Baldur's Gate 3

Baldur's Gate 3 is absolutely an incredible game and I think almost every gamer should have the experience of playing it. That said, it gets so much praise that people tend to gloss over some of the pain points that are worth being aware of. 1) This game is ROUGH in multiplayer. Throughout Act 1 you may be ok, but as you get further in the game, issues get more and more pronounced. A lot of the problems are the same as ones from Divinity 2, though some are new. - Whoever walks into a conversation first is locked into it, which becomes incredibly frustrating when many rooms and areas trigger a conversation as soon as you walk in. Entire questlines can be cut short because your friend walked in, didn't have the right stat spread to pass the conversation checks, and now you just started a fight that you never wanted. - There doesn't really feel like there's enough good loot to go around for more than maybe 2 players. Part of that is due to the build diversity being so high -- oftentimes you will get some high-rarity drop from a boss that is the right armor class for you but which has abilities which synergize with an entirely different kind of character. I went through almost the entire the game with a green-rarity helmet and cloak because I either never found a good replacement or it just went to a friend who also needed it. - There is no fast-travel-to-friend feature like you acquire in Divinity, so if you decide to split up and each explore different parts of the zone, if you or a friend walks into a fight, the other has to now hoof it all the way over there on foot to join in, and then hoof it ALL the way back to go back to exploring. You can all explore one area... but then it feels like a feeding frenzy trying to find loot first, and then you start triggering conversations on accident, compounding on that issue. 2) If you aren't familiar with DnD you *will* be overwhelmed by the number of spells, abilities, builds, etc unless you pick a class and subclass that intentionally simplify the actions you can take. There is a *lot* to digest and it's oftentimes unclear how things scale, particularly when it comes to spells/abilities that depend strongly on enemy resistances (e.g. something that inflicts Sleep) which can feel very arbitrary to someone not familiar with DnD. In multiplayer this becomes more of a pain point as someone playing a simpler kit is done with a level up almost immediately while a wizard or warlock leveling up may take 5+ minutes just reading what everything does. 3) There is so much content that it starts to become a curse as much as it is a blessing. Quests are frequently split across Acts in the game, which led to a lot of intended-to-be-climactic boss fights in the final act just leaving my friends and I going "so who was that guy anyway?" after finishing them. If you are trying to clear every quest that you have for an area you are likely to burn yourself out. It feels like the intent is to replay the game and try various pathways through the story that naturally lead you to different quests. This is fine, just be aware of it as a player. Not everyone wants to go through 60+ hour games multiple times. 4) Many quests put you in the position of "pass a high stat roll or fight", which can be really frustrating if it's a character / questline you care about, especially if all you did wrong was start the conversation with the wrong character with the wrong statline. It drives you away from picking Feats and Talents that are more beneficial in exploration / town interactions and puts more emphasis on combat since things so often just end in a fight. This isn't offputting at first, but after tens of hours of it, you start to feel like every conversation is less a case of "how do you want to play this?" and most a case of "battlestations, everyone". Baldur's Game 3 is an amazing game with an unbelievable amount of content, but it's worth having an honest understanding of some of the pitfalls so you can have a good time rather than feeling like you got baited-and-switched.

[spoiler] 👍👍👍👍😥😥😊😊😊😁😁😁👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁👍👍👍👍 [/spoiler]

10/10 so much content and replayability.

[h1] Points positifs : [/h1] - Monde de jeu riche et immersif - Une profondeur de gameplay digne d'un jeu de rôle papier - Direction artistique formidable - Un sens de la démesure évident, une aventure impressionnante - Une écriture fine et des personnages cultes - Combats tactiques captivants - Personnages bien développés et choix impactants - L'évolution des différentes relations entre les personnages - Une bande-sonore remarquable - Les actes 1 et 2 réussis - Une durée de vie gigantesque... (environ 300 heures) [h1] Points négatifs : [/h1] - ...Au prix d'une potentielle lassitude - Les trop nombreux embranchements scénaristiques... parfois imbuvable ! - Des soucis inhérents à beaucoup de jeux à embranchements narratifs (choix pas toujours clairs, etc) - Tout fouiller, tout fouiller, raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!! - Un troisième acte en dessous des deux premiers - La carte du monde et ses icônes, une vraie vision de l'enfer - Une ergonomie et une austérité problématiques - Gestion de l'inventaire fouillis - Le joueur est quasiment privé de libre arbitre à cause des dés, paradoxal vu le discours du jeu [h1] En conclusion... [/h1] [i] Ne paniquez pas : la note a (littéralement) été attribuée sur un jet de dés, et Baldur's Gate III ne l'a pas totalement volée. Me faisant passer par toutes les émotions, le jeu est dans un sens fascinant. D'un côté, l'immersion est à son sommet en matière de production, d'écriture et d'interactivité. Néanmoins, le titre oublie parfois les fondamentaux et fait le choix de l'élitisme en se rendant diablement austère. Autant être clair : dans l'industrie du jeu vidéo en 2023, cela ressemble à une régression et à un acte manqué. Parce que même en passant outre des choix de game design parfois discutables, il est difficile de fermer les yeux sur tous les soucis d'interface et d'ergonomie. Les boomers défendant le bastion du PC trouveront probablement en Baldur's Gate III un porte-étendard et un nouveau cheval de bataille mais, ici, j'aime penser que l'on peut faire des expériences profondes, démesurées et accessibles. Baldur's Gate III reste néanmoins un très grand jeu-monstre, difforme, gargantuesque, destiné à une élite, mais livrant un discours malin sur l'identification ainsi que son lot de moments mémorables. Un terrible mélange d'amour et de haine, en somme... Mais avec une autre philosophie et quelques autres choix, il aurait assurément pu prétendre à mon panthéon des jeux favoris [/i] >> 15/20
