Thanks to everyone who voted for Baldur’s Gate 3 in the players voice. You made me cheer and then cry in a very public place. You rock and it means everything.

"This density and writing of quality would be impressive in a linear adventure; to find it in a game world this gorgeous, with this many branching dialogue trees and alternate story moments, is nothing short of awe inspiring."

I fell in love with Baldur's Gate in 1998 and returning decades later to tell new stories has been the honour of a lifetime. Part of my heart will always be there, with the friends and enemies we met, and the ones we created.
But I am so excited for what comes next.

It goes without saying that I might not be making games if BioWare hadn’t been hugely important to me over the decades. I certainly wouldn’t have been part of BG3, for obvious reasons.
Here’s to another twenty years and more of RPGs that make memories for a lifetime.

Seeing this has made me quite emotional just now. It's been a hell of a journey.

Impossible to overstate how much this has nourished our souls throughout Early Access.
With days to go till we unleash Baldur’s Gate 3 upon the world: thank you to our Early Access community. Your fan art, creations & feedback have sustained us throughout development, and we couldn’t have done this without you.
We can’t wait to see what you create next.

One of her most courageous moments. When you have been taught that any vulnerability is a fatal weakness, choosing not to run from what makes you vulnerable is truly heroic.
Gale: I'm glad to know you have a softer side Minthara. I was beginning to think you rather heartless.
Minthara: Loving another is not soft, wizard. It is one of the hardest things a person can do.
Gale: SO YOU ADMIT YOU FOUND LOVE, oh how delightful. I'm happy for you both.

Every moment of happiness this game brings makes my heart burn brighter.
It means the world to me and so does everyone who is a part of it, Larian peeps and players alike.
Thank you from the fiery infernal engine we keep in place of our heart. ❤️🔥 We couldn't have asked for a better response to Baldur's Gate 3.
Patch 3 is coming September 21 with full support for BG3 on Mac.

Every time Geoff speaks to camera, he has magically appeared at a different part of the theatre and I get confused and spend twenty seconds trying to figure out where he is.
I feel like one time he’s going to jump scare me by materialising directly behind me.

I love this. It's the side of Minthara a lot of people haven't seen - she'd take an arrow, bullet or blade for you once you have her trust.
One of the proposed Instagram sketches that I promised to finish. Minthara being protective on my TAV ❤️🥺

Excited. Anxious. Happy.
It’s amazing to be here.
It's always an odd feeling the night before #TheGameAwards -- our team has worked for almost an entire year on this show. So many amazing creators have come from around the world to share their work.
Some of them are nervous. Unsure. But hopefully you LOVE what you see.

PSA - healing a downed party member gets them back on their feet, and is usually more efficient than helping them. That should be a last resort if no healing is available.
Sometimes it’s best to let them take another hit rather than healing them when they have a handful of hp.
