Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 Early Access Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Kiste]

This, especially for long massive RPGs their reviews are pointless

 

[processdaemon]

It doesn't seem like bullshit to me, arguably poor planning because they it could have been resolved by having the EA on a separate page to the main release but this isn't the first time the issue has cropped up on Steam so I don't think Larian invented it out of the blue. I think it's unreasonable for the article to imply that it's because Larian 'is worried about technical problems' (I bet they are because Swen has openly admitted that they're doing last minute troubleshooting, but I don't think this is to cover it up).

Person who animated this never touched a woman.

I prefer this fella :

sort of nsfw

No need for separate page. The purchase could simply give two products - BG3 and BG3 EA. BG3 would be handled as any Steam pre-order, while EA would be unlocked right away. That way pre-load of BG3 proper wouldn't disrupt EA in any way. Some games have Beta branches and such as separate games just like this.

So is it Baldurs Gate 3 or Divinity 3 with a Baldurs Gate skin slapped on (I mean gameplay wise)?

Turn based combat and only a four character party let me suspect the later.

Posting on a video game forum is gay. Go kidnap a woman, go build a house, go conquer Persia. Now that's a straight man's afternoon!

Gameplay is Divinity + DND 5e. Not a lot in common with original games.

You might have missed it in the site’s FAQ. This entire forum is about closeted gays role-playing as straight homophobes.

 

[Ryzer]

Posting photos of elven males and saying " it's my husbando desu desu", excuse me but that's gay.

Only if you neglect to preface or follow it up with the phrase (no homo). Which he did, so I guess it is pretty gay.

I'm not really familiar with how Steam does these things: Is there a point to installing the early access version now in order to get a relatively smaller download on release?

Can't wait to get mad at Steam for crashing repeatedly as I download

nope

No, devs explicitly said that you should delete early access in fact.

Larian released a statement that the full game is NOT an upgraded Early Access, its different build with different files. Delete early access, and delete configuration and save files, and any mods you may have installed.

No. We have to download the whole 122GB at release.

Which means I won't get to fuck the bear until Friday evening.

Enjoy my sloppy seconds, internetlet

 

[Strange Fellow]

I am not an internetlet but I am an SSDlet. 122 gigs is a tall order. I may even be forced to delete my bear porn folder. Talk about a catch-22.

My download speed is 1.0 MB/s in the West, somehow I feel like a man living in the russian tundra.

Until I realize that the men in the Russian tundra have better internet speed.
