    Baldur's Gate 3 is one of those games that manages to get close to the great CRPGs of yesteryear like Arcanum, Dragon Age: Origins and obviously Baldur's Gate 1 and 2. Its story is interesting, its graphics are pretty good, it's playable in co-op and it's narratively faithful enough to its predecessors to think it deserves every hour of gameplay. It could definitely be my GOTY this year.

I'm talking very minor, like your character is angled a little wrong in a cutscenes so they clip through a pod they're supposed to be in for the 2 seconds before the pod opens. Gameplay is fun and polished, if you like D&D you should give this game a shot.… Expand

    This is without a doubt one of the best games that I have ever played. There is so much content to go through in this game that you could likely do 4 to 5 plays through it and still find new things to do.

    The combat is turn based, which is polarizing to some people, however it is the quintessential Dungeons and Dragons experience put into a video game. Larian Studios could not have done better with the mechanics of the game, as they are literally a video game version of the most popular tabletop game ever made. The turn based combat is among the best of any turn based game that I have ever played. The environments that the combat takes place in are also very diverse and well crafted with a very good usage of vertical space that many turn based games leave out.

    The attention to detail in this game is incredible, with in game books all having different looks and shapes to them, even though it would have not mattered to lost players to have them all be the same. The story is extremely engaging, and your choices throughout the game make an incredible impact on events that take place. Your choices, or even lack thereof, can make the difference between many things that can have quite considerable impacts on your gameplay.    … Expand

    I was never interested in isometric or top down RPGs, I never played DnD in my life.
    I actually always despised that camera angle.
    And I love this game (especially we can zoom in like in a 3rd person game).
    The possibilities the game give you are insane. The game is super detailed and well thought through

The only thing that really frustrated me in the game is the inventary system... Larian really needs to come up with something better than what they current have.
    But don't be afraid to give it a shot, it is time well spend!    … Expand

    The game is an improvement on DOS2 (which was excellent). It feels like D&D on the computer. Biggest thing that is lacking is more body types for the character creation.

    Somehow Larian has topped DOS2....which I thought would be impossible.

    A special game, more like 9.5 due to some bugs, but 10 is close enough.

    The only people giving this a 0 are people who literally want this to be like Diablo 4.

    This is a 10/10 game.

    Also not sure why some people are saying this is an amazing game and then giving it a 0 rating.

Some quick points and bug experience report:

    1. Very well-optimized. 4K60 (which I fixed), max settings and the game doesn't even blink (Nvidia RTX4080 graphics card, i9 13900KF CPU, SSD). Doesn't even come close to maxing out GPU use.
    2. 1.0 is surprisingly bug-free.
    3. Lots of interactable NPCs and other content added in Act I
    4. Story, character development, and writing, are all superb, all blowing away even previous Larian titles.
    5. I find toggling between multiple choice wheels when using controller to be immersion breaking. I'm very much convinced that this game is best played with keyboard.
    6. Nothing more than minor bugs and inconveniences. The biggest one I observed is that I think the economy may be a little broken (to the player's advantage). I made a couple of purchases that I don't think I was properly charged gold for, or, at least, the right amount of gold. Also, a minor inconvenience at the launcher. The launcher defaults to DX11, forcing one to remember to change the setting to Vulkan (the more sophisticated graphics API option) each time, at launch.    … Expand

    An absolute masterpiece for fans of the genre and a sign that there's still hope for modern games.

    I only hope there won't be too much negativity due to people writing unnecessary reviews cause they're not used to CRPG's as already quite a few exist here ;P

    An absolute masterpiece. I played the original Baldur’s Gate game when it was released, then it’s sequel, and now more than 20 years later, BG3! It exceeds all my expectations. A classic that will stand next to Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous.

    20 hours in, this is easily my GOTY already.

    I noped out of EA about 1 hour in as I knew it would be my jam...but this, this is just next level.
    Characters, writing, combat, world building and adventure....everything I wanted for my 22 year wait.

    10/10.

    After 6 hours of gaming Baldur's gate 3 after launch I actually shed a tear because I was so happy about how good the game is. I thought I would hate turn based combat vs. real time with pause, but it really is fine, although a bit tough to get the hang of.
    I highly recommend this game.

    Unreal quality. I've spent 35h in early access and was worried I'd get bored before I redo this part - nope, just blasted through it in 25 hours... again. It's unreal how full of quality content this game is. Might be my game of the decade.

    I never thought that a game this "calm and slow" when it comes to pacing of action might become one of my all time favorites.

    Joguem, deem uma chance, ou esperem uma promoção, mas pra mim hoje esse jogo por R$ 200,00 vale cada centavo, melhor que muito jogo aí de R$ 350,00 com microtransações dentro do jogo (quem conhece tá ligado).    … Expand

    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.
