For a single player game, Baldur’s Gate 3 is highly replayable. Most of us have already completed multiple playthroughs as Tav, the origin companions, Dark Urge, or by simply picking a different path. As surprising as it may sound, despite BG3 still raking in a huge player count after over two years, there are still some who haven’t yet experienced the game.
Playing Baldur’s Gate 3 for the first time is something we all wish we could experience again. But what advice would we give to someone who has just started the game? There are a lot of features that could be complicated for a newbie, but it seems the most common piece of advice being doled out to new players is to use the long rest often.
Make Sure You Use The Long Rest Feature Often In Baldur’s Gate 3
While most of the narrative takes place on the road, a lot of story and companion narratives take place at camp. Forming a stronger bond with your companions and even romancing them are all part of the game, and most of this will only occur during long rests at camp. While new players might think that they can save time by recuperating on the road, they’ll miss a lot of story beats.
Over on the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit, manofthewick revealed that they received a physical copy of the game for Christmas. They hadn’t gotten around to playing it yet, and couldn’t help but post about the awesome gift on Reddit. The comments were all very wholesome, with the top voted one saying, “Enjoy the game, Long rest often, stay off this subreddit for obvious reasons.”
Divinity Isn’t Just Going To Fill Baldur’s Gate 3’s Shoes, It’s Going To Outgrow Them
Larian Studios has announced the game that will follow in the footsteps of Baldur’s Gate 3.
Everyone agreed that it was great advice for a new player. One player mentioned that they didn’t long rest enough for fear of losing out on content, but later realised that long rests actually open up more content and opportunities.
Some of the other advice that they received included holding onto all the rope they could find, saving frequently, and licking the spider.
