Games we’re playing

Amanda – I’m playing Diablo 4 still and the grind is starting to kick in. I’ve done all the season progress I can so far without being level 70+, so I’m grinding exp on glyphs – long ting. The mid-end game isn’t that fun outside of playing couch co-op.

Stacy– I’m playing Baldur’s Gate 3. It’s the best RPG I’ve played. It’s so hard in the best way. Every encounter could be your last. Or the most rewarding thing you’ve done. I cast a grease spell yesterday and accidentally cast it close to a brazier, it ignited the entire grease-covered space and helped AOE the mobs down. Completely unintentional. But for the developers, it was in the plan! The environment is such a part of the game you literally can’t play the same playthrough twice.

What Baldur’s Gate 3 Means for the Gaming Industry

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.
