Baldur's Gate 3 is truly one of the great story driven RPG's out there. Coming from the perspective of a person who played Divinity Original Sin 2, I can confidently say that this game captures the essence of what is a Larian studio title.

The sidequests, exploring the world, interacting with your companions really stood out. For instance, finding a small cave in the middle of nowhere can unlock interactions for the rest of the game. The amount of detail is just amazing and continues thoughout the entire game.

I do have to say that the camera can sometimes be a little tough to work with, and why a random ass 12hp big-eyed pink frog oneshotted my party, well that will remain a mystery that might never be solved, or can it?

In short, Baldur's Gate 3 is an incredible adventure with a lot to offer. If you are looking for story rich RPGs or want to experience more, I also recommend Divinity: Original Sin 2 a title also made by Larian studios. These games for me are like the prime examples of how RPGs should interact and immerse the player in their world.

Edit: The mods you can download for this game really enhances replayability, from importing new classes and subclasses to overhauling mechanics and boss fights. I recommend checking the mods out on Nexusmods, do keep in mind some mods will change the base game data (only a few afaik) so keep an eye out for that and create backups.
