Imagine giving your opinion that level of importance. Pehle fundamentals to samajh lo, that you still haven't corrected in the earlier post. Baaki Metacritic has you covered with links to all reviews. Don't be afraid to use it in BG3's case 🤜😂
Hahahaha just as I thought. That stacking of crates was just a one off thing :ROFLMAO:

Depends on the types of pre defined legos. Can you make a basic, perfect circle without curved Legos? Only if the developer put it there 🤷‍♂️😂
Not only did the developers put it there, they made its existence feel natural. For example, you need to cut down trees and chop wood to get circular or cylindrical pieces. Need a triangular piece, no problem? There are objects available that can be used for said purpose. The end result? Your imagination is the limit.

LMAOOOO @ one off.

Before watching that CerebralTiger had called th game giving "zero freedom"

Stay in denial Tiger. Meanwhile, the metascore is still something you aren't posting for some odd reason. Says it all really 🤷‍♂️😂

CerebralTiger failing at turn based wars, no wonder he dislikes the genre 😂

If the elements are there then obviously the developer intended them to be used. Get your understanding right 🤣🤜
HAHAHAHAHA RIP freedom (minus them crates) :ROFLMAO:

Even during combat 🤷‍♂️🤣
That's the gear switching menu, which is used in combat. Abhi previously building waalay radial menu ki baat ho rahi thi 🤦‍♂️:LOL:

And, as I've said before, Nintendo opted to pause time when it is brought up in order to make the game accessible to a wider audience. It's totally possible to have menus without the need for it, for example Fortnite. So the idea that it's necessary to pause the game in order for the player to handle menus in real-time combat is just plain false :LOL:🤜

P.S. Here's more TOTK freedom :LOL:🤜

Who bhi use ho raha hai which CerebralTiger tried to qualify under "mainly used for puzzles".

Recall: mainly used during traversal and puzzle solving to rewind platforms etc.
LMFAOOOO RIP real time combat 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

How's that freedom when everything is restricted to the items predefined by the developers? 🤷‍♂️🤣

It's called modularity. All the basic shapes needed to build any complex construction are there in the game, with the only limitation being one's imagination (and the frame rate lol).

Anyway, I think this discussion has gone far too off-topic and has, therefore, run its course. As such, I'll leave the thread so that good guy Venom and "old-school" guy Necrokiller may continue to share their thoughts on BG3 🤜

And DONE !!!!

Took me a good 114 hours to finally finish this game. If I had to guess, I am pretty sure there's another at least 50 more hours of contents that i have missed because of certain decisions.

The map, characters, side missions - all of it was absolute god-tier stuff by Larian. Tremendous depth in characters and freedom of choices this game grants you is something I have rarely seen before.

Absolute masterpiece this game is. 10/10.

At this point, it's obvious that the GOTY contest would be in between TOTK and BG3. Having played both quite extensively, i would be happy if either one would win because they are both great games.

100% agreed.

But damn either you were quick or I'm taking it very slow. I just reached Act III with roughly 100 hrs in. Mind boggling the amount of high quality in here. Haven't felt this way since Witcher 3, though Original Sin 2 comes close.

Yar right towards the end of Act 3, I sort of rushed through just to finish it up. I mean i didnt explore Shadow hearts quest line and didnt even start Karlach's quest line so may be that would be the reason. Like I said, I'm pretty sure there is a good 50 hours content that i have missed in this game.

Also, while BG3 is obviously a better game overall, i liked the combat of DOS 2 much more than BG3. Maybe because BG3's combat was a a lot confusing, especially in the beginning for me.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
