@@suburbanindie ubisoft loves the money.ea games loves the money.LARIAN make good games and actually gets the money...hmm isnt this how it actually should be in the world of gaming??? Or is it just me?
The whole marketing team of bg3 does such an insane job. Even though a lot of the stuff is niche it is just insane how everything fits together. Either the Druid sx scene as promotion,the rememberable music track through the whole game, the dnd round they streamed with the voice actors… actually how they involve the voice actors and portrait them as the characters (esp. astarion). It’s just insane how well they made this all up. And all without a seasonal microtransaction shop (look at you Diablo 4). Larian is just like the old blizzard north or BioWare. And finally people that dev a game that love playing games.

@@truditoru619 the fact that you can somewhat "recreate" the LOTR plot in itself is amazing, I know that this is for promotion but this small interaction was sweet :')
It also makes it feel more like a d&d session. Even though it is probably scripted in a way, it is a good way to do fan service for bg3 fans, LotR fans AND d&d veterans.
So Frodo finds an immensely powerful object that drags him to the dark side. And Sam has to help frodo destroy the object by throwing it in to lava. Yup, that adds up!

The best thing about BG3 is you have so much flexibility. You can accomplish a quest almost any way you can imagine. To kill the Goblins at the stronghold, you can poison the water, or chain a bunch of exploding barrels together throughout the dungeon, kill them one by one, sneak through without killing them (if you can) and any number of different solutions. You just have to use your imagination, and the game will allow it.
BG3 is my first game from Larian and normally I wouldn't even consider a game of this type, but they've completely shattered that. I had no idea what I was missing.
Larian knows exactly who their audience is and who should be promoting the game. Geoff and many developers should take note. BTW has Asmon even played BG3? Hope he's played a little off stream at least! A whole series of DOS2 and BG3 would be amazing!! (especially with McConnel!)
I always send Astarion to his death there because he's so funny dying. If Astarion can react to my consciousness decision, I think he'll look at me like that too. XD

This was the Christmas present I didnt know I needed.
I cant even say how much I love BG3 - not even in the sense of a fan but just how much joy it gives me and how it touches a core fabric of my being. It gives me hope even if that sounds stupid. Hope for great art, creation done through passion. Imagine what the children will do who grow up with a game like that. Makes me feel nostalgic for the future how stupid that may sound.
this generation is impatient , my nephews find the game boring , too slow Gen z, don't have patience to learn anything that takes more then 2m but sure, as we were a minority in the 90s, so there will be another Gen of good stuff enjoyers
Also reaching Grymforge. So it’s obviously a custom build for the guided demo. But, it’s hard to begrudge them doing that when the outcome is this cool
It's crazy seeing a studio just know what their fanbase wants, instead of doing everything wrong and trying to come back with a "we are listening to you guys"
D&D MUST be turn based. The only reason the original BG and Icewind Dale were not is because it's a LOT harder to program well. That's why they gave you the pause option. D&D is not a set of rules that promotes real-time combat.
The movie and the books aren't turn based. But no, turn based wasn't harder to program, Diablo 1 was originally turn based before they changed it. The games actually operate in turns, the reason they're RTWP is because RTS games were very popular back then. Same reason Diablo isn't turn based. Turn Based was considered dated, and developers wanted to embrace the ability of video games to have real time gameplay.
Asmon as a barbarian with huge 2h weapons and battlecries and McCool as a paladin (paladins can actually be so OP in DnD, especially cool as Oathbreaker) would be such an amazing journey to witness. Imagine the chaos they would unleash... And you can unleash so much Chaos in BG3.
That's a nice suprise! Glad to see these two are still friends, they went through a lot together just by making the trilogy. It is especially cool to see after watching the behind the scenes of LOTR
None of the kids in my family can even tolerate the games I love for exactly that reason. They want to play Spider-Man 2 and I want to play BG3 in Honour mode.
@@alfasilverblade that's very small minority of people. Nowadays with how media is manipulated for maximum clicks and "newest thing" every few hours, the attention span nor patience is there for average person. If you can still maintain it its an incredible skill, however weird that may sounds to us older people(im only 30 so to some still a kid). I personally always preferred run n gun in FPS, minmaxing in mmos and being very efficient with other type of games, i always hated TBS games, felt boring, but now when im a bit older and can understand why it is like that, im honestly not that against TBS anymore, you just have to understand what it is at the core, and Baldur's Gate 3 is phenomenal game all around.

This is my first time seeing gameplay of that game. I've heard about the game, and the awards it won, but never seen advertising for it or anything. Thanks man, looks good.
It's the absolute pinnacle of roleplaying games. You won't regret it if you get it. One note though: It's like twenty times more fun if you play it with friends.
You lucked out! Its the best time to play this game! Lots of the bugs are fleshed out. You can pick it up and play it anytime, but you wont want to stop
Do not buy it full price. I did and unfortunately I deleted it extremely fast. Crappy character creator and pretty miniscule choices in the grand scheme of things. Basically a puddle that looks bigger than it actually is.
It’s so appropriate to have Elijah and Sean on for BG3. Gary Gyax who created the DnD ruleset was inspired by two things, medieval tabletop boards games and the books of Tolkien. Here are the two lead actors of LOTR playing DnD
The main reason Baldurs Gate is so good is because is D&D base game and Larian Studios to be fair . Dungeons & Dragons IP is sooooo good that im shock there isnt much googd games, series or movies about it. If u like fantasy D&D is the way to go.
I wanted to watch this but it started having spoilers so imma hold off lol. I bought BG3 2 weeks ago and it's the most fun I've had with a video game in over 10 years. Im not even a fan of D&D or turn based games, but this game is a masterpiece, it has exceeded my expectations on a level that I can't even describe.
remember to block any youtube videos with bg3 related content so you don't get accidentally spoiled by yt recommendations. Also dont click on bg3 related videos.
My girlfriend is getting me bg3 for Christmas. I'm way excited for it even though I too am not a fan of turn based, although I do like D&D but never am able to play.
I actually got a chance to meet Sean in real life a year ago and me and my friends would quote random lines that Frodo said to Sam and he’d give the exact response it actually wonderful
Is it happening? Is he gonna' do it? I would watch the hell out of those streams just to see asmon bulldoze his way through that world as a warrior main haha.
elijah wood is fantastic. made his money making LOTR. dove into more experimental roles after. didnt turn into some hollywood out of touch weirdo. reviewed the best game since fallout new vegas. both of them are GOATED af.
I love how both of them still played their characters as Sam and Frodo. Someone that was cursed with power and death and the guy that kills spiders and carries the cursed one.
This is exactly why BG3 is so good. The weird shit that you can actually do in the game is on next level. It is wild how complex the plot of the game is where all these trails that are wildly different tie into one central story somehow. And this is the beauty of the game. And these are only the pre-set things in the game... You can do a whole lot of other things with the game mechanics that you basically cannot do in pretty much any other game. Let's see what happens is one of the key points of the game.
They Literally gave us an Alternate Ending to Return of the King. If Gollum didn't interfere, Sam would've pushed Frodo into the Lava.
he'd of gone with him though for sure
@@newhall.d1617that would’ve been really poetic honestly. That would’ve been such a good way to end it as well.

That sideways look Elijah does before the squirrel-kick is priceless. That is a man who is fully aware of what he's doing :D
I wonder if he will calm down a little after he hits puberty?
imagine he wasnt aware of what he was doing, that would be scary
He's a treasure as much as he is a psychopath.
That reminded me of the creepy guy he played in Sin City.
Eh, it's good marketing, but with the dark artefact shtick and the lava push at the end it's gotta be scripted.

Imagine Larian making an LOTR game, just too good to be real.

The PR department is gold !
The side eyes were perfect.
Frodo still has some darkness in him...
Elijah Wood literally is Durge it's amazing
I actually got a chance to meet Sean in real life a year ago and me and my friends would quote random lines that Frodo said to Sam and he’d give the exact response it actually wonderful
Lmao 8:20 frodo not even holding the controller after getting trolled by dev and then robbed by sean
This was freaking amazing, i want a full playthrough of this badly now with both of them lol 😆
Is it happening? Is he gonna' do it? I would watch the hell out of those streams just to see asmon bulldoze his way through that world as a warrior main haha.
14:15 Sean Austin acted in The Goonies.
elijah wood is fantastic. made his money making LOTR. dove into more experimental roles after. didnt turn into some hollywood out of touch weirdo. reviewed the best game since fallout new vegas. both of them are GOATED af.
7:13 "I can't loot that book from you, but I can loot YOU! Come on!" *starts to drag the dead body through the cave*
I loved this video so much with Samwise and Frodo, god i loved the game
well, the ring got to him man, now he's permanently evil...
I love that Elijah is full-on murder hobo. Must be the influence of the one ring and now the evil flesh book.
I love how both of them still played their characters as Sam and Frodo. Someone that was cursed with power and death and the guy that kills spiders and carries the cursed one.
Larian killing it on the marketing once again.
Elijah wood is done saving ppl lmao it was so funny!!!
This is exactly why BG3 is so good. The weird shit that you can actually do in the game is on next level. It is wild how complex the plot of the game is where all these trails that are wildly different tie into one central story somehow. And this is the beauty of the game. And these are only the pre-set things in the game... You can do a whole lot of other things with the game mechanics that you basically cannot do in pretty much any other game. Let's see what happens is one of the key points of the game.
It really isn't though, it is shallow as hell.
The side eye. Uh oh….frodo is still affected by the wound on weathertop. Hehehhehe
