Why are there points of no return? in c/baldurs_gate_3@lemmy.world
[โ€“] Alendi@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (10 children)

Yes, I found it confusing that sometimes there is a warning which has no consequences, then in anothere you get locked from all previous maps. Also with time-sensitive missions, you can fail a few quests and it is not always specified that there will be consequences if you take too long in your exploration (in a game that is all about exploration)

Why are there points of no return? (lemmy.world)
 

The points at which the game transition between acts seem a bit arbitrary (mainly for Act I to Act II), and I don't see a narrative or mechanical reason to lock us out of previous maps and quests. As far as I remember, previous Baldur's Gate games didn't have this kind of points of no return. Why do you think they did it? Do you like it?

About Book-clubs (lemmy.world)
 

I used to enjoy participating in book clubs (be it in person or online), but between emigrating, the pandemic and life changes I haven't been in one in quite a while. What about you? Do you enjoy reading groups? If so, in person or digital?

The problem with these games (like Stellaris, which is also on offer and I would recommend with the same warning) is that the base game lacks many interesting features, which you only get if you buy all the DLCs.

Fiction works on anarchist societies? (lemmy.world)
 

I saw another post here with very good recommendations on anarchist readings, but it was mostly non-fiction. Do you know about works of fiction (games, films, books...) that speculate how a fully-fledged anarchist society could be like (as in Ursula K Le Guin 'The Dispossessed')?
