Theyre different games. Its like comparing Persona 5 to Dark Souls, only because they both are rpgs. Ridiculous. Both are amazing in their own way. There is nothing to compare.
There are tons of stuff you miss out if you go the 'good' route too. In fact, you'll be missing out on stuff no matter what you do, there is no "right way" to play the game even if your own personal playthrough felt like "the right way". That's why the game is so praised.The major problem I had with BG3 is that it incentivizes you to play "the right way," ie as a hero. If you try to play any other way, you're just locking yourself out of quests and good loot. This isn't the case with W3, with how morally grey most quests are written, it makes the impact of player choices and narrative that much stronger as a result.
Significantly less by comparison. There was a very looooonng post on reddit that had everything you miss out on when you don't go "good guy route," general consensus was it was the largest flaw in the game. It was even pointed out that there's a way to cheese it some of the bad rewards, for example you can still recruitThere are tons of stuff you miss out if you go the 'good' route too.

Minthara without having to kill the camp lol.
Baldur's Gate 3 is easily the game of the generation and one of the best games of all time.
It's a pretty easy choice.
Its the CRPG tax.I'm very surprised that The Witcher 3 is winning the vote, very surprised indeed.
I own it on PS5 and PC. It controls better on PC (imo), but the console controls are pretty good.Funny because Witcher 3 is also considered the game of the generation for the previous gen and one of the greatest ever by many people.
I do think W3, BB, and GoW2018 were the 3 best games last gen. BG3 sounds equally amazing though as a crpg, but it's a genre I always struggle with on console due to controls and menus being a slog for me to navigate. I also suck at the combat in these games.
Anyone able to successfully enjoy BG3 (or any crpg) on console? Because I own BG3 for ps5 but everything takes me SO LONG to do! Only way I could see myself getting to a point where I can move through this at a decent pace would he if I stopped playing other games and focused only on playing BG3. That's not my style though as there's always other games in rotation so I never get proficient at crpg's!
Elden ring?
The only possible answer.Witcher 3 by a country mile. The music, the characters, the atmosphere, the lore... BG3 feels like a slapdash cartoon. There is nothing holding that world together. There is no charm or soul. The Witcher 3 is the greatest game ever and I don't even really like the gameplay. That is how much more of a sum of its parts it is. It is a triumph.
