Baldur's Gate 3 Retrospective | A Fantastic Journey to a Mediocre Destination
Просмотров 9 тыс.9 месяцев назад
Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the most enjoyable games i've ever played. I decided to take notes and analyze what makes it great and it's short comings. I know there has been some patches, hotfixes and updates since launch. So maybe some graphically issues I had will no longer be present. At the end the script for this video essay ended up being 38 pages long and over 25k words. This video took an ...

    Welcome to Outward, always assume the battle is never in your favor. Stack the odds against your enemies. Buffs, food, make your enemies fight each other, necromancy, or my favorite: traps everywhere.

    Skyrim is much more user friendly. Additionally, Todd Howard gave a very useful tool for the gamers: the Creation Kit. With this powerful tool you can customize your games exactly how do you want. In KCD, a lot of things were screwed up. Archery and Maintenance in KCD is almost totally useless, lockpicking sucks (you aren't able to open a chest at very hard level unless you robe the whole country and many times the bandits have not the keys for their own chests) and so on. KCD is good but not better than Skyrim.

    • @andriyshepard3095
      @andriyshepard3095 4 дня назад

      archery is not useless, but it requires skill, which you obviously lack. Lockpicking is good, but again you need to learn it. In short, all of your mentioned ''cons'', are just your lack of skill lmao.

    • @BatmanClassics1966
      @BatmanClassics1966 4 дня назад

      ​@@andriyshepard3095 you didn't listen to me my dude. You did not only need your in-game skills for using this fucked archery skill in this game but you need to have some sense too.Without a crosshair or just a single dot it's pretty shitty to use a bow - at least, for me. By the way, a really good RPG game's point is that you have more than one ways and you can choose your own way freely without any problem. In KCD, I think this kind of "freedom" is strongly restricted. When you kill some bandits and they have some closed chests then you should guess that they have some keys to these chests so after you killed and looted them then you should be able to open these chests without any problems. In KCD, chests of bandits can't be opened without lockpicking. In Skyrim, you can kill bandits or you can steal their keys and now you can get the loot of their chests, got it?

    Each has their pros and cons: Skyrim offers third person view and KCD offers horse-riding nausea. Skyrim has cool-ass fantasy armors while KCD has Pepsi cans. Skyrim offers frustratingly buggy and broken scripts while KCD just offers frustrating gameplay Skyrim offers unrealistic power scaling and imbalanced skill allocations while KCD offers realistic first-person swordfights. Skyrim offers assisted point-and/shoot archery while KCD offers "calculate the trajectory of the sun and just eyeball it" type-of archery.

That being said I’ve made multiple characters and have several hours in the game much better with coop buddy probably my favorite game I’ve played with my buddy in a while. Still a shit game but in a good? Way?? 🤷‍♂️

    I wish there were more games like this on the market that focus more on the simulation aspect, rather than feeling more restrictive and holding your hand, i think immersive sims fall into a similar category as this game, being able to carve your own path to a certain extent, figuring out a solution on your own instead of being led to one, genuinely a fantastic game.

    That's not a very high bar. Skyrim is mediocre and serviceable at best, a shallow experience with lackluster combat, atrocious writing and a serious pacing issue at worst. Bethesda hasn't made a truly good game since Morrowind. It's the modding community that keeps Skyrim afloat.

    On the first try on the game I got really annoyed by the wonky character movements and was frustrated after failing the first time limited quest. I quickly abandoned the game. On my second take, I made it past the first dungeon and gradually it began to shine. Now I have completed the game twice with 250 hours sunk in. Literally one of the best exploration rpg out there, I can't wait for the sequel.

    As for there being no smithing in the game, I’m actually glad it’s absent. The game’s greatest strength is its extremely high fidelity toward showing the medieval era as it really was, and smithing as we know it from other RPG’s just wouldn’t make sense for the world they’ve built. Other titles tend to make smithing look like an all-encompassing discipline, where you can craft any variety of armor (ranging from leather to heavy plate), weapons, and tools. In reality, you’d need to have a lot of experience in a lot of different specialized categories and a MASSIVE workshop to house everything you need. Note the intro, where Henry’s dad gets a special hilt delivered to him for a sword. He didn’t make it himself, it came from a metallurgist whose sole occupation was creating ornate metalworks. Even a pro blacksmith cant just complete a sword by himself.

    800 hours on KCD. After 4 full runs of that I heavily modded Skyrim and plunked 1500 onto that. Not a fiar comparison though as that was over many many different characters with many different builds. It's hard to compare the two as they're radically different games. Modded up to modern standards, Skyrim is still a fantastic experience. But for pure immersion, nothing but nothing touches KCD, my favorite RPG of all time. Oh.... and blacksmithing is coming in KCD2.

  • @karebushmarebu233
    @karebushmarebu233 Месяц назад

    Just a small fact check. You said the game is set within the Roman Empire, this is incorrect. The game is set within the boundaries of the “holy Roman Empire”, which is a different thing. After the ancient Rome we think off split into two, we had the western and eastern Roman Empire. The western Roman Empire fell about a thousand years prior to this game, the eastern Roman Empire (anachronistically known as the Byzantine empire) was still around at the time of the game. The important thing to note is the Byzantine empire was not known as that at the time, it was seen (and factually was) the Roman Empire, people think of the Ancient Rome falling when it split into two, but factually the byzantines were literally the Roman Empire culturally historically and they continued until they were conquered by the ottomans. This game is set in the “holy Roman Empire” which is neither the western or eastern Roman Empire, it’s a separate thing that was founded in the 800’s, it was meant to be “seen” as a continuation of the Roman empire but in reality it wasn’t, and not even contemporary’s saw it that was since the real Roman empire was still kicking at the time. The HRE was primarily Germanic which makes sense considering we see the Holy Roman Empire change its name to the Holy Roman Empire of Germany In 1512. Second little fact, people often call Henry a peasant when talking about this game. That’s categorically and factually untrue, since a peasant wasn’t just a “poor” person, it was a specfic role in society. Basically the majority of people on medieval Europe were peasants, these are people at the bottom of the feudal system that were tied to the land (they couldn’t leave) and had to do the bidding of their feudal lord, they were effectively owned by their feudal lord. While not chattel slavery in the American sense serfdom can definitely be seen as a form of slavery. Now Henry is brought up the son of a blacksmith, this means he’s brought up in a family with a trade. This means he is a freeman, not tied to the land and actually part of Europe’s small but incredibly important merchant/middle/trade class. Even at the start of the game he is incredibly well off in comparison to the mass majority of medieval Europe. This is what enables him to have dreams of travelling in the first place, he would have been unable to do this if he were a peasant. Only including the peasant stuff cause people often make that mistake and even the promo for the second game talks about his origin in the peasantry, which is just wrong Anyways love the video :)

    I only had two problems with Outward: combat and walking. You love or you hate the game's combat, I hate it. And I got skills, I used magic, but it simply not my style of combat. Than there's walking... you walking so fucking much. Half of the game you spend just walking from point a to point b.
