Not sure if this is helpful, but BG3 is on sale until tomorrow morning.
I havent been able to play yet, so I’m incredibly excited.

$48. “On sale”
It will get cheaper, probably around Christmas.
Valencia@sh.itjust.works 5 months ago
Is that not a sale? It’ll be even cheaper next Christmas too.
Dragonstaff@leminal.space 5 months ago
20% is 20%. It won’t be dirt cheap for another year or two. If you’d prefer to wait until Christmas in hopes of saving $3, more power to you.

Death Domain clerics? Fuck yeah! I can make my actual PnP Cleric now.
Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 5 months ago
And all of them are fuckable

Big naturals Withers romance option when?
SecretSauces@lemmy.world 5 months ago
I just hope they add the functionality to enable all relevant mods with the push of a single button. At least on console, we literally have to enable each mod, one by one.
NukedRat@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Oh shit I must have missed there’s mods on console now. Are there any that significantly change the game? I might jump back in if it feels different to play cos I pretty much did everything I could and even beat it on the hardest difficulty, although that took 2 playthroughs since I died on the last boss the first time round.
SecretSauces@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Hop back in then! The mods are great! I started a new DUrge campaign as Dread Overload Warlock, but there’s some more subclasses added, you can give everyone wings, they’re are weapons that improve along with your characters, cheater items if that’s your thing, the mods are a lot of fun

mods on console
WAT?
samus12345@lemmy.world 5 months ago
I had the same reaction, and looked it up to learn that consoles do indeed have curated mods that can be used. The one I wanted to the most, expanding the number of party members that can be controlled in battle, is there, so I might just have to do another playthrough…
Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 months ago
That’s pretty awesome! The best game I’ve ever played just keeps on giving me more stuff even though I’ve already paid them, and idk why! Thanks Larian!
nutsack@lemmy.world 5 months ago
because it means more people will pick up bg3 and probably buy the next thing they make as well
kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Cool. Now add Artificer.
FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Glorious.
Let’s hope Sony doesn’t snatch them up too.
Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Larian seems to have some actual principles, which is quite rare these days.
taiyang@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Man, I still having had time to do my wild mage run. Granted a friend wanted in on that for the shenanigans.
RinseDrizzle@midwest.social 5 months ago
Oooh maybe just inspired my next run.
But lol I should go finish the first… Took too long a break and now I’m all “wtf was I doing” when I load back in.
Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Do you mean sorcerer, or are you multi-classing?
taiyang@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Yeah, the sorcerer subclass. From what I understand it’s not the cow-falling-from-the-sky good times from BG2 though. Might need mods for real craziness.
cowfodder@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Finally, a proper hexblade!

Yet another proof that it’s better to just wait until games are completed before buying
moody@lemmings.world 5 months ago
BG3 was definitely a complete game upon release. This is just icing on the cake.
Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 5 months ago
I don’t consider my cake complete until there’s icing on it 😉
The point still stands, if you’ve already played the game and extra content is added that you might have enjoyed then you might be disappointed that you won’t get to enjoy that content. When you only have a few hours per week to play games you won’t go back if you have other games you want to try, but if you had known more content was coming you would have played something else in the meantime.
sexual_tomato@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 months ago
The game was done at launch. I played through the campaign the first month after it was released. I would have been happy with what was in the game a year ago
People bought the game and that enabled larian to keep working on it. So they got to polish and add in the stuff that had been left on the cutting room floor we’d have never otherwise seen due to that pesky reality of not being able to ship a finished product if the scope kept growing.
So now, a year after release, there’s a whole DLC’s worth of content in the game that we just get for free.
taiyang@lemmy.world 5 months ago
While that take is correct in 98% of circumstances, this isn’t one of them for a couple of reasons. BG3 has enough content at release to play for several years and have different experiences each time. The fact that it’s getting free additional content is more so because of people making the game popular in it’s first year, showing that CRPGs aren’t dead, etc. The game won literally every GotY award, for crying out loud.
There’s not a ton of other games I’d say this is bad take, but you know, it’s like complaining about Terraria or Dead Cells or something. At some point you get the game and you return to it periodically.
The only two reasons to put it off? You’re too poor or you don’t have time for a 300+ hour time investment. It’s not gonna get a steep discount anytime soon, though.

I’m SO EXCITED LETS GOOO
djsoren19@yiffit.net 5 months ago
oh man, I’m really tempted to recreate my Lawful Good Hexblade Warlock. I guess the opportunities to roleplay an insane fallen paladin aren’t as prevalent though.
Siethron@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Any new story line?
Asks the coward who refuses to do an evil durge run.
Funkwonker@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 months ago
It’ll be great to actually play Drunken Master Monk instead of just being an Open Fist Monk who drank all the time.
TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 5 months ago
I feel the same way, but in real life.
