. É uma obra prima e demonstração de que é possível fazer algo PRIMOROSO ainda nos dias de hoje. Fica a dica concorrentes.

    I haven't been this excited about a game in a long time.
    So for me personally, this is definitely one of the best games in the last few years, and maybe more than a few.

    Jogo de excelente qualidade. Uma verdadeira obra de arte. Todos os amantes do RPG de mesa devem jogar Baldurs Gate 3, ao que não conhecem o RPG de mesa devo dizer que vale muito a pena conhecer toda a trama que envolve esse jogo maravilhoso. Baldurs gate vale a compra.

    The only thing better in Baldur's Gate 3 than in Divinity Original Sin 2 is the cinematic presentation, in everything else D:OS 2 is the better game. And there are literally hundreds of traps, in fact it can be summed up

    why would it have anything else than a 10? this game is exactly what every other games need to be , deep , free (in term of freedom), not predatory in term of money , the game is finished , there are no dlc , no micro transactions , its really what we needed as fan of video games , it gives us hope for a brighter future of video games that dont see us as floating dollar signs

    oui il n'est pas pour tout le monde , c'est du tour par tour et l'interface peut paraitre lourde au début; mais quel jeu , que de choix et de possibilité .
    Visuellement bon et très généreux en histoire et musique , une pépite à jouer

    Masterpiece. I love this game.

    Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the best games I have ever play. Dos2 and BG3 are the best rpg you can play.

    Stunning to see such a gem of a game in 2023. I loved playing in Early Access, but the full launch has taken the game to a new level - for me this is the greatest game ever made by a long shot.

    It's better than almost every single game ever made and it probably will stay that way for a while. The attention to detail during making this game was so big you can complete the game 12 times and can get new cutscenes every single time. Game is amazing but there's a lot of bugs. The amount of bugs is so big that the rating has to suffer by at least 1 point if not more.

    Muito bom, que continuem fazendo jogos nesse nível. Fazia tempo que não lançavam um jogo de RPG nesse nível e usando regras de D&D.

    This is a great game, I would give it an 8 or 9 because Pathfinder Kingmake and Pathfinder Wrath of Righteous are way better than it, but I'll give it a 10 just to save it from the haters who are coming in to give this game a 0 unfairly to lower it the note only because they are jealous of his success and that is absurd.

    Este e um otimo game, eu daria 8 ou 9 para ele pois Pathfinder

    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.
