I won't play it
what game
Is the gameplay in BG3 any good?
its okay. a clear downgrade from DOS2.
DOS2 is way too cheesable with pre-fight nonsense
It’s similar to DOS, but movement, attacks and misc actions are split rather than coming from the same action point pool, you get more abilities and can spam them in fights but you also have to rest after using them all up, there’s less elemental surface spam, and you can use the environment more
It's slow as frick, especially when you have a lot of characters acting.
It's fun to thinker with but breaks if you discover certain OP combos
The Emperor is sex
YOURE BEING EATEN ALIVE BY A PARASITE STARTING WITH YOUR MIND
IT'LL TURN YOU INTO A MONSTER
Why the frick would I do any side quests under these circumstances? There's absolutely no sense of urgency. I know they eventually tell you that it's not like the others and normally people have turned by now, but I didn't hear this until near the end of chapter 1 after blitzing through everything.
>YOURE BEING EATEN ALIVE BY A PARASITE STARTING WITH YOUR MIND
>IT'LL TURN YOU INTO A MONSTER
then you eat every tadpole and become extremely powerful with no drawbacks other than some black veins lol
I thought the animation had the tadpole eat a segment of your brain to unlock power? I dunno I abstained from that shit. The wizard didn't though.
>I thought the animation had the tadpole eat a segment of your brain to unlock power?
i mean yeah that is what it does but there is no negative side effect to it. your character only gets stronger.
>YOURE BEING EATEN ALIVE BY A PARASITE STARTING WITH YOUR MIND
>IT'LL TURN YOU INTO A MONSTER
>finish Act 1 in 3 long rests
>miss shitload of content
good job larian
Pretty much, then in act 2 I got to the tower of the big bad and made the wizard teleport to the summit (big bad is always at the summit) whilst the rest of my party hid deep underground as far away as possible.
The big bad spoke to the wizard and said some shit then combat started. I activated the nuke.
I got a "bad" ending.
Whatever, it was an ending. I beat the game and never looked back.
>Get yourself killed
>Either the parasite dies or get someone to slice it out
>Withers casts raise dead spell
>Rinse and repeat with the whole party
Problem solved in Act 1
So you're saying if I resurrected the gay and the black who's bodies kept appearing in my camps, their parasite would be rezzed too? Dumb
You need to obliterate the head and cast true resurrection for that to work.
Granted Jergal’s capable of it, but either his hands are tied by the divine edicts, or he doesn’t want to risk the party going off script when he’s spent effort targeting them at the dead 3
>why would I do any side quests
Probably because you get about 3 separate rest cutscenes that tell you straight up that the ceremorphosis isn’t happening the way it should be
They never said "you're fine, it's doing nothing" they just say its not as fast as it usually is. I'm role-playing here. I have a guy with a thing in his brain that could kill him in a split second. Why am I going to assume that it being slower than documented (they're not even well understood and only a couple of specialists offer guidance whilst stating that they aren't exactly experts) is going to mean that I have all the time in the world to frolic with bards and pursue a romantic relationship with some equally TADPOLED b***h?
Well there’s the fact you meet other people with tadpoles in their heads that have clearly been around longer for 3 days, meaning the idea progress has been slowed isn’t just conjecture
Like who?
>YOURE BEING EATEN ALIVE
Wrong.
WotC has the copyright on The Githyanki and Mind Flayers. They obviously told Sven to make sure the game revolved around them.
>Tell the Emperor to frick off
>Rescue Orpheus
>Let Orpheus tadpolemaxx
>Kill the Emperor
>Kill the Nether Brain
>Kill Orpheus
>Let Lae’zel go with Voss
>Hopefully never see Githyanki and Illithids again
>Tell the Emperor to frick off
>Rescue Orpheus
>Tadpolemaxx
>Kill the Emperor
>Kill the Nether Brain
>Kill myself
I'm glad it's over
everyone thinks they want high fantasy
but its the most eyerolling stupid shit ever every time
you wanted grounded and low magic, you want impact and grit
nobody wants to start a game flying through dimensional ships of insane alien eldritch bullshit
I like both
A Pathfinder game with firearms from the Mana Wastes and alien tech from Numeria would be fricking awesome.
