Thread: Baldurs Gate 3

    Sorc is a fun class but the PHB subclasses are dogshit.


    They're really limiting themselves by only using the PHB, all the best shit is in XGE.

    Sorcerer is probably what I'll end up playing. Someone on reddit pointed out that they seem to have added a single extra baseline spell for each Dragon Sorcerer type, which is a nice addition imo as it can help balance out the advantages of each type. Definitely looking forward to seeing their take on meta magic and other features as well.

    I'm just sitting here, waiting for the monks.
    Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

    I am sure they will start adding more after post launch. They just need to get the basics down first. If I recall, the ranger is the updated ranger. Not playing the game till next patch hits, so I'm busy playing pathfinder rn.

    They can do endless dlc with all the subclasses. For instance, I want to play a hexblade... well we could get a dlc dealing with that. And if the studio doesnt want to do it? Well people are gonna do what they want to do and mod the game themselves.

    Nah, the Ranger doesn't feel anything like the DnD one.

    That's the fun part, modders already have put Sorcerer and Bard in the game, complete with subclasses that WON'T be in the full game.

    Yup. It's always the modders that does that do the job for the company.

    Mate, that ship has sailed the moment they announced BG3. We had enough arguing back then.

    Great looking additions to the game but without level 5, I think I've got to put this game on hold. 5 solo and 3 group play throughs is enough. Level 5 and I could bring myself to get back in game.

    I apologize for not sifting through 100 pages. But has anyone provided their thoughts between BG3, and Pathfinder: WotR?

    I am currently playing Pathfinder, but am more interested in the 5e system.

    Enjoying wotr much more atm its such a great game but its also a complete package and probably the best crpg i have ever played. That could change when bg 3 is finished though we will see.

    Only thing i could complain about is the crusade system but i think its got potential and i heard some tweaks are coming.

    Wotr was also pretty buggy att launch but i have experienced no bug at all lately.

    Thanks for the feedback! From Verses reviews i've seen between the two, it seems that WotR offers more, even if it is a system that I am not a big fan of.

    And yeah, the crusade system is pretty annoying lol. Managing Morale is a pain in the butt lol. Was thinking of looking for a mod that disables Morale lol.

    BG is so far from release, content wise, that it's pointless to compare the two IMO.

    They will be nearly identical in features, depth, and content amount (BG might even have more) when the game actually releases and I like a lot of the ways they did things in BG a lot better. Don't get me wrong, WOTR is fun as hell.
