This Baldur’s Gate 3 mod turns the game into a chaotic roguelike, which is great if you just want to slay some monsters like you’re in an old school D&D campaign

New games 2023 — a dagger-wielding adventurer faces off against a minotaur in Baldur

I’ve finished Baldur’s Gate 3 two times, nearly three. There was my initial playthrough, my first Honour Mode victory, and an evil playthrough on the same difficulty where I got to Act 3 and sort of tapered off. Not for any particular reason, mind, other than the fact that if you spend over 280+ hours with an RPG you’re going to get bored at some point.

Part of the “problem”, one that’s really no one’s fault, was Baldur’s Gate 3’s story. For all of its excellent writing, all of its twists and turns, and all of its unexpected dialogue, well, same deal—you can only read the same book so many times. Which would mean that any playthrough I wanted to do for the purposes of mucking around with its faithful rendition of D&D 5e combat would involve a lot of jogging and cutscene skipping.
