The more annoying aspects of modern gaming are completely absent in Baldur's Gate 3.

I'm really tempted to buy it, but I have little time to play nowadays. It seems like the kind o game that you need to invest time to enjoy.

I've played it for 50 hours and I'd estimate I'm about half way through. So you are right. Though I've enjoyed every second of those hours. Also if you're constantly so busy you can't play a game or have you time, you're definitely living life wrong.

Have you ever heard of Capitalism?

I work most of the day and when I finish I have little time to share between studies, chores, family, partner, friends and games. Maybe during the weekends I can play more but I don't have the time I had during uni.

Edit: Fuck I'm mad with the

you’re definitely living life wrong.

Pay me a salary and I'll stop wasting my time going to work so I can go play games.

Hard to get context across in a post, this was only intended as a playful jab. I know all too well the consequences of aging and how it sucks your time away. Though I got divorced sometime ago and my (adult) kids live with me. I work full time but from home, the time I save on the commute allows me time to cook etc and not having to be up as early allows me to stay up later at night. But because of this isolation I don't really get out much There's no "other half" and friends are in short supply, no co-workers to hang out with in my free time. Which leaves me plenty of time for video games. Now is this a good trade off! I don't think so, would much prefer to be in your shoes.
