    This game is a unique experience and must play! It keeps surprising me with stuff and places and dialogues!

    Honestly one of the worst games I have ever played, and I don't even care that it is an Original Sin 2 clone and has nothing in common with Baldur's Gate. The game is very depraved, the dialogue is Reddit tier awful, and the combat is boring and slow. Never again.

    Best CRPG of all time. DOS2 was a great stepping stone so that Larian could reach new heights with Baldur's Gate 3.

    I've been playing now since launch (and around 20 odd hrs in EA). All I can say is they have delivered!! It's epic and could be (if it continues as it has begun) the best game I have ever played!

    The best crpg ever made!! I do not understand why there are negative feedback complaining about the game when it is her fault for not informing yourself before buying it.

    Be prepared to go missing for months if not years the sheer amount of content this game has staggering , from nearly 17000 endings to different gameplay elements . Baldur gate 3 is a great game

    This is a great game to lose yourself in for hours. Is it perfect, no. It has some bugs, it has some issues, but if you love D&D and CRPGs, it is well worth the price tag.

    The game may not deserve 10, but I had to throw one point in order to at least somehow balance the "special" young people who put 0.

    A table rpg translated into the virtual world.

    The immersion and story is the highlight of the game, apart from the fantastic armor and weapons.

    Only spent a tens of hours on it, but wow this is insane. Si Many possibilities, so many times where the game truly blew my mind letting me saying « really this can happen ? »

    For sure the GOTY to me

    Really loving it. I've never been able to get into D&D before, but this game has done it. I'm hooked. And the conversations remind me of Mass Effect 2 with that very high level of care, delivering emotional moments like few games can.

    I've played many crpg, but I haven't seen this level yet. Everything is great in it: the combat system, which was taken over from dungeons and dragons, fascinating and exciting plot, interesting companions with unusual storylines. Larian, you are the best!

    I love this game. I played early acces for 25 hours. And now i have already spend next to 50 hours in the first part. I am a good boy in rl so i love stealing and doing bad things in BG3. The narrative is awsome. Malady's voice from Divnity 2 makes me feel warm and at home in this game. Larian i love you for making this game. Goed gedaaaan

    Incredible amount of quality packed content within a normal full priced game, that just loves to please the crowd. Everythings screams passion. Everything screams masterpiece, you dont need to like the combat, but you have to aknowledge its depth. Just amazing.

    Its a fine game but the only thing in common with Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 is the name. They should have called it Divinity: Forgotten Realms and even then it's feels more like a Michael Bay movie than a DnD campaign.

    I could go on and on about what makes it not a BG games but its painfully obvious to anyone who played the first two games and their expansion packs. If you want an over

    I could go on and on about what makes it not a BG games but its painfully obvious to anyone who played the first two games and their expansion packs.

    If you want an over the top DnD campaign which feels more Planescape than Forgotten Realms this is the game for you.

    Simplesmente uma obra prima dos jogos, estou ainda no arco 1, mas o que esse jogo já me mostrou prova o quão bom ele é. Larian sabe como trabalhar e tambem ama seu trabalho, isso faz toda a diferença.

    I actually not into that type of Turn based games.
    It's definitely Game of the Year 2023 - Story / Voice acting / World / Mechanics / Possibilities

    You have to test it. It's worth each Penny

    No I don't want yet another pointless launcher, I don't want an account with you, and I don't want you harvesting my data without permission with the default being set to "yes" for telemetry.

    Just the game I paid for thanks. Nothing else. Ever.

    My favorite, and no doubt surely one of the greatest video games of all time.

    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.
