I have been looking forward to Larian’s long-awaited sequel to the legendary D&D CRPG series since it was announced, and even more so over its lengthy period of early access. But the final game itself came out at the perfect time in what has not been the best of years in my personal life, and the chance to be swept away by its world and characters was deeply appreciated. Over the past few months since its launch in the summer, I’ve wandered the Sword Coast righting wrongs, romancing beary druids, and eldritch blasting anything and everything into very deep chasms across hundreds of hours and multiple playthroughs, and I am still finding ways for Baldur’s Gate 3 to surprise me. – James Whitbrook
