I bought the digital deluxe edition, but like.. how do I buy more of this? I tried giving the game 11/10 on Metacritic but the meter only goes to 10.

But on a serious note...

BG3 is simply a sheer masterpiece of a game. A true project of passion that respects gamers time, money, and desire for quality. Nearly every aspect of this game is evidence of a love for the craft as opposed to overt greed via bare minimum aspiration.

This game is gorgeous, and the environments are varied. The companions are fascinating and extremely interesting and likeable. Itemization is great, its actually fun to find magic items and learn about all the neat things they can do. Freedom of choice is interwoven in to the very fabric of every fork in the road. Combat is a bit slow, but extremely fun and interesting. They nailed the feeling of 5E D&D. The game is mind-boggingly repayable as every narrative choice has the potential of profoundly changing entire outcomes of the game as you play on.

In an age where everything needs to have a shallow battle pass progression system, overpriced cosmetic store, pay-to-win MTX, and treadmill gaming where you feel like you're going in circles without any actual meaningful content to make it worthwhile, this game feels like an absolute unicorn, and it's sad, because just 15-20 years ago, this type of game was the expected norm.

Of course no game is perfect, and there are some minor blemishes here, but I honestly wish I could give this game 11/10. Larian deserves it, and the game industry needs to take note. I sure hope they keep hitting it out of the park. They feel like the old Blizzard and Bioware used to feel like when every game release was a massive legendary banger. It's refreshing to play a game that doesn't feel like a game grafted onto a credit card terminal.

Do yourself a favour and buy this game, and while you're at it go back and try the Divinity Series as they are also fantastic.
