i’m playing via geforce now, and was an early access purchase—i was a huge dos 1/2, bg 1/2?fan. i love crpgs is general. i think the thing to keep in mind is that this is a somewhat niche style of rpg.

bg3 is as close to a perfect crpg as i’ve played. the story is great, the the companions are interesting, the options are nearly endless. it’s just everything you’d want.

that said, this isn’t skyrim, and you don’t get your hand held with the quest tracker. there’s quite a bit going on with quests as well as all the mechanics.

if you don’t have experience with games in this rpg genre and you don’t enjoy reading a wiki from time to time, you might want to watch some youtube first.

overall the game is a masterpiece, but it doesn’t have as broad of an appeal as some other rpgs. if you’re already a crpg fan, then it’s basically christmas and you’ve been very good this year.
