    D&D General BG3 Massive Spoiler Thread

    I respec Minsc's stats into, well, Minsc, but I keep him a Ranger. A Hunter Ranger, to be exact, and here's why if you don't know already: The BG3 version of the Hunter Ranger's level 11 Multiattacks (Volley and Whirlwind) count as individual attacks, rather than as whole actions. Which means...

    D&D 5E (2014) Will Baldur's Gate 3 Change D&D?

    I recall Swen Vincke mentioning that Larian's next project will be smaller scale than BG3 was. Honestly, a more story-light, combat-heavy game like an Icewind Dale 3, using the same engine as BG3, could fit the bill for the type of game they might want to do next.

    D&D 5E (2014) Will Baldur's Gate 3 Change D&D?

    Finding someone to replace David Warner (RIP) as Irenicus would be a damn near impossible task.

    D&D 5E (2014) Will Baldur's Gate 3 Change D&D?

    BG3 is the first one of those that has really emerged into zeitgeist territory, though. Sure, there were great and fairly popular D&D video games before then, but those and the CRPG genre as a whole has still been largely regarded as niche. It's like with Final Fantasy and how VII did the same...

    D&D General BG3 Massive Spoiler Thread

    Yeah. And even if they were, so what? After a 100-hour or more game? I sat through hour-long cinematics that happened in the middle of Final Fantasy XVI, a game that was never even half as good as this one. I'll certainly live if BG3 has cinematics that long at the end of it, and I wager most...

    D&D General BG3 Massive Spoiler Thread

    Lots of changes/fixes coming in Patch 2, including epilogues, which there have been some controversy about. I'm gonna guess that "begins our journey" part will have to do with activating the epilogue content that is already in the game files, which we know of thanks to datamining. The content...

    Changing Feather Fall into a full party-affecting ritual was the right move, for sure.

    D&D 5E (2014) Larian confirms they want to work on BG3 DLCs!!!

    It'll probably be the Definitive Edition that comes out in roughly a year (same pattern that DOS2 followed).

    Eurogamer also gave only 4 stars to Tears of the Kingdom, so that checks out.

    D&D General Baldur's Gate 3 will now be releasing August 3rd on PC and September 6th on PS5, increased level cap, race & class details and more

    I imagine the Big Patch #1 is going to be aimed mostly at Act 3 because that is where by far most of the issues are at.

    What level are you? You really should be level 4 before doing the goblin camp. And while the hag is doable at level 4, I would honestly wait until level 5.

    Either Lore Bard or Devotion Paladin. I've had it narrowed to those two for the longest time, yet still struggling to decide between them.

    Kill the Final Fantasy series in general? No. Kill Final Fantasy XVI specifically? Actually quite possible, considering the mixed reception that game has had. (Personally I enjoyed it well enough, certainly far more than I did XIII and XV, but it is held back by some significant flaws.) Also if...

    D&D 5E (2024) Playtest 6 Survey is Open

    So apparently WOTC is intentionally limiting feedback on the Ranger compared to all other classes. They don't even let you rate and comment on the Ranger subclasses, and you only get 200 words on the Ranger compared to 500 for everyone else. LOL, WOTC really does hate Rangers.

    D&D 5E (2024) New One D&D Playtest Document: 77 Pages, 7 Classes, & More!

    Oh, I agree. That wasn't a complaint. I just think it's funny that WOTC pretty much admitted Searing Smite is an intentionally inferior spell.

    D&D 5E (2024) New One D&D Playtest Document: 77 Pages, 7 Classes, & More!

    I love how they kept it on the Divine list and didn't bother to make it part of the Paladin's Smite kit. Hey, Cleric, wanna Smite? Cool, you get Searing Smite, which is still light years inferior to even the Paladin's nerfed Divine Smite.

    D&D 5E (2024) UA Ranger (Playtest 6)

    It's overpowered in the early levels but just fine past level 6 or so. They just need to add this feature to the progression: Favored Enemy improvement When you reach 6th level as a ranger, you no longer need to concentrate on hunter's mark.

    D&D 5E (2024) So, Cunning Srike?!

    Yup, I love it. Hopefully this also means the Battle Master is getting a do-over.
