Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

[Cael]

Diablo in tabletop

How dude? Would appreciate it if you expound on this since I can't grok which part you're referring to as Diablo like or MMO-like

Oh, the timers, the once per combat shit, the attacks into blocks of HP, the palette swap enemies, the lack of non-HP destruction, the same enemies but with tiers (normal, boss, etc.).

Basically everything to do with 4.0 and 5.0 when compared to 3.5. When it first came out, 4.0 was laughed at as being WoW on tabletop. After 3.5, DINO only appealed to the dumb MMO millennial crowd.

Sounds all like 4e.

Pretty much. MMO tier shit.

 

[Just Locus]

I mean, one of the reasons I didn't play BG3 at release was precisely because it was 5e, but I wouldn't call it "MMO-like"

 

[Fedora Master]

4E was such a success they had to bring back parts of 3 to make it palatable.

Then again, those were less popular games, with less fandom on the IP. Maybe it works the third time around.

This time we are talking about probably the most retarded CRPG fandom ever, so

 

[Old Hans]

Level editor would be great. Maybe somebody will make a good game with it. My hopes are low though, seeing the dominating trends on Nexus.

at best you'll get a zillion mods with titles like " My skeleton cave mod" which consists of a 2 rooms connected by a hallway with no working navmeshe and filled with 500 skeletons

I’ve heard a lot about some “very cool” custom campaigns or scenarios or some shit in DOS2, but being unable to overcome the Larianness of the game never cared to find out more. Was it any good?

By the way how’s the coop performed in bg3? Larian twitter cringemasters seem to be dead silent about it. Well at least judging by what shillitroon spams here.

Do they actually add something new in the 'evil playthrough'? Or just slap some cut scenes at the ending and call it a day?

There's a special red filter on everything.

 

[Lagole Gon]

Or a Divinity: Dragon Commander type game with the Nautiloid. Spelljammer.

Larian clearly had Spelljammer in mind when creating BG3:

I said it many times and I will say it again.
Larian should have tried making a wacky Spelljammer game instead of Sword Coast level 1 adventure.
It fits the "Larian tone" better. And the overbloat of "awesome" and "epic" could maybe even turn into a plus.

True. But Spelljammer doesn't sell, "Baldur's Gate" does.

You know what? I'll give em Spelljammer. Go hog wild. Make a degenerate Larian sexweirdo story with all the Psurlon Sex you could want.
But make it a decent simulation of Spelljammer. Give us ship combat, and trading and freaky-ass planets to explore. That would be something new, something bold.

coop works just like dos2. You jump into the game and do whatever you want, even if that means causing no end to grief to your friends by constantly making them slip on oil

Kuo-toa allies, but I don't think you even have to be evil to get them. So, no, nothing.

There are probably a few aspiring Neo-Nazis here, but mostly it's just retards

"We're not saying mods like that should not exist we're just saying you can't host them on our sites."
*People host them on their own sites*
"Actually we're saying mods like that should not exist but ones that do the opposite are okay."

It must be miserable to live daily life as one of those people. Their minds are always at war with itself.

Nah, they are mostly fine. The misery is mitigated by copious amounts of braindead entertainment like “Baldur’s Gate” 3

LMAO.

Larian is so winning that whoresons from inbred ridden forum of RPG Chudex and RPGHQIA+ made a mod for the greatest cRPG every created so that it can be palatable for their lesser mind.

You'll live out your miserable existence, decaying on the ground. You'll know that your bloodline ended with a mere tissue, and that your beloved game developer will never match Larian's achievements.

Nah, this is the best part:

The combination of complete lack of self-awareness, being on the precipice of getting it but then pulling away, the collective soygasm about button = awesome game, and the rest of the conversation where fags gon fag almost feels too good to be real.

Rejoice, brethren, for Bioware audience has finally found a new home. Here's hoping they stay contained in Larian-land.
