Aug 13, 2023Stunning game, believe me I've never played anything like it. I'm enjoying every minute of the game.
-
Aug 13, 2023Best Game in Years. Proves games don't have to be shooters or action games. Gorgeous, challenging if you want it that way and also has puzzles. Larian put a lot of time and money into it and it shows. EA has a lot to live up to with Dragon Age 4 next year. I mention this as they are of the same genre.
-
Aug 13, 2023It's Baldur's Gate 3, Divinity Original Sin 2 and Dragon Age Origins mixed together with next-gen graphics. So what does that mean, it means they made a dream RPG game, atleast for turn based RPG genre.
-
Aug 13, 2023It's just so refreshing and nice to know that there are game devs that just want to make games and release them in their entirety without having to milk the fans or have parts of the game locked behind a paywall - there is love in this and it shows - the game is perfect - don't really care for the bugs cause look at what we got compared to 99% of most games
-
Aug 13, 2023Not just the RPG ever, but the best video game ever made. Kudos to Larian. That is saying a lot considering the decades of games I have played.
-
Aug 13, 2023Great game, best RPG turn based i ever play.
And if you dont like turn base... give it a try. -
Aug 13, 2023Melhor jogo já feito pela humanidade. Trouxe a verdadeira Essencia do RPG, Dungeons And Dragons e Forgotten Realms.
-
Aug 13, 2023A masterpiece role-playing game. It's standard, but with a lot of options and great options, what every gamer dreamed of is complete. Organized and intuitive graphics and manipulation perfectly assist this great adventure. There is no doubt that it is the best game of the year.

Aug 13, 2023The game I have been waiting for for years. Great story, polished content, no microtransactions and a full game with nothing left out to sell to us later. I will be playing this for a long time. This game is my new standard. I won't pre-order anymore and unless a game delivers to the level of BG3, I won't be buying it either.
-
Aug 13, 2023Best traditional RPG game I think i have ever played. Graphics are excellent, All the characters feel unique. The maps are huge and well thought out with great quests taking you all over.
-
Aug 13, 2023One of the best rpgs ever made, up there with the likes of Planescape Torment.
-
Aug 13, 2023Best game of all time, it's so incredible the ammount of things you can do, this is the absolute RPG game, i can't wait for the DLC's and i hope we can get higher levels.
-
Aug 13, 2023Las cantidades de posibilidades y eventos random en el juego es increíble y las decisiones que se toman si influyen la gran mayoría en lo que pueda pasar es un juego increíble .
-
Aug 13, 2023I made an account just to say how much I've fallen in love with Baldur's Gate 3, even though I don't even LIKE turn-based games much. The writing, characters, and choices you make haven't been this thrilling in ages. Could do with better inventory management though. All in all, a fantastic game made by people who clearly care.

Aug 13, 2023Best game I have ever played. Rven if you dont like turn based combat, but you enjoy rpgs GET THIS GAME! You wont regret it.
-
Aug 14, 2023I can say I signed up for Metacritic just to give this game a good review. I played the OG games and I am 30 hours into this game. I can not stress how much I love this game.
-
Aug 14, 2023Amazing game with amazing graphics and story. I can't wait for my second and third playthrough.

Aug 14, 2023This game does what most can not. It achives a perfect 10 and deserves to be game of year. It feels like since elden ring we have not recieved a game that felt actually complete apon lauch. If your on the fences becomes of turn based i normally hate turn based games and i havent been able to put this game down. Will buy a second time on ps5 for me and wifes play thru.
-
Aug 14, 2023Grats for the best CRPG game of the year. More just the one year. 100 hours and this is not even limit.
-
Aug 14, 2023amazing game from an amazing developer. I've never seen a CRPG be loved by both the hardcore old-school audience as well as those who don't generally play this type of game. Larian have outdone themselves once again
-
Aug 14, 2023I signed up just to reviews this amazing game. I don't even like turn based games but I love this game.

Aug 14, 2023What an adventure what a pleasure i just want to play again and again i didnt have this feelings since chilhood…
-
Aug 14, 2023Absolute masterpiece! Finally devs that value my time and money. No dodgy dlc, in game shop etc that other games are trying to get us used to. Just pure fun filled with great story, gameplay and interesting mechanics. Heared about D&D but never had the chance to actually play it? Well now it is the time to do so!
-
Aug 14, 2023I spent all night battling creatures, chatting with companions, and thoroughly enjoying the storyline. You must play this game because no other game will provide such an enjoyable experience with numerous options and Halsin, a lovable big daddy bear who has a fondness for honey."

Aug 14, 2023For the first time in a long time, a delivery on freedom and choice. A game that sets you in control, you choose how you want to take on this world
-
Aug 14, 2023Game is completely finished unlike alot of other games that come out nowadays. So many possibilities how to play, the story is interesting. I find it hard to stop playing. When I'm not playing I'm thinking about the different ways I could play when I get back on the game lol
-
Aug 14, 2023Melhor RPG já feito e sem dúvidas o melhor jogo do ano. Agora esperar que a versão de PS5 também seja tão boa.
-
Aug 14, 2023Amazing RPG, Don't let the Dungeons and Dragons system scare you, it's easy to learn and enjoy. Truly immersive and endless possibilities from start to finish. I am already thinking of things to do on my next play through with 50 hours already in the current playthrough. BUY IT ALREADY!!!!!!
-
Aug 14, 2023This game is spectacular. The attention to detail the studio gave to the world and interactions make the world feel alive. The story is excellent, the combat is fun, and I find something new in every play I have gone through.
-
Aug 14, 2023I played 53.7 hours in this the game and still haven't gotten past the first act (I will get out soon, there is not much left as I can judge), but it's still the best game of the year for me. Even if it gets worse in the future, which I doubt, because everything is only getting better and better, for me it will be a great game, at least for the impressions it gave me during these hours.

Aug 14, 2023Thought nothing could beat Baldur's Gate 2 but Larian did it. This is the best CRPG ever made. Congratulations on the entire team that made this game. it is so incredible and jaw dropping in several moments in the game.

Aug 14, 2023Um dos melhores jogos da década com toda certeza! É uma ótima representação da experiencia de estar jogando o bom e velho D&D com toda suas complexidade. Isso é o mais próximo de um RPG de mesa que um jogo eletrônico pode chegar. Perfeito!
-
Aug 14, 2023Amazing game built for players over profit. There's so much content it's baffling.

Aug 15, 2023The new standard for RPG games. The time of MTX hell is comming to an end. Thankyou Larian
-
Aug 15, 202310/10 the game is a true RPG, the only one that has managed to achieve something similar is morrowind and the withcer 3, without a doubt the game of the year
-

Aug 15, 2023One of best games ever. Ver good followup to the originals, as those are some of the best to ever be made, this one came up big. Shows love from developers. And no stupid microtransactions.
-
Aug 16, 2023Just love it, waited my whole life for such a crpg! It’s fun, it’s exciting, it has a good story. Thanks!
-
Aug 16, 2023BALDUR'S GATE 3 e jogo excelente nao tem oque fala merece comcorer jogo do ano.
-
Aug 16, 2023An absolutely sensational game that will set the bar to beat very high. Strictly the top RPG games of the last 20 years. It is not without flaws, but such a great project I can not be perfect. However, that doesn't stop you from getting screwed and gorging yourself for dozens of hours.
-

Aug 16, 2023The game is wonderful! Provides the full D&D experience. 17,000 possible endings is nothing short of spectacular! Various dialogues, npcs that make new things possible. A masterpiece. Congratulations to Larian for this achievement!

Aug 16, 2023Me he creado una cuenta nada más que para cascarle un 10 a esta Obra Maestra.

Aug 18, 2023Very Fun at the start, but the poor number of possible characters make it not worth it to replay. First playtrough was nice tho

Aug 20, 2023Amazing story!
Play Baldur's Gate 3 and watch Dugeon's and Dragons film!
-
Sep 9, 2023it is better then DoS2 when it comes down to scale and cinematics, however playing conjurer/necromancer is damn boring, since they nerfed Necromancy of Thai. You still likely to enjoy the game if your favorite class is warrior/barbarian/rogue, not so much with orhers

Sep 3, 2023Tengo más de 200 horas jugando llevo 2 partidas en paralelo. Una con un paladín y otra con un hechicero. Las 2 historias van distintas en varios casos intenté hacer lo mismo pero los dados me llevaron por una nueva historia. El juego es una verdadera obra de arte!!
Verdadero y puro rol. -

Sep 7, 2023Good history and artistic works but the combat style isn't the best for me, bit I consider that someone that likes the genre could have a good experience
-
Sep 7, 2023The turn-based combat system destroys all enjoyment of the game. On top of that, the 3rd act is clearly inferior to the previous ones. I also didn't like any of the companions, this hasn't happened to me before in any RPG.
-
Sep 7, 2023Weakest Baldurs Game in 2 very important for RPG categories , companions and story . Combat is nice exploration is nice too. But you can feel that its name Baldurs Gate just to get some free marketing . Overall good RPG , very medium Baldurs Gate
-
Sep 7, 2023Rly 10/10 after act 1 game are terrible performance and lot of voice problem and its boring
-
Sep 8, 2023This is a terrific game you dudes. A true adaptation of DND with great performance.

Sep 9, 2023Un jeu assez bon avec une grande liberté de choix. C'était vraiment amusant à jouer. Cependant, il y a encore quelques bugs, certaines quêtes sont inachevées, et je ne trouve pas très bien qu'il soit nécessaire de coucher avec un personnage pour développer une relation, surtout que cela se produit dès le premier acte.
-

Sep 8, 2023Masterpiece of a game. Endless possibilites and great gameplay. Larian still improving the game when this is written. But game very much in good playable state after Update 2. 175 hours in and can't wait for my second run.

Sep 8, 2023This game is pretty good. But doesn't deserve a 10/.10...many bugs, some quests are not well written or too predictable, new comers have difficulties to understand how it works and they don't really help, everyone wants to date you easily...
-
Sep 9, 2023Game of the year Branching storyline the game play the sound track it has it all.
-
Sep 10, 2023Best game I've played so far in 2023 or even in the last decade.
The game world is big, but every single inch of it is filled with purpose.
Dialogue is great, puzzle difficulty is just right.
Update: I am now about to reach a total of 400 hours play time. And the game has yet to grow stale on me. A high replay-ability value because you can explore choices you didn't take in your previous run. -
Sep 8, 2023El juego que mejor representa el clasico de papel y tablero en pc. me encanta
-
Aug 6, 2023The CRPG dream of my youth, where BG1 and BG2 featured prominently, is alive and well. I'm so glad a new generation is getting to experience the wonder of this amazing genre and series. If you like turn-based RPGs or DND then you should love this.
-
Aug 12, 2023Good game, but the ending is extremely lacking. ME3 levels of lacking. If Larian fixes in, it will be 10/10 for sure. For now I can rate as 9/10.
-

Sep 8, 2023Incredible game. I really loved it. It reminds me so much of Dragon Age Origins and the other Bioware Classics. Definitly Game of the year for me.

Sep 7, 2023Absolutely outstanding game. Combat is easy to learn but has lots of depth. Sets a lot of gold standards for an RPG. Just outstanding level of polish.
-
Aug 18, 2023I don't know what else to say.
This is the BEST game I've played in my 30 years of gaming.
Larian is on the top of the totem pole. -
Aug 10, 2023This game is how game should be done. Best game have play since a long time. Character development, Story telling, Well craft world, level Design to replay value, everything is just well done. Seriously, is a real game... It's NOT a Milky money big company game. I've play a lot of D&D back in 80's and 90's and i'm back there with this game.
-
Sep 12, 2023This is absolutely my GOTY. One of the best CRPGs of all time, this game have everything - deep atmosphere,mind-blowing music, great written companions ( oh my sweet Karlach) , villains are truly badass.....
-
Aug 23, 2023Very good game, very good storyline, best experience of all new RPG ever made.
Awards & Rankings

Mar 25, 2024With 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.
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 22, 2024Larian 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]

Dec 7, 2023Baldur’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.
