    It has been a while since i have played bjt it is closer in mechanics to start. It uses a real time time with pause system and parties of 6, so a lot of thr combat dynamics and tactics are similar as are the controls. As for the difficulty, it can be difficult but there are 6 difficulty settings so dont feel obligated to play in a hardcore difficulty. The character building can get pretty complex but that is a perk for me, and it does a very good job giving you all the information, altho it can be overwhelming at times, it is actually there so you can plan accordingly ( one of my big issues with bg3 is the lack of info in tooltips etc). Also, there is an ingame respec option so you arent locked in.

      Thank you for the run through. I’ll keep it in mind and maybe give them a shot at some point.

      I also agree about the tooltips in BG3. Some are even plain wrong. I have a ring that says the wearer gets Blessed when healing another, but it’s actually the target that is healed that also gets Blessed, which is way better. There is lots of little stuff like that
