I’m about 1.5 hours off 300 in BG3 - so I’m a fan.
I purchased solasta at 50% off as I’ve really been looking forward to it …
Lasted about 1-2 hours the first sorak encounter - terrible movement issues characters blocked - camera as bad as BG3’s can be - turned it off and haven’t gone back.
To say that solasta is a better game is just silly - it’s implementation of a couple of mechanics which could be implemented in bg3 I agree with but it’s also not a major if they don’t.
BG3 is head and shoulders on another level and if it doesn’t take anything from solasta I wouldn’t personally care. I still believe bg3 is a ways off full release so I am interested to see the next patch in 2022…
Calling someone's opinion silly just because it doesn't agree with yours is silly. See how that works? BG3 is higher budget with better graphics and (IMO) a more engaging story. Beyond that though, Solasta is superior, hands down.
Movement issues? At least you don't get boxed in by your own companions and have to walk your full movement in a circle just to get around them.
Camera issues? Totally agree. Both games blow in the camera control department.
A couple mechanics? Solasta far and above implements 5e mechanics both more faithfully and simply better from a user experience perspective. It isn't just a couple mechanics... its virtually the entire system that Larian claims they're being as faithful as possible to.
Don't even get me started on the vastly different loot systems. Solasta doesn't bog down gameplay with the majority of the time being looting tiny items and empty containers.
