It was good
I played as a double dragon and murdered most my party
wildshape isn't polymorph and polymorph is severely nerfed in the game, fake gays
Buy an ad.
It's both good and over hyped.
This. It is a good game, for certain, but it is no masterpiece: it may have been the best popular game on the market last year, but that isn't saying much. As some of the posts are pointing out, the story is very much a mediocre cookie-cutter fantasy story, with very little creativity, mystery and intrigue — it works as a bedrock for the mechanics of the game, the dialogue and the character dynamics, but it has no power of its own.
I personally also had issues with the aesthetic of the game, which I found to be way too bright and overdone for the kind of setting that BG is trying to portray; in general I tend to find fantasy games art direction to be severely lacking, with poor design and vision. I think that Skyrim, Morrowind and the original fallout games are some of the exceptions, of what I have played.
Anyway, it is a good game, just not a masterpiece.
Both, but it's not a game, it's a VN.
It's ok. I think people who gushed over it did so more for the romance options than the actual gameplay.
I'm playing it, it's fun, but it's not the god-given gift people claim it to be.
the things I thought I would hate weren't actually that bad. Like the woke shit was fairly tolerable, though maybe that's because I already knew which NPCs and dialog options to avoid from reading so much about it on Ganker. The turn based gameplay was surprisingly fun, although I still prefer RTWP. The story and especially the ending however were absolutely terrible. Like literally bottom of the barre, one of the worst forgettable and stupid stories I've ever experienced in a cRPG. For all the muh choices and conseqences talk, the plot near the end of the game really relied on the protag being a complete idiot without being allowed to make any logical choices.
Larian have always been terrible writers, even worse than Bethesda at points
they also notoriously rush the final stretch of the game. they polish the early content as much as possible with the help of early access players, then 'fix' it a year or three later with the definitive edition aka actually complete edition
if I had to guess, BG3 ends with some type of JRPG trope where you kill God or become some sort of demi-god bullshit and save or destroy the world
> ends with some type of JRPG trope where you kill God or become some sort of demi-god bullshit and save or destroy the world
It's exactly that, with the only difference being the deity you kill is somewhat new and young (but still a danger to all of existance ofc)
troony game
Act 1 and 2 are extremely good. Act 3 still feels rushed.
Best game I played in 2023, and I played a lot.
I wasn't expecting it to be.
It is good, but you can tell the people who say it is the greatest game of all time have never played a CRPG before
name a more reactive CRPG, because it stomps on BG1 and 2 for freedom.
I don't give a shit about how "reactive" the game is, it's a meme buzzword. BG1 and BG2 are vastly superior RPGs and stories, that's what really matters.
BG1 barely has a story and it's not all that interesting. BG2 has you fricking around in a single city doing nothing of note for most of the game.
You haven't actually played these games.
Having simple concise stories is better than the actual acid trip nitrous oxide tier nonsense that BG3 is
BG1 and 2 have barely any reactivity. I would say a game with nearly equal reactibility is New Vegas.
you don't even know what reactivity means, reactivity is god tier level game design. No larian is not capable of this
arcanum
how is bg3 reactive exactly?
What's your favorite CRPG?
Garbage writing and world design, Borderlands 3 level bad
Decent combat on Honor Mode with 5e Haste, garbage on anything below it
i think most reviewers and players get through act 1 and stopped there. The fact that there is so little mention of the mess in act 3 (bugs especially) makes me believe most people didn't even finish the game.
Act 3 is my favorite part of the game, despite it's issues.
Only 15% of players completed act 1 in the first place
Overrated troonyslop. Anytime a game is shilled that hard on Ganker it's guaranteed to be garbage.
its good
>futatroony says its good
so it sucks and is gay? k thanks
People don’t want to admit it but it’s probably one of the best RPGs ever made
People don't want to admit it, but it's your typical 6.5/10 Larian RPG. Larian are the very definition of mediocre.
i didnt find it fun
It was the greatest and most successful psyop in the history of gaming.
you forgot DOS 2, although it wasn't as successful
It's an okay gaem
I'm playing DOS2 and it's 10/10.
I'm redownloading it right now after dropping it years ago at the first combat encounter for the sole purpose of shitting on larian game design
It is okay.
it was good for the first two acts and then it went to shit in act 3.
Way overhyped. The writing is shit. The gameplay is ok, but buggy. Put it all together and you got a mid rpg.
consider this: larian is to zoomers as (old) bioware was to mellennials/gen x.
anyway, it's not good until endgame, or you actually play solo with a full squad of characters under your control. it sucks in a multiplayer context, because you have to sit and wait forever for people to make their moves, then wait for the enemy wave, then you only have a limited range of things you can do during your turn, plus outside of combat you have to exercise the patience of a saint as your fellow party members run in various directions while interacting with the world without you, picking up all the loot/resources and never sharing, basically being selfish pricks.
I don't know, maybe my opinion will evolve over time as I play it alone, but multiplayer is a miserable experience.
It's an above average CRPG.
Gets bogged down in it's own horniness though.
Dog shit camera that never got fixed.
Combat is pretty fun and easy to exploit. Dialogue is also fun with a good mix of serious and moronic paths.
>above average CRPG
>not even finished
Act 1 was really good
Act 3 was really meh
Not everyone got far enough into Act 3 to be critical of the game
It was both. A genuinely good game, but very overhyped.
overhyped by normal gays and coomers who never played any crpg's and this is their fifth rpg, 7/10, shit writing, companions and mediocre gameplay, also the fanbase has brain rot, they are like bronies/furries
The biggest problem with the game is there is no sense of adventure. All of the acts being confined into there own seperate areas means I feel like I am on a hike.
I haven’t played it yet because it’s still full price. I’ll let you know when ever they lower the price because I’m not paying full price for homosexual bear sex no matter how good the rpg behind that is.
just pirate it bro
I probably should but if it’s actually a good rpg under all the bullshit then I want to support it in some capacity. I know it’s not particularly consistent but that is my position
