    Easily one of the best games that I have ever played in the last 30 odd years.
    No Microtransactions... No Performance Issues... No DLC... Perfect in every way!

    Just finished the game today and it's phenomenal. If you like old school turn-based RPGs or like D&D you'll like this game. There is a ton of detail and Larian allows you to tackle situations in a multitude of ways. The story is fairly good and varies based off of player choice. Companions are well flushed out, albeit some can be frustrating at first. Only criticism would be that someJust finished the game today and it's phenomenal.

Only criticism would be that some companions are too willing to have romantic relationships with the player character with little effort. Overall this is one of the best games i've played in a long time. Larian's philosophy of releasing a full game with no paid DLC/microtransactions is a breath of fresh air.… Expand

    Pretty much everything Baldur's Gate and Dungeons fans Dragons fans have been hoping for years. Maybe a little heavy on the romance, buy you can always toggle off what you don't want. Looking forward to a DLC or whatever Larian has in store next.

    Excellent game. It has been a lot of fun to play, and I feel like a huge void in video gaming has been filled.
    The only improvements I think the game can even make is just in the polish category. Some camera work, UI features, and what everyone wants from every great game... More of it.

    By far the best true RPG from this era, on the shoulders of giants, BG3, with its amazing voice actors, caption, history complexity, full of meaningfull choices that really change the game,... we have nothing like it in the game industry. Note, I usually don't like turn based games, but this one is different, it's unique.

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

    Baldurs Gate 3 is the best game I have ever played in my life.
    400 hours on PC Steam, all achievements and now I just bought the PS 5 version and I'm going for the platinum trophy.
    Thank you Larian Studios for this wonderful game !

    I was very sceptical of this game. Baldurs Gate 1 and 2 are easily one of my favourite RPGs, so my expectations were very high....
    This is an RPG how an RPG should be. I am still baffled how many options you have to progress, the fighting system is good. So far I have nearly no complaints.

    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.
