Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Someone please help :( I need confirmation from Dev!

Heya!

I'm in the process of buying BG 3 before the launch so that I can have access to all the Digital Deluxe goodies, but!

My prefered platform is GOG.com.

And I need a confirmation, like 100%, will GOG.com version have Achievements?

Someone please provide me with necessary info q_q

This forum is mainly for gamers to talk to one another, and while the Larian community management team do trawl it for feedback and bug reports, we don't often get direct answers to questions here ... though it's always a possibility.

I'm not aware that there have been any announcements about achievements, but if the info you want isn't made available at this Friday's Panel from Hell you might be better off contacting Larian support (you can find details of how on the Larian website) and seeing if they can tell you.

Serious question:
Why wouldnt it? O_o

As stated above we can't 100% confirm here, but I would imagine it would work fine since it worked in DOS2.

GoG gets the same achievement list as Steam - So, it's really up to GoG to implement the achievements, not Larian.

Proof: If you check games between Steam and GoG you will find the same list of achievements with the same requirements. The way GoG implements them isn't as good as Steam but that's neither here nor there.

Achievements list are often (almost always, in fact) shared among ALL platforms that support achievements, because the list is decided by the developers.

That doesn't mean that it's GoG's job to implement them after they are decided. It's usually still up to the individual developers, but the platform holders usually have to offer the tools (i.e a specific API) and support to make the process as frictionless as possible.
