>Single player RPG>Somehow has over 80k players more than two years after its releaseYeah this shit is botted.
>>721277863What do you think are the biggest flaws of this game? Inb4 gay shit
>>721277863It's a mutliplayer coop game though.
quintessential borny lolcow cope n seeth thread
>>721277960gay shit
You have to understand that BG3 is a really long game.
>>721277863
>>721277863Mod support.
>>721277863Its probably the same players replaying the game, because i dont think its gaining that many new players on a daily basis.Its probably DnD nerds playing together instead of meeting on a table.>>721277960Its borderline the perfect rpg for me, but if i had to point at a flaw i would say the choices around the emperor in the last parts of the game, if you care too much about the story it may come off as a bit forced and kinda whacky in the way it was implemented. You shouldnt care too much about the story in a game though, thats retarded.The writing however is pretty good, its reactive and funny.
>>721277863This is why Gameplay is king and why story games die quickly
>>721277863Larian wonObsidian lost Bethesda lostJapan Lost
>>721277863it's long ass game and almost endlessly replayable if you're autistic enough. i know like 2 people with thousands upon thousands hours on it.and i'm sure you can find 80k more of those type of people in the world
>>721277863>Single player RPG
>>721277863It's one of the greatest RPGs ever made, maybe the greatest.
>>721277960not enough variety in act 3 and a lot of storylines feel incomplete
>>721277960act 3 is a 4/10 (and this happens with most larian games where the last third is garbage for some reason), the rest of the game is absolute kino, specially act 1
>>721277863It's a popular game and a co-op slop, I can believe those numbers.
>>721278909Gameplay is important for... playing games, I see. Quick, take note, devs!
>>721277863outside of the gay bear shit, is this game actually good? i hate woke shit in my games but honestly seeing praise after praise i can't help being curious and i've been having an itch to play a huge rpg gamedo i need to play BG 1 or 2 before this?
>>721279758I really like act 3, I know a lot of quest end up spuddering out in a disappointing way but the act has by far the best encounters and bosses in the game IMO. Not to mention by that point, you've already got your build figured out and have a lot more tools to play with. Combat in act 1 is just a bit basic and vanilla in comparison.
>>721278246When Divinity 3 swenny boy?
>>721280072The game really isn't woke, you set the tone for your own story in it, gay homos do show up but how you treat them is completely up to you and you aren't ever judged for it either way. That said, it's absolutely worth playing if you are a fan of the genre, massive RPG with real depth, a ton of fun with friends, very replayable, it's hard to recommend it enough. You don't strictly need to play the first 2 games to get into it, but it is a true sequel to the original, you'll probably figure out exactly what is going on in the story a lot quicker and recognize this or that character if you have played them.
>>721277960Adolescent depiction of evil and the motivations of evil characters (Raphael is fine). Very adolescent cartoon world impaired to the Witcher (whose fault is being too dreary).
>>721279758Act 3 is more a 6 or 7/10The opening is an absolute fucking slog, but once you realise that the outskirts can be skipped it’s smooth sailing.
>>721280072It's a high effort game. The gameplay is very good. The story and characters are generally weak.
playing through it again atm as resist durge . its boring af but atleast i finally got the first map finished after like 20 fucking hours
>>721278246King.
>>721280072No, the game isn't even mediocre, let alone good. Every encounter is some of the worst most tedious in the genre. The quests are amusement park slop where you go to a building, the quest starts, and it's some drawn out, minimal actual effect and reward, worthless turd that just boils down to more xp. The writing and dialogue is equivalent to marvel ero-fanfic from reddit, quip after quip after desperate "Me want fuck" trash because it was written by faggot retards that don't know how to write anything good. The graphics mediocre for a modern game, at best; even TW3 looks more impressive most of the time. The world design and level design are the most generic and soulless garbage you would ever experience in your life, unless you played other shitpiles plopped out by these devs. The only reason why it got anywhere is because of bots, faggots, and modern spinsters. If you actually want good gameplay, stay far from anything larian. If you want good writing or an interesting story, again, far away from larian. If you want 50 shades of faggot written by a downie with brain damage, larian is right up your alley.
>>721277863Its my favorite crpg
>>721278246What's your next game, Mr. Vincke?
>>721278246>remember waaay back when larian was in the process of acquiring the BG loicense to make a sequel>thought to myself "man this is gonna be a complete shit show this shit never works"I legit don't think anyone could've predicted just how hard Larian would end up winning with bg3. It had all the telltale signs of a trash fire.
>>721277863>Makes a billy point five in your pathHow will Josh Sawyer recover from this?
>>721280101I'm happy for you but I definitely didn't like it. Getting to those encounters is a drag in act 3 imo, the game loses all sense of direction and it's the buggiest and worst performant act too. I even had the game soft lock on a honour mode run because it wouldnt let me walk out of the port section without crashing for some reason.>Not to mention by that point, you've already got your build figured out and have a lot more tools to play withFor me that's part of the problem, a good part of the fun is leveling and getting those new tools, by the point I reached act 3 I was almost lvl 12, so there was literally nothing to work towards during the whole thing. I agree that you dont have many tools at the beginning of act 1, but by level 4-5 you definitely have a good bunch already except for the simplest classes.
>>721277863Nobody ever discusses this game anywhere but we're led to believe it's super popular
>>721277863>Single player RPGWhile I can't see anyone but a married couple or some drug fueled highschoolers even attempt to finish a run that way, shit has co-op
>>721278246lizard girls doko
I felt a more classic d&d feeling going through a dungeon in eso than my 20 hours in bg3. there's like no exploration in bg3 you walk 10 feet to trip over another isolated encounter. bg 1 and 2 did it better
>>721281115Think so? I was pretty confident BG3 would be amazing, but obviously I couldn't anticipate the level of success it had. Well, I had also been playing the early access for years too. Never gonna forget that last panel from hell exploding the game into the mainstream eye.
>>721277960The writing. Every aspect of it.
>>721281032It's one of my favorite games ever. The hybrid CRPG/ImSim gameplay is just endlessly entertaining, and there is simply no analog for it in other games.
>>721277960Act 3, Baldur's Gate should have been massive instead of a few shitty streets
>>721281362>but we're led to believe it's super popularYou don't get a wikipedia page just for the prizes, awards and accolades your game received without it being at least somewhat popular.
>>721280101By far my favourite act. The verticality alone makes it so incredible for me.
>>721277863All larian and wotc had to do was make aurora toolset 2 with this game and we'd be set with online D&D campaigns both tabletop and virtual games, ripe with a lot of microtransaction potential as wotc migrates D&D to the virtual medium they want, while letting larian make expansions to add more content, npcs, models and maps for use in the editor.
>>721281115 The cough time wasn't exactly normal customer behavior
>>721281632But Act 3 is massive.
Its a D&D game that came out during a time where new D&D fans will obsess over any modern D&D product and only interact with D&D on repeat
>>721281314Two types of players, am I right? I hear ya bro. But what I will say in defense of act 3 is the itemization is still as fun as ever at least, Balduran's Giantslayer, Duellist's Prerogative, Helm of Balduran. Getting the last piece that made your build feel complete is just euphoric.
>>721281748WotC actively prevented that because they're trying to shill their proprietary VTT like, Larian completely was up for it
>>721279758I think just ACT 3 in any game is a curse looking at you expedition 33
>>721277960>>721278909I am too much of a brainlet and casual to get into understand the gameplay and DND mechanics
>>721281748Larian cut ties with Hasbro/wotc because they're legitimately a fucking awful company to work with. Larian wanted that, but wotc are fucking awfulThey had to release the mod tools nerfed and tell players "Hey sorry our mod tools can't do X Y or Z, and you BETTER NOT enable this option or it will make the mod tools able to be good again but DO NOT do it!" because wotc wanted people to use their now defunct proprietary VTT
Funnily enough there's plenty of random streams of it on twitch, tiktok, youtube, plenty people playing 2-4 player coop, etc.
I really want to play this but I am too dumb to pick a class and just dive in
>>721282293don't forget that they were nickle'n diming their VTT ridiculously, you had to pay for individual character options to be able to use themroll20 might have been worse technically but you don't have to engage in WotC level greed to use it
>>721281905Can't agree more on both things
>>721277863Its a game for women, redditors, and faggots. Sadly there are a lot more of them playing video games than you would think. This is like their once in a lifetime ultimate slop
>>721277960Act 2 is too short. Act 3 has pacing issues and the main villains except for Ketheric aren't very compelling. The whole mindflayer parasite thing starts getting old at the end of Act 2. The main cast suffers from main character syndrome with how unique their backstories are and don't feel like actual DnD characters starting at level 1. Way too many fucking magic items that add extra effects.
>>721282014>>721282293The only thing keeping shitters of the coast afloat are the money launderers and smugglers paying MTG aren't they
>>721282270most people just look up and copy broken builds. After that they get more comfortable with winging it and finally get to understanding the details.
>>721281115>It had all the telltale signs of a trash fire.You sounds like one of those Microsoft executives that chose to delay BG3 on XBOX in favor of Starfield. LOL everyone that was in the early access knew that BG3 was going to be a masterpiece. I am starting to think that a lot of those corporates don't do their research properly and just go on feels.
>>721282857Every mtg set instantly and automatically sells out. It does not matter what crossover slop they make (they dont make non-crossover slop anymore), it sells out immediately so that people can re-sell the cards to each other.
>>721283000I've heard the spiderman set isn't doing as hot.
>>721282921BG3 is super easy if you know the game's mechanics, you don't need a broken build. You can beat the game with meme builds that turn your Tav into a clown.
>>721279758Fuck off retard, Act 3 only looks """bad""" in comparison to the masterpiece that is Act 1 and 2. Act 1 and 2 are 11/10, Act 3 is an 8.5/10
>>721283193Actually this.
>>721282134Play it with a friend, roll a simple, humble fighter, give yourself a tiny bit of charisma so you aren't a complete reject. The game can still be played in a simple way, a lot of people prefer it that way actually.
>>721283334intended for>>721282270
>>721283193Pacing is everything and ACT 3 is a brick fucking wall. Tanks the whole game.
>>721277960Game gets worse as it goes on. Act 1 is far better than Act 2. Act 2 is short but still noticeably better than 3. Act 3 is disappointing and obviously cobbled together and there will never be updates to fix it. Another flaw is the level 12 cap combined with the XP curve. If you do the side quests and explore (as most people would do) you hit level 12 very early on into act 3. You shouldn't be hitting max level with a ton of content left. Either raise the level cap or make it so you get levels slower, but that would also require rebalancing a bunch of encounters.Overall though it is very fun and I like it quite a bit. I haven't played the game since release, I feel like I might go back and play it again soon because they probably fixed a lot of bugs, added a new difficulty mode, and classes.
Finished my fourth playthrough this morning, this time with friends. It's genuinely good and fun, and seeing one of them experience the game fresh made me really happy.
>>721283451shut up you retarded subhuman faggot
This game is only for the most söy faggots. Everyone that likes this shit was bullied.
>>721280072If does have quite a pesky wokie attitude even beyond that gay shit, so you'll need some patience. Or just get the no-alphabet modBG1&2 aren't required at all, but you should give them a shot some time anyway.
>>721283681i bench 300lbs and like this game. I have more muscles in one quad than you have in your body
>>721283795>i lift heavy objects to cope with my insecuritiesoonga boonga tier brain
>>721283795And you were bullied for being a faggot and that's all you'll ever be
>>721283542A full playthrough with friends was such an amazing experience. Really felt like we were on an adventure in some other world. I'll always remember it.
>>721284043>>721284173Ill bane snap both of you and then kiss you
>>721284189Seeing that scene: How many modern CRPGs can even be assed to give you some little XP drip for finding out-of-the-way spots?
>>721277960Larian being a shitty DM, which is a bit of a cop out answer because it encompasses a lot of things.>completely nonsensical house rules like 1/short rest cantrips>asinine gotchas like waiting for you to walk over of a trap before giving you a perception check>writing that flat out does not make any sense when you think about it for more than half a second like when you can make Vlaakith give herself a 33% chance of never using the most useful spell in existence again because you hurt her feefees and killing you with any of the innumerable other methods at her disposal is apparently asking too much>FUCKING CHOO CHOO MOTHERFUCKER ALL ABOARD THE RAILROAD EXPRESS (I know it's a videogame but that doesn't excuse shit like Thorm getting a 5 minute cutscene in the middle of your fight on top of MT where you sit there with your thumb in your ass regardless of whether you're about to kill him in one hit or not)Then you have the flat out mistakes and bad code that leads to things like >Medium Armor Master feat literally giving you LESS AC in certain armors>Warlock's Book of Ancient Secrets invoc lying to your face about you being able to transcribe rituals like you can in the tabletop>enemies being able to make ranged attacks into the Darkness spell despite EXPLICITLY saying that they can'tAnd finally fuck you, "gay shit" is a valid complaint because it was added in as a pure marketing stunt that gave this game way more attention than it deserved and ensured a free army of internet retards to defend it at a moment's notice any time anyone made a valid complaint against it because suddenly now it's a culture war battleground and if you hate something that's proudly gay you must be a disgusting incel which somehow invalidates everything you could ever say.
>>721277960Everything after act1 felt rush, you've done nearly all interaction you can with your companions in act1.Shitty lazy stuff like entering the brothel in act3 and all you get is a black screen.
>>721282798Not to mention your first few encounters at lvl 1 include a fucking CAMBRIAN and like 6 intellect devourers. Then a level later you can go fight an entire cave of phase spiders (that don't phase) plus their matriarch.Larian wrote themselves into a corner by starting off everything so bombastic. Where do you go from there in a way that doesn't make everything gay and a slog?women were a mistake
>>721284189Probably the best way to play it. Avoids much of the shit character writing.
>>721287295>(that don't phase)?
>>7212779605E
The game is a coop game. Half the big reviewers for this game played it with friends, and most people still do it to this day.
>>721287404The character writing is good tho, for the most part.
>>721279758You youngsters. Back in the day, there were point and click adventures as far as the eye could see (which wasn't far in 800x600) and they all had a last third that was dogshit. I assume it's just caused by crunch.
>>721287460They don't phase, nigga. They teleport. Not the same thing whatsoever.
>>721280434>The game really isn't wokeAnon, you don't have to lie just because this is the internet.
>>721289026Even today a lot of games have a really awfully made third acts. See Elden Ring and its DLC. There are some stand outs sure but doesn't detract from how the entire experience could be summed up with "I just want to get this shit over with".
>>721287460Teleporting is not phasing. Someone at Larian read nothing but the last three words of the 5e phase spider statblock and decided to give their BG3 counterparts teleportation (literally just repurposed Misty Step) instead of actual Ethereal phasing. Either that or they were just too lazy to spend 10 minutes pouring over their spaghetti code to implement a simple toggle.
>>721280072i got it on sale and the character creator pissed me off so bad i uninstalled i was just in a bad mood, ill try again soon
>>721277960I hate the capeshit writing + characters.I could forgive most things if they nailed the writing but they suck.
>>721289479kek, what ticked you off so bad about character creation?
down down down by the river
IT WAS BEAMDOG'S TURN
>>721281115I remember dreading it because the Divinity games are full of "guy who won't stop shouting Monty Python quotes at the table" level RPG writing. Just insufferable every time it tries to be funny, which is too frequently for how bad it is. The writing in BG3 is nothing special but I'm still amazed they managed to reign in their worst impulses, because it never actively detracts from the game like it does in Divinity.
Larian should work with paizo on a pf2 game.
>>721277863Are you neurologically impaired, my fellow homosapien ? I may have been distracted by silksong but nevertheless I am in the middle of my 5th playthrough of this *clears throat* 'goated' rpg and will return soon.
You are a schizo /v/ mod making your own spam threads to simulate board activity and keep the Tencent checks coming
>>721279758>for some reasonIt's their development style. They keep endlessly working and reworking the first part of their game, then make the 2nd part and run out of time towards the end.
>>721282134I feel like people who say that didn't properly understand/think about things.
>>721277960The main game is a slog. I got through it once, which means it did its job, but I always drop it in other playthroughs. They should just have a dungeon crawling mode with no story and a randomly generated dungeon where you level up faster and can really experience all classes, subclasses, and multiclasses. There's just too many different varieties of that but not enough varieties in the story. Some of the story consequences are huge, but you're still going through the same three acts and doing almost the same thing.
>>721277863I guess I'm just aged out of fantasyslop. I liked Div: OS 1-2 but I'm not even mildly interested in BG3
>>721290175the lack of options honestly, insanely bad for an RPG where that is half the point the premades look cool but it affected story supposedly so i wanted to do my own guy
I only played it once, but i want to replay it some day. Same with Divinity 2 and Pathfinder WOTR.
>>721277863>Single playerI mean its not but go off, king
I think DOS3 will be their best game. Being Baldur's Gate or DnD in general isn't what made it what it is imo. If they just make DOS3 without shitty magic armor and lighten up on painting the ground with elements, it will be even better than BG3.
>>721289148It isn't, unless you're the type of dweeb who considers Dragon's Dogma wokeshit.
>>721277960demonic and degenerate piece of shit writing and story that glorifies and encourages zoophilia.
>>721294357>encourages zoophiliahol uptell me more
>>721294054BG3 is a little too quirk chungus. I don't remember BG2 being that way but I don't think it fits, where it might fit better in a DivOS3
>>721277863>he playded multiplayer trash sloplol lmao wwwwww
>>721277863Couldn't even finish this game, it just feels like an unrewarding slog.I also hate the D&D system where you have such limited use of your major spells. Divinity did it right.
>>721277863I'm not sure who plays it. A lot of people I know were playing it when it came out, but most of them didn't finish it and then that was that. Somehow it's still alive but you can't find any streams or any discussion of it online.
>>721277960This game has no business being 150 fucking gigabytes
>>721277960turn based, aka boring af
>>721277863It's a GOAT.
>>721277960kitchen sink adventure. the story doesn't have a concrete theme, it's just a series of vignettes coming one after the other that represent the "best hits" of a standard tabletop DND game. it's the marvel movies of CRPGs.
>>721277863Yeah lmao I'm sure, they DEFINITELY paid for 2 fucking years of bots. Yup, for sure. Retard.
>>721295561You actually articulated my biggest issue pretty well. Other than not really caring about any of the characters presented in the game.
>>721277960>no one pointed out the atrocious combat system and abomination that was 5e and itemizationSometimes I forgot this is a video game board, gameplay seems unimportant.
>>721285231I'm going to argue against the gay shit, specifically because it's a well known joke that Bards seduce EVERYTHING in real D&D. Dragons, mimics, BBEGs, you name it, a Bard will try to seduce it, regardless of gender/species, so expecting a black male half-demon to bang a black male tiefling or bear druid or whatever isn't that far out of the realm of normalcy.
>>721277960level 12 being the highest, I lose interest in an RPG after hittinh the level cap because there is no point in doing side quests and other shit if I'm not getting stronger
>>721277863See? all you had to do was to add bear sex to the game.And i bet it would break the 100k barrier if you could top the bear as well.
>>721277863it's honestly really fun to just replay for the combat. the story is average at best, but I have a lot of fun replaying through the battles with varying classes with friends and mods.
>>721277863Because it's just that good.Can kill all the faggots too. Astarion is OK for a faggot though.
>>721277863People were just psyopped into believing it's good
>>721277863i mean, i'm still playing it sincerely. i'm actually on my second playthrough of the year with some new mods right now. i used mods to make a Minthara companion for use in Act 1, and an Aylin companion to join the party after the Act 2 finale. seeing both of them in lighting environments i've never seen them in before is awesome.
>>721296181I think his VA put me more off of his character than anything. IIRC we did a bunch of press where it was a bunch of >me me me me me, it's all about meCalm down bud, you're only just a voice actor.
>>721296308did you mod some boobs onto karlach? very nice.
>>721289026Monkey Island is fucking dope, not the new goyslop gfx one though.Grim Fandango is also kino.
>>721277863i gotta reinstall this
>>721279324You can fuck up act3 and miss half the shit by killing that guy early. You miss the robot factory and the submarine part.
Grim that people call BG3 a rpg, ME3 had deeper mechanics and choices
>>721296701the game where you chose your color filter for the ending? hardly.
>>721296401surprisingly, i didn't. loli just have a face swap for her with red eyes instead of yellow-orange ones, and a glamour that hides the metallic rivets and exhaust ports that normally decorate her body. the outfit is Minsc's regular camp clothes.
>>721296701Grim that faggots think red green or blue is a choice on any level, none of ME's choices made any long term difference besides who was alive and fuck whoever said Wrex dying was canon
>>721296701Mass Effect 3 is also almost 15 years old... can't exactly blame people for being excited about a new, comperable experience. It's not like BioWare are making better RPGs today.
>>721277960>The UI being a dogshit downgrade from Divinity 2: OS>Lacks an artstyle, is generally not pleasant to look at (I have a 4070, and even on high the game looks "just okay" most of the time, and the text is always far too small for my shitty eyes)>Party members having far, far less depth than those in Divinity 2: Original Sin, and I felt starved for substance with them, as the only notable thing about Gale was the fact that he kept coming onto my Human Male Fighter increasingly harder each time I politely declined, just trying to be a broAlso, I left a negative review immediately after finding out the angel was a lesbian, and I don't think I'll ever change it.I detest dykeshit beyond words.
>>721296701Factually untrue
>>721277863Reset the counter. I think we didn't even make two days without cope this time.
>>721277960>What do you think are the biggest flaws of this game? Inb4 gay shitTurn based and not real time combat.
>>721293529Gustave is best, everyone is shit. No debate
>>721277863slash vee slash told me this was flavor of the month, 2 years ago. Why was vee wrong?
>>721296701L ragebait
>>721287295I honestly don't like the parasite story and feel it really messes up their pacing. In universe, that parasite problem could probably be cured pretty easily. Same goes with the Chosen. You have a fucking Elder Brain under control and you choose to take over Baldur's Gate with some weird ass plan? Oh and I hate the lame ass Gith. Stupid "we iz special" race.
>>721295561This is correct. The entire game is just DnD tropes.
>>721297263what a fag. i was jumping out the gym when Aylin threw her helmet off and fell to her knees in front of Isobel. you new age niggas who don't like to watch girls flirt and kiss are fuckin' weird.
>>721277960the story is "movie reddit nigger tier doesn't read books" quality - it's designed for people under the age of 25 or adults that are immature - the gameplay is mid/low - the world is amazing looking but that's it so it's not really playable for me
are there mods with good content?
>>721277960Action you take before cutscene-triggering encounters completely fuck up everything because the game has no way to account for what you just did. Either your action is nullified or the NPC ignores that you just killed his friend.
>>721281203probably release more troon-nigger worship games
>>721284189If you haven't played DOS2 yet, do it. Played that game with friends and I loved it as well.
>>721290160You probably think JRPGs have good writing you subhuman retard. Kys>>721289479Kys you fucking whiny faggot
I hope they keep making the same type of game, with high environmental interactivity and those elemental interactions. It's neat as fuck and it really makes a difference between the encounter designs of this and something like Pathfinder. I've got more hours and 3+ playthroughs in Pathfinder WotR and most non-boss encounters are not memorable at all, just trash to sift through.
>>721290160all characters are amazingkill yourself troonie
>>721277960gay shit is the biggest flaw
>>721300273So above your reading level then, subhuman retard?
>>721300426There are hardly mod with ANY content yet.99% are more subclasses, spells, some crafting of over-powered weapons etc.I think the most "content" added so far are in extensions of the romances and ez replays for their scenes by autism-maxxed waifufags
>>7212779601) Personally I didn't like being forced to work with the emperor due to the tadpole (in the beginning). Like, he immediately protects you and does his best to help feels a bit like the game is forcing you to choose his side. Also, what was the point of spending so much time in making a fucking dream guardian when it changes to a fucking squid anyways?2) One thing they could have done better is the scrolls. It feel a bit overpowered and unbalanced to have anyone be able to just use them. You would expect magic classes to be the main users of scrolls but it's basically the opposite, anyone BUT magic classes benefit from them mostly.3) Mystra is a dumb whore and there is no fucking lesson to be learned. > "boohoo this powerful artifact that could absolutely rape my ass is too dangerous for mortals to understand"> ignores the fact that she was a mortal too and got killed several times. > She also ascended and gets angry with gale for doing so
>>721277863This is how I feel about soulslike garbage. They're worse than Pokemon.
>>721295561>the entire game should have one common overarching theme like some baby nursery rhymefuck off retard
>>721301843i really hope some projects doing dnd modules on it to actually become real, now mods are mostly horny shit
>>721277863It's not though, I play regularly. Coming from someone who hates divinity it's a kino game and one of the only good CRPGs post MotB
>>721302320>Coming from someone who hates divinitycould have just said you were retarded, same effect
>>721295561Its incredible how some of the people so scared of being given freedom they think game having no theme if they are givent ability to choose how everything plays with control over story turns and companions. Nigger. YOU ARE THE THEME. THE CHOICES YOU MAKE. THE COMPANIONS YOU TAKE. THEY SET THEME OF THE GAME.you are complaining about freedom of choice and ability to affect outcomes, absolutely braindead.
>>721296308Damn, always a shock to see Mintharas face in vanilla. Larian really punished EA players for not liking their wokiewriters pets
>>721277960The main cast of characters isnt interesting
>>721277863it has mass appeal so even your mom can enjoy itits extremely slow and takes a while to complete and has high replayability so people play it for 1000s hrs
>>721304778Gathering tools and allies and ridding the city of any lingering threats prior to the final battle seems pretty on-point.
>>721277960I find Chapter 2 very exhausting. It's like Demon's Souls: Oppressive and bleak to the point where going back into it is difficult for me to play because it's so joyless. I have to speedrun it in as few sessions as possible.I also find Chapter 3 very aimless. It's like, the army is on your doorstep but you're still doing completely unimportant sidequests like the Anti-Hag Coalition and the thing about the mummy. Instead of being like the ending of Dragon Age Origins or the one quest in Baldur's Gate II where you grab a bunch of side characters like Drizz't and some others you've built relationships with to team up, the entire time spent in Baldur's Gate just meanders around. It's not focused on preparing for the invasion and undoing the machinations of the Chosen of the Dead Three; even though that's the main quest, the various sidequests are unconnected to it. You don't, for example, build a relationship with the Temple of Umberlee to get intel and access to the underwater prison. You don't get free Harpers from taking down the Temple of Shar to help undermine the Mechanical Watch factory. You get nothing from the Flaming Fists that you help in any encounter. It's just a bunch of unconnected stupid timewasting bullshit after a very, very focused chapter with clear goals and where every action you took was a step to resolving the ultimate challenge of that chapter.Sure, a bunch of NPCs show up at the last battle, and that's pretty damn satisfying. But there were multiple story climaxes leading up to that point where it would've been damn satisfying to see that things you were doing in Act 3 were contributing to the downfall of Gortash. There were different points where you those allies could've been brought in and used, instead of putting all of them in a final battle where their skillsets aren't necessarily useful and where you're so powerful you don't even need them.
>>721305212>ridding the city of any lingering threatsI think that's a mistake. The game's story tries to portray the Absolute's armies as the ultimate danger to the city (though we as the players and the party know the Absolute is already in the city). The quest writing should've supported that and pushed that everything you were doing was to end the danger of the Absolute.
>>721303329More like they tried far too hard to make them all interesting, but ended up doing the opposite with their redditquirks.
>>721305452chapter 2 is not limited to shadowlandsgith monastery are chapter 2so as shars temple which is actually fucking sucksbut its well noter that whole spirit of part 3 contradicts city being sieged they should have went way of mass effect where everyone is in hard denial and theres a conspiracy to silence everyone about approaching army
>>721306446Gith Monastery isn't part of chapter 2. It's just the epilogue of Chapter 1 or the prologue of Chapter 2. And we know that because despite the Light of Lathander being a perfect introductory tool for the Shadowlands, the game forces a hard long rest before you can go into the Shadowlands with it, meaning it's mostly useless.
>>721306728bullshit, game forces conclussion of 1st act if you travel to monastery/shadowlandsact1 is what were in the beta : initial zone + underdark including grymforgeeverything else is act2

>>721308260Stop pretending this isn't based. I hate this endless milk the cow dry bullshit every dev does nowadays. Nobody asked for Starfield DLC, and I'm someone who liked Starfield. I'd prefer if all resources just went into ES6.
>>721308483whether is made money or not, no one wants more of this
or this
>>721308608wanna bet?
>>721277960Devs making Viconia ugly out of sheer spite.
>>721308680i don't need to. they never reported sales because it's a botted chinese flop
>>721281115I'm actually surprised because from the EA I would have never thought the game would end up becoming a viral sensation.Sometimes you just catch fire at the right time and it helps that they made an amazing game.
>>721308758Oh, you are that retard
>>721307946Funny but in BG3 the nigras are just peopleIn KCD2 they went full wewuz
>>721308882I wasn't surprised at all on the other handI played through the EA when they finished Act 1 and just straight up told my friends it's gonna be the next big thing
>>721298276What a gay ass fucking post
>>721309093The only thing wrong about Aylin and Isobel is them not 69ing then and thereYou done fucked up, Larian
>>721298276>Thought you finally get some do-gooder alternative to Shart>Nooooope! Have a mandatory yuri couple who is not even really joining party but adopts your camp as their private lovenest so you can be reminded we made lose out getting another cleric AND another LII am all for hot lesbians, but that whole setup still seems plain developer spite of fem frequency proportions. And the assimar is not even hot in vanilla.
>>721309956>Have a mandatory yuri couple who is not even really joining party but adopts your camp as their private lovenestI will now buy your game
>>721308637riveting
>>721309956If something sucks it's how much of a jobber Aylin actually is, but I think some of it may actually be intentional
>>721277960>What do you think are the biggest flaws of this game?the tranny shit, act 3 is bad, they give you too much gear/loot and it seems like hasbro made them make the writing gayer/more boring to fit with the film/general company feel
>>721306446the gith shit is technically still act 1. you don't get the achievement until you enter the shadowlands >>721305452I liked act 2
>>721311293>it seems like hasbro made them make the writing gayerThat's 100% certain because binary gender stuff was still there in EA
>>721310971Don't see how you can convince yourself that part is any fun before at least adding the sex mod, but you do you
>>721311759I meant gay as in shitty and "safe edgy", not gay as in faggot shit, but yeah I think hasbro made them add the faggot shit too. Like I think the lack of racism and the wyll changes were hasbro
>>721312084>wyllEh still not sure if someone at Larian is secretly based as hell, but his clown-show during EA versions was memorable at least.
>>721311824They're pretty cuteLacking in content though
>>721312368I swear some writers just make the black characters gay as shit to be funny. Jacob's writer in mass effect wrote Grunt and wyll's writer wrote Lae'zel.
>>721306880>Game is a citywide trash fire cataclysm>"I guess people don't like D&D anymore haha, we're shelving it forever folks!"
can every character quit trying to fuck me pls
>>721306880Siege of Dragonspear baffles me, not just in the myriad ways they demonstrate some of the worst storytelling in CRPGs, but from the fact it rendered the base game unplayable for a week from sheer volume of bugs.
>>721313286Just give Wyll his space at the party like he asked, man, like what even is the problem?
>>721277863Yeah good point. Shouldn't a Single-player RPG only have one person playing it?
>baldur's gate 3 still generates seethe to this day.goddamnit thats how you know its a good game
>>721313286>Gale wants to fuck you if you're a good Guy>Astarion wants to fuck you if you're a cunt>Shart only wants to fuck you if you woo her>Wyll only wants to fuck you if you Go out of your way to suck his balls >Lae'zel is a whore, just wants to smashYou have to Go out of your way to have everyone want to fuck you. It will mostly be the nerdy lonely dumped wizard or the sex fiend g*th.
>>721312770Was not even talking about the gay shit, just his introduction scene at the grove gate alone was a hoot>splattered himself to death jumping from the wall for ~3 versions>gets instagibbed by goblin for ca three moreThey try adding the aid spell or w/e to the hornblow. They tried adding feather fall. Nope, he died like a bitch every single time.All that effort in the desperate attempt to show him in some roguish dynamic entry like a smarmy pirate in the ancient b/w movies that your grandma creamed herself about in a cinema chair
>>721277960Act 3 is a fucking slog. Also there should be no level cap
>>721281527Whats your favorite class?
>>721313710It especially generates seethe among other developers.
>>721313984lmao, I was just playing on like explorer because I wanted to see if some mods worked and he managed to fucking die in that scene
>>721277960Dnd 5e

>>721277960I hate the inventory.
>>721281007>>721281007And what crpgs do you play anon
>>721277960Act 3 feels bloated and empty at the same time. Too much content but it's all shit, orin/gortash are less compelling villains than Ketheric and you hit the level cap as soon as you enter the city. The companion quests are also weird and some of them have really unsatisfying conclusions.>Ascend Astarion>Becomes the most powerful vampire in existence >in gameplay terms this means 1d10 necrotic damage
>>721277863You underestimate the power of women sitting in the CC making several dozen different characters and going through the same Astarion and Gale convos over and over again
>>721314352No one can have the scale of BG3. It was a giant money sink for the CCP in a bid for the D&D license. Which they failed to get. A literal decade of wasted time and money on a crpg of all things. Also why China will never become a superpower.
>>721314606Would Astarion be considered more powerful than Strahd von Zarovich?
>>721314631This but also guys who just want to see their various dream waifus go through the same adventure a dozen times.The cosmetic mods for this game is pretty cool. Not as extensive as bethesda games mind you but it's quite something.

>>721314846>CR 15Yes absolutely.
>>721280072>>721280072Bro there's two mods you can install real quick with the mod manager that gets rid of the gay and muh diversity. But be aware one of them give female dwarves beards because they're dwarves. Also some characters stay 'diverse' but only partially, like instead of being brlack one is an arab but it makes sense because that's where he's from. Makes the god spawn angel thing a dude so no lesboThe seperetly there's a mod that makes wyll and pops not black .But yeah it's probably the best RPG I've ever played and the best cRPG, and I've been doing this shit since 1998
>>721315018amazing it's been 2 years and you still think your boogeyman exists, schizo /v/ modkeep reporting posts for spam when you know damn well you making these threads is
>>721314846>astariondies in 1 round, maybe two if you max tadpole powers.Strahd is what? Lev 20 fighter/necromancer and a patriarch-age vamp? And then there are still darklord power-ups
>>721277960Everything in the game feels slow, the loading and optimization are terrible. There are too many missable items and bugged quests, bugged menus, forced replay value due to the overwhelming number of things you can easily miss. The rewards for being evil are terrible, and the inventory/items organization and loot system are arguably some of the worst in the entire game industry. You need to play extremely casually to enjoy this game, because if you're a tryhard min-maxer or hoarder, it will be a nightmare and one of the worst gaming experiences.
>>721315089>you still think your boogeyman existsHow can you even write this shit as if you haven't spammed literally the same images and literally write the same posts in any related BG3 thread.It's not like your hiding it, it's actually fucking amazing how you dedicated yourself to ruining yourself over BG3. keep it up because I know you're actually killing yourself over it.

>friendless loserSad. Playing this game solo sounds boring. Playing with 4 fags is fun.
>>721302619>dude just make up shit up on top of things actually written, you aren't supposed to judge the setting or the characters that are very obviously thereby this logic skyrim is the single best rpg experience, since you can taylor it into damn near anything you want
>>721277863b-but /v/ said it was chinese bots! g-go woke go broke!
>>721315834Skyrim plays like shit regardless of how many mods you slap on itBG3's gameplay has no major issues, aside from the usual retarded tg grognards who constantly screech about 5e (even though BG1-2 are objectively MUCH less complex in literally every regard)
>>721314939>The cosmetic modsI am surprised individual bodies for every origin companion does not seem to be a thing yet. Thought someone would have expanded on unique tav to get that by now.

>>721277960Game should have been 4 Acts, (Act 3 should have been split between two Acts), with the new Act 3 taking place in the current area's of Baulder's Gate and Act 4 taking place in the Upper City. Why the fuck was Gortash, who is supposed to be the new king just chilling at the city gate?Act 3 should have been been focusing on Orin and Act 4 on Gortash
>>721316760no one wants 4 acts of this, swen>>721308608>>721308637your studio is both a farce and a sham
>>721316298And it's fucking especially odd that it gets a steady 400k downloads a day. Shit modding community, shit mods, and it's getting hundreds of thousands of DL's a day. Makes an anon wonder, huh.
>>721315967i've no particular qualms about the gameplay, i speak of story and its various elementscircling back to "kitchen sink adventure", the story simply deserve all the cocksucking, it's just low powerlevel chumps who can't handle a game without full voiceover, they see the meteoric rise in writing quality compared to d:os2for all the similar and different flaws of kingmaker, i can come up with mechanical changes to make the whole "fisher king" gimmick work better, but bg3 is so eclectic that the most coherent throughline is "absolute power corrupts absolutely" as it relates to bhaal and illithids and rpg xp in generali think the inevitable AND NOW IT'S TIME TO SAVE THE WORLD plot was exectued exceptionally poorly, all the little adventures beforehand didn't feel like they were really relevant AT ALL
>chang so mad, he had this post deletedlmfao keep lending credibility to the ccp astroturf that bg3 is
>>721316465Because there are nixed companions that they planed to add until the last moment who also were never part of any promo shit.A werewolf shortstack bard was definitely planed for and I would not even be surprised if she is still buried in the files.Also during EA Larian claimed we'd only get the evil/neutral aligned companions until v1.0 and the shiny do-goodiers would only be added in full release

>>721316972>"game of the year">china on all award panels>Everyone who actually plays games never heard of itBanking on the Critical Role community representing America is so CCP
>>721316836Nah, that part makes sense. 90% of normies admitted to barely playing the game and only really doing dress-up, especially when it comes to modding.what I find fucking stupid about it is all the emphasis on dress-up...In a game where upgrading your gear is meant to happen throughout the game
>>721316921that's fair. i have to remind myself that i ducked a lot of potential EA bitterness by not paying any attention to BG3 whatsoever between the announcement and release dates until like two weeks before it came out. i avoided a lot of the early Cyberpunk bitterness in a similar way. i didn't pay much attention to it between announcement and full release, and i didn't play it at all until this year. so i have pretty much no frame of reference for when it was ass except vague memories of ActMan's takedown video.
>>721317016try the old panels from her or sifting the larian forums. She was even named already, I just can't remember it

>>721317016Shadowheart was also going to be a werewolf at one point. i'm pretty sure her Dad still is. that's why there's a mod on Nexus that gives Shadowheart a werewolf transformation ability.
>>721316760IDK maybe. Act 3 lacks direction but I am not sure if splitting it would help there.
>>721317027>people who play videogames vote for it>a bunch of retarded console normies who play nothing but COD get madThe crit role/ttrpg community is NOT why BG3 got so bigThat community largely died off by now, critical role hasn't been relevant in years
>>721277863>singleplayerYou know it's multiplayer right?
>>721317286>>people who play videogames vote for itlollmaochang, this isn't china. you can't just lie your way out of everything
>>721277863It's multiplayer too. I know a friend that's been doing a multiplayer playthrough for like 2 years because their schedules don't match up much. They finally made it to Act 3 a few months ago.
>>721316760i don't think there's enough material to do 4 Acts. Act 3 already feels a little anemic, like Larian planned to punch it up for the Enhanced Edition before that got cancelled thanks to WotC prickery. they would have to write a whole new quest, location, and boss fight to replace whichever of the Chosen you didn't kill in Act 3 if they moved Gortash to Act 4.

>>721317570Sure okBecause china is sponsoring the awards and goading them into using chinese funded platforms so they can cheat.Chang we have been over this for years. We know you are cheating. You know you are cheating. Just give it up.
>>721317286i've said this before, but you're right. Baldur's Gate 3 is huge because BioWare fans haven't had any good fucking food since like 2014. there was a massive power vacuum in the RPG space, with fans who were dying to dive into and praise another long-form narrative-driven RPG. every time BioWare failed, the rubber band was pulled tighter, until finally BG3 came out and it was catapulted to mega stardom by that accumulated momentum. BG3 has recieved all the praise and gratitude BioWare fans have WANTED to have a reason to heap onto BioWare for the last 10 years. and they deserve it. i'm relieved somebody else finally picked up the torch.

For real though the game isn't singleplayer, and the only reason dos 2 sold was because of multiplayer
Violates multuiple /v/ and general rules. Embarassing for the 4chan moderation staff that these threads are allowed to exist
>>721317064But consistently around 400k DL's every 24 hours, for at least months on end? Little variance? That is extremely fucking abnormal. Usually, there are lulls in between larger mods, updates, game updates, etc. But this one is consistently about 400k, every day, for at least the last 3 or so months, when literally nothing came out, nothing worthwhile released, and they even had their marketing run on the 2 year post release day, all not changing the daily download count. Don't you find that extremely odd, even with the brainless npc's attaching to it?
>>721317096>EA bitternessMh guess I did get a dose of that, just by seeing what things they IMO totally messed or simply discarded. But on the other hand seeing a game evolve before my eyes , noticing at least the front-end changes to each version and getting a feel for what the devs will prioritize over every version is its own sort of fun to me. EAs are risky and can easily burn you out on a game before its even half done, but I am usually not regretting the few that I bother with

The game undeniably peaks in-between Act 2 and 3, when you're at camp after the githyanki attack and you walk over to look over the cliffs and see Baulder's Gate in the distance, at night, with the massive city lighten up, knowing that's where you're headed and the massive quest that awaits you.Then suddenly this song starts playing https://youtu.be/-5oVZjtm4YY?si=jRVRIeBSmU5pJnkyAll this just after discovering the plot with the Elder Brain and defeating one of the 3 main antagonists. That's how you do adventure and anticipation. Shame the game doesn't fully live up to the anticipation, but still decent.

It's a multiplayer game that is basically a interactive movie. With different playthrough possibilities.
It's a Chinese scam and you're a fucking idiot if you fell for it. Doubly so if you're in TikTok and indoctrinated

Act 2 is worse than act 3.Shitty dark overworld, dumb temple filled with "puzzles", and that one fight at the ground floor of moonlight tower that takes forever due to the number of combatants.

>>721277960CombatWritingGame overall
>>721277960Enhanced Encounters and Additional Enemies + More Minibosses made me realize there's a lot of unused space in the base game that can be filled with more combat encounters. more Magic Items made me realize there's a lot of room for additional, unique bonus effects. i wish more subclasses made it in. i wish Minthara was up to the same quality standard as Shadowheart and Gale. i wish Act 3 felt more complete. i wish you could recruit one of the Goblin women as a full ccompanion. i wish Isobel and Aylin could travel with the party without mods. that's about it, though, and some of those are admittedly nitpicky.
>>721321271oh, and i wish the base game allowed to to grow to Level 20. i've only ever played with mods that unlock those additional 8 levels, so sometimes i forget that the base game only goes to 12. i just entered Act 3 at Level 10 or 11, i think.
>game goes on sale>new schizo meltdownsso it goes
I played Rogue Trader right after BG3 and it felt like night and day.Larian games just feel fake and soulless, something that a dumb egirl would play in GTA or a movie, not a real gameOwlcat games are far from perfect but they can easily stand shoulder to shoulder with classic CRPGs by how they feel
>>721277960The evil path sucks absolute shit, forced to play as a murder hobo, or stupid evil. Lose out on a majority of the content with no alternatives and all evil endings are retarded and out of character.
>>721277960The problem with all larian games. Act 3 fucking blows and the game balance explodes late act 2
>>721321823Don't forget that the game just kills you if you do something wrong. There's basically only one good goy path and everything else is just for show.
>>721278246He's so based bros..
>>721321739i feel the exact opposite way. i played Rogue Trader after Baldur's Gate 3, and it felt like stepping down to a mobile game. returning to WotR felt similar, but at least after playing BG3 it's been easier to imagine what Owlcat scenes could look like if they weren't stuck on Android and iOS.based on your post though, you're probably like 10-15 years older than i am, and remember when Tetris was the pinnacle of the medium.
>>721277960characters could be more attractive
>>721321920I just want more games that let you have some more nuanced evil routes. WOTR isnt perfect but I can play a pragmatic evil commander, a more thoughtful lich, and if I want I can go all out retard evil as a demon. Shame even owlcat took the stupid evil pill when writing Rogue Trader heretic path
>buy the game>attempt to play it>drop it>make a new characters>attempt to play>drop it>start a campaign with a friend>drop it>start another campaign with friend>drop it againI have never made it out of act 1 or even past the first area after you crash land. I, however, played through all of Divinity OS 2 with a friend
>>721321823What’s your idea of a decent evil path? Because besides siding with the goblins, doing evil shit doesn’t lose you that much relevant content
>>721321739But WotR feels like shit to play?
>>721322124i did that too at the start. it's a bit of FOMO because there's a lot of shit happening and not wanting the game to end. eventually you have to power through and finish the game though.
>>721322225being evil is pretty bad in bg3, afaik they don't bother because most people don't play evil. owlcat does evil paths much better.
>>721322330We're coming up on 2 years of not playing the game. I don't think I'm ever going to finish it
>>721322225Siding with evil just doesnt make any sense as Tav.Durge is different though.
>>721321998Based on your post we're the same age and you just have shitty tasteBG3 definitely feels expensive but the actual gameplay and writing are much worse. Even relatively expensive CPRGs (like dragon age or mass effect 1) from back in the day are closer to Owlcat games than to BG3BG3 is an expensive game with beautiful packaging but it's rotten inside>>721322295Wotr and other Owlcat games are good and make you spend hundreds of hours playing them despite numerous problemsBG3 is bad despite its high quality and expensive wrapping. I honestly have never seen anyone discuss BG3 story because there isn't one. It's just bits and pieces from an early version of the game put together into something that looks like a game. If you played the early access version you'll understand what I'm talking about
>>721322427you're not missing out that much, act 1 is the best part of the game, a lot of shit falls apart in the later acts.
>>721322225Recruiting the drow Nere in the underdark, and maybe some of the other members of the cult as companions to replace losing Wyll and Karlach, since you could free them from the control using the artifact. Working more closely with Raphael maybe, taking on some help from the devils, or doing something similar to Gortash and building yourself a powerful army behind the scenes, while also working to destroy the Illithids and beating the gods to take power for yourself and your party. Also being able to "corrupt" your party members while also staying loyal to them, unlocking their potential to make yourself more powerful, e.g. Shadowheart as leader of the Sharran Cult, astarion as an elder vampire but also a loyal friend, Minthara givng you support from her drow noble house. Gale would take over the wizards tower in the city. I feel like there was a lot of room to explore a pragmatic evil route where you were working on revenge on the illithids, the triad of gods and then taking control of Baldurs Gate yourself
>>721322225>What’s your idea of a decent evil path?Rogue Trader and PathfinderJust let me be a faggot who wants power and authority instead of a typical murder hobo
>>721315018>you will never make a game so good and makes someone so mad that they willingly becomes schizophrenic and ruins their entire life over itFeels bad. The thought of making something SO incredibly successful that someone will devote their life to hating its existence and creating mental conspiracy theories just to cope that it's somehow "secretly unsuccessful" would probably provide me with a lifetime worth of dopamine.
>>721322693rogue trader was also pretty shitty with its evil paths, it keeps trying to railroad you into stupid evil murder hobo and ignores your choices. A shame since they nailed it in WOTR
The thread is just a chinese botfarm replying to itself, since Larian is a Chinese-owned company.
>>721322693the reason they do murder hobo is that's it's much cheaper to implement. having entire plotlines for evil paths that most people don't play is expensive, owlcat can do it more easily because they don't have to pay for voice acting.

>>721277863I assume OP that you're unaware of just how powerful a market "fantasy horny" is for women gamers. There's a lot of money in that, and I'm surprised more people don't cash in on it. It's largely novels. Minotaurs fucking women, fae fucking women, you name it.To say nothing of RPG autists who will replay a 100-hour minimum game over and over again if it fulfills their RPG fantasy well enough.Also, co-op. I dont' care for it, but it's apparently a pretty big thing with zoomers. Plus older couples can play it together, when normally an especially lengthy RPG might not be in the cards for some people in a relationship as they're typically single-player.
>>721279972>most games have terrible gameplay>most devs don't understand the importance of gameplay at allI wish they would...
>>721315018>>you will never make a game so good and makes someone so mad that they willingly becomes schizophrenic and ruins their entire life over itBG3 falls into the same category as trashy novels for horny housewives like Twilight, shit that is looked down upon by normal people.
>>721277863>Single playerDoes he know?
>>721322931that doesn't really negate their point thoughpeople made fun of Twlight a bit then moved onthis dude's been raging about BG3 being successful for years at this point, to the point ot creating conspiracy theory ideas that make zero monetary or logical sense. but it's /v/, so it's unfortunately going to just be a thing around here. schizos here and there.
>>721322794I think its also a problem of inadequate writers. Bethesda has the same problem, Emil can only write full on murder hobo retarded evil choices in their games.
>>721295452OG Skyrim was under 11 gigabytes

>>721323102Nah. Schizos get banned here and there, but there's nothing you can truly do to stop them as an anonymous image board because they can just ban evade, and there's zero account creation.The FF schizo and the "BG3 is a psyop" schizo have been banned several times, but they always come back.It's the tradeoff for having more free reign to post here. The start of "solutions" to limit schizos would remove the entire point of why people post on 4chan.
>>721322534i guess we value different things. all the models, animations, and particle effects in Baldur's Gate 3 blow anything i've ever seen Owlcat do outta the water. much like how i view fighting and action games, if i'm going to spend 200 hours watching characters perform the same animations over and over again, i want them to look crisp and spectacular. BG3 has that, Owlcat games don't. Owlcat companions kinda suck ass, too, for the most part. it's going to sound worse than i mean for it to, but i love that all the BG3 companions are just white people except for Karlach and Wyll. you don't see that much anymore. you can't get out of an Owlcat or BioWare tutorial anymore without picking up a couple brown niggas.
Ultra blatant woke shill thread with bots bumped for 12 hours straight because nopony is interested.
I just started the game 4 times and made a full team of custom characters. Was pretty fun.
>>721323237also the scenery. the scenery, level environments, and lighting are all fuckin' bewilderingly good. there's a reason BG3 has a photo mode and Rogue Trader doesn't even let you customize your eye color.
>>721323314Is there a better way to do that than the "create 4 instances of the game/multiplayer" trick? I haven't attempted in awhile.It's one of the few things I'm annoyed with in BG3 is the lack of an ability to create a full custom party. While you had to also do a "multiplayer" trick to create a custom party in BG1 and 2, it was far less annoying to do than the multiple instances thing.
>>721323232>Nah.Yah, Schizo Janny you were both doxxed and nakked to the board going on 2 yrs now. All because you took a check for a eurotrash crpg,If you insist on keeping this thread going for sponsor money, we will air every last bit of your dirty laundry

I am honestly shocked by the game's player retention. I keep hearing about how great the replayability is but I haven't touched the game since launch. There is just nothing pulling me back to it. The way the story plays out, the scarce combat encounters that I basically know-how how to solve because of the limited class fantasy with the companions. It all just isn't appealing for a second playthrough, too much meandering in this game and forced urgency plots are fucking tiresome
>>721277863It's not a single player RPG you retarded faggot.
Just a little under 100 more posts until you collect your 10RMB, Tencent janny! Good for you! That's 1/10th a tank of gas on your turdworld morotbike!
D:OS2 was better
>>721323806i played dos2 and don't remember anything about it. it was utterly forgettable.
>>721323749I mean if you got any ideas that doesn't involve being able to post without an account, you'll have to pass it along. Because any solution most anyone could think of would involve that, and nobody would actually want that.The schizo here and there is just part of the trade-off. Not like their posts aren't recognizable anyway (it's funny when they think their multiple posts tricks anyone, and he says "we"), it's just that people get bored and stop ignoring the schizo in whatever thread sometimes.
>>721323806>>721323827lucky you, I wish I could forget some of that bullshit writing
>>721323827Based dementia anon
>>721323806Some of the combat is a bit better, but I enjoy BG3 just have a normal Jump outside of needing to use a skill (oddly enough in terms of jumping, it's a million times better in BG3 than in actual 5e D&D).Also, I hate DOS2's MMO-style itemization.If they made a DOS3 with different itemizatino (BG3-style or something else) plus step away from the "physical/magic shields/status effects"-thing, it'd be so much better.
>>721323827surfaces, especially necrofiresummonning skills were sick, as they heavily relied on that surface gimmick, and i always want to play with my own standnumerically speaking, it's shit (like a lot of abilities are), but imp -> demon upgrade is a great way to sell that you've actually became stronger
>>721281115I knew it was gonna be big after DOS2
>>721323237>>721323389BG3 looks impressive in technical terms but is very boring and unremarkable in terms of design. It's just very forgettable.I know that Commorragh and some other places in Owlcat games don't get enough hate but they're way more interesting than anything in BG3. RT artbook is a gold mine of cool designs, while BG3 is fucking boring.>but i love that all the BG3 companions are just white people except for Karlach and WyllI don't give a shit about skin color, BG3 companions are very annoying. And they are not even close to Abelard, Pascal, or Heinrich. Even Jae and Idira are more likable characters than anyone in BG3.
>>721323872>it's just that people get bored and stop ignoring the schizo in whatever thread sometimes.at least this guy isn't nearly as bad as the FFschizo. although i think there are at least 2 in those threads
721323654so funny how you think anyone acknowledges or reads your posts. you will bump to limit as the chinese contract requires. all we do is piss in your eye over it. and you deserve it.
>>721324273I didn't think it'd be all that big, honestly.I figured it do really well in terms of DOS2 numbers.But I judged too much from that first month of Early Access. I honestly thought Starfield (kek) would draw all the eyes, and it would quietly die off except for the niche diehards, and say goodbye to cool D&D video games.Now instead, I get to say goodbye to cool D&D video games because Hasbro-WotC is horribly mismanaged and pushes away talent.
Anyone tinkered with the modtools? Can you make your own campaign(s) and shiiieeet?I used to make a lot of Neverwinter nights 1/2 custom modules back in the day, and I need another project.
So, after so many years, how many sales? Got a report maybe, finally?
>>721324370I was just explaining why the jannies obviously would never be able to delete these even if they wanted. There are several containment threads on /v/.Have a good one, schizodude
>I was just
>>721324439No clue.I heard modders talking about apparently "opening up" the mod tools so such should be possible, but I don't necessarily buy that the tools were that partially completed that they'd be as expansive as they claimed.But I'm saying that as someone who has never created a mod, so my opinion isn't worth much at all. Just a bystander that has seen some wild claims from some modding groups in other games.
>>721324550they never listen, it's pointless. dragqueen is literally a mental case. i'm sort of surprised he hasnt' died on the front lines for russia yet
>>721324439You can't, as far as I know. They had this feature back in Dos2 but no one used it so I guess they didn't bother porting it over
>>721316185Made by people with no sense of style whatsoever
>>721277960It's not immersive and lacks any kind of atmosphere
>>721315252Thanks, was gonna pick it up during the winter sale but gonna hard pass instead.
>>721324304oh yeah, the ff schizo somehow actually manages to be worse because he isn't contained to solely FF threads, like the schizo in here.although this one is starting to drip into other crpg threads unfortunately, so containment isn't working as well anymore
>>721324439afaik even adding new dialogue text is already troublesome and the guy doing the shart romance extension seems to mostly rely on cut material thats still in the files
It's crazy how Larian went down the shitter since Divine Divinity
>>721324706>You can't, as far as I know. They had this feature back in Dos2 but no one used it so I guess they didn't bother porting it overWell that sucks.>>721324621>I heard modders talking about apparently "opening up" the mod toolsWould be nice. But it would be better if Larian just made and released the tools. Would extend the game's life by orders of magnitude too.
>>721277863>looks fun>don't know shit about DnD Can a casual like me really enjoy it?
>>721325081>since Divine DivinityThey've been in the shitter since inception. Taking Tencent money to crank out a half assed attempt at yanking the D&D IP was their coup de grace. Their next game will be their worst for sue.
>>721325297It's pretty casual, but it's incredibly long (so more a matter of "do I actually want to play a long game" than difficult).It's on GOG, so can always pirate it or something in case you're not sure whether you'd like it.
>>721325297I only played DnD one time.Is a videogame, so is not like the game asks you to write the story or throw the die for it, is comparable to Xcom 2 in some aspects if that helps.I was lucky that I played it with a friend whom was like my Cicero, I mean he played the game before so it felt like having a guide without necessarily having someone spell things out.Overall unless you are the type who gets lost and feels overwhelmed by choice in open world games, then you should be fine, whatever decision you regret you can always save and load, don't expect to be able to do everything though, you have to allow room for mistake, you could make things easier by allowing bad choices/bad dice throw.
>>721325297>5ed You are the target audience, anon
>>721325297BG3 is made with casuals in mind
>>721325508>Overall unless you are the type who gets lost and feels overwhelmed by choice in open world gamesThis is actually a very good point.I love crpgs, but I almost put down DOS2 initially because of how overwhelmed I felt at first with being able to pick up almost absolutely everything and having a giant map for the entire act (I'm more used to CRPGs having contained maps you travel from one to another, and some dungeons spread out). So it felt like "too much".I still sort of wish BG3 was more spread across multiple maps just for easier compartmentalization in my head to play through, but it is what it is
>>721277863This shit has always been a psyop and I've been saying it since the beginning.>woke games are flopping lift and right>not one success story anywhere to be seen>suddenly comes a turbo-woke game in an extremely niche genre and becomes a mega hitThey just needed 1 woke success to create the illusion of wokeness not being the reason their social engineering propaganda products don't sell so they invested a lot into manufacturing one success story.This is also why the devs were very quick to say they won't expend on this game at all despite it being orders of magnitude more successful than anything they've ever done before.
>>721324280being technically impressive is important to me because video games are technological entertainment. if i want something super interesting and memorable i'll watch an anime or read a book.>the artbookthe one where you see what the game would look like if Owlcat had a real budget? yeah, it is pretty cool. if only it was a video game and not... a book...

>>721326734nta but production values is important to a lot of people. The only reason Pillars of Eternity 2 went full VA after it originally wasn't was because of DOS2's success, which was fulling voice acted.The good thing, though, is that BG3 showed publishers that if done well, there's a market for this (especially on the heels of BG3 being wildly successful), so we'll likely see some CRPGs from other devs with good production values.Owlcat with The Expanse being one. Also it's rumored that Obsidian is testing out turn-based stuff since they're going back to Pillars of Eternity 1 to add turn-based after all this time (after after 2's wasn't that good, so they'll get another crack at trying it out with their systems) so that they can eventually do a Pillars 3.
>irc chat laughing at him really got him Come on, am I online? What am I playing? Go check like a good boy HAHAHAHAHAHA
You STILL need 30 posts? This has not advanced the Chinese Century as expected /v/ janny OP!Consider yourself lucky to get 9RMB at this point!
>>721326946You weren't kidding, jesus
>still talking to himself>>721327218they need money so bad. even after turning the botscripts on to speedrun the game, it must have made less than 20% of its costs back this many years later
>>721326519Making an entire upper city just for Cazador’s mansion did seem like a waste of time. As for Gortash, it makes sense for him to be at the bridge because he is technically in charge of the defense during an ongoing siege. Also the bridge is probably the safest place for him to be considering the entire Bhaal cult was after him.
>>721277960The number one biggest flaw is not having full detail of the classes in the game itself.My guess is they did it this way so it wouldn't intimidate casual players, but you don't have to put that info in the level-up screen if they're afraid of that. Could've put it in a separate "Help/Info" section for reference or something.Instead I check bg3.wiki, but again. Should be written in-game. Otherwise, fantastic game. But dumb decision there.
>>721326519Act 3 is already pretty fucking long, and even with it only being lower city, it's still bigger than the city was in BG1.So on one hand, I get the annoyance, but on the other hand, it's already a 100 hour minimum game to play through.
>>721327131>Owlcat with The Expanse being oneThey started working on it back when BG3 was in early access and nobody gave a shit about it. They are inspired by Mass Effect and Bioware, not BG3 and Larian. Same with Dark Heresy which is more inspired by Disco ElysiumYou're really overestimating the influence of Larian and BG3. All this talk about “developers changing their direction because of BG3” is just a stupid publicity stunt on par with “return to form”CRPGs will still remain a niche thing and BG3 will simply remain an exception. Normies will find another game to ride, right now it's Silksong for example.
Imagine being invited by Tencent to their own paid off award show to announce "innovative games that break conventions" and declaring Astro Bot is goty
>>721327394Why are you referring to yourself as "himself" instead of "myself"? A language barrier-thing?
>>721327671this one hurt you swen >>721327627
>>721327706Huh? I was asking why you were referring to yourself as "himself" instead of "myself". I'm not sure what that post has to do with that
>Huh?You're running out of time. Make the best of what your chinese masters paid for. Or they may not invite you back to award shows in the future.
>>721327671He thinks every anon that makes fun of a lolcow is a secret janny (apparently just one) who is in secret connections with the chinese government.not even kidding. they believe that. so when he talks to himself, he accuses this supposed janny as "talking to himself", which generally immediately gives away that he's posting to himself again.
>It doesn't need to be content complete>It doesn't need DLC>It doesn't need good gameplay>It doesn't need good writing>It doesn't need actual RPG elements>It doesn't need to adapt 5e or all its flaws to a fun gameplay experience>It doesn't need to worry about the CCP owning 1/3 of the company its funded by>It doesn't matter that Tencent bought all the awards>It doesn't need to report actual sales.

>>721327836Oh. That explains the weird reply.
>>721294062I consider nigger Dwarves and nigger Elves to be woke yeah please stop pretending you haven't watched Lord of the Rings it's really annoying
You know the schizo is buckbroken when xhe has to bring up the shazam copypasta
>>721327949The second you stop pretending bg3 isnt woke
>>721327394>"they need money so bad".>there is not even an EA for their hinted new space game yet, despite the fact that are atm a major name that rocked every salechart so hard that half of normiedom in the western world would yell "Take all my money, Sven!" Logic isn't of your strengths I guess
>>721327972Sure, it's your exposers who are boke. Not you, who deletes the post on sight.Keep seething and pretending you're not an exposed /v/ mode tho
>>721327846What are some games with actual RPG elements? Only ones I know are Planet Escape Tournament and Alpha Protocol
>>721327836>every anonJust say "anons" like you're used to, chatgpt rephrasing doesn't help you like at all, schizo
>>721295561Marvlel movies don't go through the "best hits", it's all gray asexual trash its producers claim comic books are evil sexist trash, BG3 is pro-neckbeard besides the blue haired negros I had to mod out.
>>721328015They backpedal on all new projects because their budget was turbofucked by tencent. They lost fucktons on bg3. It was designed to steal the D&D IP for china and failed. Now they are a complete joke.
>>721281115>he didn't have complete faith after Dragon Commander
Even if I was a /v/ janny, I would still earn more than troongarian did during xher failed streamer career
>>721308608>>721308637Holy...FUCK
>They lost fucktons on bg3?KEKonly on /v/ do you get deranged shit like this
>>721328118Tencent gives all their money to Hiro. You're just the janny pussywhipped into doing his buidding. That's what makes you even more laughable.
>>721279972you'd be surprised how many modern game devs fuck this up somehow
>>721327983I just said it IS woke did you not notice me pointing out the niggers
There you go! So what am I playing? Am I online? How many hours in nwn1 do I have? This is more interesting than bg3 btw lmao
>>721328161Post proof of sales then. You can't. They have never released sales. And the Steam numbers are bots using free activated copies.
Congratulations on your 10RMB OP. ($1.41)
>>721328161By “they”, he means all the other studios like Bioware and Ubisoft who couldn’t meet the new standards set by BG3
>>721328248He lost an RMB for taking too long to shill. ($1.27) >>721327218
Why does dragonirian get so mad with China? His country is assbuddies with China, they're literally helping partially fund their failing war.
>>721328273*taps sign*fyi: insisting on making replies to posts no one reads just makes you a loser"the last post" is a zoomer mentality for those in a boomer body
>>721328273China is gonna annex Siberia soon
>>721328391That's why he's mad? China is going to assrape Russia after making fools of themselves in their war?
>That's why he's mad?Don't ask yourself questions. It's cringe.
>>721328082Strangely evasive there,SandeepIf they "lost fuck tons of money" why not sell EAs now?bg3 EA started in 2020 so an equivalent EA for for a 28/29 release would be right now.Tsk,seems they are swimming in so much capital that they do not NEED that extra money and you are just a gimp that should decide to eat either schizo meds or fast moving lead
>>721328491>why not sell EAs now?Because they lost all their goodwill and realized nobody will buy
>>721328391That'd be fucking hilarious honestly.The world used to think Russia was actually a power house, but they're losing heavily to a tiny country that has far fewer bodies to fight.
>bg3 EA started in 2020They were developing far before that on crowdfunding, smaller publishers, and smaller chinese money injections. lyuing is all you chinks know how to do. the whole company is a money laundering scam and a distaster
>>721328446They’re already assraping russia
>>721328613I wouldn't be surprised. I don't follow too awfully closely what's happening between them. Just knew that Russia started losing badly, then started reaching out for whatever help they could find (China being one of them). Putin was literally kissing the CCP's ass a month ago.
>nobody will buyI would
>>721328780i did.
>total no. of actual sales from the shillposts above: 0
Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3) has sold over 15 million copies as of late 2024, with Larian Studios' publishing director confirming the milestone.
>>721328446That actually makes some sense.He projects a lot. So his country being bought by China would make him go nuts and lash out.
>>721328949
>>721328343>wat this mean...>WAT THIS MEAN GWEILO>ME REPLY TO SELF MULTIPLE TIME!>YOU READ>YOU ALWAYS READ!!!Delete it again. Keep proving to us how mad and an exposed /v/ mod you are. hiro is a fucking retard for letting anyone ccp aligned get janny tools
>>721329014Okay, can you pot a screenshot of Larian Studios account posting the number?
>>721329061kek
>>721329014No sales of BG3 were ever reported. Only estimates out of a chinese embassy on weibo:https://weibo.com/1927332783/NeZDTzIuFKeep in mind, the game is supposed to be "Belgian" but anyone with a brain knew this was a farce >>721326957>>721329061>posts screenshot>refunds right afteryawn. chinese shills are the dumbest shills for a reason
>ff schizo barry>brown migrant living in Australia on government welfare>bg3 schizo dragonirian>subhuman russki likely living in another country at the momentwhy is it typically the same thing with these schizos?
The tencent adspam thread has reached pg 8No one is actually reading itAll post deletions henceforth are considered wins for shill exposers. All subsequent deletions are considered win multipliers for shill exposers.In short: You lost, and can only lose more from here
He's referring to himself as multiple people again.What a loon.
>owlcat threads get the farmer cuck>larian thread that stupid faggot.The vodkas win that one, the farmer cuck is at least occasionally funny instead of JUST stupid
>>721277960>Halfway through act 2 the game just loses steam and both the quantity and quality of it starts declining with maybe one or two notable exceptions>Even after all of the patching it can still be really fucking buggy and CPU hungry>There are some obvious "holes" with NPC interactions and storylines clashing at times, stuff like everyone having dementia, some obvious way to solve quests not actually being options to solve them and the at times extremely silly lengths the game will go to keep the story going>Crafting system is so half baked that it might as well not even exist>Short and long rest system seems to clash with the rest of the games design, especially since some story moments can only be seen when long resting but the game treats longs rests like a resource>There are too few consequences for actions, you can murderhobo entire maps and steal everything that can fit into your inventory but the storylines will remain largely unaffected except for some padding NPCs and quests not being available. Not balancing narrative consequences with gameplay ones is an extremely large missed opportunity since the only thing it affects are how many NPCs you have at the gauntlet leading up to the last battle.>The economy in the game is a massive afterthought that is completely broken by playing as a murderhobo>DnD5e is worse than DnD3.5e>The mod support is so limited that the only thing its good for is gooner mods, the lack of proper scripting support, a map editor and being unable to add new stuff without replacing old stuff completely hamstrings the quality of mods that can be created
kek russian schizo ragequit
>>721282647Literally not true. A bunch of oldschool crpg fans love it too. If you hate a character just RP that you hate them or kill them.
>>721329363>The tencent adspam thread has reached pg 8Do newfags really not know what a bump limit is?
>>721297263Playing Devil's Advocate, even if you do hate Aylin and Isobel, the game gives you options to make them both suffer and die. That's more freedom and player expression than Veilguard or Andromeda allowed. And it's the bare minimum of what you can do to pretty much everyone you meet in Owlcat games.
>>721277960Every character talks and acts like a Californian who got into d&d through binge watching critical role during covid.
>>721329574You didn't get a single "good" thread for your game ever since it's release and you never will. Shouldn't have spammed the gay bear to catalogue. You reap what you sow and you get what you fucking deserve, faggot.
>>721330459>thinks he is anything but a convinient thread bumperdelusion with no limits
>>721330536You do know they actually read your threads to gauge why do they not get any sales?
>>721330615You should actually re-read them too, to analyze why you are unable to think or type.
