Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 Early Access Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

I want to know about ITEMS. Is the loot hand placed? Is it all generic RNG trash? How good are the uniques?

Probably because half of us are on slow american internet and it takes forever to download.

im on american internet and my steam downloads page says its peak is 50 MB/s, stop using roguey's ISP

Much of the suburbs don't have a choice. No fiber. Even near major cities.

The color contrast is stuck at 11

Thats just how things look in the civilized world (sunny places like Brazil). You wouldn't understand, rain dweller.

I live in the middle of the woods in a rural area and have fiber. USA has some of the fastest home internet in the world -- which is impressive considering how spread out the country is.

Yeah, jesus christ. I've been checking this thread every 30 minutes for some first impressions and it's still just shitposting and autism.

The more we delay getting to that part, the more we delay the inevitable moment when we realize the decline we are about to witness. It's a form of self-defense or self-defense mechanism. Won't last long.

It's not complete game so.... it's neither. Worth 60? Nah.

Geez GOG download is 60 GB ish for the installer.

Probably 1 whole day just to download this using SEA internet (probably more as I need the internet for work as well, WFH and all).

I paid about $30 for it, but I have about 5 or 6 hours of download time, so...

 

[Ninjerk]

If no one who is playing the game is talking about it here, that must be a good thing, right? Too busy having fun?

 

[Terenty]

Why do they insist on making every animation so retardedly clownish? I don't get it, did they play any of the previous BG games?

Decided to watch some stream a bit, first thing i see is the main character doing some retarded stretching exercise like mr. Bean.

Why?

 

[conan_edw]

Only finished the intro since I had to go to bed.
Encouters were pretty easy, only one type of enemy (there are others but fighting them isn't mandatory) also I felt the area was pretty generous with powerful scrolls and healing spots. I suppose it's to make people more fimiliar with the rules and not throw so much at them at once. However, I kinda feel D:OS2 entry had more difficulty but yeah part of that was just because the number of enemies but yeah BG3 still felt more enjoyable.
Also, doesn't switching weapons cost an action or maybe a bonus? Or you can do it freely? since it looks like the game allow you to do it freely however I didn't try that while engaged. The DM that I used to play with allowed us to do it freely most of the times so I have no idea what's the stance on that.

 

[conan_edw]

Also, production values are really impressive for a top down rpg, I like the animations for sneaking or running or just idling, though I always wonder if it's worth it.
I'm not sure if I'm having idea on what's going on with the story but the general atmosphere is great.

Holy fuck. Apparently the GAMEPLAY in Baldur's Gate 3 is the last thing the Codex wants to talk about today.

Oh, this is the Baldur's Gate 3 gameplay thread? I would've never guessed based on the latest pages ITT.

Answering the question nobody asked: “What if Michael Bay made a D&D 5e game?”

lol, that's how i assumed it would be yeah

 

[curry]

After playing this garbage for 45 minutes I can safely say it's a massive disappointment. It feels a lot like DoS 2 except it's much worse.

 

[Payd Shell]
