    I had very high expectations for this game and Larian managed to exceed them by so much, I can't believe it. Thank you for making such a good game! :)

    Best RPG I've ever played. Finally a game without microtransactions, but still making a sh** load of money. How is it possible?! Excellent work Larian Studios!

    A new standard for AAA gaming. We love our indies and would never expect them to put out this caliber of a game, but big companies (EA, Blizzard, Ubisoft, ect) are terrified of how beloved this game is. So much effort was put into it and WITHOUT ANY MICROTRANSACTIONS OR LOOTBOXES! That's the reason Blizzard is hemming and hawing about this game.

    This game is simply amazing, played it a lot in early access, reminds me of the old days, looks great, plays really well, is fun in coop. Its feature complete, its not a 90 Dollar game with micro transactions. Its simply deserving every positivity and hype it gets.

    This is a very good game. There are many options for the development of events. Perhaps even too much :-) The game is beautiful, the characters are interesting, the locations are good. Flaws? Well, the D&D role-playing system limits the imagination of the game authors :-)

    Never thought i would like a turn-based CRPG game... until i encountered and played BG3. This is it! Thanks Larian for introducing me to such a great game... it's the best that has come to fruition!
    Hurrah! Hurrah!

    This is my first Baldur's Gate game. I also did not like DnD growing up. I tried once in high school and got frustrated in the first room not knowing what I was supposed to do and never tried again. I saw the bear scene on Tik Tok and had to get this game. I'm obsessed. I'm over 100 hours in with two characters and neither is even remotely close to beating it. There is just so muchThis is my first Baldur's Gate game. I also did not like DnD growing up.

I'm over 100 hours in with two characters and neither is even remotely close to beating it. There is just so much to do, so many options, so many ways the story could unfold, so many amazing characters and beautiful sets. It doesn't feel repetitive even when I'm doing the exact same quest again because I'm doing it a different way. After the massive disappointment of Diablo 4 I definitely needed this.… Expand

    Amazing game with outstanding story, almost any interaction has the same level of care and attention, not a single game in this industry has surprised me as much as this one.

    No micro-transactions or additional content to give you more to explore, everything is in it for the affordable price of the main game.

    48 hours in and still in act 1. The game is nothing but a breath of fresh air in the RPG genre.
    So many options all over the place. Character creation, classes, subclasses, races...
    Then the world building , the characters and their stories, the multiple ways you can complete quests or enter areas... so much work and love put in this game from Larian... A game company from gamers for    48 hours in and still in act 1. The game is nothing but a breath of fresh air in the RPG genre.

    Everything you could want from a fully finished game. These 0/10 haters are obnoxious I think there should be a way to link to Steam to prove you own it to be able to rate.

    140 hours in, I love the game! Very nostalgic, having grown up playing DnD. I played through BG1 back when that was released and that is an all-time memorable game for me. For BG3, the gameplay is great, the combat is satisfying, the spellcasting feels good, and the story and cinematics are enthralling. I buy and play a game.

    Finally an RPG that is worthy of the title. GOTY for me. After the disappointment of Diablo IV it is good to get an amazing single player experience from an amazing game. No monetization or live service aspects which is how I want games to be.

    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.
