How is the game compared to PoE Deadfire and actual DnD?

I absolutely hated PoE Deadfire, biggest regret in mylife to buy that. 0 voice acting npc wise, combat was uninteresting and the overall places were boring and stale graphics wise

DnD on the other hand, i play that with a friend circle each monday and enjoy that alot.

All in all, just wanted to know how it is compared to PoE Deadfire and actual DnD and if the coop is anything good as a friend and i considered buying the game :-)

good rebuttal, clearly shows you actually have an argument and you aren't trolling.

mocking aside: the game uses the modern version of the D&D rulesset(5e) and remains true to it very well, new players or players who have played it for years will be able to quickly grasp the game for that very reason, and see it as the D&D game its shaping to be.

from home brew cantrip to a massive amount of exploding barrel never saw in any crpg ever, I say no this game is not "true to it" extremly far from it acctualy, from bonus action , to jump/disangage,ability to cast 2 spell per round, boosted HP every where, there is so many change to rules I can't even enumerate them all. every aspect/rules is changed ,only the dice are true to it. but even then, they changed how the check are made.

since when a apple can heal you more then a healing pot or spell? that came directly from DOS2

I would like to see a live DM allowing a player to swing his swrod at the enemy and then EAT a compleate uncook pork head duing the same round....

k champ, these things just exist, you can dislike it but they're still D&D

PoE is a diablolike, it's nothing like this. Combat in this is turn based, you run with a 4-member party.
This game has absolutely amazing voice acting, environment design, character development and an incredible amount of variability and replayability.
If you enjoy Dungeons and Dragons a lot, you'll like this game as well. It's based on it.

Mind you, Early Access is Beta Testing.

Still open beta, you have plenty of time to watch some youtube vids and see for yourself.

They mean Pillars of Eternity, not Path of Exile.

The problem with all these people complaining... Is that they've only ever played the PC versions of DnD and have never touched the real DnD.

There are plenty of beginners guide to 5th Edition DnD on Youtube. Yall go educate yourselves.

It holds up really well.

In terms of sales (according to steamspy) the early access is already more successful than PoE: Deadfire.

It has the same action economy of D&D 5E, which the game is based off of so it does a great job being a D&D game. The races and the characters also do a really good job living up to the Forgotten Realms lore.

There are a few issues. Changes have been made between what is an action and a bonus action, and things that were unique to one class are now available to every class, but that first class has been given some extra goodies so they aren't screwed over. Example is that every class can use a bonus action to try and hide like a rogue, but rogues who take the thief subclass now get two bonus actions per turn, and it's a lot easier to get advantage on attacks for that juicy sneak attack damage.

Why people insist on this being a "DoS 2 reskin"????
Get a new pair of glasses and read the game's title: Baldurs gate 3.

same game engine, same UI , same dev, same game mechanic(environemnet/barrel, new saw in any dnd game but in both dos), the list goes on and on

yet not a single similarity with pervious bg games. you just a larian white knight

first and third are true, other 2 aren't, which is pretty obvious

Same dev therefore same game? what?

Engine, Yes, Ui, No, (which is an issue cause its baaaaad), Those are such surface level bull...

That way i can say every cellshaded game is literally borderlands, tales of the walking dead? borderlands. Definitely.

The entire action economy is different, all the classes is different, its entirely different games that are both RPG's and this one follows 5e's rules quite well, There are changes and you can definitely feel the touch of the studio for sure, but acting like this isnt a game based on 5e with attempted improvement is just delusional, and calling it a reskin is just blatantly wrong.

(Man i love these wangrods who wants every game developer to scrap millions of dollars worth of assets and animations for minor things or call it a reskin, grow up, get a job, try to figure out what earning money is like, then see if you want to set fire to millions to appease forum trolls)

its the same game.

it look the same, it play the same, all the icone are the same, the ui is the same etc etc , you are blind or what ?

the only major dif. is the cinematic/dialoge.

but does not look, play, feel like bg 1 or 2

it would be call dos3 nobody would have notice the dnd rule

It will be a lot of fun once it's finished, right now there's just a pretty limited selection of classes and subclasses. There's already a lot of mods too that add some other classes, albeit missing a lot of features and like, spell icons and whatnot.

Totally same UI, Mhmmm

Whatever, another low tier troll, If you think the ENTIRELY DIFFERENT COMBAT SYSTEM is the same because they are both turnbased then i question your ability for rational thought.

oh i know, i remember the thread he made about how he'd give a "fair review" after playing the game for 2 hours and then refund it several weeks ago, he then got banned right after, and it appears he kept the game, interesting
