Forget Barbenheimer, I'm going full on Balder's Field and playing both.

So far, Baldur's Gate III seems deeper. Just starting on Starfield.

I'm nearing 100 hours in BG3 and absolutely loving it. I'm not even into the full Act 2 yet, still making my way through the act 1 - act 2 transition/passages.

Choices matter, characters matter, story matters... shit is so fun

I've got Starfield through gamepass just waiting to go but I'm still trying to get motivated to start...

If it helps, you have to put in some work. The first group of missions for the Freestar Rangers has a dialogue option where you can ask for a promotion and the Marshal laughs in your face and tells you to get back to work. That’s like 5 missions in and 3-4 hours. No taking the faction over in a couple of hours.

its kinda wild to me that balders gate 2 was i think 23 years ago and then i suddenly hear about 3

Still existentialism related.

BG3 is definitely the deeper game IMHO.

Starfield has some charm -- it's also got a lot of slog and grind and some serious issues with immersion.
