    Coming fresh off BG3, the quality of the writing and the amount of character expression in dialog is like night and day. Honestly there was even one moment fairly early on when I said to myself “Fallout 4 would have let me extort this guy” and then I realized how egregious it was that I felt I had less agency in this quest than in FO4.

        Do it if you want some shooty-shooty gameplay, but don’t expect the writing to be as good.

          As good as what? Larian’s try hard attempt to be “dark” and fumbling to capture the style of the previous BG games.

              Maybe, but I will never fumble so hard as to consider Larian tier writing as anything but average.

                Lots of people who play games are so used to terrible writing and storytelling that Larian’s mediocre pulp fantasy plot with tired cliches of characters must be a gift from the heavens themselves.

                  Love how it’s so chic to shit on Bethesda’s writing as if people have standards then they go on and praise Larian’s cringe fest.
