Baldur's Gate 3 Sets New Bar for RPGs, Makes Other Games Feel Lackluster in Comparison

Baldur's Gate 3 players say the game has "ruined gaming" for them as nothing else compares. Many can't enjoy other games now.

The game's expansive world and freedom makes going back to more formulaic games feel boring afterward.

Some players are turning to actual D&D books and campaigns to fill the void left by BG3.

The game has set a new standard that other companies will be compared to whether they like it or not.

It remains to be seen what impact BG3 will have on the industry and gaming community going forward.
