''First of all sorry for my bad english.''
I'm a long time dnd player. I have both played bg1 and bg2 also all the iwd, toee, nwn1, nwn2, dnd implemented games. All of these titles have good or bad side mechanic decision to a acceptable level. But in these titles baldurs gate has always a different place.
At the moment Larian is saying that they are on the journey to create best rpg game in the name of ''BALDUR'S GATE 3.''
Don't get me wrong but unfortunately so far this game has nothing to do with Baldurs Gate. also it seems a very bad implementation of dnd 5e system.
For me the problem is not about setting or turn based combat. It is about adoptation and immersivness. Unfortunately we did not seen a characther like Gorion, Tetroil an ally like Jaheria, Khalid, Imoen villain like Sarevok, Irenicus. We did not seen spell voice acting. We did not seen a world living without pc. We did not seen of portraits of our characther hand drawn. We did not seen saves, inititatives, characther status like badly wounded. We did not seen a combat with element of suprise.
Instead we have seen an bow that sticked into fire becoming magically fire shooting bow wich is exploding creates as ''dos'' style again. In dnd if you put an bow into fire you get a burned bow..
Sadly all we have seen so far is non immersive robot like companion, artwork taken from dos. hit/miss percentages, Enemies predictible, monsters nothing to do with phb. All we have a classic tired to shaped as another game in term of artwork. A hybrid at best.
Is this game going to be playable? I don't know, frankly i also do not care. But i know one thing is that this is not definetley a bg title. ''THIS IS NOT THE WAY'' Not with this condition.
As a player who played lots of rpg including dos series i know one thing. Like all the other standart rpgs out there. I'm not going to play this game 20 year in this condition like i played Baldur's Gate..
I hope in the end Larian prove me wrong.
