Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback After 7 hours here are my thoughts

So far I am enjoying it! My first role was a natural 1 and soon led to my demise. Love it, except that I was supposed to have +3 to the roll so I could never actually roll a 1. It seems that the "+" to rolls is not working as intended. Instead you just get what you roll. At first I thought maybe the target number was lower but that is not the case. Multiple times I have rolled a 1 when I should have a "+" to my roll. So I am confused at this mechanic and how it is supposed to work in the game. Anyone else having this problem?

Some work needs to be done for the controller, I am on Stadia and I know that it is being worked on but I don't always have my computer handy to play.

Conversations are great but I wish I could find a way to see where my standing/reputation level is with my campmates.

Sneak attacks don't always work.

A nice old lady at the druid/tiefling place told me she would mark my map, never happened. I found it eventually but never marked.

Overall I can't wait for more to be added and worked out, but I am loving it so far.

I haven't read a D&D book recently but as far as i know if you roll 1 you automatically fail anyways regardless of what your + modifiers are. So yes you can roll a 1 and your + modifiers don't matter because you just failed the roll with your natural 1.

It's not a problem, it's working as intended. The target number is not the base DC, it's the base DC minus your modifiers. It's the exact number you need to roll on the d20. If you don't roll that number or higher, you fail.

Guess I'll need to brush up, been awhile since I read 5E stuff. Maybe I would just like to see what the natural roll was and then have the modifers added, perhaps that is just a me thing though, more like how it would work on tabletop.

No, it's not just you, I would like to see it used as well. Keep the DC the same, and instead show me what I rolled and then add my modifiers/proficiencies as an animation. As it currently is, where you have to mouse over the Target DC to see why it was set to that, it's just not satisfying and for me, seems unnecessary and confusing.
