A few weeks prior to its launch, Baldur’s Gate 3 looks like one of the most promising RPGs in recent memory. However, some devs are urging players not to rate all other games in the genre by such a high standard, appealing to Larian Studios’ unique combination of vast experience and resources.
It’s easier to lick my own elbow that to talk one of my friends to play a narrative driven, turn based, multi chapter RPG.

And it would be a real shame if something bad were to happen to that arrogant reptile looking wannabe prince dude on an unspecified beach… arealtragedy.
Or that skeleton looking Mofo that thinks he’s better than everybody because technicaly, he can’t die yeah,we’llseeaboutthat.
The most irritating thing is probably the narration. You have a visual medium of a video game and the only major rule of “Show, don’t tell.” is being broken in the first line of dialog.

Like really, you couldn’t have somebody jump on a wooden pallet to record a sound effect?
