Given how popular the Baldur's Gate 3, which was released entirely in 2023, I think it's easy to forget that for most of the three years there's a journey there being the first act of the game. Meanwhile, the idea of playing Dungeons & Dragons was sown into me, and I dug its roots into my brain, making it more and more annoying and I grew to ignore each day. By the time I actually finished the full cooperative in October 2023 (I had kids. It took a while, allowed me), I saw dimension 20. I tried to pick up Gate 3 of Baldur again for an evil playthrough, but it wasn't the same. It lacked everything I like about D&D: a very stupid voice and a completely reactive world. The immersive changes from “what to say from the list” to “say what you want whenever you want” are something that video games can't compete with. So at this point I assumed that Gate 3 of Baldur was done for me. News about Patch 8 began to leak, and Gumbo forced me to play with a new subclass (the mods have already been added with non-official capacity, but I played them with mods anyway). I was worried about how much I enjoyed it, but learning D&D means that it's actually practically superior at Gate 3 of Badur. More importantly, you fully understand that you have a complete understanding of the dice rolling in the background. If you add 1D4 to your attacking role and are not used to D&D 5E, it sounds like the most interesting buff in the world. But those who know that Bless is one of the best low-level spells in the game, and that no matter what level you play, it's relevant and that many spells are uncontrollable.

The game only happens when you learn the game and the corresponding save throw, even though you do a good job of communicating the percentage of the attacks that are likely to work. The sacred flame is notorious for being missing at Gate 3 of Baldur, mainly because it is a savings throw of dexterity and almost every monster in D&D 5E has at least a decent dexterity. If you work with some options that target throws instead, you can really increase your chances of dealing damage. It's all from understanding D&D 5E. It's always great to understand the mechanics of the game better, but actively increasing your enjoyment isn't enough. At least not in itself, but Gate 3 of Baldur doesn't have the main thing that I and many others enjoy about dungeons and dragons (roleplay). Most DMS referees as a rule are to create a more enjoyable experience for players with their own variations of existing rules, either unwritten (rai) or homemade, as a home. The atmosphere is sublime in BG3 (and Larian technically gets some rules too, too: drinking potions for bonus actions, instantly reducing short breaks from an hour), but thanks to programming, it is set to stone and cannot be changed or adapted based on the individual situation. Playing BG3 has experience playing the game directly at a table that is much closer to playing D&D 5E RAW. DMS and players usually focused on roleplaying according to the RAI, and not mechanics, but mechanics, the main thing I was thinking about was the mechanics. I'm thinking about building abhorrent characters that don't make sense from a role-play perspective, but when it comes to being a regular success with perceptual checks, it makes perfect sense when it comes to being an absolute beast (like D&D, one of the two most rolled and valuable skills alongside insight). “Why my Paladin Multiclass is a magician, and as a warlock, and a bard, “You can do that, the logic can be damned. Certainly, patch 8 has added 12 new subclasses, which is great, but the mods do more than that. You can also play with a tweaked version of the 2024 rules, add new spells, advance the game to level 20, and play with third-party content like the Illrigger class of MCDM. It's almost impossible. Testing how these builds feel without DM means you can test whether you like playstyle from a mechanical sense. It also means that you can't allow DMs in their game because DMs don't suit the lore and atmosphere of their world. It means that you might be able to scratch the itch. Certainly, me and many other DMs consider the response to be completely problematic, especially if you don't enjoy your current character, but it's great to justify a big transformation in an ongoing adventure with magical items, gifts from God, or other narrative developments. Being able to justify the story and avoid all of that complexity in BG3 is just accepting that you'll become a Gremlin, a bit of a battle, you'll be free in a way, and you don't have to worry about feeling like you're bothering the DM. Plus, Baldur's You'll receive all the great writing and great story variations that Gate 3 offers. All of these are just adapting to class changes. That's not something I've considered for any reason. If you were on the same boat as me, you'll just take this as your sign and go back with your strangest build and enjoy the playground the game has to offer. D&D added to Baldur's Gate 3 in a way I didn't expect. I was overjoyed to enjoy both.
