whenever i go looking into help or random talk about bg3 i keep seeing people like comparing it to dragon age either in expectations or selling points and bro. ghirl. its not dragon age. its baldurs gate

#gale is not going to be another Betraying Mage because hes not a MAGE hes a WIZARD #COMPLETELY different set of stereotypes there. now go be a sorcerer for funny rivalry dialogue with him #two completely different settings. two completely different systems. theres already an existing continuity. go play the other baldurs gates #theres two Other games and they interconnect with the two neverwinter nights and several other oldass d&d crpgs. not everything is bioware #bioware wasnt even the first game with romanceable companions go play nwn2s and get disappointed as all ur LIs die in incredibly funny ways #i am annoyed by this as much as im sure dragon age fans are annoyed by the idea of it being released after bg3 and therefore drawing the #inevitable comparisons itself #also nwn2's Main Story (the expansion) (dont ask its a funny production story) is one of the most interesting fantasy plots ive ever played #even considering that. the by the numbers base game story for it is also fun and clever since they may have had their hand forced on what #sort of story they could tell there but they did have fun with it. picking at and parodying the tropes #if ur big on 5e lore though it might be just a bit incomprehensible since its 3.5e and includes concepts like #the wall of the faithless as a minor plot point which. i cant remember if thar exists in 5e anymore #and bishop and gann being atheists but still getting spells #probably by some god who thought itd be funny
