    Maybe they should've made female characters who looked like chicks instead of men if they wanted good reviews from countries where mental illness isn't celebrated and required by law.

    It's 36/40. Less than the Final Fantasy XV QTE extravaganza.

    Translated usingDeepL:

    Reviewer 1:

    The most notable feature of the game is the variety of approaches. The game offers a number of ways to solve problems, and the "weight of the choices" that the player makes will greatly affect the subsequent development of the game, leading to an interesting experience. The use of dice to select actions at key points in the game gives the game the feel of a table talk RPG. The strategic battles are also worthwhile. However, although there is a tutorial, it is not fully explained, and it may be difficult to get used to the game until you understand it better.

    Reviewer 2:

    Without knowledge, it is hard to notice, but as you play, you discover that you can take many different approaches to the game, and your hat is off to them. It is true that there are many factors that make it difficult to get into the game, such as the special rules that determine success or failure with dice, overly detailed settings and parameters, etc. However, if you can overcome these factors, you will be hooked. However, if you can get past these, you will definitely be hooked on the game. Perhaps it is because of the unique storytelling style, but it was refreshing to experience the feeling of playing a real table talk RPG.

      Reviewer 3:

      The best part is that you can experience your own personal story in the world of "Dungeons & Dragons". While there is a high degree of freedom, it is amazing to see the wide variety of approaches and solutions in both battles and quests, even though some of them may seem small and difficult. There are also plenty of options in conversations and events that are worth thinking about. It is good that not only can you create and play as a character, but you can also play as seven origin characters with their own dedicated stories.

      Reviewer 4:

      It is too much fun to walk around the world of "Dungeons & Dragons" and experience firsthand how people live and the relationships between races. The graphics and dialogue, even among the mob-like NPCs, are well done and add to the immersive experience. The dice rolls for choices, as well as the highly strategic turn-based battles that rely on numerical values, have a table-top RPG feel to them. The only thing that bothers me is that it takes a long time to make up your first character due to the many choices you have to make.

      All four gave the game (on PS5) a 9/10.

        Famitsu is notorious for handing out perfect or near perfect scores for standard JRPG fare while generally snubbing and turning their nose up at western games.

    This is likely flamebait but unironically true, most common complaint in Japanese players and critic reviews is that the game is too hard and that it's difficult to understand for them.

    They don't put as much stock in fricking ugly women or being gay so there's not a lot for them to be found in BG3. Having all the women be flat as hell probably made them feel at home though

    Japan simply doesn't draw their RPGs from tabletop culture like the west does. It's not surprising they fail to understand what it's about.

      Asia simply doesn't draw it's culture from the french revolution and the englightenment. They do not view themselves as individuals, capable of making their own decisions, and shaping their own destiny, but as ants in a colony, assigned roles at birth by a higher power. Protagonist, or "hero", are too roles to be filled and executed without question. Deep down, authors of asian RPGs are dissatisfied by the state of their society too, which is why asian RPGs often end by "killing God". But they're not dissatisfied by the mechanism of the system, but by who was granted the priviledge to sit on top. Their wish is to dethrone them, not to extend the priviledge of decision making to others, ie the player

    Isn't nine an almost perfect score? Also from what i've seen of Japanese people playing the game once they start getting the gameplay systems like jumping, throwing things, sneaking and ambushing etc. they start liking the game a lot. Most people that hate on the game simply don't understand how it works and strugle with the combat.

        Skyrim is a simple game and is very accessible because of its incredibly one dimensional action single button combat. Even the biggest smoothbrain can enjoy Skyrim's ''unga bunga fus roh da''. BG3 has tactical combat and there are people dying on the story mode difficulty. I've seen it on stream, i was shocked but i saw it happen. BG3's combat/gameplay is filtering people hard(smoothbrains).

    That's almost the same score as Forspoken. There's two conclusions we can draw from here:

    1) Don't play troonylations. Always play it in the language the director played it in. One of the biggest strengths of BG3 was the voice acting and one of the biggest weaknesses of Forspoken was the English dub.

    2) The possibility that the Japanese are jingoist gaygits. Maybe they are biased towards their own domestic devs. Unlikely because they gave Starfield and other Bethesda games high scores, but worth bringing up

    This is a joke, right? I want to dismiss it but I've heard this multiple times now in relation to BG3 and I simply can't process it. Are the memes about endless, soulless, zero effort JRPGs and gaccha slotmachines actually true, have Japns just lost any ability to play games?

      That's why they shat and pissed their pants at the thought of DQ12 being a tactical/strategy turn-based. Japanese RPG players only want to press 1 button to select Attack command from the menu and see the numbers go big. Positioning, map awareness, etc are too much for them.
