That's why I bought it (and I loved the first game way back when). The game play is fantastic with a ton of content. Story and characters aren't my cup of tea, but I imagine it appeals to what a lot of people like about dnd. That being said, it's the first game in years I've played and then suddenly realized it's 2am.

Were you a big fan of bg1 and 2? They were my favourite games of all time and while i enjoy 3 alot i am actually a critical of some things, mainly ui, qol related, but also mechanically.

Did you play any of the pathfinder games?

After aboit 15 hours I stopped playing BG3 because of QOL. I just got sick of clicks not registering or shooting a spell into an inanimate object instead of the desired target. Save cheesing is awful. The camera is aweful. Lack of vendors to sell garbage. Repeating voice lines from NPCs that you can't do anything about except move away. Having to know (or search online) a whole bunch of information to 100% some quest lines is irritating. BG2 was far better IMO. Probably going to get downvoted to hell for this comment.

Yes, @MrPoopyButthole. I'm always disappointed by a PoopyButthole. Go play BG2, again. Leave us alone. This game is far from perfect, but read the room. Bye.
