There really is no other way to say it: Baldur's Gate 3 is a massive game. Calling it a traditional RPG feels underwhelming, because, in reality, it's a harrowing, granular adventure painstakingly created by the Larian Studios team, all within the 5E D&D system. The game allows you can build your character, devise your party, and tackle various quests and moral questions however you see fit. There's a lot to cover and even more to keep track of while playing this enormous game. This guide is a way to follow the many topics we cover for Baldur's Gate 3, discussing the puzzles, how the classes work, intricate mechanics, and a variety of beginner tips to get your start. Baldur's Gate 3: A Complete Guide Image Via Larian Studios Baldur's Gate 3 is a top-down RPG using the mechanics of the 5E D&D. For those familiar with 5E D&D, some of the mechanics and intricate details of the game have been changed to better fit a wider audience. Many fans have been over the moon about these, such as making Monk's Four Elements subclass being much better about its Ki Point management or the Ranger class gaining more usefulness with its subclasses. The size of Baldur's Gate 3 is huge. You can unlock dozens of story quests, side stories, and little things throughout your time playing this game. There are multiple ways you can approach these tasks, and how you do it is entirely up to you. The replayability is enormous, and I recommend exploring every route you can find. All Baldur's Gate 3 Mechanics Screenshot By Gamepur There are multiple unique mechanics you need to keep track of while playing Baldur's Gate 3. You need to know how short and long rests work, what armor your characters can, what weapons they can use, how to keep track of skill checks, how to consider who should be talking to specific characters, keeping track of actions, bonus actions, and spells. For those who have played 5E D&D before, much of this is familiar. However, no DM is running Baldur's Gate 3 to tell you what you can and cannot do, and it's easy to get messed up. These are some of the more basic mechanics you might encounter while playing Baldur's Gate 3. Can You Change Your Race in Baldur’s Gate 3?

Baldur’s Gate 3: How To Solve Sarin Skeleton & How It Works Baldur's Gate 3 Beginner Tips Screenshot by Gamepur You should know a handful of things before diving into Baldur's Gate 3. These are minor details that the games tell you, but they're easy to forget, and you might lose track of them as you progress further into the game. Save as often as possible. I cannot stress this part enough. You always want to be saving, whenever possible. For those playing on PC, clicking the F5 button will automatically save your game, creating a quick save file, and you load that back in any time, even if it's a few seconds away from making a critical decision. I've saved over 50 times so far in my game, and I have never regretted doing it once. Always save, and do it frequently. Check your character's equipment, loadout, and don't be afraid to change classes. You might start your game with a particular class, but for a small fee, you can swap your class at any time during your playthrough. Don't be afraid to want to try something else, or remain flexible with your party to ensure you have everything covered, especially if you're struggling with particular encounters. Stealth is your best friend. If you think you're about to get into a fight, stealth is the key to everything. Breaking up party members so they can hide in a corner, away from enemy eyesight, is a great way to get a surprise round against foes, and you can do a massive amount of damage to an enemy in the first round before they can react to you. Do this tactic often, especially if you're struggling to fight against a formidable foe. Sell everything, and save your money. Avoid stealing. One thing I've noticed that carries over into Baldur's Gate 3 from Divinity: Original Sin 2 is that when you steal from someone, they typically learn about it relatively quickly and go straight to you. I find this tactic rather tiresome from Larian Studios, but they probably do it to prevent characters with perfect stealth from stealing everything off a trader. I find selling all my junk items far more valuable and saving up for what I need, leaving stealing and pickpocketing as a final option.
