News Baldur's Gate III (Larian) - coming to Earrly Access in October 2020

[Arulan]

I've only played a little so far. I found three companions and immediately found my way to the Druid Grove. My plan was just to mess around with the classes a little, so I don't think I'll progress further.

I'm strongly leaning towards playing a Shield Dwarf Cleric when it releases. I'm not sure about my domain or deity yet, but it does depend on what the final options are.

I'm pretty confident there will be more companions than those announced so far, but I am a little concerned about the party composition limitations for a size of 4.

Besides, I also agree with the very vocal group claiming that a 4-men party feels way too restrictive.

I think 5 is the sweet spot for me. It lets you cover the classic party members(warrior, cleric, mage, thief), but also have some overlap.

I really hope they end up having a lot more companions... Ideally 1 per class.

Lame bug where the gloves of power cast bane on ME as well as my target. sigh.

Well that's enough BG3 for one day for me. I broke it.

Everyone's turn is over and nobody is moving.

Not a bug, it's part of a quest that isn't in the game yet. Took me ages to realise.

It reads:

...aid any who bear the absolute's mark upon their flesh - but woe any non-believer who hopes to steal their power
