- Baldur's Gate 3 reviewed on PC by Leana Hafer.
I don't want to say every CRPG going forward should aspire to be like Baldur's Gate 3. Not everything needs to be nearly this big and ambitious, or even this dense. But it is a landmark moment in the genre, and if I had to point to one paragon that I would like everyone else making these to take inspiration from, this is absolutely it. I waited 14 years for the stars to align again so that we could get the ideal mix of crunchy, tactical, old-school RPG combat, an epic and well-written story with complex characters and lots of meaningful choices, and a level of polish and cinematic presentation that let me see the sweat and the sorrow on characters' faces in their darkest hours. Plenty of other games have partially completed that list, but the last time they all came together was Dragon Age: Origins in 2009. And I can finally say that game, and its Infinity Engine predecessors, have a worthy successor that’s not just matched their RPG greatness, but surpassed it. Baldur’s Gate 3 is just about everything I could have asked for.

119 hours in...im in act 3. i want to restart LMAO this game is addicting asf
On my second playthrough , being legit evil and it's like a whole different experience
It's experience is nearly the same as a table top game of D&D with the sheer amount of options to do, and branching storylines, with a few house-rules from Larian. It is THE Roleplaying videogame.
It’s like people forgot about Divinity Original Sin 2. That game had some unbelievable openness in its story and gameplay.
Divinity original sin 2 on release was like a Bethesda game, buggy mess and often unable to finish because of bugs. Now, it is great. And BG 3 on release is great, that's a big difference between Divinity original sin 2 and BG 3. So people didn't forget about Divinity, they just played it when it was released and because of it, it's written in gaming history as an average game even though, now it is in a state of masterpiece.
@@Frantisek_Bobisud you… you realize that this game has been in early access’s for 3+ years right? Released in the exact same state as DOS2 was. Educate before you say anything
@@Cheesefist You realize that divinity original sin 2 was also in early access for one year? educate before you say anything.
@@Cheesefist Early access is early access. It is not a finished product. Many people do not play with Early access titles, because they want to experience the finished product, but they do buy the game when it comes out of Early access, and that is the state they judge the game.
Best game I’ve played since elden ring, and definitely the best I’ve played in this genre. Top 5 all time games
Played 80 hours. Game was giving me chills all the way. Whar a story. What excellent work
Is this better than divinity original sin 2?
@@archie7288way, waaaaay better. Its so much more coherent and twists are so plausible. The story is such a tightly knit, dense affair.

He is appreciating them taking their time to review the game fully
@@tatienouorest3358This ^^^
Yes, this really is a once in a decade kind of game. Crazy it is also a $60 no strings attached, no shops, no passes, no DLC, just one huge and complete game.
Yeah remember that?!
You mean the way games used to be.
This is what happens when you have a company that produces a game without the chokehold of a massive multinational conglomerate making all the decisions. This studio self made, self funded, and self published the game. They had complete control. Imagine if more studios had that.
Once in a decade for CRPGs maybe. We’re living in the best era of gaming in history as of now. Elden ring released last year and this time Tears of the Kingdom, Street Fighter Six and Baldur’s Gate 3 all released within a few months of each other. Counter Strike and Path of Exile both getting very promising sequel games very soon. And Indie games have been completely popping off for even longer like 5 6 years with masterpieces in their respective genres and focuses like Hollow Knight Celeste Slay the Spire Hades. AAA titles are finally capturing what we thought possible with the current gaming technology, and indie devs have much much greater access to more powerful tools letting them more easily and reliably see through on their visions
Not sure why y'all pretending this to be a new thing. Few comes in mind tho. Ff16, deadspace 2, ghost of spart etc.

This is the best ign's been since they started reviewing bravo.
he didnt 100% it like he said though now way in only 130 hour he missed a heap
These are the same guys that gave it seven out of 10 on the early access review. Funny how they suddenly changed their mind when everyone else gave it high score. It can't have improved that much from early access.
@@cloudGGsdunno mate, speaking from someone who’s had it since it was released as early access A LOT has changed, they’ve had years of it in early access with player feedback to develop it further.
@@cianmacleod5701 The technical issues mean it's a 9 out of 10 at best. Any other game without favoritism would have been scored 9 out of 10 for those issues.
@@jrs2071 you can easily 100% it in 130hours, might miss some content due to choices made but you can run every questline to a completion in that time.
Not just the 10/10 score, but the fact that this review was delayed because the reviewer was so invested in the game and insisted to see the ending shows how monumental this game is.
And adds credibility to the reviewer.

Thanks 🙏🏽
70 hours in and just started act 3. To say its been worth my time is an understatement. This is like showing up to play dnd and your DM has every battle map, mini, a binder of world lore ready to tie into your own backstory, voices every character perfectly, lets you pickpocket the boss because its fun, and tells you they got nowhere to be so you can play for the next four days.
Meanwhile, I'm 70 hours in, on my main playthrough, and have just had a party at camp in Act 1.
In my defence, at least 10 hours of that was spent trying new things with Withers.
70 hours is act 1 full completion tbh. 😊
Tells you something that this game took 6-7 years to make for that to be realized in video game form.
Tells you something else when 9000 people took 6 years to make Diablo 4 yet 400 people took 6 years to make BG3@@krampusthestoryteller1416
Hey man
You recommend this game for a newbie like me who never played a CRPG before? And is it beginner friendly?
Take notes. This is NOT a multiplayer shooter, this is NOT a games-as-a-service. This does NOT have microtransactions. It's just a great GAME. Fix yourself, industry, and follow this shining example of what gaming should really be about.
The problem is, it won't make nearly as much money as a the latest FC24 so on the eyes of shareholders, this game will be a failure. Many complaints like, EA, Activision etc put profits over everything.
@@mullenio4200 a failure huh... its not my guy 💀💀 you just too caught up that those games reel in more money
The time dilation with this game... it's like the opposite of psychedelics. You think 20 min has gone by, then look at the clock, and it has been hours, and it's now 3am, and you have to be up at 6.
Im trying to not play during the work week for that very reason 😂.
Play this on psychedelics for an even more immersive experience
Its 3am.....on Wednesday.
And at that point you may as well make a pot of coffee and get 3 more hours in 🤣
FACTS
Honestly IGN, I’ve been impressed with your coverage of this game over the past few weeks, keep it up because we need more respectable voices in the industry
Totally agree. Promising sign that they aren’t *completely* hijacked by corporate agendas *yet*
Respectable?? 😂😂 They're rating system is horrible, ign rates alien isolation as mediocre but then make videos how great the levels are ,etc. So respectable 😂😂😂

Hopefully ones that aren’t from mentally ill gender changers
I'm SO glad for Larian. I've been playing their games for years and always felt they were underrated. They finally get recognition they deserve!
This !
I’m 50 years old and started playing on a Atari 2600 and THIS…. THIS right there, is the best game ever done in the history of video games.
From Adventure to Baldur´s Gate 3, what a journey has it been.
I'm in my mid-40s, and I'm 100% with you
Then you should give a try to Divinity Original Sin 2, as it's better than BG3
Ok, let's not get carried away
@@jase276 Carried away how? please name me another game that has the kind of Role play elements where all your decisions actually matter like in Baldurs gate 3? It sets the bar...
As someone who played Dragon Age Origins so many times as a teen, playing this game feels like meeting a long lost friend and it made me so happy.
To me Baldur’s Gate 3 feels like a fully realized version of DAO
Wtf are you talking about? I've spoken to many people over Discord, and all of them said categorically BG3 is nothing like DA:O.
@mattandrews2594 have you played DAO? Yes the fighting is different but the feeling is very much in the same vein
@@mattandrews2594 Plenty of Dragon Age Origins fans (myself included) can easily see a similarity in Baldur's Gate 3. It's a very special RPG feeling that is rare to come by
@@DeepDimpleDemon So...I should've even bother with BG3 then?
Developers nowadays seem to be in despair, cautioning players: "Don't let yourself be spoiled by the quality of Baldur's Gate 3". In today's gaming landscape, games have to be released with bugs, feature microtransactions, and consistently provide less than what was initially promised, and we have to accept it. This situation reminds me of the release of The Witcher 3.
Such an incredibly well made game. It very much deserves a 10 and at the very least a 9.
Anyone giving less than 10 has to be biased. Even the sometimes clunky camera or little bugs can't touch the 10. Especially when we know that Larian will fix these little issues pretty quick
Remnant 2 imo is a 9 and re4 remake is a 9 but bg3 is easily a 10 the likes of Elden ring or tw3 or even rdr2 and nier automata
@@YaBoiFetz Every opinion is biased by definition...
If you're out here saying "you cannot give this less than a 10", guess what? That's your bias. By definition. You're biased, like everyone else.
@@YaBoiFetzThe ending is kinda underwhelming compared to the rest of the game tbh
@@TheTakenKing999agreed 👍
Not my type of game but cool
Bg3 is boring
The turned based combat immediately turned me off
@@Jsheesh it's based on dnd so yeah
when you leave act2 you will make a camp upon the city border.walk around you can find a place that overlook the city’s night view and the background music will change as you get there，most wholesome gaming experience in recent years❤
"most wholesome gaming experience in recent years"
Nah, that's finding Scraps and the owlbear cub cuddling in your camp. brought me to tears.
You know a game is well crafted when your camp looks like the area you are in. They literally made so many different camp versions just to match the area you are in so it doesn't break immersion. Larian is a bright light in the dark gaming industry
One of my favorite things! They really could've had a standard camp but its so much more immersive when every single area is unique!
This is actually a recent addition. For a while in early access camp was the same no matter where you were haha.
There’s even two different camps for act 3
@@buddhajew6259there is way more than 2 and one depend of a choice option
There’s more than 2, and even a hotel room if you rent it out.
It's going to be BG3 and TOTK for GOTY, no doubt. Sorry Starfield, you just don't even compare.
Game of the decade. You truly feel like the stars aligned with this game.
Especially since we may have to wait another Decade for The Elder Scrolls 6 to come out! Hahahahahahahaha 😂!!!
Is this better than divinity original sin 2?
yes. Which is saying something considering how amazing Div 2 was@@archie7288
that is so true. D&D tabletop is huge right now, Larian has proved themselves at being able to create amazing CRPG's, and the fact that Baudler's Gate has the name recognition that it has. It is the perfect storm in gaming.
@@archie7288IMHO yes better in any way... it's like they improve in every aspect, maybe except the story but it's personal prefrence.
What a delightful game. I’m 45hs in and haven’t finished act 1 yet… savouring each moment, trusting the dice, not spamming quicksaves and living with my decisions. Amazing how many choices and how they affect the game. 10/10 indeed. To me it is like two of my favourite RPGs, Neverwinter nights 2 and Divinity 2, had a love child: Baldurs Gate 3 .
You sir understand the meaning of such game. And will be able to replay it a hundred times and still see new things , encounter a different story each time. Kudos.
Ha! My man appreciates true RPG games, just like me.
Also, all of the games you mentioned are great examples of multi-player games! Neverwinter nights 2 is such a beast of a game. Too bad Obsidian now decided to make Avowed solo only...

What is crazy about this game as well is how a new game with new characters and classes will have a very different story. Every story arc plays out differently depending on who is in your group. Currently on my second playthrough and it's WAY different than my first.
Yea. It didn't need to have playable origin(companion) characters like every other RPG out there. But they did it anyway.
@@zebwiz1900 Nah it's not like other games at all lol. Have you even played the game? The main storyline completely changes depending on who you have in your party. Not different companion missions with the exact same main quest like most games. The story fundamentally changes. Literally no other game like it.
@@FilthyCasualVR most of this is illusion of choice. the story remains mostly the same (you can boom Gale, but that's a gimmick), and the game has so many endings because there are multiple NPCs you can save or get killed depending on what you do and they show up or they dont, giving many ending combinations. There is a lot of choice in this game but the main story remains the same with only you deciding how it ends. The illusion of choice is shown clearly in the last act with the two villiains and who you "choose" to side up with or not side with either.
@@ad-zh5otwow you are incredibly wrong.
@@cirescythelol you're naive he's completely right
This game destroys starfield… Bethesda should be ashamed…
Started a second playthrough and it’s wildly different. 10/10 100%
A genuine masterpiece. So happy to have discovered Divinity Original Sin 2 five years ago - only to see Larian Studios elevate their craft to such amazing heights.
Absolutely. You can really tell how passionate they are
To be it feels like a fully realized DOS2. That game was just missing the story and voice acting this one had. Combat wise divinity might actually be better
@@iTrustInTheMusicyes! Couldn’t agree more. DOS2 just lacked something for me. This has everything. The rolls, the acting, the cinematic, the immersion, the pacing, welcoming interface, everything is much better comparatively.
@@georgemorley1029i was surprised how well they handle the skillchecks. Failing does not lock you out of content but it alters your path in huge ways. So you have the tension of the rolls, tactics when it comes to tilting odds in your favor and dont have to be afraid to miss half of the game due to bad luck.
Don’t get use to it 😂 other devs are crying over the “unrealistic standards” of this game. Aka blizzard
The game is a Nat 20.

Right on
Critical success!
There’s only one score you can give this game really 👍 we don’t get games of this quality very often.
bro... not a freaking microtransaction in sight. GAME OF THE CENTURY RIGHT HERE!
Sorry, but act 3 is not finished and some aspects of writing are just atrocious.
It really drags down the game.
@@Rzepik yeah if we go through the datamined stuff it's pretty obvious they cut a lot of the stuff in Act 3. Especially Upper City.
@@spartacus18954 game of the century is a big reach imo
@@Rzepikact3 is completely fine. Loads of content. A bit more buggy than act 1 though. Other than that its amazing.
careful, AAA devs are going to cry again after the review.
Anybody else here after the game awards?
This game is incredible and it deserves all the success it will gain. Other game developers should be worried, THIS is the new standard we should expect as a consumer!
Divinity original sin 2 is the standard. Before that it was Divinity original sin 1. Larian just kills it constantly
Just expect 10 years before each game but other than that great!
If by "new" you mean "the way games used to be" then sure. Okay.
@@christopherdettlaff2246 Which game are you thinking of?
Developers will start making games like this when consumers stop buying the bad games. But gamers love to buy bad games. Diablo Immortal made $500 Million. Seems gamers like bad games.
no microtransactions for shitty skins and armour. This is a 2023 game with the heart of the golden age of gaming. This is a gem
Starting my second playthrough tonight, this game is a 10/10
Same here. BG3 is the only game made me try 2nd playthrough in 10 years.
Most complete game out of the box since the early 2000s. What a shame how far the game industry has fallen. Much praise for Larian on showing other companies,l that it can still be done!
Except there is no box 😢
Definitely agree that the bigger companies have gotten lazier, but games are also orders of magnitudes bigger than they used to be, so there are always going to be more bugs, because they are so much more difficult to detect.
Well, there's plenty of indie games that hold themselves to the standard of 'don't release it till it's finished'. It's just the AAA industry that has adopted all kinds of slimy business practices.
Complete? Game is raw af. The only playable act for now is 1 and half of second
Uh DS3, Elden Ring, Sekiro, Bloodborne, GTA 5, TW3, Doom eternal, Skyrim, New Vegas, indie games like Hollow Knight, terraria etc. You are just objectively lying for no reason, BG3 is a great game but people have got dementia for not realising we have been getting great games for the past 10 years, you just need to use your eyes and not be blinded by hatred.
This game is pure excellence!
I'm convinced this masterpiece will be studied by many game developers for years to come.
2023 should be awarded as the best year of gaming with the amount of 10/10 games coming out.
LOL, that's a joke right?

Larian Studios deserves all of the praise they are getting! The game is a masterpiece!
Larian Studios is what Bioware could've been had they not sold out to EA. Sorry Bioware, but there's a new king in town.
Larian needs to make kotor 3.
That would be a dream come true
Swtor exists which means kotor 3 will never happen unfortunately. According to the devs, it already happened in swtor, along with kotor 4, 5, 6 etc.
Dios te oiga 😢
Lucas Arts would probably let them do it. Lucas Arts likes to pretend KoTor2 doesn't exist because it's not "star wars-y" enough. They want something that's more safe, more generic, and not as experimental.

Dragon age origins is one of my favourite games of all time
The game has technical flaws, but they will be fixed. This is Larian, they can be trusted. What will be left is a great game for all times.
This game is an absolute masterpiece. This is like the holy grail among all single players pc games of today.
Surely game a GOTY award will fall short of the accolades this game desserves. In awe of this game and the path tjat it takes you on.
This game is indeed something else. Awesome review
8/10, simply for the fact that all characters look like they're made from recycled eraser heads.
Damn this year is busted. RE4 remake, deadspace remake, hi-firush, street fighter 6, tears of the kingdom, amnesia the bunker, baldur's gate 3, blasphemous 2, armored core 6, mortal Kombat 1, double dragon, spider man 2. Man such a crazy variety of games and all are absolutely breathtaking.

Not sure how we could ever ask for more from a video game. Absolutely insane.
Have it not be turn based.
@@MrSoloDolo20100 congrats, you missed the point
Well you could ask for them to clean the bugs out and improve stability.
It could use a battle royale tbh
@@MrSoloDolo20100 would give witcher 3 vibes
Starfield shitting its pants right now 😬
The reference to dragon age origins is really accurate, we've finally got a worthy successor to that classic of an RPG
Yeah but surpassed?
Ubisoft could learn a thing or two, specially concerning its increasing micro-transactions in the recent years
A lot of AAA companies can learn, but they won't.
100 coins to respec is a godsend.
Whose here after Game of the year award
10/10? Really?
Awesome! Tears of the Kingdom doesn't deserve GOTY.
Me and my other friends who liked turn based final fantacy stopped playing the series entirely qhen it went hack and slash. Dragon age was the next best thing. Soni look forward to this when it comes to console. Finally some more turn based/strategy fighting.
Yeah u can try to play the other one’s Divinity Original Sin 2 while u wait for Baldurs Gate 3. It’s the same studio & lots of fun & will get u ready for it ❤
man what's a nostalgic thing to see. BG2 was the revolution at its time and now BG3 is again the REVOLUTION. No one was brave enough to make BG3 because BG2 was such a legend BUT you guys at Larian Studios did and another LEGEND is born. What a masterpiece
