Certains joueurs sur Metacritic et Steam décrivent volontiers une réussite critique et un chef-d'œuvre, citant notamment la richesse du récit, la personnalisation et les interactions avec les personnages non joueurs.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« I absolutely love Baldur’s Gate 3; the more progress I make, the more hooked I become. Every moment I’m not playing Baldur’s Gate 3, I wish I was… so let me wrap this up — go play Baldur’s Gate 3! It’s a defining RPG that masterfully blends all that’s brilliant about D&D into an equally convenient and engaging video game best suited for four wide-eyed adventurers. »
« Baldur's Gate 3 is the most successful and authentic take on D&D in the tabletop franchise's 50-year history. Its complexity and size might be daunting for novices, but the breadth and depth of Baldur's Gate 3's world make this a once-in-a-generation achievement. »
« Baldur’s Gate 3 is an impossibly good RPG made with a great deal of passion and skill. While there are some last minute issues to iron out, Larian Studios has delivered an adventure beyond our wildest imaginations. »
« Baldur's Gate 3 is a gold standard for RPGs, setting the bar incredibly high for future games in the genre - and it's something I know I'll be coming back to time and time again in the future. With a cast of fleshed-out, fully realised characters; tactical turn-based combat that presents an opportunity to stop, think and plan your attack strategically; and a dizzying amount of customisable choices, BG3 is truly a roleplayer's dream. »
« With interconnected stories, brilliant writing, fascinating characters, and a living, breathing world full of choices and consequences, Baldur's Gate 3 sets the standard for today's RPGs. You owe it to yourself to experience it. »
« Classic RPG done to perfection. Greatly written, full of living characters, incredibly free, supported by excellent mechanics taken from Dungeons & Dragons. Sometimes it throws too much at you, other times it doesn't quite keep up, but even so it's a groundbreaking, unforgettable success and a definite candidate for game of the year. »
« Throughout the entirety of my runtime, I felt transported, compelled to help find a way to save myself and the companions I had grown to love over time. And it’s a world I don’t want to leave, at least not yet. Baldur’s Gate 3 is, simply put, the greatest RPG I’ve ever played. »
« Larian Studios has made something truly incredible, and even as the studio continues to fine-tune and polish with post-launch patches, Baldur’s Gate 3 feels like something absolutely worth playing now, and even more in the future. Baldur’s Gate 3 is a legendary RPG, and one that anyone with a love of storytelling, strategizing, or just thirsty for a few fantasy companions should take the time to experience. »

« An absolute masterpiece. The story, the graphics, the RNG, the customization, the music, the NPC interactions. I have almost 1,240 hours of playtime in this game and it truly never gets old for me. Each race/class has different cinematics and a slightly different playthrough. The world Larian created is phenominal. Of course, I'm biased because I love everything Larian touches. I've played good playthroughs, evil and Dark Urge (Durge). I personally enjoy the good playthroughs more as it's more engaging vs murder hobo. I play this solely on PC with a 4090, AMD Ryzen 9800 X3D and 64GB of RAM with graphics to max. This is my favorite game of all time. »
« Baldur's Gate 3 is such a great game I have it for Steam, PS5 and physical copy for PC & PS5. It's a DnD type game, if you dont like strategy games you will kind of like this game, I am one of those people. The great thing about BG3 is that it plays like DnD so you can kill or save everything if the story allows it. The issue is you can't do everything you want even though the dev's accounted for alot of what you could do. Gameplay, is the same as any other fantasy strategy game out the difference is it all comes from DnD IP so if you like DnD and want to see your character in game format you can do that here. If you're not a DnD player you can still have alot of fun with all the options you can do throughout the game in combat and out. save who you like or just murder everyone. The major issue you can run into if you're like me is if you make a selfish character most options wont account for it. For instance the Grove which is one of the first big story spots in Act 1. I wanted to kill everyone by pinning both sides against each other but when I did and killed everyone the story still counts me as the Absolute even though I didn't join nor said I would follow the Absolute story line. This happens alot but if you choose any other path other then selfish you'll have a good time. BG3 is definitely a great game to buy at full price but if you don't want that you can always wait for a sale. »
« got to baldurs gate, wheres the other three. i be balding on my gate till i three »
« I had very high expectations for the game and was disappointed in pretty much every regard, from not being free in distributing character stats to the gameplay and overall look of the game almost nothing about it appeals to me and it certainly isnt at all comparable with actual 5th edition dnd. I know that the limitations of this being a ready made game would lead to some differences and less depth and if that was it it would be fine but the choices made in how you can interact with the world feel so incredibly lazy and sometimes just plain unrewarding/unfun sours me greatly on this. Overall this game being rated so highly makes me sad as it means we have settled for mediocrity... »
« I loved the versatility of the story and gameplay. I especially love the customization of the characters, and mods increase the fun. Props to the devs for adding mod support. »
« Where to start, the world, the characters, the voice over of 100s of characters. The RPG depth. Ye there are some minor nitpicks like the perfomance tanking in Act 3, the hunderds of useless items and containers and here and there some illogical dialogues in due to some quest chains overlapping. Other than that i think this is a must play for any gamer into turn based RPGs. »
