The more annoying aspects of modern gaming are completely absent in Baldur's Gate 3.

I'm really tempted to buy it, but I have little time to play nowadays. It seems like the kind o game that you need to invest time to enjoy.

It is incredibly long. I've got over 50 hours now, and I'm not even seemingly anywhere near the titular city that is the game's namesake. I know it's in the game; I have quests to visit people there. I don't know how many acts there are, possibly 3; I've not even finished act 1 and I've been glued to this game super hard.

But you can also save literally at any time. Mid combat, mid sentence of dialogue, wherever. So you can always stop exactly where you are, at least.

It’s definitely meant to be savored.

That's a good way to put it. I am savoring this game.
