A very fun game especially if you're into this genre but, even if you're not, you'll have a great time with it. Combat feels a little slow and complicated at times and the game is certainly not without its bugs, however, Baldur's Gate 3 is a great time with lots of choices, stories to discover, and an eclectic cast of characters with an incredible amount of dialogue.
My wife and I played this game together, completing it in around 90 hours, we've also finished Divinity Original Sin 2 in the past as well and had a lot of fun with that as well, I would probably say I preferred DOS2 in fact, I think I just vibed with the mechanics a bit more than BG3.
We had a bit of a horrible time in the final battle, so much so that I turned the difficulty down to 'Story' and proceeded to beat it in our next attempt - I would argue it was probably TOO easy at that point, the victory felt quite hollow, if I'm honest.
In any case, we had a good time with this game and look forward to the next installment (Or, hopefully, Divinity Original Sin 3) even though we weren't necessarily the target audience. I look forward to having a bit more free time now.

This game has taken years off my life, especially that final boss fight. My 7-year-old daughter wanted me to play this game so I obliged, however, my stance on Pikmin games remains the same - They are stressful and I don't enjoy them. I get such a feeling of anxiety at the thought of losing even a single Pikmin so imagine my distress when I took to the final battle and lost so... so many Pikmin... But I'm happy to report that I finished the game and with my sanity still in tact - Let's see if this is still true after we inevitably face the 4th installment in the franchise. Wish my luck.

This game is hot garbage. I played it with my 7-year-old daughter (Who, frankly, could have written a better story and better dialogue) and the whole experience was painful. The combat is awful, the platforming is janky, the co-op is a nightmare because if you get even a little bit too far away from your partner, you just despawn - often for no reason at all - and then you have to press a button to spawn back in again. We sped-run through the story and even that was too much for me, there's no chance in hell that I'm going back to get all the collectibles, I don't care how cool the unlockable outfits are. Also, I waited the entire game to find out when this so-called 'Sphinx' was going to 'rise'... How is a butterfly a sphinx anyway?!
