i dont think its a good PR if this game get banned in some region because of this, more like something they will regret latter
Baldur’s Gate 3 Launches To Massive Concurrent Steam Players Numbers
- Thread starter Unchained
- Start date
I got the pre-made Gale character and I didn't even think of looking under his robe. Is he packing
You need time off to play thisI want to play it so bad but I'll only be able to start it on the second week of September.
I know this will consume my time so I need to time it right.
There is specific UI for controller... works pretty well... modern games have no more issues with UI designed for KB/M because they already are build to work on controller too.playing crpg with controller
I guess most PC players uses Controller instead KB/M today.
I hope this will challenge for a mil concurrent. No mtx in an AAA game, no performance killing DRM, single player with free coop and couch coop, no battlepasses or any cosmetics or paid unlocks... deserves all the success in the world. Oh. On top of being an excellent game
It's still too early, but doing the quick reviews x 25 estimation method, it already sold 2M+ units on Steam.
It had a full price early access for 3 years where they made tons of money already. Is that really better than some extra DLC on release?
Yes, because early access for money is fine? It's not like they made people re-buy it...you literally got a chance to play dev buildsIt had a full price early access for 3 years where they made tons of money already. Is that really better than some extra DLC on release?
PC gamers are so easily impressed by small numbers
The games aren't selling there much. So, this is like celebration for them.
3+M on console and people calling it bombed
I'm very happy for their big success selling millions of copies, way more than the previous entries, and being critically acclaimed both for the users and the gaming media.
I have some friends who worked on it, including the head of their local dev studio. I feel so proud of them. Let's hope the console versions also end being that successful

It's a Larian game, not a Sony game.
Larian, as both the publisher and developer, decides where and when they release their games. Not Sony.
They have a history of being a PC focused publisher, in fact as I remember 10 years ago they only had 1 of their games in console and was a Xbox console exclusive. Since then the rest of their most recent games were full multi. So their priority I assume is PC, not a console.
And well, Sony has several other way better selling (on console at least) RPGs console exclusives as could be the recent FFXVI, the upcoming FFVII Rebirth or the Sony published ones, to name a few of them. Then Sony also has many RPGs that aren't exclusives but aren't released in either Switch or Xbox, and many other multiplatform RPGs.
Sony has the RPG genre more than well covered: they have the console with the biggest amount of RPGs including most of the top ones. So to sign another RPG exclusive like like this one, which pretty likely won't sell many millions in console, maybe isn't a priority for them because they already have this genre very well served and they maybe have prefered to focus on improving their presence in other top genres where they aren't that big.

Now it just needs to take GOTY instead of Zelda and we'll have a legend on our hands.I'm very happy for their big success selling millions of copies, way more than the previous entries, and being critically acclaimed both for the users and the gaming media.

I do so hope that no big company will try to buy them. We already saw how BioWare ended up.
I hope they change the controller control a little bit.I'm very happy for their big success selling millions of copies, way more than the previous entries, and being critically acclaimed both for the users and the gaming media.
