Baldurs's Gate 3. I'm in 70 hours and I love IT so far
I really wanna try Baldurs gate myself might get it on steam sale prehaps two games I really wouldn't mind trying are baldurs gate and disco elysium
Bear in mind, BG3 is more much like your typical cRPG while Disco Elysium is more akin to Planescape: Torment but without combat.
Both are extremely well-written, and I would say Disco Elysium is arguably one of the best written games period, but don’t go into DE expecting a whole lot of combat - it’s much more like a visual novel than a cRPG.
You just made DE a whole lot more appealing to me.
De sounds awesome I would love another well written game like rdr2 to sink my teeth into and get tons of hours out of and this sounds like that sorta game
Both are amazing RPGs. Highly recommend checking them out.
Might check them out then I'll probably look at getting them at the Christmas steam sale I almost certainly want to check out disco elysium
I was told at some point to pirate disco elysium because the original devs got removed from making royalties on any sales prior to the release of the game. Does anyone know if this is a credible statement?
Yea, basically what happened was some crooked businessman took over their company by some very fucked up methods, ousted the people who made the game and stole their IP. This is the most justified case of piracy is good.
I can't find anything from the devs stating that either.
I'm doing an evil playthrough now and finding various things I missed from the first playthrough. But oof, I feel really awful about the horrible things the game lets you do. 😅
