I wonder how many hours do you have to play before it gets good?

Nitrox254d ago

For me, it was around the 5/6 hr mark when it started coming together and the intrigue set it. Also about the time I started to actually grasp the controls and interface. Learning curve for sure.

jznrpg254d ago

That’s not too bad. Reasonable to me. Days Gone took around that maybe a little more where it started to get really good though a different type of game. More than 10 hours is too slow of a burn generally

victorMaje253d ago

That’s about right. By the time I got my bearings with the controls & different systems things started to feel really good.

So far the setting is right up my alley, I’m loving the story & character stories. Intrigue definitely sets in.
The voice acting is very good & the narrator is superbly well voiced.
Didn’t know I missed turned based that much :)

Goosejuice254d ago

Best game I have played in a long time

Becuzisaid254d ago

Once you reach the druid cove it starts to open up significantly but seriously that's like right after you crash land 😂

neutralgamer1992254d ago

I remember originally playing horizon zero dawn and never getting into it. Quitting multiple times. But one day I decided I will give the game a chance and after 5+ hour mark the game was good

Days gone is a game I never got into and I think I need to do the same

Storm23254d ago

Days Gone took a while and then I loved it

Grilla253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

Fighting the zombie hordes was probably the most fun I’ve had in years. I played it on easy so I could take out smaller hordes early in the game.

The massive hordes are just nuts.

repsahj253d ago

It started to get good for me in just 2 hours after I finished creating my first character. XD

GotY is going to be between this and Zelda TotK.

Scarpa123253d ago

Spiderman 2 is gonna be great but it cant compete the with the massive goliaths being TOTK and BG3

jznrpg254d ago

After I’m done with Armored Core 6 , Remnant 2 (working on plat) and Trails games I’ll buy Baldurs Gate3 . I wish they had physical though. I’ll hold out long as I can and hope to hear something by then.

Supremeclientele253d ago

Having already played divinity original sin 2 this seems a hell of alot easier . Amazing game

anast253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

GOTY possibly GOTG

Fascinating
If anyone is interested, I will never beat X-COM on the hardest difficulty

Michiel198917d ago

I can't really remember if I tried xcom 1 on the hardest difficulty but I gave xcom 2 on the hardest difficulty and ironman plenty of shots and it just seemed impossible. I don't often give up, but that game beat me.

anast17d ago

No real examples on why honor mode was too difficult. What I mean by this is there was no mention of the builds and gear he/she was using or classes and races.

Nittdarko17d ago

I mean I understand, after 14 attempts (non cheese) me and 2 friends finally beat it, It's really not for your everyday party adventurers

Don't get me wrong, a casual player could easily google (BG3 cheese builds) and Moon druid or Tavern brawler their way to victory with some ease, but going in playing it blind or telling yourself not to break the game and play normally is never going to end well at all.

Funny as well because Divinity Original Sin 2's honor mode was a fraction of the difficulty of BG3.

Popsicle17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

I won’t either. I am a dirty save scummer who definitely lacks honor on my dice rolls and checks. Not turning TAV into a squid just because I wanted a few parasites burrowed into his brain. Lol

Even Though Larian Is Done With Baldur's Gate 3, I Believe The Game Deserves DLC

Danish from eXputer: "DLC for Baldur's Gate 3 could resolve some unanswered questions and offer more sought-after content for what is otherwise one of the greatest RPGs in recent memory."

Leeroyw21d ago

They made their point on DLC. Respect that.

FACTUAL evidence21d ago

See this is what damn near killed gaming in the first place, DLC! I respect a good game that’s already heavily content driven. Whatever happened to having a good game, playing it from start to finish, and then enjoying it for what it was and waiting for a sequel with a whole new outlook? I hate the fact that there are people out there willing to get nickeled and dimed by developers then complain about how we get pelted with unnecessary dlc.

I feel more devs need to do what they are doing. Tbh, I couldn’t care less if dlc was gone completely. I could go as far as saying dlc ruins game preservation as well. Not going to go too deep into that but basically Baldur’s Gate devs gets my thumb of approval.
