Yeah, that’s how I feel about new Vegas with realism mods.

What are your thoughts on act 3/ the ending? I really liked the game up to that point but the issue is that game understandably defers all the story to act 3, when you actually reach baldur's gate, so half the dialogue in acts 1 and 2 is just setup. The issue is that I think the ending is literally several tiers worse than Mass Effect 3 and retroactively detracts so much from all the setup.

Act 3 was incredibly disappointing and the only good thing of that act was fighting Gortash at his coronation, and you can't do that unless you don't care about fucking up the story


I would've switched act 2 and 3 places and saved Ketheric for second last final boss, and actually fought the netherbrain in the colony, it would've been so cathartic

Just started playing it and I think I might be somewhere in the middle of act 2, so far its been a blast. I like how the game takes you serious and most of the actions you take actually have some noticable impact on how things play out, some more some less but way better than in other games which advertise themselves as having meaningful choices. It's also very funny how I first thougt that all Githyanki speak as autistically as Lae'zel does, but nah thats just how she is.

>several tiers worse than Mass Effect 3
Up until now I've miraculously managed to avoid any spoilers about the ending except that you fight the big brain, but when Ilithids are involved thats pretty much expected. I guess I'll find out in due time just how bad they shit the bed in the end.

I have hard time believing that, considering lack of backlash.

Despite also having 3 in the title, BG3 is not the culmination of a bigger narrative where your choices radically changed the story over 2 previous games.

You spelled Karlach wrong

Is it really that good?
Was contemplating buying a PS5, would it make it worth it?
How many hours of play did you get out of it before running out of road?

Modding is overrated! I don't need DNF2001 Restoration Project and Sonic Forces Overclocked! I play Duke Nukem Forever and Sonic Forces on my Series X just fine! I am happy and I am fully satisfied with my purchases!

Why are PC gamers like this?

It's like atheists vs abrahamics. They feel the need to debate the abrahamics rather than recognize that, in the absence of any substantial claims on the abrahamic side, they can eliminite abrahamism completely by promoting agnosticism.

The PS5 console was kinda rushed from what I've heard, I'd just do the PC version. Generally a single game not exclusive to the console isn't enough to justify the purchase even if the console turns out to be good.

Bro, it's a joke. There was an anon who was defending consoles so much they unironically thought the mods make the games worse. So insufferable.

>>40699
you're the one asking if you should buy a 500 dollar brick for "1" game,that is just worse on it,the answer was always going to be no
