I remember when all these games were just coming out and the hype surrounding them. My favourite was always Minsc and his hamster companion Boo from BG1.
I adore Minsc but feel like WoTC has started flooding him into stuff once they realized that he was popular. He’s in a comic, in Magic the gathering now, and I think even showed up in modules and games. Their involvement in any of this has made me trepidatious, tbh. It sounds like Larian may have made a good game despite them. (I have my own nitpicks there but I’m a very inflexible and nostalgic person, so that’s to be expected.)
I’ve played BG1, BG2, and a shit ton of NWN. I am an hour or two into BG3 and I’m happy so far.
Feels somewhat like ‘Divinity OS does DND’ but I enjoyed the system before and it seems to fit well enough to the setting.
