I’m still holding out for Baldur’s Gate 3. I’ll even pay a tenner for it.
I pirated it, beat it within a week, and then bought it because I still had another couple hundred hours of things I wanted to experiment with, as well as play co-op.
It’s worth the price.
I have played it so much honor mode is almost trivially easy. Well, after act 1 anyway. Ragzlin has ended more than one run. Usually because I used the horn and those fucking ogres draw the entire place in to a fight.
I’d love to replay it but no matter how many mods I install the story’s always the fucking same. exact same problem I had with DOS2; adding legendary items made the gameplay more fun but ultimately same conclusion… think I need to wait years between modded playthroughs so I can enjoy the story again (or try the roguelike mod)
The overall plot, there is a worm in your head and you need to stop the BBEG from invading the city and killing everyone doesn’t change, no.
The stories with the individual characters change dramatically based on your choices. That’s the main reason I kept playing through it. Needed to see what happens if I let Gail have the crown, needed to see if I could save Karlach. Wanted to let Lae’zel take the lead and see what happens. What if I’m the dark urge but don’t want to be? Lots of different small stories.
The problem is, I nailed it the first time so it’s hard to change the story meaningfully without ruining it. Tried to do a dark urge playthrough, and

almost immediately, my friend ate Gale.
I can’t live like this.
