    Let’s be honest, they could have put out a large stinking turd with a “BG3” sticker on top and I would have bought it.

    I’m so happy it turned out to be really good!

    I think the point out that Larian knew this too, and used the guaranteed market to invest in content, not profit.

        I appreciate what they’ve done in terms of making the older games more accessible, but I wish they’d kept their fanfiction out of the Enhanced Editions. Especially with no access to the voice actors for the original characters the integration becomes really clunky.

      Maybe a year ago I would have, but Wizards have been kinda asshats with their licensing and MTG shenanigans this year so I’d have avoided it.

      My friends raving about the EA sold me on it.

      I don’t think my opinion counts for much though.
