BG1 early game is painfully bad, only after level3 or so and you're out of lucky hit death does it become enjoyable. Try and remember archer deathsquads for example
IWD1 and 2 are much more lenient with that shit and have more enjoyable combat.

>From its underwhelming visuals to its lackluster storytelling, Baldur's Gate 3 is a disheartening example of wasted potential.
>Visually, BG3 fails to impress. In an era where stunning graphics are the norm, this game's visuals are a throwback to a bygone era. The character models lack the detail and nuance seen in other contemporary RPGs, and the environments feel uninspired and bland. It's as if the developers intentionally avoided pushing the boundaries of graphical fidelity.
>Storytelling is another major letdown. The narrative lacks the depth and intrigue that the Baldur's Gate series was once known for. Instead of engaging players with rich lore and complex characters, the game offers a convoluted and disjointed plot that fails to capture the imagination. Dialogue options often lead to unsatisfying outcomes, leaving players feeling detached from the world and its inhabitants.
>Furthermore, the game's combat system is a mess. Rather than refining the strategic and tactical elements that made the original games beloved, BG3 introduces a clunky and frustrating combat system that feels like a step backward. Battles are often mired in confusion, with awkward animations and imprecise controls detracting from any potential enjoyment.
>Even the technical aspects of the game are disappointing. Frequent bugs, glitches, and crashes mar the experience, making it difficult to immerse oneself in the world. It's astounding that a game with such a long development cycle could be released in such a sorry state.
>In conclusion, BG3 is a far cry from the legacy of its predecessors. With lackluster visuals, a shallow narrative, cumbersome combat, and technical issues aplenty, it fails to capture the essence of what once made the series great. Rather than building upon the strengths of the past, the game squanders its potential and leaves players yearning for a return to the glory days of the franchise.

I just finished Baldurs Gate 3.
Here's the review:
>graphics 4/10
faces look well made, but everything else - the locations, walls, trees, dungeons, look extremely weak - the worst ive seen in recent years, actually.
>music 2/10
music sounds like it was made by ChatGPT, completely ambient, unnoticable "nothing". There wasnt even 1 moment that made me say "oh damn thats good music".
>companion interactions and dialogues 1/10
absolutely sex obsessed, unreal interactions between horny 12 year olds. Halsin told me he want to bed me during our first conversation in the camp, and the shirtless Emperor offering sex was the most pathetic thing i saw in a game.
>non-companion dialogues and story 6/10.
its just "ok". Not great, not terrible. Its ok.
>combat 1/10
no fast forward button, no "ignore enemy turn" button, way too many filler trash encounters all over the game, just to artificially prolong the game. Combat boils down to just spamming 1 OP skill and clicking end turn.
>camera
doesnt work. Gets stuck - for some reason - on eveything, and can only move 15 meters from my character.
>map
doesnt work. when you press M it doesnt even have a bracket to tell me what part of the map im looking at and when i click somewhere the team doesnt go there.
>no weather patterns and no full day/night cycle 0/10
every single DND game ever made has full day/night cycle. Learn to code, Larian.
Especially cringe when playing as a Drow or a Vampire.
>UI 1/10
there's barely any UI art at all. It just.... is.
In fact, the whole game suffers from a lack of art direction.
Baldurs Gate is the ugliest city i have ever seen in an RPG. Its just a vomit of beige walls.
>4 person squad 1/10
should be 6.
cant even tell you how many times i had to go back and swap teammates for a quest.
>item and spell descriptions 1/10
>inventory management 1/10

Overall:
4/10 RPG game.
1/10 Baldurs Gate game.

What about elemental resistances?
I remember my DD caster being crippled vs 3/4ths of the enemies.
Either they had low phys armor so it wasn't worth dealing with both armor types or they had high resists if not outright immunity vs her element.
>>
>>683784528
I'm not reading all that either
>>
>>683772921
its the most forgettable DND game i have ever played, i was completely burned out halfway through act 2, i uninstalled it as soon as the end credits rolled and i reinstalled BG2 to get the bad taste of BG3 out of my mouth.
i really hated the graphics style (literally zero god damn aesthetics anywhere, especially the UI), the music was meh, all the companions were insufferable annoying cunts, and the writing in general felt very marvel parody tier, none of it seemed serious, it felt like everything was a joke or a tee hee hee quip or something.

dont even get me started on the loot - there was barely any loot/equipment in the whole game, and it was just boring and fucking lame, none of the loot was cool to play with.

it was 100% obvious the whole game revolves around pressing the "rest" button and spending god knows how many hours interacting with the annoying cunt companions.

thats not what i signed up for.

thank you for reading my blog post, have a nice day!

The last good isometric RPG that wasnt dogshit was Icewind Dale 2.
All those pathfinders games, baldurs gate 3, pillars, divinity and other trash made in recent years is borderline unplayable. All of them.

I am not forced to like any of these new trash games - and thank god, they're fucking awful.

I would rather reinstall BG2 and replay it 50 more times than play any of the new RPG's for even 2 minutes.

Modern gaming is dead

>>683784528
>shirtless Emperor
They forced that fuck way too much, I was already on bad terms with him by that point by rejecting him at every turn and he tries to make a move on me?
>combat
5e is already a bit boring on its own but Larian attempts at fixing it made it worse.
Damage spells are a waste of time (unless you abuse wet) since there's way too magic equipment for your martials and CC spells got their duration nerfed to the ground and sometimes they don't even work (see web DC) so the best party build is stacking martials and just hitting stuff with a stick instead of using cool spell combos like spike growth + gust wind and pushing enemies.

You get the various spark items by just doing the main quest and going to the burning inn, and the longsword in a very obvious rock in the underdark.

Great job Larian
Gust of wind isn't a concentration spell in BG3, it pushes shit once and thats it. In table top it pushes stuff every turn and makes it harder for anyone to walk against the current doubling movement cost and it stacks with difficult terrain so they move at 1/4 regular speed.

They've had time to fix small stuff like that with a different scene playing out or no scene at all but they didn't bother.

Its a decent game that in some ways is exemplary, there are also some ethical aspects that very admirable like having Lan coop with no DRM.

But it's story and combat do leave it in a bit of a rut at the end of the day, Id like to see what could be done with its design in a more interesting and satisfying game.

But god damn is the most poser of poser games ever, it's the fucking Stanley cup or whatever those overpriced thermoses women obsess over are called, even if it is a good product the surrounding buzz is annoying.

The amount of propaganda regarding this game, when it is not even that great, is amazing. People are used to so much slop that what would have been a 6/10 or 7/10 decades ago is now considered the best game of the decade. I guess this is how standards are lowered, and how people are sold inferior products. The fact that so many people fell for it just proves that so many people are utter morons.
