We're still working our way through it, but Baldur's Gate 3 is exceptional so far. Check out our review-in-progress:
is finally upon us. A whopping 23 years after the Bhaalspawn and their buds took a trip to Athkatla in Baldur's Gate 2, we're back in the Sword Coast slaughtering goblins, getting spooked by mind flayers and spewing out magic missiles. And even for a jaded old man like myself, who'sI'd like nothing more than to slap a score on this thing and send you off on a grand adventure, but I've only had access to the review build since Sunday night.
Spells, skills and physical manipulation of the world around you opens up so many doors, literally and metaphorically. Stuff that's normally under the hood in most RPGs is transformed into some of Baldur's Gate 3's most exciting moments, as you hold your breath and pray for a natural 20. I started out denying myself the fun of my mind flayer powers, but now I'm all in. They're just too much fun to ignore. I've even managed to talk most of my party into embracing the way of the tadpole, increasing their own effectiveness in combat, potentially at the cost of their humanity. Am I a bad boss? No, I'm helping them reach their full potential. Am I a bad friend? Oh yes, absolutely.
I've spent a long-ass time exploring the Sword Coast so far, but a nearly equal amount of time has been allotted to beating the crap out of goblins and ogres
