With a game like Baldur's Gate 3, a number of factors make it successful—but perhaps none are as powerful as its side quest design.
Article makes a great point and I agree with it but is spoiler heavy. It should be marked. If you haven’t played through the game be warned as it even spoils parts of act 3.
This game rocks, everything is quality, and I love the cutscenes, which remind me of Dragon Age Origin.

While we were so hoping to not have to update owners of the console physical Deluxe Edition with any further news of delay, we’ve now run into more production issues which means that players who pre-ordered their PS5 North America copy that was expected to ship later this month, will now have to wait until July before they can get their hands on them.
Got that email like 2 weeks ago. Tbh I'm not tripping. I understand sht happens. I'm just glad they changed their minds on the physical release
I with you. I got the email is well. Happy to eventually own a physical copy and glad it’s not digital only.
Baldur's Gate 3 is so good it might actually be a bad place to start with RPGs.
Baldurs Gate 3 was great, but I dont think it is as crazy as people make it out to be. I actually think Starfield is closer to being a crazy insane once in a lifetime game, but Im ready for the flak Im about to get.
"Whatever the future of games looks like, content will always be king. But it’s going to be a lot harder to get good content if subscription becomes the dominant model and a select group gets to decide what goes to market and what not. Direct from developer to players is the way."
Very true.
100%
Lol I do like that whenever a dev of a popular game says something about subscriptions (gamepass) that some of us have been saying on here for years, it gets treated as groundbreaking wisdom/insight. Don't get me wrong, it's great to have devs with credibility back you up, but some of these obvious issues shouldn't need that kind of support for people to accept them.
I like this guy. They miffed on the physical release of bg3, then he came through for those of us that prefer that. He's spot on with this to
Larian studios, creators of one of the best games I have played in ages, have said what should be obvious at this point. The gamespass model is bad for gaming as a whole. Creativity will drop (it cost money), budgets get a lot tighter, and development time will get shorter. Games that have been out for a while and then released on there when it’s had its run should mostly be fine. FOMO will prevent most people from simply waiting months/years to play games on the sub.
