Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 Pre-Release Thread [EARLY ACCESS RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Ismaul]

You get rids of most chores

The problem is that there are any at all. 3E is very GM-unfriendly.

I have no idea if Dzirrt survived up to the "current" D&D times but if he does I really look forward to the perspective of him being included to BGIII and killing him again.

He did. They fast forwarded 100 years, and he is basically the only one left alive of the entire group. However, most of them have "reincarnated", and the gang is back together. They are even conveniently identified for you who their "previous lives" were. And yes, Cattie-brie is back in another body. A Bedine (i.e., the desert dwellers in NWN Shadows of Undrentide; aka FR arabs).

Swen: "You miss a lot in D&D—if the dice are bad, you miss," he says. "That doesn't work well in a videogame. If I do that, you're going to review it and say it's shit. Our approach has been implementing it as pure as we can, and then just seeing what works and what doesn't. Stuff that doesn't work, we start adapting until it does."

They're making a DND game where you can't roll 1...?
Getting a tiny bit sceptical here...

Infinitron, once details are revealed, can you split the thread and lock this one?

I'm sick of checking back through pages of blabbering about nothing looking for details that aren't even out yet.

All the hints are here. We know that it will be some kind of decline. We just aren't sure how bad it will be.

 

[Oreshnik Missile]

This game is gonna be SUCH full-on casual mode dogshit

 

[PrK]

if the dice are bad, you miss ... That doesn't work well in a videogame. If I do that, you're going to review it and say it's shit.

Baldur's "button -> awesome" Gate. Is there anyone left that doesn't believe it will be grade A shit?

Infinitron i don't mind splitting the thread,but there is no need for locking it up.

 

[catfood]

There's no denying it, this game will be nowhere near the same level of quality that Divinity 2 was. You know I'm right.

Why did you make me read up on this, you sick bastard!

While in Baldur's Gate, Artemis cuckolded him with Dahlia and they encountered Dahlia's son Effron again.

Are you guys talking about D&D or some turkish soap opera????

Welcome to 5th Ed FR, dudes. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

Muahahahahaha!

Just for you to see that, yes, casters are better than fighters. Salvatore was trying to make Cattie-brie dual class into a mage in the whole Obould saga, but then woked of the coast brought out 5th Ed, so why not go the whole hog?

 

[Haba]

Forgotten Realms was a mistake.

 

[Frusciante]

It was so useless to announce this already. All it does is annoy people.

 

[Space Satan]

As of 5E, there's random bits of homosexuality everywhere. Two men sharing a bed, a married pair of male porters, a gnome settlement with two kings, and a shopkeeper with nonbinary pronouns all appear in 5e adventures. An attempt to Retcon the massively corrupt and crime ridden city of Waterdeep into "Seattle during Pride" was actually met with significant backlash.

Why?

 

[luj1]

There's no denying it, this game will be nowhere near the same level of quality that Divinity 2 was.

Not that Divinity 2 is a particularly high bar to begin with...

 

[Jimmious]

If you mean D:OS2, on the quality level its way beyond its competition.

 

[luj1]

It doesn't matter what you think. Larian has existed since 1996 and never made anything remarkable. Truth be told back in the day no one wanted to touch their stuff. Those weren't even second-rate RPGs, but third-rate ones, worth picking up only during a summer videogame drought.

 

[Jimmious]

They made the two best selling turn-based CRPGs , potentially ever. That is quite remarkable. Back in the day , I agree. Now Larian are something completely different than "back in the day"

wait until you guys find out that this has been done for ages but you didn't know because the developers didn't explicitly state they were fudging the RNG in your favor

Makes sense too, because we kill way more monster in those games, than you will ever see in an actual campaign.
