I agree and Larian Studios is an excellent developer. I think the game just needs more dev time overall. I can see this being a great game for late 2021.

I'm with you and Larian. I would have been fine with the "real time turn based" game play of the previous Baldur's Gate and Iceland Dale games. But lets be honest, who played those games without using the pause button in every single battle to issue orders to your party? Those games might as well have been full on turn based where the game automatically pauses for each character and enemy to take a turn. They would have been completely impossible without the pause button.

And not only that, but the Divinity games are full turn based and they are incredible. Not to mention D&D in general is a turn based table top game. It makes nothing but sense to do this with this game.

Agree..what a crazy year we are going to have with game releases.

I'd suggest anyone to watch LArian's documentaries on YT, both on OS2 aand OS1 to keep optimistic abouut this wonderful studio and their moves.

Baldur’s Gate 3 Is The Kind Of Game That Makes Me Wish I Could Play One Thing At A Time

I respect people who can dig deep on one game, and only one game, but I can't do it.

I used to play multiple games at a time but because of the time constraints I have I don’t have a choice but to play one game at a time or I’ll end up with some unfinished games. I like to get platinums for the games I enjoy the most so it can take me a long time to get to the next game.

It definitely takes some will power as I always have a stack of games I want to play at all times. But most of the games I play are really good and I am fully immersed when I’m playing a single game at a time.

Same here. I’ll focus on a game that I really enjoy and get the most out of it before moving onto the next title. That is why I have a massive backlog of games now.

Armaggedon21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

Same for me. I play so many games, currently playing oblivion, expedition, blades of fire, bg3 with friends , avowed, and Nioh 2. After learning more about myself and gaining mastery, I have developed an ability to get fulfillment from a game without needing to “complete” it. Unless of course, a game hooks me for the story, in which case I have to complete it to see what happens. I have discovered that in terms of gameplay, one can get most if not all of the expected experience in about 25% of progress through play.

Sounds like renting is the best way to go in your case. No point in buying games you won't complete.

Armaggedon21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

It depends on what one deems as “complete.” For some, it is completing the story, and for others it is completing all tasks and objectives. Usually when this happens, people will feel “that was fun, whats next.” There is always a whats next. Cant think of anyone that has consumed media and thought “I am completely satisfied and will not need to play or watch another. I have simply mastered this “hunger” if you will. I am able to get so far in a game and then move to another without needing to reach a certain requirement. A benefit of this is that I do not get bored, as that game I didn’t beat still has mystries to unravel and new things I haven’t done.
