I’m still heads down into BG3… I don’t see myself coming back up for air anytime soon.
BG3 - finally got myself out of the early access area
Is that where the Gith is? If so I’m still in the ea area lol but I never played it.
BG3 with the wife, Diablo 4 with my brother, Hades by myself. It’s the golden age of gaming, friends.
Seriously. I’m never upset about a game delay these days because there are already so many games to play that I literally will not be able to get to in my lifetime. I’m still mostly catching up on games from the last few years and can’t imagine when I’ll even get to most 2023 games!
One of my kids is playing Joust on the Atari and the other is on the last dungeon in NES Legend of Zelda. They play Grounded on PC together. My daughter is really into Crusader Kings 3. And my son will never stop playing Minecraft with his buddies.
You could never touch a game from the 2020’s ever and still never run out of great games.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is so good, and this is coming from someone who struggled to get into isometric CRPGs in the past (really wanted to get into Divinity: Original Sin 2, but couldn’t make it stick; I’ll probably have to revisit that after loving this so much). Definitely give this one a go!
I’ve started playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 at least a dozen times and just couldn’t get into it enough to keep going. To me it feels like it would be best played as multi-player experience, and frankly I just don’t have any gamer friends willing to play it with me. I just bought BG3 because of this post, so really hoping I don’t run into this same dilemma.
Right? BG3 seems like it’s going to be a gateway game into more CRPGs for me. I think I’ll try my best to enjoy Divinity OS 2 afterwards as well, but I think my problem with that game is more about the unbalanced, nonexistent class structure and random difficulty spikes rather than the genre, which BG3 fixed by using tried and true D&D rules. But maybe I’ll see it from a different angle and appreciate it more.
This is exactly my experience. Always liked CRPGs, but I’ve literally never finished any of the classics, or any traditional CRPG for that matter (closest would be Disco Elysium or Dragon Age: Inquisition for me). But BG3 is really hitting for me. I absolutely love it, and I want to give more of these a try once I finish it.
Just forza, once a week
