I just can't get into this game
I have started the game like a dozen times and it just never holds my interest. Combat is tedious in the extreme. The character models just look bad. Especially the short races. I know I'm in the minority but it just does do it for me.

I love the combat and I think the character models are fine and their expressiveness is out of this world. I also think the short races are wonderfully done. There's actually a lot of variety in them, especially the halflings.

Baldur's Gate 3 just isn't for you. Guess what? That's fine. That doesn't make it a bad game or you wrong for not digging it. I hate FPS games... and.... ? And I hate FPS games.

Go do what makes you happy.

So you admit to baiting a potential argument.
Pretty sure that violates the rules.

I'm not arguing with anyone...just posted my opinion. Apparently that's "against the rules"

Thats valid, not every game is fit for everyone. I hope you find a game that suits you better! :)

Just because everyone likes something, doesn't mean you have to. Its stupid to try to force yourself to. Unless its vegetables or some ♥♥♥♥, idk

Objectively, the character models are some of the best looking in the history of games. When you said the combat was tedious, did you also mean too difficult for you? Just wondering why you chose to restart.

Combat on the normal difficulty isn't hard for me. It just take forever. Reason for restarting is that I just get bored. Almost made it to act II but it became too much of a chore for me. Game just isn't for me it seems.

It has nothing to do with hand holding. I'm unclear how you deduced that. It's boredom.

boredom for you sure but for the most of us its not. you are in the different group

There's nothing wrong with being in the minority so long as you don't act like a childish contrarian.

The game won't be for everyone.

CRPG's have been a niche genre for a reason.

As an example, I think the Witcher 3 is a borefest.

That's me. Obviously it has merits that just don't jive with my idea of entertainment.

well i used to play it but not anymore...to many bugs to many updates making me go back to older saves..ect tons of reasons
