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

[deama]

How far does the EA allow you to go up to?

Level 4 IIRC

Is level 4 a lot? I'm not familiar with DnD 5th edition.

The devs also said there's about 25 hours of gameplay in the EA.

25 hours is pretty good, trying all the different outcomes may also net you additional 5-6 hours
Plus there're people who played Ground Zeroes for 50 hours

I think the game caps at level 10, so its about 1/3 in.

I know this is just the EA release but I still find it amusing that they're facing these difficulties since the city their HQ is located in also suffered from a city-wide power outage on the day of DOS2's release.

This is the work of Ontopoly, he is sabotaging the launch!!!

Oh damn, that's pretty low, how is that in terms of power? What is a lvl 10 character meant to be? Cause I know that in DnD 3rd edition lvl 20 is meant to be one of the greatest mortals, basically legendary, and lvls 20-30 is demigod. What's lvl 10 in dnd 5th edition meant to represent?

Someone who's into NTR.

 

[Haba]

How are the sex scenes? Any good? Or are they not available in early access?

Seer sight: Awkward, not as unintentionally funny as DA3.

From the D&D basic rules:

In the first tier (levels 1–4), characters are effectively apprentice adventurers. They are learning the features that define them as members of particular classes, including the major choices that flavor their class features as they advance (such as a wizard’s Arcane Tradition or a fighter’s Martial Archetype). The threats they face are relatively minor, usually posing a danger to local farmsteads or villages.

In the second tier (levels 5–10), characters come into their own. Many spellcasters gain access to 3rd-level spells at the start of this tier, crossing a new threshold of magical power with spells such as fireball and lightning bolt. At this tier, many weapon-using classes gain the ability to make multiple attacks in one round. These characters have become important, facing dangers that threaten cities and kingdoms.

I'll probably bite when it hits Steam. I don't have much else to play at the minute...

Reminder that it is also available DRM free on GOG.

 

[Erikkolai]

I'll check it out on Twitch today. I expect to be thoroughly repulsed and start a new ELEX playthrough to purify myself.

 

[Infinitron]

Edit jjust got the confirmation from an editor that there is a press embargo until the EA launch.

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2020/10/06/baldurs-gate-3-enters-early-access-today-and-on-mac-too/

Baldur’s Gate 3 is due out in early access today at 6pm BST. It’ll be available on Steam, GOG, and okay sure Stadia too. I’m sure we’ll get someone to put on their robe and wizard hat to tell us all about it soon.

Busy evening ahead!

 

[kangaxx]

6pm? Luckily I have good internet... I may just be able to download all 150gb and get a quick game in before bed.

 

[Volrath]

I'm going to play the shit out of it when it releases today. It's fucking D&D boyos

 

[BarbequeMasta]

It's 5E D&D, that's a very distinctive precision that kills any hype I have.

5E is the best edition since AD&D you weirdo.

[Drakortha]

[Shem-Rizhu]

Have you guys already made up your mind about your starting character?

 

[Elex]

Probally a ranger i’M curious of their Implementation

 

[John Keel]

What's the expected download size of the EA and how fast do you think it will be available at The Inventory that shan't deplete

 

[underground nymph]

You have got to be joking.

The large party size was one of the best things about Baldur's Gate.

Not when you have plenty of abilities per char. I very much like the 4 chars idea.
