what a shame baldurs gate combat is trash compared to D:OS

This

pre order cancelled
unsubbed from their email list

It's being made by Larian, people were wondering if Baldur's Gate 3 would be turn based, like Divinity: Original Sin 2, or real time. Now we know.

good
I still like divinity, though.

good

as long as its turn based or real time its fine. RTwP is cringe

whats a good party setup for DOS 1?

Its gonna be like KOTOR or Dragon Age

:(

OH NO NO NOOOOOOOOO

Still 0 proof that a non sjw writer is writing it and it won't have an abundance of unnecessary trump bashing, niggers, gays, trannies, and sassy black ladies everywhere.

And? read I loved BG2 for that reason

yes yes yes

have sex

i smile when i see these types of posts because i imagine the near future where i will witness poltards like you being executed in the street

Currently playing through BG2 in anticipation for BG3
I've amassed 20K gold for Gaelan Bayle - Should I just continue with the story or is it worthwhile to do all the side shit in Athkatla?

Muh lesbian blacksmith.

and the rest of arx

Real time isn't bad, but I've been playing Temple of Elemental Evil and turn based is so fucking good for D&D. We'll see how it turns out.

Aww

yet you contribute with frogs and wojaks

then why are you here

Goddamit, too scared to kill the sacred cow of the shitties combat system in the world.

Never pay the 20k.

Contact first with the "other" ones that can help you to reduce the pay at 15k.

Mass 35k is fucking easy in the game, waste the first 20k in equipment and then pay the 15k ones.

That's a nope from me dawg.

Yeah, and it was bad. No one fondly remembers Baldur Gate 2's combat, they remember the characters and reactivity.

i enjoy finding ways to cheese enemies its better than spending 1 hour on a fight with a trash mob with larian turn based

Way to out yourself as someone who is either a retard or someone who has never played OS
You need to put some more effort into your shitposts if you want to make them believable

except in divinity there are hardly any instances of this as most encounters have some importance or can just be avoided

what, the OS games are ridiculously cheesable

Prove it to me that the writing will be competent and sjw-free and I'll be interested.

>Larian
>competent

Boops

Really? No one is going to make fun of the description? It LITERALLY says "An ancient evil" has awoken.

good. fuck turn-based.

Halo killed the meme by using the exact quote unironically.

BG is over 20 years old, grandpa, it is ancient

>No one fondly remembers Baldur Gate 2's combat, they remember the characters and reactivity.
I distinctly remember sending Minsc in solo to fight a bunch of mind flayers while he was berserk and he was mopping the floor with them.

I really tried to like this type of combat but I just can't, it's 30 seconds of prebuffing before each encounter and then either you oneshot everything or miss 7 times in a row and die, then reload and hope for better rng

Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 were REAL-TIME too.

puffy

not in a fun way though. no kiting, no feebleminding giant dragons, no using time stop just slavishly using the same elemental shield over and over

bulgy - puffy - bulgy

Ah, yeah, you played OS1 at release too? That was too far. Leveling a single mage past, what, level 6? trivialized the game. 2 as well, Web just fucking broke the game. Struck a better balance when they had some patches.
Gotta disagree they're not fun to cheese though, act 1 of OS1 is fucking godlike.

>kiting
>fun

kys

Good, fuck turn based.

>trash fights
>in OS
Oh lawd you've got brain damage don't you? Poor thing.

Fuck off. This is the worst that could have happened to this game. I'm not going to buy it.

It's fucking nothing, not even Swen nor anyone in Larian knows if it's going to be RTwP or TBS, though personally I wish it was RTwP
Each rabbi on Yea Forums preaches different thing, it's either TB because Larian or RTWP because GoG
>implying any speculations about BG3 are to be taken seriously when they've sold us hype and a teaser so far

just like disable pause nigga

And suddenly I care less.
People have a real nostalgia boner for the real time combat of Baldur's Gate, but its objectively trash and you spend a bunch of time pausing anyway. Turn based captures the feel of tabletop more accurately anyway.

Divinity Original Sin 2 was unironically a better DnD game than Baldur's Gate. We already saw from Pillars of Eternity that people just don't enjoy real time anyway. They went back after the fact and tried to shoehorn turn based gameplay into that because of it.

I'd be happy if Obsidian didn't drive RTwP into the ground.

Game isn't made to be played in full real time aside from trash fights, you're not gonna be able to micro properly without pausing.

>not even Swen nor anyone in Larian knows if it's going to be RTwP or TBS
Of course they know what it's going to be. The question is why they feel the need to withheld literally any kind of information about it. I assumed the teaser's release in the days leading up to E3 was intentional so the game had a few days to amass hype in time for an 'actual' reveal during the PC show, which as far as I know has yet to be confirmed.
It seems to me like the most logical approach would be adding both as an option (Like in Deadfire) to appease both crowds, but if that was the case then I can't understand why they haven't just confirmed that. Either they're withholding information or the combat is going to be something else entirely

>all zoomers filtered out
Based Larian

>Divinity Original Sin 2 was unironically a better DnD game than Baldur's Gate
Then why don't they make a DnD video game that isn't Baldur's Gate 3?
What is it going to have in common with BG1 or 2 other than title or taking place in the city of Baldur's Gate at some point?

DOS2 isn't a DnD game, it's not even a crpg.

>it's not even a crpg

Stopped reading there.

>The question is why they feel the need to withheld literally any kind of information about it.
As I said, my guess is that hype, assumptions and speculations sell more than concrete information. Look how gullible fools spout fanfiction about what the game is going to be like and how it's going to be GOAT, they've shown only a teaser and gullible people CAN'T get it why some people are pessimistic, cautious or not hype.

Welp, my day is ruined.

Just enough to read the entire post, you've given him a free (You)

Good.

Real-time with pause is retarded every single time it's in a game

*dab*

Good, turn based games are so frustrating and boring that I want to die.

i dont see how anyone would even consider anything else, baldurs gate is all about real time and not turned based. its not even a question

You return to Athkatla after a few chapters. It depends on how quick you want to rescue Imoen

>too slow
>when you can pause any time

the problem isn't the speed it's that it makes positioning and spell casting an absolute clusterfuck.real time was literally a "streamlined" degeneration from turn-based systems that appealed to normies because of instant gratification. The genre died until the very recent nostalgia revival because, as per usual, normies don't want what they think they want.

You dont even need to play turned based games on computer, you can just play board game in real life. It's also more about if you want a strategic "realism" experience or some traditional board game experience. people that playes baldurs gate and dragon age, want the strategic realism where timing and concurrent events plays a role.

Well, your post got deleted, so that speaks for the status of posting anything containing pits.

>Opportunity attacks in real time
>Spell casting timers
>No action queue so you’re constantly trying to avoid cancelling your current action without wasting time

Real time is straight garbage and everyone with taste knows it

yes yes, but BG2 was rtwp

Doesn’t matter. Just means you have to play every fight super slowmo just waiting for something to twitch and move so you can start dumping stuns and interrupts. There’s no reason not to go turn based

The only game with "good" rtwp combat I've seen was Pathfinder Kingmaker and it still would have been better as turn-based.

can people that didnt play baldurs gate enough - to figure out the progammable character ai - leave this thread, this is not your game, just play other games pls

and here I was excited..

>Wanting AI to pick actions

Maybe people want a better system.

Personally i do everything before going to spellhold. Some quest can be hard at low level so if you run into a wall do it later. Its hard to say without spoiling too much.

What class are you?

Paladin
Someone said it was the best choice for a first playthrough

Good. wouldn't feel like Baldur's Gate without it and fuck the Larianfaggots for wanting every single cRPG to have shitty tactics combat it's ok in OS games because those sell themselves on gimmicky environmental/kinetic damage dealing not every game needs to have this.

Dropped.

You can go ahead and miss me with that RTwP shit.

neverwinter 3 when

>he needs time to look at the battlefield and plan his actions
AH HAHAHAHHAA

Never played Baldur's Gate. Is this new one going to be something like Skyrim or Dragon Age? Or is it going to be a shitty isometric turn-based, neckbeard role-playing game from the 90's?

It's gonna be shit and you know it.

Hey lets make this 150hour game into a 300+one

fuck you.

yes

Reminder that Turn-based is for console babies.
Real PCchads use RTWP.

...So, like the previous games?

Turn-based combat doesn't really pad out game length compared to rtwp if it's properly implemented.

That's why there's so many turn based and first person CRPGs and only 5 (terrible) infinity engine games.

Real time in a D&D is stupid because it gets rid of so much class utility, it turns into unga bunga me smash

its going to be like dragon age, or at worst isometric real time pausable game

>you don't even need to play D&D games on computer, you can just play D&D games in real life
baldurs gate and nwn are purposeless

Because branding matters. Forgotten Realms as a brand matters because it sells not just videogames but rule books, figures, and more.
They know after 40 fucking years that as long as they have a brand, nothing else matters.

>RTWP
another RPG I can't play. shame, but I guess it's good they're sticking with what the franchise is known for.

Why are the Forgotten Realms even "forgotten" anyway? They seem to have been very extensively remembered and described.

Dropped, no interest in point 'n click RTwP poofterisms. Hardly surprising that the series that ruined PC RPGs for so long with that cancer is using it again though. I was just hoping Larian knew better after dropping that shit gameplay themselves ages ago.

What if 'Real time' means real time with no pause
Are we, dare I say it, finally getting the western Dragon's Dogma we rightfully deserve?

The nigger, everyone.

No, we are getting the party-based Divine Divinity that we have longed for.

Real-time with pause is a shit RPG system that combines the worst of real-time combat and the worst of turn-based combat.

I want to romance Edwina!

So you agree the decision to entitle the game Baldur's Gate 3 is a cashgrab?

going on the responses in this thread most are too shit to handle a real time game with no pause.

I agree we should get rid of the Turn-based shit entirely and have no pause.

No, turn-based combat is fine. Real-time combat is fine. Trying to mix the two ends up with something worse than both.

Turn-based is for children and old people.

Turn-based is for people who want actual strategy. It's the thinking-man's combat system.

Tell that to all the pro RTS players

The existence of Bauldur's Gate, including the interplay published one, is a play off the FF license.
The reason for using real time over turn based is for those nostalgic for the actual fucking videogame and not those nerds buying rulebooks for Spelljammer.

These are two separate fucking things.

Jesus there are already so many fucking turn-based rpgs out there for you guys, let people who like RTWP have some.

Good. Turns based shitters are seething lmao
