Maybe they will make a RWtP mode later or a fan will do it.

Still turn based options for three cool games, Solasta and BG3 are turn based 5e D&D games and Wrath of the Righteous has a TB mode and uses Pathfinder 1e with Owlcats own Mythic Path recipe! And Wasteland 3 is coming out this year!

Its truely a new Golden Age of CRPGs!

Yep. Such a disappointment.

Also, those D:OS 2 style dialogue options still give me severe eye cancer.

Very disappointing. As predicted a totally DOS2 clone with BG3 skin. Not only that. I don't get any baldurs gatey feel on it. Let's see how the gameplay fares and how Sven deny it not being a DOS clone

They look beautiful!

Hahahaha man you fools! Look at the screen shots.

Your bitterness has literaly made you overlook the actual details.
Look how one of the screenshtos has "TURN BASED" on the upper end of the screen.
What do you think this means?

Whats the point of denoting "TUrn based" in a game thats turn based?

Obviously its Turn based and RTWP with a toggle!
Like ive said months ago.

Now stop your whining and embrace the new CRPG trend of pleasing everybody.
I swaer youll find a reason to be upset about anyhting

I think that could be the case, a toggle TB-RTwP. The salomonic solution.

I am pretty sure that we`ll have a lot of whining incoming no matter what, even if the combat mechanic is optional and you could have both. "They are going to divert the effort of the team and we will have half-assed combat" and whatever. Just turn off the combat that you do not like and let the others play as they want...

It was the same in PoE2, PF:K and when they announced that PK: WoTR would have TB and RTwP modes.

Of course, people will be whining about everything. As i said, we will have 2 groups of players - one will love the game, another will hate.

For me, it looks somewhat like D:OS 2 unfortunately. However we still dont know what 'feeling' will the game have. We gotta play it by ourselves to find out.

This article seems to have more screenshots.

yeah well ive got no patience for insufferable people.
Its your own fault if you choose to ruin everything for yourself.

Am happy as long as it has turn based mode.

Thanks. I'm digging the visuals a lot. The characters look fine but as others have pointed out the color palette and level design remind me of D:OS too much but there's no telling if the screenshots are representative of the whole game. Still holding my breath.

Edit: The user interface could use some work. The bottom bar takes up too much of the screen. I suppose it can be hidden?

Sven is a natural born joker BTW

Cool, more screenshots. Thanks a lot!




I´m kinda curious about this approach to the dialogue.


I´m used to it due to the previous DoS2 game, but I wonder if this means that the MC is not dubbed. Sometimes when you use that kind of presentation it does not match at all the wording with the actual words the character say, like in Fo4 or DA:I inquisition games

I'd support both modes, I've never bought into the idea if its not one or the other it will suck, with good planning from the beginning you can pull both off very successfully.

Well, my bubble has been burst. I respectfully accept this as Lariens game and their right to make it as they feel. I for one will not be playing it, I tried Divinity Original Sin and made it about 5 minutes and uninstalled it. If I wanted to play PnP thats what I would do. I like video games for the free flowing feel. But as I said earlier, its their game.

My only hope is there is a way to switch between the two modes of play

So, will there be a RTwP mode, or have Larian simply sold-out and made a reskin of D:OS while abusing the Baldur's Gate name to exploit its fanbase?

No RtwP.

Then it's a betrayal of the Baldur's Gate series and its fans, and Larian have sold-out.

I like RtwP but Larian brought turn based back in fashion. I was certain it would be TB.

What? I've been a Baldur's Gate fan since the first one was released. Me and my friends played them so much back then, and I still give them a go with a few years apart.
I don't feel betrayed at all, this looks like an improvement.

An improvement why?
