JesterRaiinI understand that there are plenty of reasons to dislike a game, ANY game, BG3 included, but how tf “has no right to exist” is supposed to be an argument? Based on what, according to whom, because what?
Agreed
By their logic games like civ with its turn based fighting “had no right to exist” because counterstrike is popular…
Some people just enjoy being able to plan their actions and having a bird’s eye perspective on things.
Agreed. As someone who likes counterstrike, civ, baldurs gate 3, and I’ll even throw in the witcher, they all are fantastic games.
Just because some games are turn based, or isometric, or 2d, doesn’t make them bad games. The gameplay mechanics in BG3 are fantastic. You can look around the battlefield to plan the most destructive attack possible, or rush in hoping for the best. You get to set the pace of the game. In turn, taking too long to strategize in counterstrike will give you a huge disadvantage, both different types of gameplay that have mechanics built around the intended gameplay.
I love being able to actually think about a battle and plan. Does it take me longer than it should? Probably. But setting up and killing an entire goblin camp with some well placed barrels and a candle is fun to me.
DrunemetonNot to mention: Pausing.
Oh god yes!
Especially since becoming a parent being able to pause is more or less a must. That and being able to save at any point.

save at any point
OMGS that means you’re old enough, probably, to remember lying to your parents about not being at a save point so you just hafta keep playing a bit more…?
I’m old enough to have had games with no save at all. 😂
The original Zelda that could save your game was something out of the ordinary and a giant leap forward.

Wow that’s going way back!
It was a devastation kids these days will probably never know: Doing really, REALLY well on a game and it’s bedtime, “NO EXCUSES!”
So you reach out and turn it off, knowing that the zenith of your life was just crushed by your uncaring “caregiver(s)”… 😂🤣😂
I was mad at my mom for a week because I was doing amazing at “Pitfall” and…she sent my dad in (after her 3rd warning mind you)!
And before owning a console for your self you rented one from the video rental place. So you had to play focused and not waste time on things like eating or your parents wanting to watch the news since we of course only had the one tv 😂
Sobs in Dragon Warrior only being able to save at the king!
