Dec. 2024

As someone who has never played a game like this before, I debated a long time before forking over the cash for it. I know zero about D&D, have never played any kind of strategy game before. I haven't finished the game yet, but can tell you without a doubt it's one of my favorite games I've ever played. It's story-rich, the gameplay is incredibly fun, the characters are very well written. It's a 10/10 for me! Best game ever!

This game returned a piece of me that I hadn't felt in a long time. It gave me so much comfort. When I'm sad I'll load this game up and lose myself in it. I could sit there for days, play it, and not leave my room. It's given me a beautiful story full of characters written with so much care and detail, characters who have felt the same things I have, love, joy, abandonment, betrayal, hope, and so on. The endless possibilities, finding new things every run, seeing how beautiful this game really is. I've never felt so connected to any game before, and I don't think I ever will.

After finishing the game i just uninstalled every other game on my PC because i couldn't bear the thought of having trash like League of Legends installed on the same machine as this masterpiece. *Edit: Fixed typos

Oct. 2024

I bought Baldur's Gate 3, like many others, caught up in the wave of hype surrounding its release. At first, it didn't grab me. With no prior experience playing Dungeons & Dragons and not being a fan of turn-based combat, I struggled to connect with the game. The mechanics felt foreign, and I found myself drifting away to play other titles. But something about Baldur's Gate 3 kept pulling me back. I gave it another shot, and then, it clicked. I started to enjoy the combat, figuring out how to use the environment to my advantage, and I realized just how much influence you can wield outside of battle. Conversations, choices, and strategies became just as important as swinging a sword or casting a spell. I became invested in the characters, more than I have in any other game. Well, most of them — I don't like Wyll. His story just felt underwhelming compared to the others. Each companion had depth and complexity that kept me hooked. The freedom the game offers is truly unparalleled. I could shape my own story in ways that felt meaningful. I found myself losing track of time, wanting to know what would happen next. Fast forward 150 hours(!), and I’ve just finished my first playthrough. Without a doubt, this is the best game I’ve ever played, and I’ve played a LOT of games. The sense of emptiness it leaves behind is almost painful. All I want to do is dive back in and start a new run. (Taking suggestions on what character or class to try next) In summary, yes, I wholeheartedly recommend Baldur's Gate 3. It’s an unforgettable experience that sets a new standard for storytelling and player agency in games. PS: Be warned, though; after playing Baldur's Gate 3, other games may feel linear and their characters shallow in comparison.
