Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback More news for us

Yes, why can smaller companies then Larian communicate better?

Where to start?


So what? Why are you paying money for a game, that does not have the mode you want? You are buying a product, and you can deliver feedback, but you are not entitled to anything.



Yeah, you don't. And you can't. These kind of claims are so utterly baseless for anyone who really knows what they talk about that you disqualify yourself.



Thank you, no need for me to buy salt at the supermarket, comes free over the internet

Small edit:

Yes I'd love to see new data, but I guess they are drowning in it atm and need to do a LOT of sorting - feedback included.

It's an age old question, but what I feel is the larger you get the less you give out and there are even reasons why they do that. For example if this were AAA from a Wall Street based company, there would be no EA, there would be no asking questions you get what they put out. Like the next DA or Valhalla, even Cyberpunk, Elder Scrolls.

It is a different genre from BG3 with the examples given, I'm not saying it is impossible, but games in the same genre nearly none (possibly none) are open to daily discussions with their base. I guess the electronic tabletop market they feel they need and want to be in constant discussions, good for them.

I think they certainly should toss us a bone this week.

Agreed. Feedback on the forums are circling the same topics a lot. The current patch has been tested quite thoroughly. Hopefully their patch is ready to go this week.

Large percentage of what percent of players? Those on this forum? That I am pretty sure are not near enough to be a coherent and ammissible representation of the real amount of players in early acces and for sure are not a model of the hypotethical buyers of the official release?

Come on mate(s), the fact that we are almost hardcore players (even when lazy like the writer himself :P ), and that we loooove to spend time sharing our opinions doesn't mean we reppresent anything, what Larian gains from Early Acces is more feedback on actual bugs and issues, pretty sure they consider all the other suggestions and so on with just a little small tiny regard.

I do love how people got so easily self convinced that posting in forums, blogs, wahtever paltform make them count for something.

A fraction of a fraction of a fraction.

I just hope Larian does a professional (intellectual honesty? seriously? what about taking ourselves less seriously? and, please, note that I'm mixing myself in the ensemble) work and fixes the bugs and issues that have been highlighted (but I think they use other sets of data than the feedbacks we post here. What can i say I'm a bit of a cinic).

Yes I agree. We need more news about Us. Did he die when he fell from the nautiloid, or will we meet him?

"The gang rides a nautiloid" - cue intro

So anyway I started Eldritch Blasting.

I dunno about anyone else, but I'd rather wait for big updates than get these forced frequent updates where basically nothing is said.

I don't know about the rest of you all who purchased this developing game in EA, but I watched the dev gameplay videos before buying. Days before it was released. Turn based combat was a big part of what was shown. I dont get how you can blame Larian for being "underhanded" when everything was spelled out in front of you before you purchased. Buying something without taking a few minutes to research it first is the risk you took.

Use that IT expertise you have to develop an RTwP mod if it doesnt end up in the full release. It will certainly benefit the community more than putting out claims that Larian ripped you off.

People always say that they want RTWP, but man...
I really think that in practice these games play way better as turn based.

As much as I love Pathfinder Kingmaker the combat in that game is quite weak and not very fun, and they also have to fill out with so many more enemies because combat ends so fast.
Things become a bit of a clusterfuck when everyone can move at the same time and things lose its impact.
It just becomes more about spreadsheets and watching auto attacks play out and if you look away for 1 sec someone dies.
That danger of sudden death might sound exciting, but it's another thing in practice altogether.

There's a reason why turn based was so heavily requested in Pathfinder Kingmaker and why the devs implemented it, but the game isn't as good in it as it could've been because it wasn't built for it.

Sigh, where to start?

Yes, this is what is known as a company throwing a part of it's player base / fanbase under the bus on account of being lazy and is considered extremely poor form. It's why people have been lynching EA and Activision since the dawn of time. Tack on that this is a BG game that is traditionally RTwP and we breach into intellectual dishonesty. area. I understand people now days have little to no standards so these sentiments might be difficult for you but have some tact and dignity please. Games are not a service, they are a product.



I am sorry you are incompetent at your job.



You've got me stocked for years, but your salt has something bitter to it.


You can find plenty of pushback on this forum and others and not just about this feature but many others that deviate from expectations. If Larian cared they could make a survey but this is par for the course since DivOS1.


We quite literally represent something. I don't mean to offend you but is English not your first language?
Also please don't put Larian on a pedestal mate. They are a developer making a product, not delivering a service or doing us a favor. Unlike with physical products they don't have to consider things like recall costs and now is the perfect time to take it into consideration.


No one believes it will change anything. It didn't in DivOS. I don't care about bugfixes because that is bare bone basics and Larian has a history of releasing buggy and unbalanced messes despite this feedback. You can take yourself however you want.

Don't insult other forum members.

Also the RT/TB discussion is here: please take any further discussion on the matter to the appropriate place.
