It seems the game is on its way to becoming an incredibly accurate D&D videogame but I have to say, the fact that it's still in development even though they had promised to be done with it by now is kind of annoying. Then again, making videogames is incredibly hard so it's not like they can do it overnight. Nonetheless, Baldur's Gate 3 is definitely a well-made game and I think it'll soon become the golden standard for this genre. But for now, I don't know if I would recommend it to anyone.
I DO think this game is great and there's many reasons to buy it even if it's not finished yet. The gameplay in itself is pretty run-of-the-mill for this genre of games but it's also really fun. I'm a sucker for games where you can customize your crew completely and live out your fantasy and basically do whatever but at the same time, I feel like the game tends to push you on a certain path a bit too much sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I like that it's story-driven, but damn does it feel like whatever you do or say will basically do jackshit for the story and it'll just keep on chug-chugging.
The graphics are so beautiful and while I am definitely one to marvel at graphics, I usually don't give them too much of an importance. But GOD DOES IT LOOK GOOD! And the funniest part is that the graphics are THIS GOOD for a game that features primarily isometric gameplay so you can never truly appreciate it in its entirety. I have to say, though, that I encountered a few visual glitches that kinda bugged me and reminded me that I was still just playing a videogame, so that took me out of the experience a bit.
As a big, BIG fan of Dungeons & Dragons, I really liked this game. It abides by 5e rules and that makes me happy cause that's what I play :)) but nonetheless, I'd recommend this game to basically anyone who's looking for an action RPG with huuuuge character customization and a plot that is actually lowkey interesting. Although the fact that it's NEVER on sale and that the game is about halfway done in terms of story and gameplay makes me kind of reluctant to advertise it as an "amazing game".
