Rules:
This game was weird for me. I genuinely got addicted to it, but got burned out near the end of the second act. I just ended up putting the game down once I got to the third act.
I really loved it, but I had enough of it for the time being.
With that being said I think the game is like 10/10. The voice acting was flawless. The devs were responsive to feedback. I’ll totally day-1 purchase this studies future releases. They earned it.
For me it was a time issue. If I was a teenager with time to kill, I’d sink endless hours into it. But regularly picking it up and putting it down is kind of disruptive to the flow of the game in my opinion. It’s not something I feel you can play for 30 minutes or even an hour and get much out of.
Overall incredible game though, that I highly recommend.
I guess this is part of it. Maybe I felt bad about neglecting other things in life to play the game. Some fights take 30+ minutes.
For me it's this plus the level of focus I feel like I need to not get my shit kicked in.
Maybe I'm just bad, but there's a good number of encounters where a few bad moves can put you in a slow spiral to defeat. Plus there's just a lot to consider at any given moment, it's a deep combat system.
When my only time to play is after my kid is down for the night, a lot of the time I'm looking to relax and not think super hard.
I really need to go back and dive into act 3, I just kinda stopped after getting there.
Same here, i also put down DOS2 near the end of the game multiple times as well.
But I still love these games, and I think Baldurs Gate 3 deserves all the praise it's getting.
Yeah, the third act is thw least polished of all. I'm not saying it's bad, but compared to act 1 and 2 it is just not as good.
