How long did it take you to beat it? I know I am playing it quite slow, but reading all those comments about act 2+3 scares me a bit. I am after 40h just wrapping up the Underdark.

I am at 110h and I've just dealt with Act II. The game is huge.

And Act II is fine.

I check every pot, and I collect like wines and food the game doesn't highlight when you press Alt. I went pretty much everywhere I saw. I like to think I'm pretty thorough.

If you're the same, you'll have the same time. If you're not, you're going to have a lot less. :)

Larian: Due to a build error causing new crashes, we’ve rolled back Hotfix 4 for the time being. We'll re-release it as soon as we’ve fixed the cause.

If you’ve saved since updating, you won’t be able to load those saves until we’ve re-published Hotfix 4. Sorry about the inconvenience.


Reply from Larian: To clarify, we’ve rolled back to hotfix 3, so you can keep playing! You just won't be able to load saves from today’s hotfix 4 until it’s pushed live again. Apologies. 🙏

Humbaba ****** off from codex to cry about his **** game here instead lmao.

Notice how not even in this forum nobody except you talks about trannyfinder. Just face it bro it's a **** game and always have been. BG3 at least has enjoyable combat that don't want to make you ************* from bloated boredom. ******* ******.

Did a near completionist near blind playthrough. Explored each map fully.

My final save says around 30h...over the course of a bit over a week.

I think it's closer to 35 because reloaded half an hour back a few times but about right.

Edit. I looked up two or three things, all those being puzzles. The mirror of loss. The paintings for the mausoleum. Another other as well but don't remember what it was.

I missed apparently the iron throne quest and the steel watch foundry quest (Gortash went down during the coronation...so...) and the wrymway quest. Edit. Couldn't get the torches lit.

Mirror of loss never worked. Never found access to wrymway.

Halsin glitched when rescuing him from Orin...he wouldn't talk...so ended up with a fifth companion all through the third act.

Orthic Hammer from house of hope and the respective happy ending with everybody fine except The Emperor. Who was knocked out.

Unlike the early access I nearly skipped magic this playthrough. That's probably it. Much slower and more reloading for people when they rely on spells. I guess. Didn't change classes for companions until mid third act because was worried it might block some content. It doesn't.

DnD5e seems to hate spellcasters if implemented literally. After seven levels saving throws nearly guaranteed for everybody.

Conclusions. Jumping distance is the most powerful skill.

Edit. The concussion items that get thrown at the party during the Gortash coronation fight are super useful. They basically lasted through the third act.

Act 1: 8/10, Act 2: 7/10, Act 3: 9/10.

Was surprised that the upper city is only for the boss fight. Cannot be freely explored.
