ngl, BG3's run is goddamn impressive
I'm still on my first playthrough with friends
I'm one of those 20% and I ended up hating the game. AAA slop game.
Never played this on early access. Wanted this game for years. Finally get it and I hate it. Only Hell Let Loose is a bigger disappointment.
I played the first chapter in EA and it was meh. But the whole experience made me hate it.
not my fault it shat the bed as soon as act 2
I'm one of those 20% and I ended up loving the game. AAA slop game.
>play game with me credible amounts of customization
>play through game
>curious about other choices, wanna try a better build
>don’t finish previous one
>have like 20+ saves all different, non finished
It’s almost like people enjoy playing the game rather than finishing the story
>anon discovers that people don't actually finish games, especially 100 hour rpgs.
been playing this game for over half a year with a bro completely blind all the way through in co-op, we're at Act 3 now and just finished that underwater timed escort mission section with all the Gondians, goddamn that was fun
>more than 80% of players prioritize other aspects of their lives over videogames

merely the first crpg to capture the tone of flavour of the month slop on netflix. rogue trader was better in the same year, it doesn't even rank all time as anything but a technical advancement.
I beat it twice. Will probably do a third run before the year is over
I'm more interested in replaying BG3 to see what kind of mods modders can make with an official tool compared to reinstalling Shartfield just to have to PAY some shitty modders for their shitty Shartfield Paid Mods. Todd is insane to keep trying to force paid mods but each subsequent game he pushes it in are shittier and shittier and thus less deserving of money than the last.
Played it many times
In terms of romance

Lae'zel>Shadowheart>Karlach>Minthara>Mizora(i wish Mizora had more content, her character is great)
Why are Larian games always so front loaded into the first act? Both BG3 and Divinity 2 are identical in the sense that the game just takes a nose dive in quality as soon as you leave Act 1.
the vertical slice and its consequences have been a disaster for the gamer race
Its how they design games. They feel like those amateur movie directors that direct and shoot scenes in the order the movie will play out in so they get burnt out 1/3rd thru the process.
played through it like 4 times. Lots of different dialogue, game and build options. its a one of a kind game. Dont know why Ganker has a hate boner against it
Your using the term "hate boner" belies what a fricking mouth-breathing moron you are. you should have a nice day immediately for the good of everyone who knows you.
why do you have such a hater boner against the term hate boner?

I have a love chub at most
>REEEEEEEEE YOU USED A WORD I DON'T LIKE THAT MEANS I WIN
Do you zoomers really believe the moronic shit you spout?
This game is botted to hell.
It is seen as a bastion to wokeness for ita box checking galore.
Dont forget the lenghts people will to manipulate your perspective of ideology
There is a reason for why the extreme right won every single county in france EXCEPT paris.
Long game. Some people play it only on weekends with friends etc.
When I beat the game last August the ending felt unfinished. Apparently they’ve added more but at this point idgaf
it was fun up until act 3
That's pretty normal for CRPGs
Bg3 isn’t a crpg it’s goyslop
Then what does that make all its CRPG contemporaries with even lower completion rates?
I don’t debate most people don’t finish crpgs. But I think putting queer bear fricking simulator next to real crpgs does them a disservice
I'm on my way to joining that 20%. Made it to the lower city a week ago and haven't played since. 0 drive to finish which is rare for me. so boring.
You burned out. Give it a rest and then come back to the game. The game has too much to do so a lot of people brains melt when you get to the city of Baldur's Gate.
lolno. it's just boring dude. I finished kingmaker in one go and it's twice as long.
>Kingmaker
>less boring
Now that's shitposting.
I had less trouble skipping months at the end of kingmaker than I do even caring enough to open BG3 in act 3. I have no interest in the Gortash. I have no interest in the companions endings. I have no interest in the gith/mind flayers. Orin is the only interesting part but not interesting enough for me to give a shit.
Because it's barely a game.
Because CRPGs are boring as hell.
I've been thinking about it for a bit, how can you fix Act 3?
they should’ve had you backtrack a little bit to act 1 and 2 areas (or even put new areas on those maps) for some of the quests so everything wasn’t so clustered in a such a tight space.
the city just feels like you’re going building to building room to room like a housekeeper picking up the leftover bits of story.
I just need it to coom
The game is massive. It will take most people that don't play videogames all the time at least 6 months to a year or more to finish it.
That's pretty normal for games, people just don't finish them
Act 3's narrative is weird. So at the end of Act 2 we have it set how we have the enemy army marching on Baldur's Gate, but everything is chill...relaxed...apparently, the army moves slow as molasses and isn't causing much of a stir? That's on the writing side. On the gameplay side, your build is finalized throughout the entirety of Act 3. You don't get a single level-up in Act 3 unless you skipped the ENTIRE Underdark and Grymforge segment of Act 1, maybe? So you're not doing anything new. No new skills, no new Feats, no new Spells. That makes it feel like a drag, I think, because at this point solving quests and winning fights isn't earning you anything. Reminds me of how shitty fighting in Obsidian's POE game was since they didn't earn XP from combat. Bleh. Maybe Larian should've upped the level cap by one more level? But D&D gets more fricking broken the higher level the players become, always has, it's actually a fundamentally flawed and shitty game system when you start looking at it with a critical eye.
>d&d gets more broken the higher level it is
no. it’s more broken the more it gets minmaxed and meta’d.
it’s a cooperative narrative game, it’s the dev’s job to facilitate as many possibilities as they can. balance is on the players and DM.
I finished it multiple times on the hardest difficulty.
It's okay. I think my main issue is that with any RPG that's voice acted, it ends up extremely limited in what you can do or say, severely limiting actual Roleplaying elements or player freedom. The game itself isn't bad. Though Act 3 could certainly use a lot more content in general. Though I do appreciate that they didn't do a Pathfinder and have you extremely min/max your buffs / debuffing just to do high level content. That shit is extremely boring and takes the wrong approach to min/maxing or number crunching autism, which itself can be a lot of fun.
>I finished it multiple times on the hardest difficulty.
Before or after they added Honor Mode?
The army is moving slow because you killed the general leading it and Gortash and Orin are starting to have trouble controling the crown. Gortash also wants power, he does not want the destruction of the city(Orin on the other hand.........)
Before and after. Twice without it, once with it. I would have done it again, but I just burned myself out. I haven't touched it since shortly after Honor mode was released.
That's a typical phenomenon with games in general, anon. Especially more so one as long/large as games like BG3.
Nothing wrong with that, I played Morrowind a lot when I was a kid, never finished the main story, same with Oblivion.
