Baldur's Gate 3 Reviews
I could write a thousand more words about its strengths and its faults, and maybe this time next year, we’ll have a more definitive version of the ultimate Dungeons & Dragons experience that longs to serve us. But for now, Baldur’s Gate 3 is not a critical hit nor is it a critical failure, it’s the kind of roll of the dice you don’t get from D&D: It’s a partial success. Yeah, that one’s for the tabletop nerds.
Overall, the PlayStation 5 version of Baldur’s Gate 3 is well done. Some sacrifices in gameplay, graphics, and combat reduce the gameplay experience, especially for players who have already played the PC version.

Larian Studios' ambitious approach has resulted in a world that is highly responsive to player choices.
Baldur's Gate 3 is an impressive feat, making a DnD game accessible to the masses, while keeping the core, mechanics and variety of the rulebook intact. The freedom of choice is enormous, as are the consequences. The translation to consoles isn't entirely perfect and some minor grievances and bugs have transitioned or are even introduced, but all in all, this is the best Dungeons & Dragons game in existence.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is one of the best games ever made… do I need to say anything else? Its storytelling is amazing, the combat is enthralling, and the world is one I love being a part of. It plays wonderfully on the PlayStation 5, both from a technical perspective and with its controls, whilst the sheer amount of content here will easily keep players hooked in for a long, long time. 2023 has already been a wonderful year for gaming, but Baldur’s Gate 3 really is the crème de la crème. Don’t be surprised to see it rule over the ‘Game of the Year’ lists this year…
Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the most impressive games of the year. Larian Studios have given it their absolute maximum and the result is beyond any expectations you might have.

Some games are very good, while others are bad. Baldur's Gate 3 doesn't fall into either class. It would still not be enough to say that it was perfectly designed for him and that he packed the entire world of D&D into 90 hours of gameplay. Because it has been a groundbreaking production that makes it very difficult for future games -especially RPG- with its detailed and well-thought-out structure that will take its own and other genres forward. An infinite amount of exploration items have a structure that pushes you to want to live in that world.

If you love narrative games, if you know turn-based battles, if you're curious about the depth of them, if you want to lose yourself in the story of beautifully designed characters, you're in the right place. Larian Studios has set a bar that probably won't be surpassed for another 15 years.

Against all odds Baldur’s Gate 3 is everything it’s hyped up to be. An RPG with few if any equals. A project of passion, made by RPG fans for RPG fans. A niche game, developed with AAA quality graphics, sound, and animations. Phenomenal writing, compelling complex characters, and some of the best turn-based combat I’ve ever enjoyed. And best of all, for me personally, is that it does its predecessors proud.
Baldur's Gate 3, the new king of RPGs, demands your attention with its stunning depth and detail. Even though the gameplay may be a little slow for some, it will be hard not to draw you in with the strongest possible pull of the grandeur and beauty of its world. The latest saga created by Larin Studio can keep your life engaged for days, weeks, months and even years. If you approach it as a newcomer or even if you are familiar with the genre, you will enjoy playing Baldur's Gate 3 for a long time.

Larian Studios has shot for the sky in the creation of Baldur’s Gate III, and regardless of anything else must be celebrated for the achievement of rolling such an ambitious title out of the door after keeping the faith to do it properly.
With such high highs and low lows, this game is what you make of it. If you can stomach the glitches and frustrations that come with the local co-op experience, you are in for a fantastic time.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is a game of ups and downs: if the script and cast are fantastic, the performance is shaky. If the visuals and soundtrack are jaw-dropping, the experience is not the most intuitive and fluid on console.

Baldur's Gate 3 is an outstanding achievement in game design, character-based storytelling, and player choice. So, if you've been hesitating to play it like I have then don't be a goof and check it out already; you almost certainly won't regret it. ⚔️
Baldur’s Gate 3 is nothing short of a masterpiece. The story is incredible, the world gorgeous and immersive, voice-over and writing of the highest quality, an amazing soundtrack, everything comes together in near perfect harmony. It’s not only the best RPG of the year, it’s the RPG of a generation.
Baldur's Gate III is everything an RPG adventure should be. It's appropriately epic while also spending time with the small moments. It allows you to feel powerful while also rewarding you for being clever and avoiding trouble. It offers the class fantasy of everything from a stalwart paladin to a hellish abomination, from fast-talking trickster to rage-filled barbarian. It has its quirks and flaws, but they usually add welcome texture to the game. Perhaps most importantly of all, it captures the feeling of sitting down and playing through a D&D adventure with some friends.
