Main Topic – Baldur’s Gate 3
SPOILERS IN THIS EPISODE
For even people who have never played D&D, Baldur’s Gate 3 is a fun, immersive experience where every choice feels impactful. It’s a full experience, only $60, not $70, and free from DLC and other predatory microtransactions. And it’s fully-voice acted with fleshed-out encounters in the thousands. It doesn’t hold your hand. It gives you the freedom to try and fail. But there is some objection to this. We discuss in today’s main topic.
