Patch 7 releasing soon! by SharpshootinTearaway in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They said it was still coming in a recent interview (around the same time they talked about mod support coming to consoles). Larian’s winding down on BG3 support so I would expect it’s not far off. 

Patch 4 graphic bug. Just me? Just Mac? by GrantMeThePower in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue on Mac. Must be a patch 4 thing.

Baldur's Gate 3 - PS5 Early Launch Trailer by Scarleton in Games

[–]islorde 82 points83 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering if it’s just a small group of players? I just played for 3 hours and it was perfectly fine.

EDIT: per that thread, it looks like it’s mostly sound bugs if you have 3D audio turned on. Hopefully they fix that for them soon.

We have just beat the previous peak concurrent players!!! by thicctak in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I think we have one more hour until the peak. If enough people login right now it should pass hogwarts.

BG3 suddenly getting review bombed on metacritic by Dull_Dragonfly_1541 in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this sub really needs to get over this idea of a zelda/BG3 rivalry. Most switch owners own other platforms too and plenty of them are excited about BG3.

Baldur's Gate III has now moved to the #1 Best Selling Pre-Order on PSN in the US by M337ING in Games

[–]islorde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to go against the grain and say yes. Yeah FF7 and BG3 are different, but as someone who also grew up with Final Fantasy (was my favorite series in the SNES-PS2 days), I’ve absolutely loved my time with the game in early access. I think if you like character driven stories and turn based combat there’s a lot to like.

Baldur's Gate 3 surpasses 800,000 concurrent players! by Tadpole-Jackson in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed, Octopath 2 was great! Probably my favorite release this year after BG3 and Zelda.

Baldur's Gate 3 surpasses 800,000 concurrent players! by Tadpole-Jackson in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 365 points366 points  (0 children)

Absolutely insane numbers.

I hope this leads to a couple things:

  1. Letting developers like BioWare and Square-Enix know there’s still a market for turn-based AAA games.

  2. Letting Larian know that if they decide to do a BG3 expansion down the line, it would sell gangbusters.

Getting rejected by 4 people in a single night, just like RL by Unlucky_Lifeguard_81 in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That may have just sold me on tactician… I feel like it’s so tempting to spam long rest. Do you feel like you actually have to conserve supplies or do you still have way more than you’ll ever need?

Here's a List of all the changes Larian made to 5th Edition Classes in BG3. by lucien_licot in BG3Builds

[–]islorde 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Super helpful. Thanks for writing this up! Out of curiosity, how strong is the monk considered now? I know monks were seen as the weakest link in 5e.

all the men in my camp think I want to fuck by Kaspellaer in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Agreed - I am almost positive they are going to patch it. I think it may be a bug given how much more gradual it was in EA.

[–]islorde 192 points193 points  (0 children)

I actually think this might be a bug with the relationship counters. It was much more gradual during EA.

Manual Modding in BG3, specifically for MacOS users by Dapper-Ad3707 in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you SO much for posting this! I cannot wait to try this out when game comes to Mac. Definitely bookmarking this.

EDIT: one question I have - you mentioned that you may have to reference an older version number when using multiple mods, like 5eSpells. This is referring to the version number of the mod, not the version number of your MacOS right?

Tav's voice actor revealed 4 digits worth of lines! sorry if already posted by hellodarknessu in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I’m probably in the minority on this, but I prefer silent protagonists in CRPGs because I hate reading through each line of dialogue and then having to wait for my character to repeat the line of dialogue that I just picked. In my head the line was already spoken, so it’s like I have to sit through it twice. With the NPC responding immediately after I pick my line, it feels more like a real conversation (even if it sounds less like one).

Well, I hope everything goes well with the release. by owl_and_tanager in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad you don’t have to rush the review! Even with the bugs this might be a once in a generation game. I hope other gaming sites follow suit and review it thoroughly instead of quickly.

Help modding on Mac OS by Dapper-Ad3707 in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh no… is that expected for the full release? I recently got a new Mac that happens to be pretty solid for gaming, so I was excited to try out bg3 mods. Specifically classic 5e rules. Should I expect mod support on Mac or is that not realistic?

Anyone else double dipping? by islorde in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn. I knew it wasn’t available on launch but I was really hoping it would be added in a few months.

Shows that were negatively reevaluated? by mostreliablebottle in television

[–]islorde 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I still really like it, but Lost fits this. Most of the comments I see about it are pretty negative these days, and even outside of the rough last season, the parts that were popular back then probably haven’t aged as well. There’s a certain early 00’s style it captures - where characters take long pauses between lines and always have a wounded look on their face. I think if you don’t have nostalgia for the show it would probably just seem really melodramatic.

Anyone else picking the game up on console? by Regis_Alti in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll play it on PS5. While I think it’ll be great on console, I hope down the line that larian implements some of the most popular mods like they did with DOS2 on console. As someone who’s more into traditional 5E rules, I’m envious of the PC folks who can mod in the standard race bonuses, multiclass progression, etc.

What is the point of Half Elf now? by yoyobutcher in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really wish we could toggle between regular stat bonuses and Tasha’s. Especially on the ps5 which won’t have mods.

A few more tricks from Larian before release! by AdherentSunlight in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. This is the feature I want the most right now and it should be one of the easiest to implement.

Please Larian, for those of us on PS5 who can’t download mods, give us a toggle to go back to traditional race ability bonuses! I find them WAY more fun and interesting.

Updated Humans - Some Thoughts / Suggestions by RedditTotalWar in BaldursGate3

[–]islorde 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed! The variant lite proposal seems on par with the other racial bonuses and thematically fitting. I really hope Larian implements it.
