What do you want to see in BG 3?

[Mestre12]

For me, i want to see Dragonborn and Warforge races and a revision of the ranger, since, they will use 5E, in special, beastmaster

[Mestre12]

SO, what do you guys want to see in BG3?

I want to see a faithful implementation of 5E rules, because I'v ejust picked up the tabletop game after 30 years and I have no idea what I'm doing, lol

I'd also like to see heavy investment in lore, lots of books and easter eggs, etc.

Things like a complex, grand story, and whatnot, are givens. To me it's the little things that make it memorable.

a minsc and/or boo cameo or referance.

and winthrop referance. or at least an inn as clean as an elven arse.

We can start with turn-based... RTWP is okay, I guess, but Original Sin and my already existing love of SRPGs make me really want this to be turn-based.

Personally, they should have named it something else. And just left Baldur's gate where's at and went with one of the other areas on Faerun, there's TONS of lore. But at the end of the day, I'm just happy it's not beamdog developing it.

I'm sensing some dislike for kingmaker there ^

[Cokomantis]

oh, and lots of portraits to choose from.

i mean LOTS. like 1000 worth of lots.

I just want a faithful resurgence and a proper D&D based Crpg that all of us original players can be happy with.
So much dumbing down of and streamlining of games these days (Remember when Dragon Age Origins was supposed to be a Baldur's Gate successor? )

In a more tangible sense though, unlike the D:OS games where Larian obviously split their resources (which unfortunately showed in places) I want this to be a pure singleplayer experience through and through.
If they feel the need to tack on some multiplayer after the fact post launch that a handful of percentage of people may actually partake in then so be it; but I don't want that distracting and taking away from the core development.

Good writing

[Drezta]

Also, explicitly not warforged as they are native only to Eberron. :P

A lot more replayability and more living/breathing world.

I'm still new to these types of games and I never played a Baldurs Gate game before, I am noticing a loop of questing an area dry, drying up loot, and drying up enemies. By this point you are forced to move on to the next part of the story. That gets boring rather quickly. At first everything is alive, then some hours later everything is bland cause you already did everything. If there was something that prevented that from happening, and allowed the opportunity and incentive for the player to stick around for longer before moving on (such as farming enemies or loot or something), then I would be in love.

Real time combat with pause, there is no other option for me in a BG game. Not a huge fan of turn based-combat. But in BG games especially it's a huge no for me. The first Baldur's Gate is one of my most cherished gaming memories so this announcement was a hugely positive surprise. Let's hope it delivers.

I would like to see a game that looks like the trailer, minus the KFC grease he's spitting up.

[Cokomantis]

having the narrator from the original games would be phenomenal, with him voicing the "dm" in dialog boxes as well, à la dos2.
