Eurogamer published this video item, entitled “Baldur’s Gate 3 for dummies: Basics for EVERYTHING You Need to Know (But Were Afraid to Ask)” – below is their description.
Baldur’s Gate 3 has been out for a little while now, and I – along with a lot of other people – have been enjoying it quite a lot. We’ve published a bunch of #BaldursGate3 tips and tricks videos, covering everything from combat and quests to multiclassing and making the most of your characters. But here’s the thing – Balder’s Gate 3 is SO faithful to the Dungeons & Dragons 5e ruleset on which it’s based that if you’re coming into the series completely new, you may struggle, even with tips. Just like a while back when we published an Elden Ring for dummies series, now we’re doing the same for Baldur’s Gate 3, explaining in the very simplest terms the most basic mechanics of the game for people who feel a little lost but still really want to give this incredible experience a fair shot. #eurogamer #dungeonsanddragons #dnd
