BG3 is pretty good but best game of all time?
I mean I'd argue it's not even close to the best RPG (which is of course Fallout 2). To me it has too much of the "tumbler fantasy" that killed dnd in the first place and bringing in modern ideals in to an environment  inherently based upon medieval europe. I mean you have transgender people but the concept of government outside of a monarchy is laughable lol. Plus I never liked a voiced protagonist for a RPG, sort of separates your ability to create your character in its entirety imo.

DIdn't say I wanted to kill trans people lol, just meant that a society that has progressed past traditional gender binary it begs to question why governmental structure is static at absolute monarchy. Idk I guess my bar is just high reading stuff like tolkien, but stuff like ethnography don't seem to matter. There seems to be no differences in regional racial demographics and in that case surely their should be a semi-****geneous racial demographic. 

Maybe you've only played modern RPG's with invincible characters but if i was you I'd look at the original fallout duology and if the isometric view is a turn off then thee 3d new vegas. No limits on who you can kill, great world building and subtle social commentary that isn't "orcs are black" like modern dnd is.

I also just think forgotten realms is generally a boring setting, its so cookie cutter fantasy, every species in the handbook exists with no thought about location, its massivley polytheistic but not in a realistic way, more in a way were theres a thousand religions and all are correct lol. 

In regards to the companions they're decent but having every character be bisexual and constantly tryna bang you if your a decent guy is unrealistic imo. Would've preferred more morally questionable companions, only one is astarion and they kinda wimped out on making him a *******/

*SPOILERS STOP READING IF YOUR PLAYING*



my Astarion became a vampire lord after slaughtering 1000s of vampire spawn, he can definitely not be a good guy if you don’t want him to be. I did play new vegas for 50 hours and it was great but buggy as **** tho, to me it just doesent compare to bg3. The story and impact of the boss fights just blow anything fallout or Bethesda has ever done out the water I mean Starfield was TRASH and comparing my time in that to bg3 is incomparable, tbf I haven’t played fallout 1-2 tho. I enjoy hearing your thoughts on the game tho, did you not enjoy it that much then?

I really enjoyed BG3 i just lament how DnD has declined, by becoming more inclusive I'd argue they've diluted what made it good in the first place and sort of betrayed the nerdy fanbase it had prior to wizards of the coast changing it. Not saying something can't be more inclusive but when it breaks established canon and takes you out of the world its a lot more distracting. Still the story is good and I definitely agree with your point about the antagonists, though I do think the morality unforutnatley falls too much in to a binary, are you a **** or a hero or in between. While as the OG fallout has a decision where you can let a crimelord keep control of the city using violence but making it a boom town with more economic growth and standard of living or a sheriff who keeps the status qou and rules over a lawful town that is relatively poor. 

The OG fallouts were created by a defunct company called black isle who also did other great rpgs i haven't played. But fallout 2 is genuinely the greatest stories i've ever played. Gameplay is very marmite though, i enjoy it but most modern gamers would despise it if i hazard a guess. I loved BG3 combat just because of how much choices you had though again I wish you had more pacifist options, to my knowledge you can beat both fallout 1 and 2 without killing a single person, hard as it is.

Also if you really enjoyed the combat try xcom 2. Thats what I believe BG3 gemplay is based on. It's like a sci fi black ops game where you do a multitude of different missions. 

Thats the thing about 5e (the fifth edition of dnd that BG3 is based on), its excellent for new players, i mean it replaced 4 to be more new plaer friendly and inclusive:. However for the losers like me that enjoy the complex ******** of 4 and especially 3.5 e it seems like a downgrade, an attempt to make it more mainstream while leaving the old fanbase behind. When it comes to tabletop your hard pressed to find an experienced player that doesn't use homebrew.

@Baron Von Rattus

Agree about prefering a more complex ruleset than dnd 5e can offer (although I don't think that prevents BG3 from being one of the best RPGs of all time). There are some CRPGS that are a lot more complex in that regard like the Owlcat games and to some extent Pillars of Eternity. I don't like real time with pause though and those games are all built around it even if some of them have an optional turn-based mode.

If they were true turn based it would have been great. But you can spend countless hours just designing a character build in Owlcat's games, not customizing the look but actually mapping out the levelling process.

BG3  isnt my type of game.

I am not a gamer so I have to play more or less easy games.  The 1st game i am going to play when streaming is the walking dead telltale series games.

I'll be playing lots of games from the 90's and early 2000s.  At least that is the plan.

To name a few

The Crow: City of Angels(video game)



STEPHEN KING’S F13: CTRL, ALT, …SHIVER



ALONE IN THE DARK: THE NEW NIGHTMARE



Deep Freeze(1999 video game)



RUGRATS IN PARIS: THE MOVIE(game)



Azrael's Tear



The Magic School Bus Explores the Solar System

Telltale games can barley be called games imo. Plus most are wank, wolf among us, walking dead season 1 and thats it as far as I can remember (in regards to the good ones). The whole concept is such a lie, none of your choices matter in the slightest. 

Also rugrats and the magic school bus lol

Haven't played that one but it has been described as having "universal aclaim" and sold over a million copies so its a good guess its decent. From what I've read its very magic heavy as the pc is automatically a sorcerer so it may not appeal to my monkey brain barbarian tendency, Also it seems to draw heavily from the previous games story so maybe either give that a play or watch some lore. The character customisation looks cool as **** though

Again though I don't know **** lol, only larian game ive played is BG3 so theres definitley better suited people to advise your purchase.
