Maybe my dream game. This game is so massive I'm not sure if I'll ever be done with it.

astarion will be discussed for years to come. this is an all timer and the perfect crpg in every way imaginable. even if you dont like crpgs you'll like this. play it. if not for yourself, for astarion

Insane RPG with so many branching paths. One of those games that you can tell on your first playthrough that it will definitely NOT be your only playthrough. Nuff said


Played through 4 times within 4 months. Really great game, good story telling with so many things to do and so many variables. Will pick it up again at some point.

A wonderfully realized and crafted DnD game that I cannot for the life of me get into fully. This has nothing to do with the game itself; there's almost nothing about it I dislike (apart from some bugs). The story is well told and thought-out, the companions are interesting and are worth getting invested into, it looks beautiful, etc.

I'm just too simple-minded of a player to really take advantage of all the game has to offer. It gives so many options and is so open-ended that it stumps me on how to take advantage of it all and I ultimately neuter how fun it can be because of it. It's one of those RPGs that I love from a story perspective and hope can one day become informed enough to play to the end.

Um dos maiores jogos da história, uma liberdade surreal de coisas a fazer no jogo, quests mto bem elaboradas, personagens únicos, excelente ambientação do D&D e infinidade de cutscenes e finais

Been playing computer games since 1979 (yep on cassette) and this is the greatest game I have ever played..

Conclusion:
I’m happy to report that Baldur’s Gate 3 fully lived up to the hype for me; this absolutely deserved Game of the Year (and I adore Tears of the Kingdom). It takes DnD (which I also love), and translates it almost perfectly into video game format. Seriously, the gameplay loop here is extremely fun and addicting, and it’s almost overwhelming how many choices you receive just in terms of combat. Presentation-wise, it’s almost flawless. The music is fantastic, the graphics are quite impressive, and the cinematic cutscenes are awesome. The story is fairly simple on its head (save yourself and then the world from Mind Flayers), but there’s enough twists and turns to keep it interesting. What really sets the narrative apart is the depth of the character writing, and the voice acting. Literally all of your party members are amazingly acted, particularly Astarion and Karlach, and they completely sell certain emotional beats. It’s also very fun to dive into their individual stories; I found a few party members a little boring (Wyll, Halsin), but enough were cool that I was more than satisfied. Honestly, I only have a few criticisms of the game (which is crazy considering it’s length). Firstly, it can be a little glitchy, particularly in Act III, but it’s nothing too bad. What’s more serious though, are a few structural issues. For one thing, Act II’s entire setup implies that you should do Shar’s Temple before Moonrise Towers, when in fact you’re supposed to bounce between them. I almost made that mistake before Googling it to make sure. Also, Act III is probably a little too overwhelming in terms of new quests; it can be hard to manage your time when you have 6 major active quest lines to complete, and they all seem urgent. Overall though, these problems are fairly minor, and I loved almost every minute I had with the game. I’m absolutely going to replay this multiple times. I love Baldur’s Gate 3.

I've put 100 hrs into various attempts at getting through Act 1

Se você é amante ou já experimentou alguma vez RPG de mesa e gostou, Baldur's Gate 3 vai ser a melhor experiência que você vai ter dentro do universo de D&D num PC/Console.

O jogo é cheio de possibilidades e com várias escolhas dentro dele variando totalmente os cenários dos personagens e na história no decorrer dos Atos.

Porém nem tudo é flores, atualmente estou no Ato 3 e jogando no PlayStation 5 (não sei se no PC ele tem os mesmos bugs) e o jogo sofre com alguns problemas de otimizações e bugs. Esses bugs você começa a notar eles com mais frequência no Ato 3 e às vezes atrapalham um pouco o jogo.
Alguns exemplo de bugs que podem acabam te atrapalhando são: você selecionar uma habilidade e o personagem demorar pra executar ela ou ele não mostrar a animação, às vezes eu noto que quando tem muitos inimigos na área a IA do jogo acaba simplesmente pulando o turno e/ou o inimigo não executando ação, o som do jogo desaparecendo, texturas às vezes demorando pra carregar e também notei um diálogo opcional no Ato 3 que está sem voz.

Aos poucos a Larian está lançando patchs que corrigem esses bugs. Acredito que num futuro tenhamos uma versão definitiva de Baldur's Gate 3 assim como os outros jogos da Larian receberam com o tempo, mas mesmo com esses bugs minha experiência com o jogo não foi afetada a ponto de eu desistir dele pois todo o universo, narrativa e desafios acabam compensando isso.

O jogo merece 5 estrelas porém por faltar alguns polimentos e correção de bugs eu vou dar 4.

É um jogão e é meu goty desse ano de 2023.

eu literalmente não quero zerar esse jogo, eu quero explorar cada centímetro, ouvir cada dialogo, conhecer cada personagem, encontrar itens raros!
o negócio é outro nível. OUTRO NÍVEL

It don't get better than this. Holding back 5/5 for the inevitable directors cut edition.

im having so much fun with this game, the options are always so silly and so are the characters

Perfeito. Final talvez tenha deixado algumas coisas em aberto, entao eu preferiria um final em um mundo aberto, mas seria pedir demais. Jogo incrivel, simplesmente

Yes it's that good. Also i'm still shocked by how good the non pre rendered cutscenes are.
Companions quests are definitely the best part of the game for me.

Utterly fantastic. Still need to knock off a bit of act 3. I've seen more than enough to rate it 5/5 though.

fantastic but act 3 had noticeable drop in quality

Best RPG of all time, you know its good already

My super scrambled thoughts on this game can be found here:https://joshdl.com/2023/12/07/my-scrambled-thoughts-on-baldurs-gate-3/

I'm shelving this for the foreseeable future. I really want to wrap it up un 2024, but it's not the kind of game I want to be playing with a Newborn.


this game. THIS GAME BRO I ADORE DND AND THIS GAME WAS A PERFECT DND GAME

I'm not huge on the gameplay interface since I was hoping it would be more like Divinity Original Sin 2, but still a really great game.

Deserved game of the year, 100%. Other games should take notes.
