I spent two full hours building my character (Bard gang rise up!) and my girlfriend was picking on me for it. When you hit finish and it brings up a second character to build we both bust out laughing. It was unintentionally the funniest gaming moment we've had in a very long time. Honestly, this game has given us a lot of best moments so far. Love it.

As a musician, of course I went Bard. Turns out that bards are f'ing amazing in this game. I actually played it as a joke, because I wanted my friend to have to carry the weight. I kept joking around about how he should head off into the heat of the battle, and I'd compose a song about how he's protecting me while I compose my song. But then I started getting all these crazy spells, and started spitting curses at our enemies, making them miss in battle, and bards are NOT like I remember them.

Too many GMs completely forget that, which removes the biggest reason to use them over a different class.

The only IPs that would increase their audience size at this point would be Disney level IP. If it's a smaller IP they'd either want full creative control or be given funding to make it with an offer of a percentage of sales back. Now that is something I could see though. A crowd funding and early access with CRs backing might actually be big enough to increase the scope of the game which could help offset a long dev cycle their costs now are probably 5-10x a year higher than when they 1st started developing BG3 due to the increase in team size.

They are really great broken people and I can't think of them as friends of sorts, like after reading really good book. Coop, on first playtrough at least, with all of its goofiness, seems like inviting Ronald McDonald to one of the most beautiful stories you'll ever play.

Generally, you roll d20 everytime when you want to check if you can do something. Rolled number + modifiers must be at least equal to DC of the roll - in dialogues you see it as a number over the dice, in a battle as a percentage showing up. When you deal damage you roll types and number of dices defined in weapon or spell description (1d12+1). The brackets (in this example 2-13) shows you exactly the same info, so you don't need to know every single dice type. Learning about possibilities is also big part of the game, so here I'm going to stop, but, as I said, if you prefer to know, you will find those who teach :3 I hope you will have fun and love this game as much as I do.

You can always lower the difficulty. No shame. It's a single player game and about what you want to experience. You can adjust the difficulty anytime as well. I recommend you watch some BG3 tips and tricks tutorials or the "things I wish I knew" etc etc.

So glad to know that you're having fun with BG 3! It has even more opportunities than Divinity 2 - for those who love story, who love challenge and combat, those who love optimizing build or collecting items, those who love weird humour and some NSFW content. The game exceeded my expectations! I played Divinity 2 with a friend and it was so much fun. However, it didn't work for me with BG 3 - he couldn't adjust to my playstyle, and I wanted to read/listen to all the stuff available... spent like 100 hours in Act 1 alone) Because the game has so much to offer!

2:18 "the first 5-90 minutes; in my case it took all day" Don't feel bad. I know 5e like the back of my hand, I made my boyfriend play both the original Baldur's Gate games before the third one released (which I played like a billion times myself already) and I still took at LEAST an hour in the character creator, probably longer, because *every detail must be perfect...* and that's WITH the advantage of having played Early Access, and already knowing pretty well that I wanted to be a lyre-playing duergar bard/Archfey warlock with free invisibility for a long time. But hey, if you're gonna spend hundreds of hours with a character, you want to love it! No shame in that. :)

Love your content! I see so much of your boyfriend in my own experience. My girlfriend used to shy away from challenging games, always reinforcing the self-imposed belief that "she can't handle it." That all changed with Hogwarts Legacy where she unleashed her inner "Dark Souls spirit" 😂. We even bumped the difficulty up to hard (considering we played Kena on Story mode). I started hearing things from her like, "Lockpicking could be more challenging," or "Why are these enemies so easy?" and even "It'd be cool if you had limited tries to unlock a chest, and then it's locked forever." I have a feeling Baldur's Gate 3 will be a similar experience. Looking forward to it.

0:47 to be fair Honour mode is probably the only way to truly experience the game with some risk, which makes the morally questionable, but easier choices make sense, having no chance to reload to correct a roll and knowing the risks makes you really play it more safe, even for someone who tries to stick to RP and not save scum, you always have that "safety" feeling, with honour though, totally different beast, it's easy to get into dumb fights when you know you can always try again Ofc not for first run (unless you totally lost it) but it's something I'd recommend everyone should do on a later run
