On the easy difficulty level it’s not too intense, and you can save anywhere so you can definitely come at it in small bursts of time. Some days I have 3 hours to play, sometimes 10 minutes. It’s always a good time.
I’m not so sure how appropriate it is for a 14 year old, though. There’s a lot of brutal violence, macabre imagery, and sexual content that is questionable for a young teen.
I’d do a little more research into whether you’re sure it’s age appropriate, but on all other counts I’d say it’s a winner.
Also depends on the kid. I distinctly remember watching my dad play bg2 when I was 5ish, and then digging into it around 15/16 when I got a laptop for school. The gore and violence didn’t bother me, but not every kid is the same. I’d say it depends on what kind of media they already ingest.
🤔 Why can’t I find a commagazine for finding critters to play things with? There should definitely be one somewhere :-\
I won’t have BG3 for another couple of years, though, so I cannot offer to provide this with-playing service for you (but actually also myself 'cause bleeeh I haven’t actually talked to a person in ages) 😅
Oh gotcha. There is a community built around a D&D let’s play who call themselves, “Critters”, as a play on words with the title of said show, “Critical Role”. Thought that was what you were referring to.
So I didn’t realize that kbin wasn’t getting votes federated properly nor that the kbin/lemmy threadiverse thingle was so hateful until I came to Reddit 2Lemmy and saw that, as with Reddit 1, everything I say gets silently downvoted. Obviously these are just crappy people with nothing to actually say but damn, kinda makes this place feel awful like everybody’s just sitting around waiting for a chance to jump on people. Literal Reddit wasn’t this bad in my experience.
Astarion standing loudly silent in the background while Gale awkwardly rambled about adrenaline and how big and sweaty my muscles were apropos of nothing felt utterly appropriate. It's not my favorite screenshot, but it is secretly up there.
I reloaded a save I had from within the fight. I can’t get those spoiler tags to work, so I can’t get into more details without revealing the finale, but you definitely don’t have to repeat the whole fight. You just need to get to a point before it jumps into the epilogue to trigger it.
Been playing the game since its release and im happy to see this improvement. Just checked out the epilogue and it has multiple endings as well haha.
On top of that, it opens a few doors to future content on top of the existing ending cutscenes which looks awesome.
Cant wait for a sequel or the next chapter of the baldurs gate 3 story
I’m at the goblin camp in my playthrough but I had to go run an errand. I’ll update here once I down Min, Ragz, and Gut. Glad I didn’t go to the cave first which is my usual go-to.
Edit: Nothing different that I noticed with the three goblin bosses. They all went down pretty quick. Minthara did down two of my guys though which had me sweating.
I’ve sunk like 150 hours into the game, and my main character is in act 3, but act 3 is so fucking enormous I have no idea what I’m doing more than the first two acts lol.
Wish I could go back to those other places and see whats up with how the world changes
I think I was at about 160 hours when I finished the game, and I did everything I could find in Act 3, so you might be close to the end. I possibly skipped some content in Act 2 though, and I didn’t do the mountain creche.
My recommendation with act 3 is to split it up between multiple playthroughs. If you’re like me and care a little about the roleplaying aspect, just do the things your PC or party members would feel important. I’d spent a long time and made some decisions I personally wouldn’t have made if not for keeping with my characters’ story; it didn’t make sense to me to go hunting down every nook and cranny of a huge city while it’s on the brink of destruction. There’s just too much to do!
