Excited that BG3 has early access on Stadia as well. Very curious about this game but I think I'm going to hold off. Too many games to play and not enough time. Oct/Nov will be a really good month for gamers :slightly_smiling_face:

Baldur's Gate 3 looks amazing, but as someone who hasn't played the others, would this be a good place to start? Honestly though it's a great time to be a Stadia fan.

If this ad had come out a year ago, it would have helped Stadia blow up. At least there's a clear explanation for non Stadians.

Two hours into Baldurs Gate 3. Bugs on first creation screen. Honestly I bought a stadia just for this game. Already have Xbox and PS4.

Grapics out of cut scenes reminiscent of ps3/xbox360. Gameplay really clunky. I know it’s early access but light years away from 1.0

Divinty series crushes this so far

@Magmaboy1 no worries about that, the developer (Larian) mentioned already that even when you haven't Baldurs Gate 1 and 2, you can directly start with BG3. The story is set in Forgotten Realms and plays 100 years after BG2, so there will not many many references to the old games, but the devs mentioned that fans will note some "jokes" or eastereggs, etc. when they have played before.

Therefore if you like roleplaying games, I think this game might be something for you and I would recommend to give it a try.

Good to see Baldurs gate in early access on stadia only.  But full price for an early access, ya know a bug filled game that we need to help them make since instead of hiring a QA team they can instead charge us!  Needless to say I personally suggest no one buy into that garbage fire and wait for release.  Anyone who likes this sort of release I suggest you also check out fallout 76 as you'd enjoy that too.

Seems like a missed trick here. I'm not willing to pay full price for an unfinished game but it would have been an awesome Pro exclusive. Honestly Pro subscription needs a boost.

I am having a ton of fun playing Baldur's Gate III on Stadia right now.  The game looks phenomenal as well.

Every time I buy a game on Stadia I am amazed all over again at how I'm playing the game within a minute of purchase.  Literally zero downloads and updates.  This is a feature that's hard to appreciate until you experience it for yourself.  Once you do...you'll never want to go back.

Congratulations to everyone at Larian Studios!

Besides all this good job to the stadia team for allowing lte to run on google stadia app on mobile. One step to the right direction.

Am still amazed at how I'm able to play these top games through streaming. Can't go back now to downloads and updates. Just waiting for the crowd to increase when more countries join in, then we can have more fun. Crowd choice is amazing!

Me this month:

Stadia Pro -> Unsubscribe.

Gamepass Ultimate-> Subscribe

Why?

Stadia - getting rubbish or old or mobile port games every month. All right - sometimes we get a nice one but not too toften. Was hoping for good RPG and when it comes out they say £50.

Gamepass - hundreds of games, old and new releases, small and big ones. All included. XCloud coming to PC soon so no regrets.

Thank you.

I played BG 1&2 with my children. I was looking forward to this.

The graphics were great. I love the cinematic style and editing of the game. The sounds, voices and background sound is great too. 

Now for my list of first night game challenges. 

First, please tell me that in the full game there will a southpaw setting for the controller.  Right now, I am having to try to turn the controller upside down to play. 

Second , the scene where you have to make the first jump, I had to walk a away two times before the option to jump finally worked. 

Third, both me and my husband got disconnected from game play 3 times in the span of 90 minutes. That is all the time we spent on the game on launch night.

I had never cared for the Final Fantasy turn based game play. I will have to learn to like that game style now.

Il gioco non è ottimizzato per usare un controller...siete dei dementi...finalmente un gioco decente mettete e ve ne sbattete il cazzo che sia almeno in minima parte fruibile...

Updated opinion after playing when not really tired. Graphics spot on. Character interaction superb.loads more than any RPG before it in my opinion. Think larian have exceeded what I expected by a mile.

I think BG3 has had one of biggest impact in Stadia's showcase... The fact that Steam had problems with downloading and so, makes Stadia looked very convenient to the gaming community. Even YT streamers that had never published any Stadia related video live streamed BG3 on the platform. Keep up the good work guys
