Baldur’s Gate 3 has always performed really well, but this month, after five months out, its huge playercount is somehow increasing.

I bounced right off BG3, just like I did DOS2. Personally, I enjoyed the Owlcat Pathfinder games much more.
I’ll probably give it another shot with a different character in a couple of weeks.
It took me a few weeks to get into it. I put it down a few times along the way and went back to CP2077.
A lot of the mechanics, items, spells, etc. still elude me.
That said, I’m now on the third act of my main campaign and every day I look forward to when I get some time to play it a bit more.
The story is fantastic, the voice acting is excellent, the graphics are beautiful and despite some clunkiness and the inherent complexity of a D&D game it’s thoroughly enjoyable by someone like me who’s never been much of a fan of the genre.
I think I still prefer owlcat games overall but damn, I really like how streamlined BG3 is. I do not miss the infinite buffing and pre-combat preparations that pathfinder boils down to in the end - and despite this I still feel like combat in BG3 is more tactical and I have more choices every turn in the end.
