It\u2019s no secret that Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has been a raving success in the gaming world, with many calling it the RPG of the decade. Larian\u2019s star title has kept its star status months after its release, with fans adoring their playthroughs and often discovering brand new easter eggs, storylines, and exciting quests to complete. Quests are a key element for any RPG, and as players are explaining, those quests are one of the highlights of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3. In fact, the fans love them so much, that they\u2019re now claiming that it\u2019s \u201cruined quests\u201d for their Starfield playthroughs and any upcoming RPGs. Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 players love the quests so much it\u2019s ruined them for Starfield Sharing their thoughts onto Reddit, one Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 player explained how they \u201cJust want to appreciate how there are no fetch or meaningless quests in this game. Any other studios would have padded in filler quests just to artificially inflate play time,\u201d then giving examples of collection, kill, or fetch quests many would be familiar with. \u201cIt\u2019s not hard to imagine quests like that\u201d explained the player, going on to say how \u201cwe\u2019ve been conditioned to accepting it as the norm. Even recent AAA games do have those quests in one form or another.\u201d However, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 proves to be an exception, with the poster detailing that \u201cthis game doesn\u2019t have any of that. Each quest is unique and added something to the overall experience. I\u2019m gonna scream inside the next time I see a fetch quest in another game. This game has ruined quests for me, for the better.\u201d It seems the poster is not the only one who believes that Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has ruined quests for them, with hundreds taking to the comments to share their agreement. One user commented: \u201cOhmygod that\u2019s so true! I didn\u2019t even realize how out of the loop we were with the \u201cnorm\u201d side quests. Every single quest feels so organic which you can do accidentally if you just simply explore the damn game and you can miss a lot if you don\u2019t listen to dialogue or just not look up a guide. It feels so natural that it completely went over my head. Wow!!\u201d Another compared the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 experience with Bethesda\u2019s Starfield, explaining how \u201cit ruined Starfield\u2019s quests.\u201d They went on to explain how \u201cBG3 doesn\u2019t tell you what to do and provides options.\u201d whereas, \u201cStarfield tells you exactly what to do and where to go, and it gives you 0 options.\u201d It\u2019s important to note, that the style of RPG players love is an entirely personal aspect, with many adoring Starfield for its own elements. It\u2019s not just Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 that\u2019s impressing players though, as one user made sure to explain: \u201cI guess you\u2019ve never played a Larain Studio game before, this is their standard\u2026 It\u2019s so amazing to see them finally rewarded with unheard-of sales for fine-tuning their craft to near perfection and at this scale.\u201d It seems that thanks to Larian\u2019s fine-tuning, the unbridled love among the community, and its unforgettable quests, Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 may just be a title for the ages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 has \u201cruined quests\u201d for Starfield players Larian StudiosThe success of Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 seems to be sullying the love for other RPGs, with many BG3 players highlighting how the game has \u201cruined quests\u201d for their Starfield playthroughs as well as their future RPG playthroughs.
