[PC] Baldur's Gate 3 or Cyberpunk 2077

So far I'm planning to buy Skyrim, Terraria and Persona 5 Royal. I want to get cyberpunk since it seems good and my friend has recommended it to me. Thanks to the steam deal it's only £22 and with dlc it's £40. On the other hand, Baldur's Gate is £40, and it seems that everyone loves it. Some people will probably say buy both, but my friend will most likely ask me to get a bunch of games that we can play together, which would stop me from being able to get both games.

Not hard to see the game for how bad it is when you're not simping over Keanu Reeves and CDPR

It's an objectively amazing game. It has some of the best combat in any action RPG. It's fast-paced, skill based, and very fluid.

I'm sorry you're a hater.

Have we actually played the same game?

Some of the best combat in any action RPG? The AI can't detect you beyond around 25 meters. They don't take cover, they just scatter. If you're on a roof or up high, they don't move back to be able to see you, they move closer so it's even harder for them to hit you. In a world full of cybernetics that include high jump, double jump, they don't utilise them.

Fast paced? The fuck are you, a tortoise? You get one or two enemies that 'rush' you and the rest just sit back for easy pickings. There's nothing fast about it.

Skill based? Do you mean it has a skill tree? Because none of this game requires any skill. Even weak points on enemy bosses are fucking highlighted and completely obvious. You can't even take actual cover and shoot over/around cover. All you have to do is just strafe and shoot. Bosses basically just do more damage and have more health. There's nothing really super unique about them or difficult except maybe the odd hard to avoid aoe splash damage attacks they do, which is boring.

Fluid? Okay, I can give you this one. If you want the combat to be fluid it can be and all the missions on the map are viewable from the off set so you can easily just go zone by zone rather than running back and forth.

I didn't play on the hardest difficulty but I did play on the second hardest. So unless the hardest difficulty changes EVERYTHING then I'm assuming it's extremely similar.

Am I a hater? Yes absolutely but for extremely good and obvious reasons, the game just doesn't even hold a candle to any similar games from the last 20 years. There are indie games that are more complex and thought out.

Lmao. You haven't played the game. Half of the things you said are just blatantly untrue.

Mate I completed every mission and side mission except collecting the cars.
