Baldur's Gate 3

I loooove DOS2, I'm stoked for this game!

looks fun

It's cruel to make an Australian say Larian Studios

For the uninitiated to D&D lore, the humanoid tentacle dudes are called mind flayers, also known as illithids. They procreate through a process called ceremorphosis, which involves what you see in the cinematic: the insertion of a mature illithid tadpole into the brain of another humanoid being, usually humans. They primarily reside in the Underdark, but are feared across the multiverse: they sail the Astral Sea/Astral Plane with their gross ass ships you see in the cinematic, and are often depicted as being at war with the Gith, the yellow skinned people you see in the cinematic as the prisoners of the mind flayer. In short, mind flayers are evil psychic aberrations that exist across the multiverse and want nothing more than to wrap their super gross tentacles around your head and deal 10d10 damage to your face as they attempt to suck your brains out of your head. Approach with caution. Also, this only scratches the surface with mind flayers. There's also elder brains, which are massive brains that sit in gross pools that tadpoles grow in, and alhoons, which are mind flayers outcast from illithid society because they delved into arcane magics to achieve a form of lichdom (undeath)... Mind flayers are great, folks.

The short of it...it's D&D 5e in video game form. I'm super excited for this game. What I hate about BG3...are all the damn fans of the original games that are bitching non stop about the 20+ year old messy system being replaced by Larian's 'which falls more in line with how a D&D 5e encounter happens.

I hope all the d&d stuff is in the game, i want to cast all the spells and multiclass and avoid combat through dialogue. im sure it's gonna be great even if its closer to divinty 2, but there are so many character builds I would like to see in a videogame. like there is the spell disguise self in 5e and warlocks can just cast it, then if feats are in here, grab actor, and I'm able to pretend to be different people all the time. Or all the grappler builds i love. Or a character that uses all the divination abilities
