It's a great game, but so was Divinity: Original Sin 2. The main difference, besides the rules swap, is the cutscenes and dialogue animations.
I think BG3 is riding on the D&D brand and marketing campaign. In my mind there isn't a massive difference between BG3 and D:OS2 (or other titles they've done) from a pure gameplay perspective.
Regardless, I'm for it. Hopefully we'll see more innovative and high budget CRPGs.
It will eventually incorporate user inputs in the model. So yes it won't learn in real time from other users, but at some point those inputs will be fed back into itself.
Hmm very different experience for me, I don't have any problems with the native Linux version. Hardly any crashes or performance issues. I don't use any mods so maybe that's the reason.
Yes which is why I chose Vulkan over DX11. But depending on the Vulkan implementation for a specific game, sometimes converting DX to Vulkan might function better.
I've been using Vulkan in Linux with an AMD card. Seems mostly fine except the occasional black boxes during cut scenes (about 15% of the edge of the screen). I haven't tried DX11 yet.
Use it for every flight and long train/bus ride. Brought it to LAN parties instead of bringing my desktop. Typically I only play indie games or non-demanding games.
For comparison: I also own a GPD Win 2, it was more of a hassle and I didn't play on it as often.
I think we'll be in bad shape when you can't trust any opinions about products, media, politics, etc. Sure, shills currently exists, so everything you read already needs skepticism. But at some point bots will be able to flood very high quality posts. But these will of course be lies to push a product or ideology. The truth will be noise.
I do think this is inevitable, and the only real guard would be to move back to smaller social circles.

I've been waiting for the full release before playing
Exactly. I should have expanded further, but I was including Forgotten Realms as part of the D&D brand.
