I haven't been playing this myself, but a couple of friends have. Their verdict is "It's quite Skyrim'ish and pretty fun... but it's OBNOXIOUSLY monetized." So... Given that I'm still having a great time in BG3, I think I'll give DD2 a pass. XD

There were some rumours (very unconfirmed, I should add) that WotC/Hasbro were heavily leaning on Larian to add in things like microtransactions for BG3 or additional content, and ultimately that was a red line for Larian. Because yeah, I agree that something must have gone very sour between...

Very sad news. :( Although not entirely unexpected. I was expecting there to be no expansions for BG3 (since Larian had pretty much written themselves into a corner with some of the endings. Any expansion involving God Gale, for example, would be extremely difficult to do short of pulling a...

Hmm, that last comment suggests that Larian's next project will probably not be a D&D one then. If it were, I'm sure they would have already reached out to WotC regarding their ideas, since Sven said that he was already in the plot planning stages.

Now that you mention it... You're talking about that room in the guild hall with all of the fake locked doors for the Thieves to practice their lockpicking skills on, aren't you? :D

I learned about this from a Discord site. I haven't verified if it works myself, but if it does, it might prove very useful for an Honor Mode run if one doesn't mind being a teensy bit exploity. ;) So, you know that warded Selunite chest in the Owlbear cave? I've been told that if you take that...

Almost certainly the former, yeah. And it's a decision that will almost certainly come back to bite them in the rear. D&D is on a high right now given the positive reception it's had in things like Honor Among Thieves and (much more broadly) in BG3, but Hasbro looks to be canning a lot of the...

Heh, I'm afraid I'm STILL on the "They shouldn't have called it Baldur's Gate 3" train, but I will admit, they did at least do Minsc and Jaheira justice with regards to their personality and motivations. I am STILL not a fan of some of the plot inconsistencies that happen due to them being there...

My dream would be a AAA RPG on the scale and depth of BG3, set in either Ravenloft or Dark Sun. :)

Speaking selfishly I would want to be free to explore BG3 in all its nuances for at least 3-4 years. XD But I am TOTALLY on board with a Neverwinter Nights 3, especially if it also comes along with a DM client and the ability for players to construct custom modules and adventures and breathe...

That was a stirring story. :) And now that I know a little more about how the companions are scripted, I believe I know how this might actually work behind the scenes...

I wouldn't call myself a real hardcore Blizzard fan (although I did play, and love, a lot of their seminal works from the 90's and early 00's), but yeah, it's saddening to see the fall of Blizzard. They were the last of the great development houses of the 90's (along with other companies like...

Hehe, in all seriousness though, I might actually drop some of them and keep the number to around 6'ish (just like the originals <3). The original reason why I wanted to bring everybody at once was because I wanted to see all of their reactions and responses to various situations. However, in a...

Alas, I'm kinda particular about my runs and I almost always stick with single classes. :p I did some reading about the recommended MC options and some of them are indeed very powerful (if not outright broken), but that's fine by me. I'm running a mod that eliminates the party size limit so I'm...

I notice that our resident Bah Humbug girl Lae'zel did not approve. ;P

Those myconids have, uh... oddly plump rears for a fungus race that reproduce entirely via airborne spores. XD

I couldn't keep him alive in the fight with Commander Zhalk (in fairness, I TOTALLY used him as a meat shield) and now I miss my little brain puppy. :(

Yeah, I think I'm going to have to take the plunge and upgrade my PC too. I've been researching parts and components over the last week. I'll probably make the purchase tonight. This is SUPER helpful to know. Thanks! :D

Hmm, I'll give Vulkan a try tonight and see how that holds up then.

To echo Cahir, let me know if you find a good workaround too! Like you, I'm very used to using RMB as my "freelook camera" button, but being unable to use it for Inspect (another super common function I find myself doing) is quite the pain.
