Comment on in depth dual- and multi-classing?

You already named Baldur’s Gate 3, and I don’t think I’ve found one more interesting or elegant than D&D 5e. Maybe other folks are more well-traveled than I am, but I’ve played most of your examples, and 5e still takes the cake. You can still do better, especially since not every attribute is equally important across classes, but it still makes for fun synergies as is.

Baldur’s Gate 3 hardly even constitutes as dnd 5e. It pains me that someone would say dnd 5e “takes the cake” when it comes to in depth classes and multi classing.
Have you ever played pf2e? Fabula Ultima?

Nope, but like I said, other folks are better traveled than I am. Still, I have sampled lots of RPG systems, and 5e’s is the best I’ve come across. I’ve played the Pathfinder 1 system via Kingmaker, and I’ve played both Pillars of Eternity games, which share a lot of the same DNA, and I’d for sure take 5e’s multiclassing over what those offer. Yes, BG3 is 5e. Yes, it changes some things, but so, so much of it is intact, including multiclassing. It’s one of the things I miss most as I’m playing through the first Solasta.

Respectfully I will disagree about bg3 keeping much intact. It is very different than the tabletop game.

Respectfully disagreeing as well, but I play the tabletop game, too.
