‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ can be a fantastic experience and a bad game at the same time.

    Same for me. I’m aware of two ways to get a game over in the first act, but both are very telegraphed, repeatedly. Each one has at least one NPC outright telling you not to do this, because if you continue with the thing you are doing, you WILL die.

    Of course, I save scummed just to see. First, because I had this idea like, "I know it’s supposed to be a catastrophe that could theoretically crater the entire coast, but…what if I trigger it really far down underground and then run really fast? (It did not work.)

    The second was me deliberately egging on a self-styled god and then doubling down on it sincerely because I wanted to see what their in-game stats looked like, or at least how fast they could squash me and in what exciting fashion. Friends, I did not even get to enter initiative.

    But a person has to really be pushing back the lower limits of the bell curve to make me believe they couldn’t have foreseen a single one of these.
