Baldur’s Gate. I’ve never played DnD so there was a bit of a learning curve. I rage quit after two hours, almost returned it. Three days later I fired it up again and haven’t really stopped playing since.

Baldur’s Gate was a special game. It’s the only game my wife liked to play, and we couch-coopted it. We played the rest in the series together, full play through all of them, a couple of times. Never found that magic combo again, sadly, and to this day she laments that there are so few 3d isometric couch coop games.

Well, there’s Baldur’s Gate 3 now… should keep you entertained for the next 5 years 😃

I’m excited to try that. No couch co-op :-( Nobody makes those anymore.

It’s a phenomenal game, probably the best I’ve played since Red Dead 2

If you liked the first two, have you tried Planescape Torment? Basically the same engine

I didn’t know about that one - it looks great! no couch co-op, sadly, so my wife won’t be interested, but I think it looks great!

Thanks for the recommendation.

And now I’m 158 hours in and can’t bear the thought of finishing it now that combat has become sooooo monotonous.

I’ve been playing bg1 on Android lately, anything you would go back and tell yourself if you could? I’ve basically been flying blind and struggling a bit lol
