Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!
Please don’t forget to use the spoiler tag as soon as you start talking about a storyline.
Gave Baldur’s Gate 3 a try, I don’t think it’s for me. I didn’t realize before starting that I absolutely fucking hate that kind of RNG, the Mindflayer “aesthetic” (body horror á la HR Giger-on-some-less-friendly-hallucinogenics? Check. Eye scream? Check. ), the threat of having content locked behind “lol, fuck you, you got the wrong dice roll hours ago”, and, under the hood, a bunch of spreadsheet-esque mechanics I don’t know jack about, never having played DnD.
Shame, seems like a lot of fun if you’re into it.
I save scum in this play through, but I dont intend to on the next one. Part of the magic is that the game adapts to your bad dice rolls. Just because you succeeded a roll doesn’t mean it’s the “good” option. It’s just a different one.
And the eye horror stuff is really only in the intro (although I’m only 20 hours in so it may come up later)
