Hi BG3 community! Currently downloading the game now that I have a computer capable of running it.
I’m at 18gb/119gb and I expect about an hour more of downloading, so I was wondering if anyone had any recommended guides for a new player? Videos, infographics, etc? I like playing as either archers or magic users, if that helps.
Go in blind. Its a great game. You’re very likely going to want to try multiple different builds. I wouldn’t be concerned about getting it “right” the first time, because you won’t.
Save often and run into encounters with reckless abandon.
but be willing to fail sometimes, too :)
I’m going to slightly go against this by saying there are some important buttons to know that will make your exploration of the game better / easier
The two biggest are (for PC):
Shift - shows you the line of sight of npcs in a red cone, making it far easier to try and sneak around (especially important for Rogues)
Left alt - Highlights important interact-able objects on screen
Good callouts for sure!
