If you never played the original Baldurs Gate games or the devs original Divinity Original Sin games then you are in for an absolute treat.

This game is basically Dungeons and Dragons with so many ways to play and have fun.

Imagine if you will a half demon and a Dragonborn walk into a bar. The Dragonborn is a bard and the half demon is what is called a Tiefling. The two are best friends ready to take on the world. They meet a dark elf who is a powerful druid that can turn into a spider and a dwarf who is also warlock. The four of them find themselves surrounded by bandits but fret not the Dragonborn sings his tunes to make the Tiefling stronger. The drwarf helps freeze them in place and the druid spins her spindly legs to eat the bandits.

Together they will save the world. Well if your brain imagines all that in your own way then welcome to Baldurs Gate 3.
