So, no fights against Liches, Dragons, Illithids etc right? B/c lvl 10 seems like David vs Goliath

Not while BG3 is still at a mid-point of its development.

Hi, I disagree.

Larian made the right choice with lvl 10 cap.

Gives room for future expansions.

Go Larian!

Agreed it is kind of pointless to talk about BG4 when BG3 has not even come out yet

oh no not the high level spells!
That means my wizard might not overshadow the entire rest of the campaign! ITs not fair casterbros NOOOOOO!

Im all seriousness we already know that Wish is in the game, stop beeing hyperbolic about this.
probably means high level spells are somethign story related. Which is good, nothing derails a Campaign faster than a Wizard casting Wish EVERY DAY.

>No fighting draogns, liches, illithids
t.no idea about dnd.
Mindflayers are CR.. 7? i think?
So youll fight one at level 10.
Maybe just not hundreds of em, Dragons come in variations of age last time i checked.
Liches are probably out unless they get nerfed, but thats alright, they arent the most fun antagonist to fight anyway

You do realize that you need to be at level 17 for a wizard to even cast the wish spell you should really check your facts first before trying to be clever all you have done is make yourself like stupid

Will level cap means that reaching level 10 will be very quick? I am hoping the game will last 200hours or more double the length of DOS2!

I did but that does not mean you will be able to cast the wish spell there are other ways to get a wish have you ever hard of the deck of many things but even with the deck of many things you have to go thought the other cards to get to the wish card

The level cap is insignificant. As long as the game is balanced right it doesn't matter what the level cap is.

However I do find it a bit amusing that a supposedly centuries old vampire would be a level 1 rogue, hah.

I mean if he does not have most of the characteristic traits of a vampire spawn is he really a vampire spawn?
No resistance to nonmagical weapons, no regeneration, no spiderclimb on walls, no weaknesses (sunlight, water, ,,,). OK in Larians defense you can't really do it otherwise in a still balanced way.

Only occasionally drinks blood (no strong animalistic urge can easily decide against) and occasionally has sharp teeth.
If you take all characteristic things away then vampire is just a word.


I guess he is a Twilight Robert Pattinson vampire smile

Level cap of 10 is In line with most D&D adventure modules, Decent into Avernus is 1-13
The only published adventure I’ve ever done that’s spanned 1 -20 was the temple of elemental evil
I have 800+ hours into BG1 on steam and only half the achievements no idea how many hours I would have put into it when I was swapping discs
BG2 is much the same 950+ closer to 75% on achievements

As long as the story is well-written, and the gameplay is rewarding, I'm not sure the level cap matters much to me. Many D&D video games in the past have had either sequels or expansions soon after, so it woulld be a surprise if there no further plans at all.

But first, BG3 has to be well received and make money, otherwise there is little prospect of higher levels, toolset or DM mode. At this point, most of their decisions look like they are aiming towards their core audience rather than any massive expansion of appeal, and I would expect them to sell well to those that already like them.

In the monster manual, There is an option for Vampire Players. Larian probably just use that option for a Vampire Spawn at 1st level.

And a pretty weak one at that. Only 15 Dex?
Seems like he hasn't trained in 500 years.
