Baldur's Gate 3 Devs Break Down Every Class

We sat down with Swen Vincke (Game Director), Adam Smith (Lead Writer), and Nick Pechenin (Lead Systems Designer) to break down every single class in Baldur's Gate 3 including the brand-new Monk class.

Baldur's Gate 3 is a massive RPG based on the the Dungeons and Dragons TTRPG. The game is being developed by Larian Studios and has been in early access for the last few years. It comes to PC on August 3, 2023 and PlayStation 5 on September 6, 2023.

with enough hafling barbarians you could also stack on top of each other and become one actual barbarian

You can tell how much these guys love their job. This is why they make such good games.

[KaIero]

ONE OF THE BEST TEAMS. You can feel that they LOVE their own game

Ohhh, it’s nice of the DM to explain the classes to the players before starting the new campaign

Larian is the next BioWare, now that BioWare is a husk of its former self. Let’s hope they stay independent. Can’t wait to see what other masterpieces they make in the future!

I love how they say that it's dangerous standing near Sven when he's playing a wizard because he's very chaotic with his spells and then Sven comes and says he likes the wild mage the most because of all the chaos xD

This is actually the first game I paid the new "standard" pc game price of 70 bucks for and did not feel robbed or cheated in any way. Cannot wait.

my favorite team of developers, keep doing what you're doing Larian Studios I love you

[llamachai]

I love when Adam talked abt how being a goth growing up led him to play Rogue when he first played tabletops, or how his sister always plays a wildshaping Druid because she loves nature - the stories really show how personal this game is to Larian staff and why we feel such love and dedication for the game.

For those that haven't played Baldur's gate before. This one will be different from the others. It uses the rules of 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons with some tweaks. They have done a great job so far

When DOS2 dropped, it was such a game changer for me. I tried playing games like pillar of eternity or pathfinder but couldn't that high. Cant wait for BG3 or DOS3 in 10 years

This video just made me want to play all the classes. I was going to pick bard, but now, I feel like i could go with any of them.

"Always keep your wizards in front of you and in your line of site" - truer words have rarely been said.

[Josh_Alfaro]

I love the general vibe and joking around these guys do, so much passion in their craft. We love you Larian, never change

[chastermief]

as a 5e player, this interview really invites me to experience the fantasy of baldur's gate 3. for instance at 1:51 i briefly imagined a world where i choose a spell from magical secrets that isn't counterspell.

[gunward]

The way the lead developers talk about Swen is way beyond how the people at e.g. Bethesda talk about Todd Howard. It shows a passion and companionship that every studio should have.

I bought the game 2 weeks ago to get ready for the full release. I'm trying a Bard, as i wanted a character using sword, cast a few spells and with high social skills for influencing conversations.
I played a Paladin in the original BG games, and i wanted to try a class i never played yet.
I'm enjoyng my time so far and i think i will stick with a Bard with the full game.

[curlykeys]

These guys seem so genuine and have an apparent love for their craft. I’ve been playing bg3 non stop. As someone who has never played D&D and knew literally nothing about it before coming into this game, they’ve done a great job at making this an accessible and epic experience for everyone <3
