@@Chad-Dion People who still get angry at Mass Effect’s (fixed) ending are too soft or too attached to Shepard lol. It’s more heart-wrenching to have Shepard die at the end; it’s war, not everyone will have their happy closure. The entire game literally hinted that they would have to be sacrificed at the end ( the images of family, children, their PTSD.) I understand the choppy cut was weird before they fixed it, but I wish they could have kept them dying instead of succumbing to the complaints.

I truly think one of the keystones of the success of this was the care they took in faces. You spend so much time talking to people in that face to face, and while it is not 1:1, they nailed so many things, in concert with amazing commitment to voice acting. The lips, the eyebrows, the jaw inflections. They did better than any AAA studio at making you feel that you were speaking to a personality, not a dialog wheel. 10/10

[@Sellinglobs]

13:40 I absolutely love this - it isn't just whether they like or dislike your choices and will follow you aimlessly, they react so well to things and sometimes they want something, and you can try to talk them out of it, but they can just say basically F**k you, it's my decision.

[@QGfk1]

I think it is a natural outgrowth of their approach where everyone is not a companion but an 'origin character', who can themselves be the protagonist. but you're right I've never seen party members with so much agency. I think the last few well-written bioware games (DA2 and DA:I) actually did a good job of that. and those had one advantage of characters having real preferences instead of being playersexual/pansexual, which is the only thing that homogenizes everyone in BG3 a bit. I would love to see another RPG like DA2 that isn't a save-the-world-adventure but follows peoples' lives over years, and how it works the party into that is interesting. and it has probably the craziest thing any party member has ever done in a game, which you have no influence over

I dont get why more studios dont do this, like attach a mocap as they record their lines so we get better facial expressions

[@QGfk1]

full performance capture is extremely expensive, basically the same cost as a small-scale film shoot. look into how the Avatar movies are made if you wanna learn more about it, though that's a more extreme version where it literally is a full on normal film shoot with all the actors together. whereas you would be shocked how little voice actors make, and VA sessions can be done very quickly. and to do full performance capture you need somebody who is a normal trained actor and not just a VA. BG3 is by probably an order of magnitude the largest game ever to use it, and it's only used for some stuff (there is 180 hrs of cinematics after all). but the amount of mocap they have is truly insane, there are rpgs 1/5 the size of this that only use algorithmic stuff for conversations (although that can be done well, the witcher 3 for example). going from this to starfield is like going from a real conversation to a wax museum

[@mishsdd]

@@QGfk1 what you say is true, but all these AAA companions can 100% do it with the amount of money they make from mtx.

The writing and characters are superb. But I must admit, the cinematics and all the dialog in the game that was voiced won me over because I do a lot of reading at work so having this being voiced was so good. Less reading in a game lol

I had no idea how many famous actors performed for this game wow.

Such great voice acting

BG3 is an incredible game. The story telling, design, freedom of choices, art, music, and acting felt so real. Everything felt like it was touched by love for the craft.

I've started playing on computers in the 80's with my old Sinclair ZX81, and until now, I've never met such a game like Baldur's gate 3. The Bard's tales, Eyes of the Beholder, BG1 and 2, Skyrim, Fallout(s), Witcher(s), were great games but this one is on another level.

Damn I hope Larian do another D&D game, they went all out with this release.

BG3 taught an entire industry how it’s done!

That knockout legitimately surprised me, great skit.😂 Sucks they never let the actors work ALONGSIDE each other.

A tonne of their performances were filmed during lockdown, hence the distance.
