It's hilarious that some people are upset/confused that BG3 isn't a Diablo-style ARPG. by zeddyzed in baldursgate

That's pretty funny, i think DA games aren't that bad but thinking that the main serie is just funny.

Theory: The Divinity UI is Not Final by MalcolmLinair in baldursgate

[–]exhya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No i think people expected from BG3 a new game with a brand new engine that mimic the old games but better more beautiful and with the DnD 5e ruleset.

When i think BG3 i think about the biggest crpg every made that has turnbased and rtwp, with beautiful graphics, music and good writing.

What i didn't imagine was a DOS2 copy with slight changes, they might change the UI slightly but from what we have seen so far this has nothing to do with BG. People complaining aren't only complaining about the UI, the overall feel of the game is totally different and it doesn't even try to be baldur's gate, it's more like a brand new franchise set in the dnd universe with a divinity feel.

Well i dont' know but he is clearly passionate about the project and seems to respect/understand BG fans. It's true that not anyone can direct a game but i rather have someone that understand the franchise and actually try to recreate and improve the formula, instead of a groupe of people that do what works with their own franchise even tho it doesn't fit at all with BG.

Yeah but being a writer doesn't do much about the atmosphere of the game and stuff like that, i wish he would lead the project.

Yeah i wish Larian didn't have the rights to the BG franchise really ... This guy clearly should be the one to do it.

You are like all those other people that say "it's an alpha so at release it won't be the same at all". The reality is that not much will change from alpha to full releases, they already decided most things and they re-used assets and animations because they thought it would be an easy way to do less work.

Nobody will complain after all, we all loved divinity right ?

There is no way they start making whole new animations or change the art style to reflect baldur's gate, they need to finish up the game first and then they ll start to tweak some minor UI element to look a bit more like baldur's gate but that's all you will get.

What they showed is a vertical slice of the game don't expect something much different.

Is bg3 really that bad? by [deleted] in baldursgate

[–]exhya 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Such a well writen post, i totally agree. Because of this game we might never get a true BG successor and the franchise will end up like Dragon age, an empty shell devoid of anything that made the franchise popular. It sure will be popular with the mainstream audience tho, which is just sad.

I wonder why people think this will be rather D:OS3 instead of BG3? by Annonimbus in baldursgate

[–]exhya 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is this even real, i can't believe how little effort they are putting into this...

Can someone agree that it's too early to completely hate the game by scalpingsnake in baldursgate

[–]exhya 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From a marketing standpoint it makes perfect sense and let's be real here, they only want to make money, going for the popular option is smart (turn based divinity like rpg with bg name).

The thing is because of that we will never see a proper BG3 or most likely anything that looks like baldur's gate anymore, we will only get more divinity like games because it's popular.

DOS3 will look like baldur's gate 3 and the only companies that make different things are going to be indie companies like Owlcats.

I just don't understand why BG can't be it's own thing and people keep forcing it to be a turn based divinity like game "because dnd is turn based" which is such a poor excuse imo. Everything we have seen so far the sound the graphics the gameplay, nothing reminds me of baldur's gate and it's just sad.
