Will Baldur's Gate 3 be good?
>>608158676those threads always revolve around nothing but waifus with zero actual vidya discussion so i'll go on a limb and assume no
bros I really like shadowheart
>>608158824Waifus contribute a lot to making a game more enjoyable and have more discussion. Pathfinder Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous are in a lot of ways similar but you see way more discussion over WOTR because you have autism wars over Camellia vs. Arueshelae. Even Baldur's Gate II had this stuff.
>>608158676Bitch needs to fire her hair dresser. Holy shit. Imagine going outside like that.
Why do people hate Shadowheart's hair but love Rei Ayanami's hair?
>>608158676does she cuck you?
just waiting for anon to post it
>>608159862Her bangs grow on you IMO.
>>608160743no
It'll be good for sure, but probably not great. It's hamstrung by how shitty 5e is.
>>608162490>It's hamstrung by how shitty 5e is.What's shitty with 5e?
>>608162654It's shit, what more do you want?
>>608163161An explanation of particulars. People I've talked to seem to enjoy it.
>>608163347you talk to fucking mouth breathers then.
>>608162654thiscan someone without aspergers give a qrd on why 5e is shit
no one gives a shit about your ruleset talkenjoy the fucking game and femalesfaggots
>>608164379but the female suckI can't even make the PC look nice
Is there a mod yet to transform Githyanki noses into something humanlike? i would like to be aroused by them but their noses make it hard
>>608162064That's a terrible picture lmaoAnd yeah her hair is shit
>>608164418that's because you're bad at it
>>608158676Not good but entertaining at the least
>>608164531Better question - is there a mod to turn every female into the game into a gnome or a goblin? Not halfling, by the way. Those things are abominable.
>>608158676I saw in a review that you can play it entirely as a stealth game. Is this true?
>>608158676I hope so
>>608164282It isnt, the only people who dont think its the best version are either autists who grew up with 3.5 and wont let it go and boomers who want to play AD&D, which is basically an entirely different game catering to a complete different set of players anyways
>>608164751who's the human in 2nd to last supposed to be?
>>608162654>>608164282go to /tg/ or read pic rel for a qrd that can be generally applied to most modern "culture"
>>608158676It will certainly be fun, but gameplay wise it's going to be absolutely garbage compared to BG2
No. It's pozzed.However: if Larian has a pozz filter setting which can be toggled on and off, then it'll be good.
>>608162654Autists like to whine that "reeee it's too simple" when in reality D&D had been suffering from number bloat for fucking ages. It was getting obnoxious.
>>608165005all the models he made are modular, cocks and shape keys in blender so he probs just took the human female and messed around with it
Baldur's gate ended with Throne of Bhaal This nostalgia pandering garbage will have only one use, and that's porn
>>608165089Baldurs Gate trilogy was RTWP. It's hardly possible to get worse gameplay for a rpg based on a tabletop system.
>>608165210oh I thought they were all bg3 characters
>>608165210I can almost get hard if I just concentrate on emptying my mind and not remembering that they have cocks.
>>608165572he extracted the bg3 models and turned them into coom models>>608165757would you rather stare at two men fucking the girl?
>>608165572they are bg3 characters he made in the game character creatorbodies are most likely a mix of DAZ stuff
>>608166026cute men > ridiculous hyperdick and balls
>>608166269
>>608166269fucking despise seeing macro/hyper
>>608164282>can someone without aspergers give a qrd on why 5e is shitNot physically possible. It's all tryhard whining by people who like to flex how making 7 dice rolls and calculate off a spreadsheet to see if you could climb a ladder was good design.
>>608158676Progress seems incredibly glacial. Going by how that usually turns out for RPGs, I'm expecting everything not in early access to be buggy and overall a downgrade compared to what we already have.DOS2 was also incredibly front loaded and Pathfinder Wrath also fell apart around the act that received the least testing.
>>608165056It's funny because this meme image is wrong in two ways. These are the true potential outcomes: >one of those two original guys will stay with the new friend group>they'll play some cash games, maybe the dudebro is going to get out of his immature phase and marry the chick>they'll always remember this as the time they got together as a group, but it will cost the happiness of one of the original guys, who wouldn't have ever become so bitter if he hadn't lost his friend to this new group, and wouldn't have made this meme imageOR>one of those two guys stays in the new "friend" group>the green friend transitions and becomes a >the brown friend is killed by a black guy>the chick becomes a femcel>the dudebro becomes a gymfag and buys into some fucking asinine alpha male ideology>the original friend will have to develop cognitive dissonance trying to appease all of them, obviously they never actually have fun with DnD and put up fake personalities when or if they ever get together>the guy who left shoots up a schoolTl.dr. maybe if they hadn't been so fucking bitter, things didn't have to be so much worse than you imagine them to be.
Not a single post in this thread actually explaining why 5e is bad.Makes you think.
>>608158676Probably, what we have so far is fun. I like the system, even if it deviates from how the rules work a bit in 5E. There is a good deal of reactivity and choices you can make as you play, and the story is interesting as well. Some stuff, mostly physics stuff and certain scenes, is in a pretty unpolished state right now, but I imagine after it is released fully and they iron out any bugs that it will be a lot better.
>>608166026>would you rather stare at two men fucking the girl?I actually prefer solo girl porn where she doesn't look at the camera. I can empathise with the loneliness.
>>608166815What a retarded take.
>>608166815I can only assume you’re a woman or worse (a tranny) with that retard logic.
>>608158676As far as I remember you can't have a party of 6, that killed it for me.
>>608158676I have no ideaI bought it thoughI've only played the first like 20 minutes and don't really care enough to play it again until it's "finished"
>>608167237>old good, new bad>well why is the new bad?>because it just is, okay?You can't even name a better version of d&d.
>>608167074
>>608167140>>608167237No, I'm just not scared of women and dudebros and don't have phantoms in my brain about sexual competition with them.
>>608164753lol no.
>>608166815>t. never left the basement
>>608166950Lack of customization in classes, replacing Fort/Ref/Will saves with saves per attribute, Dexterity becoming the best stat in the entire game for how much range it has (attack and damage rolls for light/ranged weapons, armor class, initiative, Dex having the most effects to save against), bounded accuracy with proficiency limiting your ability to actually be really good at things without magic assistance
>>608167629Dex already was the best physical stat in 3.5.
>>608166815the anon you replied to here, I agree with the others this is possibly the most retarded take I've ever read. Go the fuck back and take a length of rope along with you.
>>608166950Can't multiclass
>>608167893Well no shit you'd think that. You posted the dumb image.
>>608166950>"w-why doesn't anyone want to talk about tabletop games in a video game thread!" >>/tg/
>>608167975your entire premise is "no one wanted the old group and if they did they are mentally unhealthy" which is proof of your stupidity. That isn't even mentioning your ESL tendencies, despite the fact that English is, seemingly, your native language. Pure, utter, retard cope.
>>608167074thats a deep cut man
How much of it does the early access cover? I've already "beaten" early access twice and I don't want to play it again unless it's significant.
>>608165172For a video game rpg too simple is indeed a flaw.Larian agrees and have added special weapon abilities that don't exist in the vanilla 5e game.
>>608168219>"no one wanted the old group and if they did they are mentally unhealthy"That's not my premise at all. The premise is that this isn't what happened. There was no invasion by normalfags that brought with them sex, drama, drinks and smoking. What actually happened was far worse, and what could have happened would have been far better - but nobody MADE it happen, and that's why we're here in current year.
>>608158676It's already the greatest co-op RPG ever made.
>>6081624905e is fine for video games. The shit 5e is bad at, the shit that ruins it as a ttrpg, is the shit that's either insanely easy anyway in a video game (exploration) or literally impossible in a video game (flexible social encounters). 5e is a great fantasy turn-based combat simulator, and that's all BG requires it to be.
how come the only crpg with flight, cover bonuses, lighting line-of-sight and all that tabletop stuff that works fine in vidya is the indie game Solasta? owlcat games have zero world interaction and larian just likes their barrels
>>608158676All I can think about when I see her is 18 inch futa cocks...And that's a good thing!

>>608158676From the Early Access, it seems way less fun than Original Sin 1/2.-Dialogue is all animated out. As a result there's less of it. I really enjoyed turning off voice volume and just reading the dialogue in my head in OS1/2.-The combat is rancid fucking 5th ed. D&D shit. Instead of a wide variety of interesting builds, you get "Wizard!!!! He can cast FIREBALL.... he can learn one new spell at level 4, which is... TELEPORT...." that's really fucking boring and extremely generic.

are there any virgin romances in this game?
Does it have easy difficulty yet? If not that it's gonna be trash.
>>608164282Its for people who want build autism and indepth combat, definitely revolving around stacking buffs and being insane. Stuff like Concentration, Advantage/Disadvantage dumbed it down enough where its still fun but not excessive.

>>608165172Fuck off, 3rd Ed's endless possibilities for deeply varied and rich characters was amazing.This MUH SIMPLE shit is solely to attract the braindead LGBTQ and "Nerdy Girl" mouthbreather audience who otherwise would just play the simplified D&D knockoffs that were getting too popular with the casuals before 5th ed.No ACTUAL D&D fan fucking complained about 3.5 ed. Seriously, not a single fucking soul who actually played D&D went online and said "hey, you know how rich and varied our sessions can be thanks to the deep and complex character leveling? Why don't you take that out, we hate that."5th ed happened because of simplified D&D knockoffs getting popular with the hipster nerd crowd.
>>608169981Half of those are reddit opinions as well.

>>608170047>deep and complex Dude all it was were just MORE BIG NUMBAHSI like 3.5 but I completely understand why the change to 5e was made. Especially since encounter design in 3.5 was absolutely retarded.
>>6081700475th ed happened because 4th ed flopped.
would BG3 be better if it was done in pathfinder 2e instead of dnd 5e
>>608168890solasta spent their entire development time on those 4 mechanics you mentioned. the character models, maps and UI look like basic Unity templates

>>608170748It's not unrelated. Every single one of /v/'s problems would be over if the video game and in this case traditional game manufacturers sold exclusively to them, and not to whoever would pay the most with fiat currency that serves no other purpose than to leash you to their central banks.

>create character, what do you look like?>Now, make your character's fantasy waifu. What make dick hard?Who did you make? I obviously made a young female dark elf because I'm a neurotypical sane person.
>>608170551Sounds like your problem is that full casters aren't undefinably stronger than martials.
>>608171024I made a High Elf waifu for my edgy Dark Elf girl player character
>>608171019It's literally related tho.This >>608165056 can't happen under economic national socialism. If you only sell games to gamers, then non-gamers can't infect your hobby and can visit the gas chambers instead.
>>608164751>horsecock futaEvery time, I'll never understand you fags.
>>608158676if it lets me have explicit hardcore sex with shadowheart, it will be a good game.
>>608171212that's not even how nat socialism works faggot
I just wanna make an old man dragonborn who refuses to romance anyone
>>608171024I'm not picking up the game until it comes out but when it does, I'll play a male dark elf that dreams of a young female human. Possibly even illegally young.
>>608169842>>608170014>orc futaSOURCE NOW!!!!!!!!!!1
>>608164531no amount of mods will turn the githskanki into a desirable race no matter what they look like.
What kind of name is Shadowheart anyways? It sounds like her parents were kinda cringe.
>>608166501wish there was a game like this
>>608158676It is already good, just needs finishing
>>608171054The solution is to grant a ton of skills to martials as well, which by the way 3.5ed wasn't so bad at either.The solution is not to just make Wizards into washed up mall cops who can muster 1 spell a day because hipster gamer girl Stacy doesn't want to keep track of more than one thing.
>>608170695do you like drows with fat cocks and heavy cum filled balls
>>608166501not all homosexuals like the same thing, no. most homosexuals for example are pedophiles, but some are into "bears" and some are into "futas" but not irl trans.
>>608171252there is no horse cocks in any of those retard>>608171381check >>608164751>>608171415a game where you play a hung futa a rail twinks?
>>608171585>>608171435Shouldn't you be recovering from monkeypox
>>608171584>most homosexuals for example are pedophileslmao
>>608171432Hipster gamer girl stacy doesn't play wizard you bozo. The reason this happened is because skills do nothing for martials if the wizard can do anything and everything they do. And you know who plays martials? Video gamers. Such as those posting on this board, /v/, and that thread we had earlier today where all the martials talk up how based we are for playing martials and not wizard fags.You're complaining to the people that actively enjoy your suffering, cuckold nooblet. Take your issues to your tranny friends on /tg/.
>>608171432>The solution is to grant a ton of skills to martials as well, which by the way 3.5ed wasn't so bad at either.Did we play the same 3.5e?
>>608170513I like the 3 action system instead of Action, BA and Movement but at the same time, it would change so much of the core gameplay I don't know if it would work.
>>608171584Nobody is or will ever be into irl trans.
>>608171820ftm can look pretty sexy. femboys with a pussy
>>608158676yes because you can murder all the "waifus" and pursue true power and knowledge as the supreme wizard of waterdee
>>6081717183 action system is kinda dumb because swinging your sword should not take up movement. It's fucking stupid.
>>608158676If they make it more like dark fantasy instead of whatever the fuck divinity was I'll be happy.
>>608171948Post-op? No man. They literally graft some kind of abomination between their legs and call it a penis. I sincerely hope none of you fags post a pic of that shit.
>>608164751>Only one of Shadowheart>The rest are fuggosWhy are people who make porn so mingin
>>608171948>femboys with a pussythat's just a tomboy.
Whoever is posting this same close-up of Shadowheart isn't starting these threads for game discussion. The OP of this always just posts stupid screenshots and reeeeeees.Fuck off faggot.>>608158824First post called it too.
>>608172297
what is the best race for waifus, drow, human, elf orc. gith
>>608158824The thing that pisses me off about these threads isn't necessarily that it's all just waifu shitflinging, but that these modern CRPG chicks are absolute bottom of the barrel dogshit.Like if you're gonna shit up the board with this shit atleast get some fucking taste jesus fucking christ.
>>608172792But considering the porn these chicks get (just look at this thread), being an absolute shit taste having faggot/tranny is probably a requirement to enjoy these games in the first place.

>>608173886My god, not the chairs too.
suddenly got quiet in here
will they add hexblade?
>>608158676No.Larian can't write characters for shit.The characters are what carried Baldur's Gate 2 (and 1 to a lesser extent).In BG3 they all fucking hate you and it seems like they accompany you out of spite.They're also incredibly shallow>Shadowheart is a bitchy elf because she's a bitch>Laezel is a bitchy gith because she's a gith>Astarion is a quirky faggot because he's gay>Gale>Wyll is a nigger who uhhhh, he's black ok?? We need one of those
>>608178314as long as I can romance and fuck the female party members I'm good
>>608178387If fucking boring, shallow whores is what you're after you can buy a hooker for less than the game's price
>>608177050post-nut clarity
I haven't played since near release, how do I access the new material about the drow stuff I heard about?
>>608178314You know nothing and it could not be more fucking obvious you haven't even read a wiki about the characters
>>608177050I am pleased at the progress that this ill-conceived thread has made.
>>608179518If you need to read wiki pages for the characters to like them instead of just playing the game then you're just proving my point further you fucking retarded zoomer nigger
>>608175971Your father? Pozzed. Your sister? Pozzed. Your uncle, your cousin, and her best friend.
>>608179836Hey there dumbass, your reading comprehension seems to be on holiday.Let me help you there.My statement was clearly stating you have not done any sort of research into the characters, including playing the gamesBut please continue to be a salty little bitch.

>>608179836I think he's saying reading the wiki is the worst way of learning about characters and that you have done less than that.

>>608181189what are you talking about faggot
>>608180404>futaftfy
>>608181367it's like watching women fuck with strap-ons except they can cum. that said, it becomes pure faggotry when they also add big flailing balls

>>608182768I cannot express how much I despise big areolaEspecially when they're the type that poke out off the breast like wartsWorst thing is it's so fucking common among artists and content creators in games like AA2/koikatsu/HS2, it's fucking disgusting
>>608166026>would you rather stare at two men fucking the girl?They are men, otherwise they wouldn't have cocks. I'm not the gay one here.
>>608165210I'm so glad Nyl has been had some make out scenes in his last two videos. Making out is wonderful and underrated in pornography
>>608166026>would you rather stare at two men fucking the girl?It's not difficult to focus the camera on the woman, even to the point that the man is barely visible. With a fantasy setting like BG, it's also possible to introduce a wide variety of magical conceits which further accent the woman's beauty.Giant horse cocks and absurd ballsacks are just unseemly.
>>608158676Is there a release date for this? I want to play it but I don't approve of early access jewry
>>608184076yeah, october 6 2020
>>608184076They've stated it's coming out sometime next year, most likely Q2.
>>608158676hell yeah! 9/10 by journos guarantee!
>>608184481what is that even supposed to meanare you ok anon
>>608158676No, It'd be more woke trash.
>>608185374Can't wait till the game is out and there's nothing woke in it, just to shut you faggots up
It’s not really woke except all the black ‘people’ It’s Really good but i think way too small
>>608185540every male companion is already a cock-starved faggot. you can relate
>>608185848There's literally only three black people so far, as far as I can remember
imagine taking a single male into your party
>>608185986And they try to fuck you if you're female too. They're bi at worst. At best their sexuality changes depending on what sex your character is. Cry more.
>>608184481I also love butts.
>>608186003there shouldnt be any black people that far up north
Feel like they handicapped their own story with the muh tadpole cure shit. Everybody knows that crap ain't getting dealt with til the last act so having the first two acts filled with deadend cure quests that you know aren't going to lead to anything is going to stunt whatever momentum they try to build pretty hard
>>608186775Sorry to break it to you, this isn't Europe.
>>608186845The tadpole thing isn't the only thing going on in the story.
>>608186845>first two actsAre two acts playable now? Last time I played we didn't even get half the first act.
>>608164282Number bonuses and debuffs are still there but most have been removed or changed to the annoying advantage disadvantage systemClasses are strong as fuck with a lot of utility from like level 2 by default, rogues might as well be better at moving around at that level than monks of ye olde 3.5e at like level 6-7 which kinda shits on the lower level fuckup adventures you could have but then again it's less boring this way for someYou have a fuckton of subclasses instead of multiclassing. Halfsy classes always existed to fill that niche I guess but instead you just start as a regular fighter for a spellsword and stay as fighter or vice versa. Of course, not all subclasses are there to serve this purpose.A LOT of skills have been removed which is objectively sadI guess divine casters not being bound by alignment much anymore but that was always on a DM's initiativeCaster changes to make sure most spells aren't invalidated the moment you reach the next spell level or the one after that does mean you might see the low level spells you don't like more often I guess?Races are practically all bonuses with no cons so that does hurt flavorMartials get pretty bullshit crap even though the caster supremacy is still somewhat thereOverall it's not shit at all imo
>>608187102Two acts are not playable. He's drawing inferences based on what's currently playable. The tadpole plot is so integral to the story that it's unlikely to be resolved in the 2nd act.
>>608167629>replacing Fort/Ref/Will saves with saves per attributeExplain what the old saves were again?> Dexterity becoming the best stat in the entire game for how much range it hasThis literally never ever stopped being the caseHell, it's not only true for all of D&D but also PF
>>608171379>imagine cleaning yourself of the demonic corruption just to end up as a Dark Elf>also, orbiting Isabel when he could've bagged Shadya (aka, literal Succubus in disguise) or YlayaMiss me with that lame shit.>>608172370Appreciate it based anon!
>>608187567Damn. Got me from slightly interested back down to no interest revisiting this at all.
>>608187761Depending on when you last played, they may still have added some more content. I don't believe they've added anything for the aboveground shadowland pass, but the underdark portion has been more fleshed out.
>>608187567>>608187761again, the tadpole stuff is not the only thing going on in the storyWe've got basically half the first act, with only the tadpole stuff getting obvious plot progression at the moment.However, depending on how much you pay attention and what choices you make, you can find that there's a lot more going on. Such as what's going on with the artifact, the appearance of the cult of the dead three, multiple factions trying to entice you, etc etc
>>608188090>We've got basically half the first actIt was like that when I played like a year ago, if not more.
>>608188401Yes, because they stated at the beginning that's all we were gonna get in EA. Were you expecting to get the full game immediately anon?
>>608188489Getting it somewhat around the announced release date would have been nice, yes.
>>608188090>again, the tadpole stuff is not the only thing going on in the storyTrue. There's the three bitches scheming to get their godhood back using the cult of the absolute. There's that weird box Shadowheart rubs herself with. And a lot of netherese magic shenanigans. And the tadpole is the axel at the center of all those spokes. Bear in mind that the vamp is only able to day walk because of the tadpole, so curing him would be as to remove him from the party. The tadpole is staying inside your head until the end of the game.
>>608188536Well too bad, Larian did this the last two times and it worked for them just fine.
>>608188556>The tadpole is staying inside your head until the end of the game.Not seeing a problem with that, as long as there's other plot threads to follow
>>608188932I'm certain that there will be, but the meta knowledge that the tadpole isn't getting dealt with puts a damper on all the preceding quests that offer help with it. It's also kinda weird how the game appears to punish you for trying to resolve it. Volo and the hag both screw over the player. I can imagine subsequent quests also fucking you over.
>>608188754OS1 and 2 both full released as announced a single year after the early access. you're a bitch, kill yourself, etc etc
>>608189407Potentially, but I can also imagine that they're doing that to set up a false sense of insecurity so that in the future people are wary. Then when more opportunities appear they'll potentially reject them, even when they may reward the player in some way. I can absolutely see Larian doing this.
>>608184664Cucks. Always cucks.
>>608189594OS1 and OS2 were not anywhere near as ambitious as this project.
>>608158676Hair a cute. Cute!
>>608158824Yet bg3 has terrible waifus.
>>608166501This is the most retarded 'gotcha'. Men already have to deal with shirtless barashit in everything, they really would care less as long as the left is done.
>>608190009Shadowheart is rather cute if you get that mod that touches up her face. She'll also present the opportunity to redeem her from her evil goddess in favor of Selune.
>>608187642Fortitude were things that targeted your physical form. Poisons and most death attacks targeted it. Reflex was often environmental factors. Avoiding mechanical traps and the Grease spell. Will was pretty much anything that targeted your mind. With 5e they made it so each class would only get two attribute saves out of the six attributes, and most of the effects lean pretty heavily toward Dexterity which only a small number of classes get proficiency in.
Is this game still not out yet? lmao.
>>608190584I remember playing bg3 when it first came out in early access and all companions are absolutely dull and Shadowheart is the dullest of them all.I don't know how it is now, but in general game made terrible first impression.
>>608190920It hasn't even been 2 years. You retards are the most impatient little shits I've ever seen.
>>608158824If I can knoblin the goblin, it'll be the best WRPG of all time.
>>608158676isn't the new bg game just divinity with a bg skin on it? so, if you like the divinity games you are also going to like this one, I guess..?
>>608190920We will sooner see rogue trader release rather than full baldurs gate 3 release lol.>>608191461Divinity is more fun actually.
>>608191461The only similarity it has to divinity is that it's turn based. But you already knew that, you're just purposefully spreading bait.
>>608191248>first came out in early access >terrible first impression.I also played upon initial access, and they hadn't even finished assigning character animations yet. The early access was basically paying to beta test, so I'm not sure what you were expecting.
>>608191248woah, are you saying that... an early access game...... was... unfinished...???It's almost like... they even... warned you... beforehand... woah...
>>608158676didnt it already come out and was bad?
>>608191376yeah, just 2 years after the initial release date people trusted when they bought the EA. fucking bootlicker
>>608191920>initial release dateDo you even know what EA is you mouthbreather?
>>608166815option a is worse. there's nothing that's worse than being two homies who are together through thick and thin against the world, only for one to abandon the other for the "cool" people.
>>608188754>>608191376>>608191987Why are you so hostile?
>>608192118Because I have very little tolerance for people who choose to be retards.
>>608168375why the fuck would you finish a game that might only be 40-50 percent finished?? are you fucking stupid or something?
>>608169819so?
>>608192373I think they upped it to 14 last I checked
>>608191713>>608191843There is another crpg that I also paid to beta test.It more or less worked, gave an enjoyable first impression, was bigger than full release bg3 and eventually released in less than 2 years since kickstarter fundraising started.I guess I should be thankful that at least game doesn't randomly switch to german like divinity original sin 2 did.
>>608169686Huh? I thought there's way more dialogue in BG3 and certainly way more interactivity and ways for the player to go about their journey. Just compare Fort Joy to what's in the early access now, which isn't the whole act 1 even.
>>608192483>was bigger than full release bg3Woah, you have the full game?
>>608167418>Has access to lots of random coloured furry shit>Everybody rejects it and makes John Smith default male humanAbsolutely based players
>>608192603>furry shitBut none of the races are furry
>>608192586Woah, is it so hard to see how big this game is going to be from what we have?
>>608191585thats's still a ggantic difference. og bg 1 and 2 weren't turn-based, were they?
>>608192752Yeah, it is. Considering we don't even have the entirety of Act 1
>>608170529>the character models, maps and UI look like basic Unity templatesif you can use your imagination with 8x8 pixel NES sprites, you can use it for this too
>>608192795If anything that just brings BG3 closer to being faithful to D&D. But you don't care about that, you just want your member-berries
>>608158676100% not. EA = death.
>>608192179kek what a loser.
>>608193020yeah, so what, i DO want my member berries!
>>608193280That's nice.
>>608192913What a retarded excuse.
>>608193020>that just brings BG3 closer to being faithful to D&DWho cares? People wanted bg3 not because it's dnd, but because it's baldurs gate.
>>608193390Is that why people played the first BG? Weird.
>>608167418>we worked hard on this!>only like 5 preset faces to pick fromThey couldn't even be bothered to add sliders or anything to it.
>>608158824RPGs are all about being a dating sim.
>>608193484>Talking about bg3.>"However, 20 years ago..."No one would give a shit about turn-based if it was just dnd game and not fucking sequel to everybody's favorite real-time rpg series.
>>608158676>2 years in early accessWhen is this shit actually coming out? Or is it like ark evolved and will keep fleecing retards?
>>608193867allegedly coming out next year.the fact that its already been in EA for two years and now another is just ridiculous.
>>608193382Yeah, not having an imagination is a retarded excuse to not play a game.
>>608193817My point is you're assuming everybody is playing the game for the same exact reason you are, dumbass. There are some people that want the game to be closer to DnD, some who never even played the other BG games, some who didn't like the previous games but are trying this one, etc etc. Stop projecting and think.
>>608170014I liked the one where the orc futa was a premature ejaculator that came as soon as the whore got naked.
>>608193020But it's going to be based on one of those terrible modern D&Ds and not 1st/2nd/3rd edition. Why would you want to be faitful to shit?
>>608158824It's the same with Witcher 3 but it has amazing quests.
>>608193817The only thing I've ever seen talked about for Baldur's Gate here is how people want to fuck Aerie or Viconia or how the paladin dude is boring as fuck.
>>608194213Have you even tried 5e or are you just parroting /tg/ talking points for epic updoots
>>608194342I tried 4th edition and it was terrible.
>>608194469LollmaoRetard
Bad thread.
>>608164282>Nobody ever answered and it's just fags saying "it just is" or saying that's wrong5e is shit because it doesn't scale and has the depth of a puddle things that could've been remedied over time if Wizard actually made anything other than cash in tie ins like the Ravnica book. For actual explanation they reworked content into a terrible system that forces you to basically always be the same character if you pick a specific subclass, in earlier editions you had feats prestige and multiclassing to add depth to your build beyond roleplaying a different character but now feats are 90% fluff 10% ways to reroll a die in combat if you meet specific conditions gone are things like Cleave and Metamagic is something only Sorcerers get to apply minor changes to spells off a point systems. Worse than feats though is the change from flat numbers to advantage/disadvantage and resistance simplifying rolls and worse limiting results it might not seem like much to a lot of people but a level 6 fighter with 18 strength and flanking gets to attack with a +7 to hit rolling twice picking the highest simple and easy with old systems that same fighter is rolling one dice at +13 and if you do the math probably pretty close percentages except those same guys at level 20 are going to be +10 to hit vs somewhere around +30 totally unoptimized so in those 14 intervening levels the 5e fighter has barely changed and the system is toned down so that 5e fighter can kill things but at the same time it means anyone half competent can punch up many levels in 5e while in earlier versions he would die from something 4 levels up looking at him.
>>608194704Do you really believe you can't multiclass anymore
>>608194119>Well, not everyone plays baldurs gate for baldurs gate.This is how video game series die.I wouldn't have anything against it if it wasn't trying to capitalize on name of one of my favorite games.Baldurs gate 3 is a full-fledged new installment of baldurs gate and for some reason it' different genre from others games.I can't wait for bg4 action rpg and bg5 space sim.
>>608194892>action rpgThere already has been one.
>>608194805I believe that once you get a build going multiclassing will just make you slightly better at doing the exact same thing you were going to do anways instead of creating any substantial change in the playstyle. Yeah you can make a Kensei Monk/Ranger and get into some shenanigans with the hordekill abilities ranger gives you but thanks to the way actions are structured and all the specific use X way text you end up still severely limited.
>>608194892>different genreWhat a drama queen holy shit dudeIt's still a CRPG, it's just turn based now.
>yfw you didn't burn yourself out on an unfinished game, two whole years before it got released
>>608194941No one tried to sell them as bg3 and bg4.These are spinoffs.>>608195113Turn-based and real-time are two completely different types of gameplay.
>>608195260Pause and Play is basically turn based with extra button pushes.
>>608194998I play both 3.5 and 5e regularly. The playstyles are not that different. The biggest changes are the action economy and the options weapons have in combat, mostly.
>>608195260I didn't realize I was switching to a different game every time I hit the turn based button in pathfinder. Neat! I got two games for the price of one!
>>608169847No, I made a chaste character for this reason
>>608195348Yeah, but pause and play doesn't turn game in original sin.
>>608195568Again, in English please.
>>608195379I play both and you are either a liar or bad at both systems, nothing lasts past the end of combat in 5e.
>>608195791You call me a liar and then lie right after. Hilarious.
>>608195791>nothing lasts past the end of combat in 5e.NTA, but could you explain what you mean? I'm struggling to grasp what you mean.
>>608196096He's saying that there are no effects that can be applied during combat that last after combat. Which is plainly false.
>>608196096If you summon something there is no bindingIf you create something it will fall apart quicklyThere's no such thing as a proper buff spell as they all require concentration and have a very limited duration for example enlarge person was changed from a flat number boost that lasts 1 minute per level and is set and forget to 1 minute concentration and an extra 1d4 damage with no bonus to attacking.Barbarians just to get rage for an entire fight off each use and recieve no negative once a rage endsPermanency doesn't exist and a the only spells that last a long period are either not designed for player use (cast here every day for a year to make permanent) or utility (arcane lock)Abilities exist for the sake of doing stuff in one combat and then using them again the next time combat happens.
>>608158676I love Shadowcute!
>>608197157Again, you're wrong. There are spells that last longer as you level up, and some become permanent. Such as bestow curse.
>>608197435Oh wow an offensive spell that again falls squarely in the not designed for player use slot because against enemies it effectively lasts the duration of combat because if you somehow manage to curse a recurring enemy they will just get the curse removed between fights. There is no permanent blindsight except through diam fiat or items that involve the retarded attunement system, there is no way to set up permanent arcane sight to detect magical aura, there is no way to set up any other kind of permanent buffs to party members because that would again go against the retarded attunement system. Fuck off.
>>608196162>>608197157Ahh, I see.The only spells I really remember lasting through combat were Armor of Agathys, Find Familiar, Alarm, and, uh... I can't remember anything else. Granted, I usually play UNGA or Rogue for that sweet Cunny Action, so my familiarity with spells is pretty limited.
>>608197776>bitches how it's not designed for player use>then claims there's nothing that can be permanently applied to charactersYou mean nothing like... a curse? And there isn't permanent blindsight because that shit is fucking broken as fuck.And bestow curse isn't the only thing that can be applied that lasts outside of combat, you're just being disingenuous on purpose.
>>608197157>If you summon something there is no bindingI hate 5e as much as anyone but there is literally a spell called Planar Binding in the system that allows you to bind any outer planar creature. I once played a Divination wizard that used it daily to keep a summoned demon bound to him for a number of weeks.
>>608171584Ayyy kek
>>608158676it will be good, but not gr8 for most. But ppl who rly like dos will enjoy it as gr8 game.
>>608197157I mean, the examples of you being wrong are legion, but just offhandedly.>If you create something it will fall apart quicklyCreation spell duration range twenty four hours to a minute. Channel Divinity: Artisan's blessing can make permanent things>If you summon something there is no bindingNot only is this wrong, there is literally a spell called Planer Binding and it lasts twenty four hours.>There's no such thing as a proper buff spell as they all require concentration and have a very limited durationFor example, the non-concentration spells like Deathward and aid that both 8 hours, or Nystul's that last 24 hours, or the numerous others?>Barbarians just to get rage for an entire fight off each use and recieve no negative once a rage endsYikes, barbarians aren't fatigued for the same duration post fight as the sub 60 seconds they took to finish!>Permanency doesn't existGood riddance, shitty spell. Sorry you can't make your character a spell effect Christmas tree starting when you hit level 5 spells.
>>608199304God you are one obscene faggotMundane only and inexpenive for bothPlanar binding costs 1000 gold for 24 hours and the best you can summon will be like cr 5 which by that point is worth little more than as a pack muleNeither of those are buffs you faggot. Name me anything that lasts more than one fight and isn't concentration that increases the effectiveness of a character in combat not a bit of temp hp or a one off save from death an actual increase to damage dealtI mean just fuck you my complaint about barbarian was the resource system and the fact that there is no limitation in rounds like in other editions that means you just turn it on when a fight starts if available with no decision makingKill yourself
>>608186775>>608186916Where is it set?Sword Coast?
>>608200075Yes.
>>608200648FFS. Boring.
>>608200910>A game called Baldur's Gate set near and in Baldur's GateOH MY GOD HOW COULD THEY
>>608199823>M-mundane onl-yy and inexpenive for b-both, what I r-really mean is-You are here.>Planar binding costs 1000 gold for 24 hours and the best you can summon will be like cr 5 which by that point is worth little more than as a pack muleYou'd be character level 9 when you can cast planer binding. You could summon, for example, a cr5 barbed devil with 110 hit points. For caparison sake, a level 9 barbarian with 20 (!) points of constitution will have 113 hps.>Neither of those are buffs you faggot. Name me anything that lasts more than one fight and isn't concentration that increases the effectiveness of a character in combat not a bit of temp hp or a one off save from death an actual increase to damage dealt.Aid isn't temp hit points - it increases your hit point maximum and thus stacks with temp hit points. If you were say, a celestial warlock, divine soul sorcerer, etc. with upcast aid and something like inspiring leader, you can literally double your party's hp for hours for the cost of a feat. But since you're like a little kid that just thinks DAMAGE DAMAGE DAMAGE, crown of stars does not take concentration, increases your damage, and lasts an hour - more than one fight.>I mean just fuck you my complaint about barbarian was the resource system and the fact that there is no limitation in rounds like in other editions that means you just turn it on when a fight starts if available with no decision making>Kill yourselfAlthough I admit it is depressing knowing people are retarded as you live and breath, it's not that depressing that I would take that step.
you guys convinced me to reinstallwhat class/race should I play?
>>608178053Semi-unlikely. They initially said PHB only but I think Wyll is perfect for Hexblade, plus if they have enough functionality modders will at it. There is already a huge Warlock oriented mod that adds it but has to fudge some stuff to work
>>608201851gnome wizard
>>608201854Will already has a Fiend patron.
>>608200910Where did you expect it to be set?
>>608202009I don't think Mizora even has datamined lines about the power she gives Wyll, and since she isn't even in the game yet they can change that if Hexblade is on the table

I'm impressed by all the music I've heard in the game. After Larian's OG composer who was phenomenal died of cancer I was worried their music would take a bad dive, but the new guy they got is very good.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFwy93rtnm0
>>608158824This is a board that simps for fucking Cass in New Vegas, who while not just looking like a NPC from New Vegas is suppose to be 37 and is a alcoholic roastie.
>>608202020They should have kept with the pattern and kept moving south.
>>608203054It was a different time.We were young.It was basically ss
>>608203729>It was a different time.It really wasn't. New Vegas came out at the advent of SJWism and even had SJW elements, but because /v/ enjoyed it they ignore that.
>>608165514DnD combat is fun. You have to have highly tailormade encounters per level though. You have to have the perfect amount of enemies that are the perfect AC to not be annoying but make you have to strategize with your turns and spell slots.
>>608203910>even had SJW elementsI was too busy looking at the corpses of the women raped to death by powder gangers outside the starting town.
>>608204109What about the champion of the legion arena being a unarmed woman with no armor who can somehow kill legionaries (including a centurion) in a one Vs one where the opponent is given actual protection and a weapon? Forget about that?
>>608158676it already is, lol.
>>608204307Yes. At that point, I was speeding through to clear the quest.
BG3 literally has the best combat out of any of these type of games and it's miles above DoS2
>>608158676It looks like it'll be good but I'm not touching it till it's done. I'm going to play Wrath of the Righteous in the meanwhile (and Rogue Trader if that somehow comes out first.)
>>608164531ask me how I know you jack off to only hentai.
Just play Pathfinder instead of this garbage, it's not even an RPG
>>608203910True, given how much /v/ spergs out at companions not being virgins i can imagine current /v/ sperging out at someone like Cass.
>>608204613I think you read the post wrong
>>608170513>Buffing: The gameNo, fuck off to pathfinder general
>>608170474Never played 4th but the what little of the rulebook I read made it feel like WoW.Few options and the classes came across as roles.Damage,controller...etc.Maybe a good dm could fix that.Correct me if I'm wrong.
>>608173081Is 5e no-fun streamlined shit that restricts their players way too much? YesIs pathfinder a better system? No, adding 3 actions aside pathfinder has a lot of retardation, also the setting is too silly
>>608205321>Is 5e no-fun streamlined shit that restricts their players way too much? YesExplain as I don't play tabletop. Baldur's Gate 3 seems perfectly fine and fun so unless it's 5e in name only I don't see why people are hating on it so much.
