  • The way you focus on concepts like empiricism, nihilism, solipsism, other isms, instead composing a straightforward reply that is to the point comes across autistic. The other guy's doing the same so maybe it's just typical conversation on here.

  • Bioware themselves took many liberties with the source material to create their games, not sure wtf you're on about. Larian made a direct sequel to Bioware's Baldurs Gate, the tone was set by Bioware not the source material.

    Baldur's Gate is narrative heavy and Larian's writers fell flat on their faces trying to replicate it.

    Real time combat was a defining feature of the original games. I was prepared to accept turnbased combat but the game fails in too many other aspects to overlook.

  • I'm not sure why everyone exalts larian as some master story writer now when everything they've done has merely been passable. It doesn't matter how similar the story is if it's told like shit.

    Yes, they did manage to include the city of Baldur's Gate, I'm impressed.

    Recurring characters would be a treat if the game didn't suck in all other respects.

    The play style? Wtf? Where's the real time combat, 6 party system, single open map, etc. Play style couldn't be anymore different.

    I'm not sure how much the setting has changed since 2E but Larian's Faerun feels nothing like the original games.

  • Since when has gameplay been relegated to lowest priority when making a sequel to a GAME. I understand now what the original fallout fans must have felt when they were graced by fallout 3 and the masses praised it.

    Tone and story are Larian tier, i.e. mediocre, and far removed from the original games. There is no fidelity to what bioware built, just pretence.

  • I agree, all of that would have been fine if they called it as it is: original sin DnD edition. Instead the title is Baldur's Gate "3" and I invite anyone to tell me what connects this game to the originals. Nothing I've seen so far is even remotely reminiscent of the original games and that's why I find it laughable that Larian "hopes they did bioware proud". What a joke.

  • So anyone can post a wall of allegations with zero proof and the removed here all take it as fact. Even if it were all true, the way you people jump to conclusions demonstrates the kind of fan base required to keep a company like LTT profitable through all their sloppy content.
