Playing a bard can get pretty close 🤔

The best thing about Baldur's Gate 3's companions is that they keep getting in your way in c/baldurs_gate_3@lemmy.world

I’m deep into act 3 now and this game does not pull punches. I’m loving it (even if it hurts sometimes)

'We haven't started on an expansion' to Baldur's Gate 3, Larian says, but it's not completely off the table in c/PCGaming@kbin.social

No 12-20 please, 5e is not balanced for that. I’d rather have a new adventure built on the same assets / engine, a majoras mask approach even.

Just me or the version number is still there?

You don’t seem to understand the comment. Shove is not nerfed, it’s overpowered. As a result the sleep spell is further nerfed (they already nerfed it by making it have a short duration) because enemies can just bonus action wake each other up, instead of being out of commission for multiple turns.

Baldur's Gate 3 hotfix is "cooking in the kitchen" and should release later today in c/baldurs_gate_3@lemmy.world

I’m sure it’ll address at least a couple of the issues I’m having. But considering how broken other games release and you basically need to wait weeks (or years if it’s cyberpunk) to get it in a playable state? This game is polished as fuck.

Because the enemy gets the same thing. I meant it nerfs the sleep spell.

Really enjoying finally having the full game but some small things have been slightly annoying:

they apparently forgot to disable the debug version label so there’s a massive version string floating around most of the time
I’m getting bad screen tearing even on tripple buffering.
can’t believe shove is still a bonus action. Sleep was already pretty nerfed, with shove as a bonus action it’s almost as useless as true strike.
some of the cutscene transitions are a bit janky here and there but nothing completely broken. Just an annoyance. Sometimes that means audio cuts halfway through sometimes that means the audio plays when the cutscene is still loading. Nothing game breaking so far.
some spells don’t seem to work consistently or correctly? Spiritual weapon will sometimes lose a turn. Complete skipped.

On the other hand, mage hand (hehe) finally interacts with buttons. But why can it attack and shove? And why limited per short rest?

Weird decisions I think. Sure 5e is pretty bad with balance and inconsistent rules and the game would’ve benefited from a better designed system like pathfinder 2e but some of these decisions don’t seem to improve on the issues just worsen them.

Rant aside: what an amazing game 🥰🥰

See you all on the other side 👋 in c/baldurs_gate_3@lemmy.world
