Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback SURVEY - Baldur's Gate 3 - Satisfaction Level V1.0

Sludge, even though its a more volatile environment and you're going to be a whipping boy...https://www.reddit.com/r/BaldursGate3/ might pump those response numbers up now that youve dialed in the survey a bit more. If youre worried about integrity it might be interesting to duplicate the survey and have a different host address and have a Larian, Reddit, Steam version to compare to by source and do a cross-sectional comparison.

Thanks for changing to Gdrive I forgot to respond lol, the hentai ads must have mind-wiped me, that was gonna be my suggestion. With Google Docs you can link a variety of things together in that space.

Also like to shout out to everyone who played Planescape: Torment. I ran my best D&D one-shot to date by lifting from it and introducing a new group of players to Sigil. If you haven't played it, yes its ungodly old, but the writing is great and you will learn a lot of cool lore. and if you just be patient, take the time, and zen clear your mind and accept the game as current, youll start to get a kick out of it. The new planescape is cool and has a great hook, but I think the first ones was better - you wake up, undead/was dead/still dead?, in a morgue, no memory, covered in tattoos you don't understand, in one of the craziest places youll ever see - Sigil.

Ive thought several times in launching that survey in Reddit. I can definitely make a copy of it and post it there and probably I’ll receive so much downvotes for it that I’ll never make it to the top but I’ll give it a try.
I’m afraid the questions will be too technical to the average Reddit user? Maybe I should try to restructure the questions to be more detailed without losing the essence.
I’ve used to post it there my rational thinking, but instead of counter argumentation I’ve received many strikes. Do you realize that you are throwing me in a cage full of lions? :p

Hell yeah! Let’s go!!

Argonaut, true but wow also killed the mmo genre. Before wow, we had ultima online and dark sun online crimson sands, games which are true RPG's. Now, mmos are all about farming gear and managing cooldowns. Extremely boring.

One of the interesting things in the results is that despite what you might read on the forums, most people are happy with the rules implementation and would recommend the game. There are things that people take issue with, but it doesn't affect their overall enjoyment of the game.

Dulany, we share the same conclusions about the results in our forum.

At the same time there are many complaints about the game, it doesn't make it bad.
All the criticism that I found in this very forum are coming from people that simply want to make it a better game and to thrive.

Given the overall scenario, I’d say that currently we’re at a 6/10. It could be way better, still it is above the average.

I really liked DOS1. Simply hated DOS2. Wish to BG3 to be the best game of the decade.

What is funny for being extremely boring a lot more people have decided that is what they want to play. So it's all opinions and some are popular and some are not.

True RPG imo that is hyperbole. They are just different from one another.

I'm really surprised by the percent of people who doens't watn RTwP.
Not because I'm stubborn.
But I just can't understand what is fun in a long fight consisting of "wait-hit-waiiiiiit-hit-waiiit-hit".
The fight against all the goblins made up my mind.
I mean, it's just the beginning, we're going to encounter ennemies, and sometimes lot of them, and sometimes lot of weaklings.
So please, someone have to tell me WHEN I will enjoy a loooooong and uninteresting turn-based fight againts tons of weaklings.

The point is RTwP is not antagonist with turn-based, it's, from my point of view, more like a complement, at least.

I enjoyed playing turn-base hard and intense fights. But really, this pointless fights during 10, 15, 20 minutes ? I can't get it and this is why I can't get how people can prefer turn-based over RTwP knowing RTwP is IN FACT turn-based !

In fact, in RTwP it's still about round and so you can have auto-pause each round, so RTwP is not being against turn-based fight, it's about being for more fluid battle and more freedom in the management of them.
I mean seriously, explain me where is the "strategy" and the "need" of turn-base fight when all you did during the fight is... hit and/or casting basic spells...

But I guess people like to suffer some boring fights or just waste time over it.

Not me and not what I like in videogames, especially this one.

You say its not because you are stubborn, but is it really?

The rules are written with a turn based game in mind. A round is 6 seconds so what would it add vs what it would take away? For fighters for example they would have a 6 second cooldown between attacks before they get multi attack. Wizards and other casters wouldnt be able to cast spells and move away to keep enemies out of melee range. Pretty much everything that was a.reaction would be tossed out of the window.

I could go on but I think my point is clear. Making it rtwp would introduce problems that turn based simply doesent have.

The problem with this survey is that the majority who participated in it knows D&D 5e, which is the opposite of the actual player base. Therefore, I suggest to separate statistics for: newbies to D&D 5e, D&D 5e adepts, and D&D 5e zealots (people who answered that they want D&D 5e without any or with minimal home rules (scores 8 or higher) in BG3).

Here's the average comparing the results of people who are familiar with DnD5e (YES) vs (NO)

Orbax,
10 million for DOS2 ? Are you sure ?
that said, itcan be interesting to compare but it's perillous at the same time. Indeed it's complicated to compare the sales of games edited in many different years. I mean the market wasn't the same 20 years ago obviously.
