Amazing video thanks for sharing more people need to see this

Amazing. There are so many choices in this game after 2000 hours there is still content i’ve never seen .. because i havent made as many apparently stupid, crazy or impossible choices as I should. Time to let loose and let Larian sort out the consequences.

I'm really surprised that this video is so unpopular, it's so much Insight into how baldur's gate 3 works. Any fun of that game should watch

I guess not many players of BG3 are really that interested in things like game design - I'm here specifically because I don't enjoy the game, but *have* found it interesting to pick through how the game was put together and how things ended up feeling (for me) so disjointed.

Such a cool panel! I'm an Emperor fan and I never seen the dialogue about the kobolds mentioned anywhere lmaooo

Great talk. But I didn’t understand his comment about the three skill checks in the Zaithisk machine in the creche. the machine cannot remove the tadpole - or can it? i thought the checks only affect whether you get a buff or a temporary debuff. So why the three checks?
