Wait, am I even more blind than I thought? I thought BG3 was one of the best looking games available right now.

No, BG3 has good graphics. And graphics have become pretty stagnant since it's impossible to most consumers to upgrade their graphics cards atm.

It is generic looking if you take away how bad larian models are. Fuck i even ran it at my gtx 580 without any problems on medium.

Original BG2 > "A Druid must be level 14 to be able to challenge for the leadership of a druid grove"
BG3 : Lv 3 ARCHdruids.
There is any other game where it happens? Arch druids are pretty strong in any game that I've played. In M&M 6/7, you need to do TWO promotion quests to become one.

iirc: Definition of arch druid in AD&D and 5e aren't the same.Original BG2 > "A Druid must be level 14 to be able to challenge for the leadership of a druid grove"

In 5e archdruid mechanically means a druid that can wildshape at will, which a druid PC achieves at 20th level. In 2e you can become an archdruid at 12th level by dueling and beating another archdruid. Hypothetically you can have a lower level archdruid, since archdruid is a social position, as long as the lower level druid can wildshape at will.

Hey, remember how in Morrowind there's this archmage, who's a total loser? And how nobody ever complained about how it didn't make sense, because there's only one way an archmage can possibly be? Good times.

This was a fairly interesting point over a year ago when you started bitching about it.
Now it's just:

Is he? I'm been following the thread for a time and he usually brings something interesting to discuss, even if not always correct.

Victor has about three talking points, which he repeats ad nauseam.
1) Why isn't disintegrate a no-save, instakill spell?
2) Level 4 archdruids
3) Dungeons and kobolds
I alone must have discussed archdruids with him specifically about 5 times.

They didn't change it, because it doesn't need changing, no matter how much Victor yells at the clouds.

Wrong.
1 - I never said that disintegrate should be no save. It should be save or die and should't work on everything. For eg, huge creatures should be too big to be disintegrated. Phantasms and incorporeal stuff should be immune to disintegrate too.
2 - See my previous posts. I din't mentioned dungeons & kobolds and other stuff here from a long time. In fact, most of my recent posts are about classes which people wanna to see in the game.
Nice strawman.

And if you search for archdruid as one word, even more come up. It's asinine.

The only problem here is that you guys are looking at something you don't understand.
NPCs and monsters don't have levels, and they haven't for quite a few editions. What you're looking at is just an implementation detail.
Look at Halsin's HP. That's probably about the HP of a level 20 druid.

A level 20 pc druid would have 90 hp average plus 20 times whatever their con modifier is.
The NPC archdruid statblock has a lot more hp https://www.5esrd.com/database/creature/archdruid/
