Don’t tell the forums that, they’re convinced it’s an unplayable woke government ops pathetic remake zoophilia kissing simulator insult to d&d. It’s got so many bugs you can’t play it on anything short of a super computer, and is targeting children with it’s addicting gameplay and low system requirements.
Every day there’s a new 3 page screed expanding each of the above adjectives into paragraphs of garbage. Yet somehow most of the authors don’t own the game, and it’s has a overwhelmingly positive rating…
I love BG3 as a video game, but I feel like Hasbro is going to take a lot of the ideas and try their best to translate them into the trrpg space and shittify both on the way through.
TBH it’s really not that surprising, just classic gatekeeping - cRPGs were very niche for a long time and those people dislike the fact many new people are suddenly interested in them because of this game.
I kinda get it in a way, I think some other games in the genre deserve this success more, but at the end of the day it’s still better than most of the shit released lately.
Got any examples? I’ve been a crpg fan since my teens, but there’s so many I haven’t tried. Any game that deserve success more than bg3 is a game I should probably give a shot!
I think Pillars of Eternity is way better than BG3 - I prefer its combat, story, writing and art style.
It’s also a very big game, fairly similar to BG3 I think.
It also has a sequel which I haven’t played yet.

It did have a “literally unplayable” save deletion bug on Xbox until recently. I just waited for them to fix it before spending my money.
I played 100+ hours on Xbox before that was patched and never had a problem so “literally unplayable” is really a bit much.
A bunch of less lucky people did exactly that and then lost 100+ hours of progress.
It’s an essential feature of the game. Literally. Unplayable.
😂
Omg I’ve been destroyed
I’m just saying I LITERALLY PLAYED it during that whole time so it LITERALLY wasn’t UNPLAYABLE.
🤡
And it’s always people that have private profiles.
If you’re profile is private on steam you’re automatically disregarded.
Lemmy is the opposite. Don’t dare criticize or say you dislike BG3 or else they will come for you.
Video game forums are always garbage.
But partially in their defense, it makes my 4070 work and the only other time it gets that warm is when I’m running stable diffusion on it constantly.
