    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.

Characters are well developed, story is incredible so far (still going) and it just feels like the plot thickens at every turn.… Expand

    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.

    It did justice to the best game of all time which is, BG2. The only thing better than that is BG2. This is known.

    My first experience with the series began with the third part and I did not regret it, in the game I met a good story and rpg component (one of the best in the history of games), decent graphics, well and the most interesting thing that the game is perfectly implemented cooperative, you can enjoy the game playing with friends stack of 4 people and the game is absolutely friendly to this.My first experience with the series began with the third part and I did not regret it, in the game I met a good story and rpg component (one of the best in the history of games), decent graphics, well and the most interesting thing that the game is perfectly implemented cooperative, you can enjoy the game playing with friends stack of 4 people and the game is absolutely friendly to this.

    Larian's best game so far, it has its issues like all games but the love and care of the game is evident throughout. Dont listen to the haters who have axes to grind, this is my favorite game in a very long time.

    Il re degli Rpg è tornato. Finalmente senza deludere le aspettative Larian Studios ha saputo far rinascere D&D sul PC. Senza dlc ne season pass, finalmente un Gioco con la G maiuscola.

    We play with wife on PS5 via split screen. Now we have a lot of new topics to talk together. And we wait for the end of the working day to quickly come home and start playing! The game is very diverse, interesting and beautiful! And we just want to say - many thanks to the developers! This is one of the best games we have ever played!

    The best RPG game to date and from now on probably the best game I have ever played. The world is so full of life that it is not possible not to get lost in it in the first 10 minutes of playing. Acting and voice acting is phenomenal! So is the overall story which is full of surprises and unknowns. It is so unique that I couldn't even guess where the game is going to go after ACT II.

    Fantastic game and a masterclass for gaming studios.
    I'm a huge fan of the BG series since the first opus 20+ years ago, this one brings back the thrill of the original ones and much more. Big congratz and thanks to Larian for this gem

    This SHOULD be the new standard for the bigger companies, we as customers deserve a win.

    I am giving BG3 a 10/10 because I've never had a game make me feel like a kid for a very long time, not since Skyrim. I tried BG3 at early access with no expectations whatsoever and it ended up being the best choice I had ever made.

On top of the content within the game - Larian studios makes its player-base feel like they are heard, they respond to critique and bugs and stay in constant communication with us. What a wonderful game and a wonderful company! Thank you for letting me feel like a kid again.… Expand

    Seit Release kann ich an nichts anderes mehr denken. Ich bin so tief in diese Welt gesunken, dass ich garnicht mehr raus will oder kann. Viele Spiele haben mein Herz erobert, aber dieses hat in wenigen spielstunden Platz 1 meiner Liste erreicht und dabei ein Spiel verdrängt, für das ich seit 7 Jahre Schwärme. Wo bleibt Onlyfangs?

    Hands down, the best cRPG to date. You will not find a game that has the same level of polish and quality permeating the gameplay the way Baldurs Gat 3 has it. This game is truly a masterpiece. Systems, story, roleplay, graphics, cutscenes, dialog, UI/UX, everything is a 10/10 and a piece of art!

    This game is brilliant! I love Faerun and not even one game has come close to portraying this world so well to me as the Baldur's Gate series. And you know what? BG3 is the best at doing it. The game is full of interesting characters, situations, and tactical battles, which makes me want to play more, and more. I am about 170h's into the game, and it's still my first playtrough.

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.

    There are some minor technical problems (many of which fixed already me), but they do not matter if take the whole game into account.    … Expand

    this is the game I dreamed about. the only minus for me is that fight are a bit too easy. but quests, adventure, spirit of DND it's all here. I'll say - when the game ended i was crying, i never had such emotions.

I appreciate how much choice you have in developing their stories as you progress. In terms of the main plot I think they did a good job from start to finish making it a memorable campaign. 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.

    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.
