    Finally knocked off The Witcher 3, The Last of Us 1 and 2, Spiderman, and bodies Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. Two of the greatest games ever made are RPGs, march the beat of their own drummer, and represent everything good about gaming with maximum quality and no microtransactions!

    Just a great game. Everything I wanted from Larian's next game. Add in the fact that the early access campaign was productive and didn't overstay it's welcome, and you have a product worthy of every cent.

    A great deep dive in DnD experience. Every piece of the game is a handcrafted to make your choices relevant. Its probably the most ambicious RPG game that I ever played, ando certainly creates a new paradigma for the default experience of the genre in the AAA segment.

    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.

    Baldur’s Gate 3 is nothing less than an absolute masterpiece. From the superb D&D 5e mechanics implementation, to the fine graphics and superlative voice acting, to the rich and deep narrative, it is in my opinion one of the best crpg’s ever made and certainly the best of this decade! I really enjoyed early access but I am so looking forward to many hours playing the full game.Baldur’s Gate 3 is nothing less than an absolute masterpiece.

    What a beautifully crafted game. Its easy to see right away that a lot of heart and care has gone into this game, something sorely lacking in most games today.

    The best possible implementation of D&D as video game. Still with Larian style. Best game of the year

    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.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I didn't believe I am going to live the best gaming moments of my life at 36, in 2023 after all the disappointing release of so many games. Baldur's Gate is a Masterpiece, it's not only a game, it's an odd to passion and a love letter for gamers. This game encapsulate all what we love about video games. Enjoy the journey. Thank you Larian for the game.... hats hoy to you. Expand

    This game is one of the most amazing RPGs ever created. Larion has cemented their selves as a Legendary studio after this.

    This may be my favorite game of all time. So much story, beautiful graphics. Depending on the person I could understand its not their cup of tea, but how can there be any negative reviews for this masterpiece. Shame on you, negative reviews are for broken games and ones with ridiculous monetization.

    I love every second I’m playing this game! So happy I know I’m not missing out on quests and items just because I’m not paying any more than I’m supposed to.

    Larian's best game and the best CRPG right now. This game is literally DnD on steroids and easily be the game of the year.

    Sou um enorme fã de RPG e honestamente esse é o melhor RPG que eu já joguei na vida, o fato dele emular d&d de forma tão perfeita chega a me emocionar e me dar uma nostalgia braba, pra melhorar eles melhoraram muito os sistemas de algumas coisas que não funcionavam no tabletop, tá gostoso demais jogar esse jogo e acredito que vá seguir assim sempre, recomendo mt

    As far as CRPGs go, this is the best from the best devs. A true adaptation of DND with great performance.

    10/10. If you're a fan of hardcore, narrative-driven RPGs like what Bioware used to create once upon a time, then you can't ask for anything more than Baldur's Gate III

    BG3 is pure enjoyment for me. Larian is hitting 1000 with their CRPGs. This game is all I have been able to think about today at work and I can't wait to have the weekend to really lose myself in it.

    So far I can say the best RPG of decade. I love DoS2 but Larian did it again, they made even better game. I much more prefer BG3 combat system, graphics for cRPG are amazing, story engaging, interesting characters ( ShadowHeart is love). It's rly hard to stop playing. My personal GOAT. I think Larian and maybe Swuare Enix are 2 last studios I still trust. Larian just showed you still canSo far I can say the best RPG of decade.

    Baldur's Gate 3 is a true evolution to Divinity: Original Sin 2 while also porting over Dungeons & Dragons 5e mechanics to nearly everything you do. This is the only game I've played that actually feels like Dungeons & Dragons aside from Disco Elysium, though that had no combat mechanics.

    Baldur's Gate 3 is a true evolution to Divinity: Original Sin 2 while also porting over Dungeons & Dragons 5e mechanics to nearly everything you do. This is the only game I've played that actually feels like Dungeons & Dragons aside from Disco Elysium, though that had no combat mechanics.

    Baldur's Gate 3 is finally out of early access and fully released, and it is a masterpiece of role-playing. It is a game that lets you create your own story and adventure in a vast and rich world, full of choices, consequences, and possibilities. You can play as one of the pre-made characters or create your own from scratch, choosing from a variety of races, classes, backgrounds, and skills. You can recruit up to three companions to join your party, each with their own personality, goals, and secrets. You can explore the Sword Coast and beyond, encountering friends and foes, allies and enemies, mysteries and dangers.

    Baldur's Gate 3 is not just a faithful adaptation of the tabletop game, but also a stunning visual and audio spectacle. The graphics are gorgeous, the animations are fluid, and the environments are detailed. The voice acting is superb, the music is epic, and the sound effect design is well-made for the kind of game it is. The game also runs smoothly on PC, despite being a huge and complex game.

    Overall, Baldur's Gate 3 is an impressive achievement that deserves praise and recognition. It is one of the best RPGs ever made, and one of the closest to emulating the experience of tabletop D&D. It will likely go down as one of the greatest RPGs of all time, if it hasn't already, but especially so once the Workshop modding support is added to enhance replayability. All future RPGs will be compared to this game as they used to be compared to Skyrim and the Witcher 3. It is a game that will keep you hooked for hours, days, or even weeks, and even months or years later you'll find new things you haven't seen before on a previous playthrough keeping you engaged and wanting to come back for more.

    Beter than any game I have played in years. It takes the CRPG genre to an entirely new level. There is a reason the rest of the industry fears this game and has been calling it an "aberration" and telling customers not to expect anything as good as this ever lol.

    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.
