Baldur's Gate 3

Baldur's Gate 3 is coming to PC on 3rd of August, a month ahead of schedule. Made by same people as Divinity: Original Sin.
Anybody here looking forward to playing it? If so, what are you going to play as?
I'm thinking of a Blue Dragonborn Tempest Cleric, put on some heavy armour equipped with a warhammer and just mash everything.

Game looks good. I got a back log, but will grab it. Apparently you can end up as a wheel of cheese that travels through time to a world of dinosaurs.

But it will still surprise you that that’s what happens.”

Sounds like there's something for everyone so, a lactose-tolerant adventure.

I'm trying to play this game but it's pretty hard and slow going. I'm playing on tactician which was probably a bad idea.
Anyways I'm only a few hours into act 1 and just fought a goblin horde with some friendly NPC's, unfortunately my entire party was somehow poisoned during the fight, or one of my guys had an AoE effect on him that was harming the others and it wiped out my entire party even though I won the battle. I have no idea wtf just happened and now I have to start over

I got turned into cheese. Its a total party kill/instant reload moment. Game over man, game over.
I'm in the start of act 2 at this point and already level 8. 12 is the max. Feel like I'm going to max out way before I get near the end. You also get absolutely flooded with magic garbage. I'm running a dark urge monk and at first it's legit because it kinda forces you to do some evil shit, but later it becomes pretty damn easy to be the resistor, the good guy. I'll prob do an evil only run after this.

How is everyone liking it so far? I'm on the fence about buying it. Been quite some time since I have bought a AAA game.

Just torrent it off piratebay for free. That's what I did. I got laid off and couldn't afford to pay for it.
If you really like it and want to support the dev, then buy a legit copy later.

This might be the first think chops has said that I 100% agree with. Pirate it, and after you dump 200 hours into it, buy a copy so these guys continue making games like this.

Yeah it is pissing off other devs. We can't be as good as it. Shit, way to launch your game.
In another game, Madden 24, Josh Allen is the cursed one. Is great to have a PS5 and a laptop gaming computer. Just have to keep an outside life which I do.

I opt'd to restart and do a proper evil dark urge playthrough. So many bodies!

Glad Divinity made it to Switch, but damn I'd buy a ps5 for BG3 alone.

Probably one of the best RPG's I've played in decades. The acting and story is amazing. Highly recommend playing the Dark urge background. Works with any class/race. Works for both good or evil playthroughs. Storytelling in BG3 is phenomenal.

Consensus on if this game is worth a play through? Is the action improved since the last? I went from Elden ring to BG2 and it was too big a drop off.
