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

Search engine optimization is a full time job okay? I heard someone say Lilura wrote a new article a few months back but that might have been just hearsay.

I have a pretty interesting Paladin-Sorcerer build that I'm cooking up. Multiclassing may not be as bad as I thought tbh. Quite a few neat options

 

[cpmartins]

Retards still think THE HOLOCAUSTATION happened. I guess the paid for "historians" did do their jobs well, and so did the brainwashing specialists teaching our children.
Here's a hint, the barest of notions
Why not bullets, but complicated ovens?

What are you thinking? I read one person suggesting main class 8/synergy class 4, and another suggesting 10/2.

Last week I spend some hours reading 5e and bg3 wiki figuring out builds but since there is no info past lvl 5 I feel its kinda pointless (also they are making everything more casual no attribute requirements for multiclassing which should open some options which are probably not used typically in 5e + stuff unlock different levels compared to 5e)

Also there are like 10 jewtubers who have played whole game and made videos about multiclassing but still none bothered to figure out how multiclassing spell progression is in bg3 which can potentially break whole balance

Either Pal 6/Sorc 6 or Pal 8/Sorc 4. Leaning towards 6/6, it depends a lot on how many free +1 ability score boosts there are available in the game. I've heard there's at least 2...

I'll post the build this weekend. Will be making a Steam page

I actually kind of agree. There's almost no complexity or variation to single-class builds once you're past character creation, finding interactions with multiclassing is one of the few ways you have

That said there's still some absurd class combinations which I'd rather not see. 2nd edition dual-classing and multiclassing were good in that regard

I still can't get over how terrible the character portraits were in BG2. Other than Viconia, all the female party members have hundreds of rubber bands in their hair for some reason.

NWN also had terrible character portraits, as did Pillars of Eternity. Not sure why having normal fantasy portraits like Icewind Dale had is so difficult for games.

Women are extremely objectified

 

[luj1]

wow its never enough for these people

 

[luj1]

Heard from a friend this plays like a dating simulator

After a big quest youre in some camp, and most characters start outright flirting with you. Hahahah wtf??

The men are heteronormative...?

HETERONORMATIVE?!

They all look like gay fantasy fashion models!! This guy pisses me off.

 

[luj1]

"too artistic and they dont understand"

lmao

I hope you can kill the gay bear

You can. It's in the Early Access.

You're misrembering or twisting the context - I played it through it yesterday. She gives some bullshit about resurrection not being possible, a clear (and poor) handwave from the writers to explain away the non-possibility of resurrection. You know it's a poor explanation since J states both the passing of time and the stuff Khalid was exposed to (aka writers just slinging everything at the wall).

Jaheira assess that too much time has passed (prob by decomposition) and the body is mangled. Both are important factors for raising dead in 2nd edition. A mangled body will be resurrected without its missing parts, and resurrection can only be attempted within a certain amount of days.

Resurrection is another option, but lorewise that's extremely difficult and unlikely to do. You need a Priest of at least 14th level and minimum 18 Wisdom according to the rules.

So what you guys playing before the release? I tried some shitty Korean MMO but 2 weeks was my tolerance. Either retarded grind or swipe your credit card.

(I started already halfway through May)

 

[Tuco Benedicto Pacifico]

Not sure if these were posted, but pretty nice series of3 very in-depth videos analysing the latest pre release news from Larian.

I follow this channel. This guy is pretty good with his breakdown of classes and shit.

Or just go to the Temple of Lothander a few feet from the dungeon exit and pay 150 gold.

the wizard game

I wonder if this is a "do not speak of its name" situation or they just get banned if they say Harry Potter.

Probably to retard-proof the romance questlines. If you don't make it obvious you'll have people complain they missed the "let's bang ok?" dialogue options.

Game mechanic conveniences =/= lore.

They banned talking about Hogwarts Legacy.

It is never good enough for these people. I really wish game devs would stop listening to these people and trying to please them. It is impossible. You'll have an easier time drawing blood from a stone then pleasing the woke crowd.

I am for equality so i welcome female and male objectification. Objectification is beautifull! Yes to nice cute revealing outfits!

The internet was a mistake.
