I still have to find the time to complete this game one day.

I think the biggest draw toward BG3 is the replay-ability!

I think I had 200+ hr on my first play through, but I made decisions, that I won't say for spoiler reasons, that cut off multiple entire story lines that I have read are another ~80hrs + of playtime! Super cool, in my opinion.

The players actions CHANGE the world, many games have strived for this, although few have achieved. BG3 achieved!

I really want to do a durge run, but haven’t yet because I want to play BG1 first so it’ll hit more.

I had completely discounted ever playing a story-driven game like an RPG in early access. And now I've played BG3, and I know there's enough systemic nonsense that I'll be lined up for day 1 of their early access for their next game.
