Today’s game is Baldur’s Gate 3. Finally managed to drag my friends together to play some more of this. So that’s awesome. We mostly spent the time we played getting out do the situations we wedged ourselves into last time and then ducking around in camp.

Me and the Barbarian for example got into a fight with some mimics we found. I ended up not being much help because I was crippled from before by a fire trap. Situations like this are why I love this game and D&D to a larger extent. It takes your blunders and mistakes and it lets you roll with them. Accidentally piss off a town? Fight your way out and have to find another way to do the quest. It’s cool. I wish more games had that level of accessibility.

Another part of the game I like? The photomode (ignore Zorvak and Wyll. Zorvak Streaks in camp and someone stole Wyll’s clothes and they were hugging it out earlier). It’s one of my favorites because obeying the confines of the world are more a suggestion. If you budge against a wall and need to go further there’s a slider to move it further in any direction. It’s super handy for getting low down shots and stuff.

We had to end after one of our players fell asleep during a long rest (I guess he decided to take the roleplay part to heart). Hopefully we’ll be able to play more soon. But we’ll have to see. Either way it was a fun session even if all that happened was I got roasted by a flamethrower and fought some mimics.
