  1. BG3 Modding

    That sounds really good. Many dyes look far too flashy if you want to play "real" adventurers on the road and not a traveling circus troupe.
  2. Multiclassing in BG3

    Yeah the only problem I have with that is that I keep running into situations where it suddenly becomes evident that it would have been relevant to have this or that character in the party, and I don't feel like going back and bringing them if it means running through a lot of terrain or content...
  3. Baldur's Gate III News

    Only a few hours left! The last community update here strongly recommends the following steps to ensure a smooth launch: 1. Delete your in-game Early Access saves 2. Uninstall the Early Access version 3. Delete your mods Steps in detail how to proceed to make sure everything's clean can be...

    And here's the extract from the Larian Gazette about the tadpole use. It still doesn't tell us too much about negative consequences of its use except for some companions' disapproval or others of them upgrading their own tadpole powers though... Wield the Power of A Mind Flayer When...

    According to PCGamer and other sources, it seems that preload in general isn't possible with/allowed by Steam if a title has been in Early Access. Preload will only be available for PS5 release. That means for my timezone Aug 3 at 5 PM is when I can start downloading and installing... So it...

    A little more than 2 days! I think it's time to discuss how many new threads we need for BG3? Like, one for showing off our characters and spoiler free stuff, and one spoilery to discuss story, with careful and clear warnings at which point of the game someone is? Or how are we going to handle...

    That's interesting because I personally think differences between grammar (sometimes even of moderately related languages) can be quite surprising, sometimes it makes me wonder how the heck people came up with such ideas.
  8. Free games (a thread to monitor & get currently free games)

    I saw yesterday that ESO Plus membership is on free trial until Aug 3. So if anyone got the free base game or even the full non-subscription access, if you go into the Crown Store in the UI, you can pick up ESO Plus as free trial and benefit from all DLC content like otherwise restricted...

    Btw I didn't mean character optimization and playing around with builds, a grain of multiclass here, a redistribution of stats there, a back-and-forth choice between skills to pick at level up shouldn't happen or isn't going to happen. I plan to start on Tactician difficulty, so I expect I need...
  10. Advice for using Bandicam to Record Baldur's Gate

    That depends where you live and what you consider a reasonable budget. I have a HyperX Cloud Flight, bought it online in 2021 IIRC, and I'm quite happy with the sound quality and nobody has complained about the mic yet. Look for small dongles that don't bend or break easily, pay attention to...

    For everyone who hasn't subscribed to it, here's the most recent newsletter: Wed, July 26 Discussing New Tarot Card and Traits Systems Game System Design Changes "Hi Everyone, as promised, I’m checking in with another update on the state of the game and some recent changes we’ve made. As I...
  12. Ola! Big RPG fan, stoked for Baldur's Gate 3!

    Ah, if you like pirates, you'll find good company in this tavern. If you're talking about the other kind of piracy, you'll find trouble ;). We'd also ask you to please restrict your potential plundering of this place to that one cross-dimensional storage room in the basement that we never...

    I don't think it's possible to give recommendations because we don't know yet how exactly the release version of the game will be. Even those of us who have played that kind of games for a while, have followed BG3 and watched videos or played the Early Access will most likely spend days on...
  14. How do you feel about tabletop?

    It's a German game but I just checked, it seems to have been published in other languages as well, in English it is called "Legends of Andor". It was first published in 2012 but has received a few expansions over time. I only have the base game but even that allows for several campaigns, and the...
  15. Hello there! I'm looking for games to try to help me ease into a turn-based system for the release of BG3. Got any suggestion for me?

    I haven't played the Early Access version of BG3, but while the combat rules are D&D based, I don't think you need to play something to "ease into turn-based combat" first if you have played DOS2. D:OS EE and D:OS2 were the only turn-based RPGs I have played before, and from what I've seen in...
  16. How do you feel about tabletop?

    Really late to the party, I know. I grew up in a relatively tech-distant rural environment, and I don't even know if D&D was popular in the 80s and 90s in Germany. I was one of those who learned of its existence through Baldur's Gate 2 first. There was a different P&P system called DSA ("Das...

    I'm a bit surprised about their claim that a few presets to select from and combine make for more unique and distinct characters than sliders. I thought we'd have more individuality with sliders for facial features and especially body types. I wonder if that's just a theory, or if it was...

    I'm going to say octopodes from now on! Not that surprised that they need extra brains for each limb, was wondering anyway how they coordinate them. When I was 16 or 17 I was lucky enough to have a biology teacher who was also a diving instructor, so I got to enjoy a week of scuba diving and...

    Wait, are you saying that if I call a Turian "bird" I'm not insulting them but actually calling them family because I'm a reptiloid?
