minus-squareIlflish@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up18arrow-down1·1 month agoYep makes sense. I mean it’s clear people hate deep systems when something like Baldur’s Gate 3 becomes the undisputed Game of the Year /s

It’s needlessly complicated (15 strength gives you what bonus? How does readying an action work? Can you smite when unarmed?), but it’s not really deep.
minus-squareTachyonTele@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·1 month agoI agree. I played Pathfinder WotR right before BG3 and I was very confused by the lack of class options. It’s pretty simple straight forward stuff. JRPGs (which came from DnD) can be a lot deeper than BG3.
