why the hate on BG3

[Cpt. Dallas]

Many Codexians would probably say KotOR.

And temporarily, and by same dev, FO:NV, both preceded and followed by massive decline.

Another point on the curve of dev to dev decline would be numa numa.

I sure hate BG3. What a terribly bland and uninteresting game. I regret spending those 10 Argentinian pesos on it.

 

[Serus]

As much as I hate to say it, it is still the AAA games/franchises that gamers get excited for and pushes the industry.

"Pushes the industry"? I certainly hope so. That it will push the industry from a tall cliff, making more room for indie devs who actually know how to make games. Or at least some of them are willing to learn. Why would i care what excites some unspecified gamers is beyond me.

How did you managed to do that? I wanna learn your master merchant knowledge. Is this restricted to your tribe?

Pushes in the direction of decline. AAA industry or maintain the status quo or pushes towards the decline.

Even goyim can do that with a proxy or vpn.

The question shouldn't be "WHY" the hate, but rather "WHY NOT" the hate

This looks shitter by the day.

Sven you useless cunt.

Sven you useless cunt.

For it to look worse than the previous day something would have to change
I don't see anything being changed in this game

I've only just seen the vid Master Fed posted, and the characters look even worse than the original one's which I saw.

Declining from shit to shitter.

They haven't been an Indie studio at least since 2009.

glad to see you're in charge of defining what an indie studio is

He's right. They haven't been absorbed by some larger corporation ala Bungie->Microsoft, Westwood->EA etc. and they self-publish their games on PC, only seeking assistance from larger publishers for the console releases. Just because Larian is big (250+ employees) doesn't mean that they're not independent.

Didn't you know? Rusty is in charge of defining all things on the Codex. He gets mad when someone tries to usurp his job. He is a specialist at recognising irony as well.

It's the impression I get when I read the comments on the annual summertime PC Gamer Youtube vids on PC gaming titles coming up. A lot of bitching about the games looking like "a bunch of indies" and threatening to move over to consoles.

Likely the cohort that always buys the latest GFX cards and rather huge proportion of console gaming crowd.

Let then go to consoles. PC master race community don't need console peasants. I rather play indie masterpieces like KoTC over any AAA action adventure game with stealth elements and lootboxes.

Reasons BG3 is good:

• If it succeeds, it will forever overshadow the Bioware BG games
• If it fails, it will tarnish the Bioware BG games by association

I prefer to think of BG3 as a win/win situation.

Probably because it's Divinity: Original Sin 3 wearing Baldur's Gate's skin.

Sort of amazing how closely they've adapted the ruleset and you guys still claim this bullshit.

The complaints aren't centered on the adaptation quality of DnD, the complaints are centered on the adaptation of the BG series.

That is actually a major complaint.

Ok fair point about ruleset but 4 party members? Come on.
